Britney was the most popular girl in school. Her parents would buy her everything, even if she didn’t need it. She would show off everything she got the next day at school. She had the most expensive car to the most expensive rat looking Chihuahua.
Her life was perfect according to others. She had a pretty boy as a boyfriend and every girl wanted to be like her. But what they didn’t know was that Britney’s world was falling apart little by little. Everything was wrong with her and her family. They weren’t the happy family everyone thought they were.
Her family’s business was in debt, and soon they would be bankrupted. Her parents didn’t have money to pay their bills so they had to start barrowing money from others. When people started to notice that they weren’t paying back, they stopped lending them money.
At Britney’s school it wasn’t going to good either. When her boyfriend and friends found out her family was bankrupted they stopped talking to her as if she never existed. She tried telling them that everything was going to get better but they didn’t listen.
Her parents had to sell her car, her expensive purses, and her ugly looking Chihuahua to get some money. Britney had to rid the bus now. She was not happy with the idea of riding the bus she had never ridden the bus before in her life, her parents would always make their shofar taker her everywhere.
She was scared to ride the bus, she didn’t know what it was like. That first day she rode the bus was the last. When she got on the bus everyone turned and looked at her. They couldn’t believe she was riding their bus.
Britney sat down as fast as she could hoping no one saw her, but they did. She could hear them whispering about her. They would talk about how she had no money anymore and how all her friends had left her because she was poor now. Britney pretended she couldn’t hear and didn’t say anything.
That was the last time she rode the bus. She would walk to school some days, but when she was too tired to walk she wouldn’t go to school at all. Britney stayed home more than she went to school. That’s when her school started noticing something was wrong with her.
Britney’s school contacted her parents and asked them why she was missing so much school. Her parents didn’t even know that she wasn’t going to school. Britney’s parents confronted her about not going to school, but it didn’t turn out so good. Their conversation turned into a bad argument.
Britney accused her parents of not caring about her, and all that mattered to them was their money. Her parents tried to make her understand that what she was saying was not true, but she didn’t want to listen. She kicked them out of her room and locked her door. She cried for hours not letting anyone come in.
She thought about all her friends that left her because she had no money, about her boyfriend she thought loved her, but only loved her money. What she thought about the most was all the kids that made fun of her at school. She couldn’t take it anymore, she was tired of everything and of everyone making fun of her. What hurt her the most was the fact that she thought her parents didn’t even love each other anymore.
Her parents were having problems, and there was nothing she could do to fix it. When the money problems started growing that’s when her parents started fighting the most. Her mom would accuse her father of cheating and her, dad would do the same. But that wasn’t the case. They were tired of all the problems and argued about any little thing.
When Britney got upset she would lock herself in her room and she would think about all the negative things in her life. She never once thought about the good things she had in life. Like the fact that she was a healthy young woman and had a family that loved her.
One day Britney couldn’t take it anymore. One of her classmates made fun of the clothes she was wearing. Telling everyone in class she went shopping at Goodwill because that's all she could afford. Britney felt miserable and embarrassed.
Not knowing what else to do she ran out of the classroom. She headed to one of the girl’s bathrooms to cry. She walked into one of the bathroom stalls and waited for everyone to leave. Once everyone left, she came out and locked the bathroom door.
She stared at herself in the bathroom mirror. She felt nothing but sorry for herself. Britney was the laughingstock of her whole school for months now. It was too much for her already.
Filled with sadness and anger she started throwing anything she could find into the mirror. It broke to pieces. She picked up a piece held it in her hand and stared at it for a couple of minutes. She thought about all her pain and how it would all go away if she didn’t have to feel it anymore.
Only thinking about herself and not about what her action could cause anyone else, she took that broken piece of mirror and cut herself. She cut herself as many times as she could until she couldn’t anymore. She feel to the floor and waited to die so she wouldn’t have to feel any more pain.

Britney thought that by taking her life everything would be so much better, but it wasn’t. Her parents were destroyed when they found out that their daughter had committed suicide. They didn’t understand how she could of done that to herself and to them. She was their everything, the person they loved the most in their lives.
Britney's death affected her parents so much that the only thing that made them feel better was spending time with one another. They realized how dumb they were arguing about money and meaningless things. They decided to put all the fighting and arguing behind and move forward with their lives. Their daughter was everything to them and for her they were going to make their marriage work and bring back up their family business. Working hard and not giving up.
