Verdure

Its a Monday morning and I've woken up once again to see Cheri and Beri pecking my nose.

Cheri and Beri are two little unusual looking birds that always wake me up on school days. They tend to come through my window early in the morning, if it's lock they always find a way to enter. When they've realized that I'm awake the birds start chirping amongst themselves as if they're having a conversation with each other. It's actually quite amazing to watch.Then they fly off out of my window.

"See you tomorrow morning" I said more to myself.

I got out of bed and went straight to the bathroom then follow the normal steps

Brush my teeth,

Shower,

Blow dry my hair,

Dress up, then

Text Jake to pick me up.

I made my way downstairs to grab an apple, i'm not such a big fan of breakfast cause once I step outside the daylight seems to get me energized.

Mom doesn't even bother with breakfast she knows I won't eat it, that's why she always left a bowl of mix fruits on the kitchen table as a quick snack.

Before stepping out  I grabbed my 2 notebooks that I've managed to use  for every class since someone decided it was  quite funny to hide my binder along with my bag. Good thing I had my phone in my pocket.

Its been 10 minutes since I've text Jake, he should be here any minute.

Just before opening up the door I heard him beep his car horn. Right on time.

Jake was strangely quiet as I sat besides him. He didn't even offer me a muffin which I would've refused anyways.He just sat there and waited till I was buckled up and started making his way up to school. The car ride was dead, Probably he's in a bad mood cause its Monday. Minutes passed and a awkward tension started spreading throughout the car.

Glancing at Jake I asked if he was alright.

He responded with a nod.

But I knew my best friend all to well,

There were little formation of  sweat beads going across his forehead. he was biting his bottom lip, he had his attention straight ahead and looked as If he had just token number two in  his pants. All signs that tells me somethings up .

" why are you lieing to me? Your my best friend, I know when somethings wrong with you."

He ignored me, Jake ignored me as if I wasn't their. Did I do something wrong?

You know what since he won't reply, I'll just drop the conversation and focus on how to escape the bullies today, but that doesn't mean that i'll forget about it, later today after school i'm planning on bringing it back up.

We arrived at school and  Jake was the first one out of the car as usual, he came around to help me unbuckle my seat belt. I always had a difficulty unbuckling those things.

We left his car and was heading for the double doors that led into the school. By now Jack would say "Be careful" or "good luck " but all he did was give a peace sign with a nervous smirk and walked away.

  The last four class went by smoothly everyone wasn't in the mood to bother me today.What a relief it was. Only one more class left.

Its now lunch and unfortunately I can't find Jake anywhere. How can he do this to me he always picked a seat for us to sit at and hes not here, I'll be sitting alone for the first time in my high school years. This officially makes me a loner.
