Another Dimension

Chapter 1-Morning routine

Mom, Dad I'm sorry. I would never do that again. "When we called you, you should've responded to us," said my mom. Both beating a 10-year-old with a belt, whose leather was worn out, who didn't pay attention when they called me.
"Ahh!!", that nightmare again. "Wake up Maya it's time to get up. You have school today. After you finished, wake your sister up" said my dad who's got to get to work as soon as I left our house for school. I got up and went to the bathroom like how a zombie would wake up from its grave. My face is oily as always and full of pimples on both sides of my cheeks even on my forehead. After brushing my teeth, I went to take a shower. Wow, I love how the hot water covers my whole body, in the early mornings.

Coming out of the bathroom is like a disaster to me because you get the chills that make your teeth shitter like how every old people do.

After dressing up and waking my sister up. I left the room to get my breakfast which was -my usual tea. The tea was steamy as always. So, I decided to comb my hair and put on some cream. By the time I was about to leave the room I got a glance of my little brother, Zach aka Mr. Adorable.

His cuteness was something that always tempts me to pull his cheeks. Always behaving like a baby. He even runs very fast. I know it's hard to believe a cute kid running very fast. Well this time what tempted me was, that he was laughing while he was sleeping. I felt so tempted. But I decided to settle, by tracing a heart on his soft cheek.

I saw my sister coming out of the bathroom soaking wet and I reminded her to wake our brother up. She started giving me that grumpy face that makes any person run away from her.

My mom started giving lectures about drinking cold tea while I was grabbing the cup. It was perfect for my taste. But my mom doesn't know the art of drinking a perfect temperature tea. She only likes drinking tea in extremely hot conditions.

After finishing my tea, I left for the bus stop. I was waiting for my usual 6:50 am bus. The bus came a minute late. Whatever I really don't give a damn about that.

I entered the bus and caught my usual seat which my friends always keep protected. We started our usual gal pals talk. My bestie Shreya, who I knew for 5 years, started talking about her usual favorite TV series. And my other friend Amy, who I knew for 2 years, started talking about the great scientific discoveries and stuff. This girl and I have almost the same taste. At my next stop, my other bestie, Jamie, who I knew for 4 years, entered the bus with her flashing glamorous style. She sat on a seat next to us. We started talking about the new events that were about to take place in our school. We had no idea what the event was all about but we just liked to share our imaginations.

The bus kept on stopping due to heavy traffic. I saw my classmate, Alisha, sitting a few seats forward. She gave me a hi with her flashy smile and I gave her a hi back. I just love her flashy smile, it is something that I would treasure about her forever.

We reached our school on time. We left the bus by creating a huge line. As soon as I came down, I saw Alisha waiting for me. I told my friends we will meet after class. I asked her why she was waiting. She told me, "I just want to know about the portions for our exam". I started staring at her, trying to remember the portions. "We have the first five chapters for our science exam, the first eight chapters for our math exam, and....". "Wait, wait, wait Maya. I need to write it down." Then she started noting it in her black and white journal.

When we reached our class, we parted ways to our seats. There, waiting next to my seat, was both my friends Lime and Ruth. Today, was my chance to sit next to Ruth. I always felt that Lime always had a grudge against me because we both liked Ruth more compared to liking each other. I never knew why but I always felt that way, maybe because I befriended someone popular.

Well, the bell has rung to start our day.
