She was gonna go to school for her first few lessons, then leave, go to the counselling session.

So for that reason, she needed a note from her mother to be able to like show it to the teacher and be like, let me leave.

So her mum wrote her a note, she gave her a kiss goodbye and then her mum went off to work.

Anna got herself ready for school, walked to school as normal and did her lessons.

She went to that counselling session, everything was good, everything was normal.

She came back home, she made herself a little bit of food and as her food was cooking, she just gave her mum a ring.

Her mum actually didn't answer at the time because she was in a meeting.

She just texted Anna just saying like,

in a meeting, give you a call back later.

So anyway, Anna had made her food and she just took it up to her room to eat it and that's just kind of what she did every night.

She just kind of took herself up off to her room and did her own thing, you know?

But just before 5pm that evening, there was a knock at Anna's door and her father went and opened it and there there was a young boy around Anna's age and he was asking for Anna.

Her father asked this boy's name and he gave him it and so he called up to Anna and he was like, Anna, so-and-so's here.

And she was like, what?

She came down to the door and she was very surprised to see this boy here because she didn't really know him.

I think she knew of him.

They were acquaintances, but he had absolutely no reason to be knocking on her door.

They were not this close at all.

So she was really confused and kind of weirded out, but she went over to the boy anyway and she spoke to him, asked him what he was there for.

Her father remembered the two of them kind of whispering a little bit back and forth and he kind of took the hint that he wasn't wanted there and that the kids didn't want him to hear what they were saying so he just left the room, left them to chat for a little while.
