"Miss Genius, just help me with my goddamn homework because Daniel and I are going in the party club again!" Martha acted like a bossy Queen.

"Martha I told you I can't do all this, I'm still making the group project and the deadline is tomorrow... TOMORROW!" I please her while organizing my sheets. "You've been saying this ten times in a row since Daniel wants to invite you in that useless club party." I added.

"Oh please Alexa just do this for the last time. Just for one last time?" She frowned and glared at me."

I sighed. "Okay, just make sure-"

"ALRIGHT THANK YOU SO MUCH!" She didn't finish my sentence. She grabbed her bag and got away with her hot red Bodycon dress. That style she bring must be for her drunk boyfriend Daniel. I stared at the door that Martha walked out with. I turned my head to the right and looked at the clock. Oh crap it's six o'clock in the evening. I haven't done the group project yet! I'm the top in my class but that doesn't mean I'm the one who is going to doing it all. I'm a soft hearted person that I almost couldn't say no to almost everyone. I'm the girl who's always trap in my dorm with someone's filthy homeworks and projects. I also included mine. Not just Martha's works, there are also eight different grade students that wanted to make me as their servant as well. I don't even know what are their lessons sometimes. As a result of that I study their freaking lessons through videos on YouTube one by one. Every evening I do night shifts on a convenience store that take Miles to be there.

I can take a break for just three hours. That is mentally insane! It's too short. When will I just relax?

"Alexa, could you do this whole page for me?"

"Alexa, your grades are running very low. I must give you extra homework."

"Alexa, you didn't follow the instructions. I want you to repeat this whole entire thing again in my paper."

"Alexa, would you mind if you do this essay right here? You must write three thousand words about the story earlier and then you're all settled."

"Alexa! You answered my homework wrong, repeat them all again and work harder you moron! Your excuses are unnecceptable."

"Alexa, are you out of your mind? I just want you to draw a sketch of a field. As simple as that!"

"Alexa, I thought you are the top of our class. You cannot even answer some of my math questions correctly. I am only forty-eight out of fifty. It must be perfect!"

"Alexa, all of the deadlines are tomorrow seven in the morning sharp."

"Alexa, Alexa, Alexa, Alexa, Alexa... ALEXA!!!"

I'm loosing out of control and opened my eyes once again. I am in a total devastation, and I don't know how long will it last. I manifested that it's my rest time. I'm at the bed laying down, and the surroundings are perfectly in silence. I looked at my room with my body forcely applied on the mattress. I suddenly heard a ringtone on my phone. I got up and lugged it. I smiled wildly with my happy cheeks when I saw the dirty cracked screen. I finally got a call, and it was my parents. I am glad they called because they are my only happiness. I am at peace if I'm with them. I will always do my best to never let them down. I accepted the call and laid down on my bed."

"Hey there little pumpkin. How's it going? We want you to be here just for a visit." My parents are joyously cherishing me.

My eyes are in tears because I always wanting to be with them. Unluckily my foolish mind are pretty busy due to answering other students' works.

"Not right now Mama and Papa, but soon. I'm still pretty busy doing my stuffs, but I would really really want to be with you!" I snuggled with them through video chat.

"There's a good news darling, your Mama knows how to bake! Let us know if you're coming because she will bake you a strawberry cake for dessert! That would be terrifically tasty!" Papa joyfully said.

"And also, we are going to the Dolly Park. That is your most favorite place since your childhood. You are still a beautiful baby to us Alexa." Mama said. "Oh my God you remembered! I can't wait to be there with you guys. I just wish everything is going back to normal again."

"Your Papa and I can't wait either! You should rest young lady. You have a tight schedule later."
"Alright Mama, have a great day with you both!"

"Goodbye! We love you!" Mama and Papa estaticly ended the call with a love that strengthens me refreshingly.

I've been doing these routines for months. Everyday my agenda is full. Their favorite name is "Alexa" when they needed something. Their worst name is also "Alexa" when I needed them. It is a challenging task to say no. It's always my fault. I am remarkably wiped out for this. I went back to my dorm and dropped all of my articles and kneeled down to the floor. I touched my sweaty palms with my drained fingers to the ground and sobbed. I am beated. I'm passionate about loosing everyone and I really wish to be in peace forever.

"I just willingly want to get away with these monsters trying to pull me away from happiness. I want to be in peace for life." I whispered while my heart is in affliction.

"I want to... Enjoy my life with a person who doesn't take me down. Unfortunately... I don't have somebody." I muttered while my head is deranged. I feel betrayed. The world is full of freaks and I cannot take this anymore. I'm almost giving up on myself. There is something that's been missing in my heart, and that is a friend. I never had a friend that can be the same vibe as me. I had friends before, but it didn't work out. Someone knocked on my door and opened it straight away, and it was the dopey Martha yet again. She is also giving me tons of papers and wishing me to answer them all again.

"Hey Alexa Morales... I know I said that you answer my works for the last time yesterday, but now it is the very last time to please help me with these paper sheets because Daniel wanted to have another night out with me." Martha said. I stand up and looked at her weakly.

"Hey are you alright? You seem like you are crying." Martha looked at me in the eye with confusion.

"Martha I just-."

"Look Alexa, I don't care what kind of excuse that is, but our date with Daniel is way more important than your silly problems. So don't give me that look and give me a return tomorrow morning. You are my only hope sissy, and I will never ruin that hope in yours." She gave voice to me with a fierce cat in her mean face. She pushed me with her papers on my chest and strolled away. I'm even more stressed out than before considering that unmannerly lady roared at me and thinking that she's precise. She's thinking that I'm sluggish. I expedite the process by answering her demanding homeworks and went to work. A few customers only arrived, and just they bought some ramen and beer.

"This is a soundless night for me." I muttered.

My job is finally over. I grabbed my bag and opened the door. It is all dark and quiet. I don't think much about being kidnapped. I have a feeling that I'm safe and unsafe simultaneously. There are no people around. The only lights is in the long tunnel, and that's where I should supposed to go. Unfortunately I don't have any vehicle. I must walk towards it. While I'm walking, I can hear the sound of my heels, it is really loud and satisfying. The echos of my heels are cooperating in the gigantic tunnel. I am in the middle of the road inside the tunnel with nobody. The tunnel is color oatmeal that is added with some unsatisfactory lights in the sides. I can finally see the end of it. I take a heed manifestation, and it is really mysterious. At the end of the tunnel is a very bright light. I can't even see what's on the outside, it is just a very dazzling light.

Should I enter?
