He may have been our friend, but we were trespassing. We knew what we were doing was wrong and probably against the law, it shouldn't have mattered if he had left the back door open or not , but it felt necessary. If we hadn't stumbled on that video diary of his we would never have understood why he looked so depressed, so distraught and defeated when he caught people talking about him behind his back. We've all been bullied at some point, but we got over it, we became more confident as a result. We became better people. But I think it's turned him cold. He used to be the most decent guy I ever knew. I'm sure he had even had counselling at one point, but clearly that didn't help.

Luckily Jen is a genius. If she hadn't been able to copy all of his entries onto a data stick and get us out before he had got back from walking his dog, who knows how he might have reacted...

Author guidance for This story

From halfway through chapter 6, the characters start talking in the past tense. The reason for the previous chapters being in the present tense is because they are all in video diary form. I will try to keep the story understandable despite its growing complexity in tense form from chp. 6 onwards. Enjoy! :D
