[Life'll go on, but it won't go back to how it used to be. Jess and Mike will keep dating, rubbing their betrayal in Emily's face. Jess will get plastic surgery to fix all her scars. Emily will get a few good internships and work her way to the top. Hannah and Beth will still be dead. Josh... Josh might be dead, too. Their group of friends will fall apart for good. Everything will be shit.]
Hope sucks at making people hopeful.

It's a slap in the face, this mirror. It's what Emily has wanted for years, and it's forever out of reach.]
