12.2 ARCHER
June 16, 2016
There's nothing new, my dad reprimanded and lectured me again not to get close with Sierra. Even on how I explained to him that we are not doing anything wrong. Honestly, I don't get him anymore. He was OK with my previous ex-girlfriends, and he was nice to them, but now that it comes to Sierra; he's really showing his true colors and hostile personality and he's not even trying to hide his disapproval to her. In the end, I just said nothing anymore and I just let him talk and talked, because I know that it's no use if I explain myself again. I never win against him.
Today is Thursday, and three days have passed when Sierra kissed me on the lips. I'm still not over it; I'm still dizzy and seem to be trapped on that memory. I'm still not sure why she did it; I should've been the one to do it first, but I'll never do it without her permission

September 01, 2021I am enraged and frustrated. I'm so fucking pissed off with everything, since I still have found no leads about Sierra's whereabouts. And it was only a few weeks ago when police officials came to my house and urged me to quit intervening in Sierra's case. They're like malevolent spirits in disguise, preventing me from finding Sierra. And now the fucking media is trying to get me an interview about it again as if we're back in the days when people found our story entertaining. Some people are attacking me on social media, accusing me of being insane and telling me to stop digging and waking up the nightmare case of Sierra, which has terrified many Camden residents. But there are still people who are rooting for me but most of them are just a fan of my podcasts. But lately, I've noticed a drop in my following count, and I completely understand why: I've been focusing so much on Sierra's ca

June 25, 2016 "Can you tell me where you're going, honey?" As soon as I descended the stairs, my mother asked. She's dressed to the nines in her stunning ensemble, complete with sunglasses and a luxurious handbag slung over her arms. "Uh… We have a group project to complete." I lied, and when I offered her my phone, she only raised an eyebrow at me before grinning warmly at me. "We'll do it at Mindy's Cafe." I lied once more. "Hmm. You know you can't lie to me, don't you? I know you and your brother so well that I almost understand what you're thinking." She said tenderly. I let out a sigh and cocked my head "I just need to get somewhere.Don't worry, I'm alone and won't be late for dinner." I reassured her and looked at the wall clock, which showed that it was

"Don't leave me again." Only a few words from her, yet they were enough to rock my world.I'm not sure if it's because of the war in my head or if it's just the fact that what I feel for her isn't something as simple as leaving someone in the air. When it comes to Sierra, she makes everything inside of me utterly tricky to understand.She sat back on the floor and tapped the spot next to her, just as she had done when we first came here. I sighed and proceeded slowly towards her, sitting a bit further away from her.Sierra was still and quiet, her gaze fixed on the window. I'm sitting here, nervous and unsure of what I want, and I'm wondering why I'm feeling this way. Isn't this what I'm asking for? To see her again after avoiding her for days? But now that she's here, I'm back to my old self, trying to

June 25, 2016 We stayed in the library for an hour and talked about various topics, including our hobbies, favorite subjects, and almost everything in between. But Sierra revealed something about her family that I had not expected her to share; I had kept my lips shut throughout her story, just listening to her. Sierra did not grow up with her biological parents, and she has never met them. Since the day she was born, Sierra had lived with her grandparents, and when she turned 10, she moved back and forth between her different relatives. I never asked Sierra anymore if she had any knowledge of her parents' place or what were the reason why they abandoned her since I could see in her eyes how difficult it was for her when she told her story, even though she didn't go into details. I'm just relieved that she feels comfortable opening out to me. When she said that, all I could do was embrace her while her te

I just nodded at her, still trying to make sense of what I didn't know about Ever. He's a friend of mine, yet he didn't tell me any of this? But how badly I feel about myself is palpable; does Ever no longer trust me enough to share his thoughts and life decisions with me? Or maybe people change so quickly as we progress along different routes. Perhaps I just need to respect and know his boundaries…As she blabbed, she kept looking into my eyes as she opened the door. "And you have to see hisenormous, thick sketchbook. Ever's artworks should be included on the list of things you should see before you die. Even our classmates—"My brow wrinkled as Sierra completely opened the door, and we both came to a halt when we suddenly saw a girl standing just a few steps away from us. When my eyes flew to the girl's hand, I realized she was clutching a

September 01, 2021 I spent two hours driving back from Sorella City to Camden Town because of excessive traffic. Whenever I think of the email I received from an anonymous person claiming to be Sierra's killer, I'm overcome with a rush of adrenaline that causes my brow to drip with sweat and my heart to thump fast. I didn't hesitate to risk my life once again for Sierra, and I repeated under my breath multiple times that if I see that fucktard again, I'm going to murder him. When I finally arrived at this place, I opened and kicked the door of my car frantically. Even though it's been years since my last visit, my feelings for this place are the same as they were then. By the time twilight arrives at 5:30, I'll be ready to shoot his fucking face. It was already 5 PM when I checked my wristwatch. I'm not sure why I didn't stop in front of the Meadow Woods Library, but there was a part of me that wondered if it had been demolished or something a long time ago. Perhaps

"What do you think? I didn't know you knew about this place since you never informed me—and you never told me you now have a gun." He paused and snapped his fingers, causing me to flinch. "Oh, I should never forget that you are also skilled at leaving things behind, which is probably why you never told me about this and that—maybe they aren't significant enough to tell someone." He spits back and holds his handkerchief between his both hands as he stares at me solemnly.I averted my gaze and sighed. I dragged the thrashing wooden chair at the far end of the room as I looked around the library. It's just a few books left on the shelf, and they've all been infested by termites, along with practically every other wooden element in the room. Various scribbles and doodles have ruined the photographs that made my jaw tighten in annoyance. Although I didn't mind if those people found out about our pla

July 01, 2016We're in the theater room, where students from various strands of the twelfth grade will watch films created by each section of the Arts and Designs strand. Sierra informed me that their movie would compete with other sections of the same genre as theirs, and the winner will receive an award for the best film and, of course, will give them high credits that can help them in college. Their film's theme is romance, and Sierra is one of the key stars as well as one of the people that covered a song for their background music, which she just told me earlier this morning that I didn't have much time to react and congratulate her for having the lead part when the bell suddenly rang and the teachers lead as to the theater room.Sierra and I only had a little time to spend together during the weekdays and even on weekends following that confession because
