I did it. I finally convinced my parents to let me attend Clairmont High School.I was born deaf, it ran in the family. I grew up going to Julep High School, school of the deaf. Ive always wanted to go to a public school for the hearing. Billy's parents let him go when he was in 6th grade and hes attended since.
Me and Billy were bestfriends, we did everything together. When he moved to public school we started to grow apart. Now 4 almost 5 years later id be going to public school. Billy said hed be by my side the whole time but i have a different feeling.
I was told hearing people are mean and rude by my brother Zach but how bad can they be. If they are rude its not like i can hear them right?
Its august 22 and i start school tomorrow, for the first time in years im laying in bed worried. Its 3:49 and im scared of what tomorrow will bring me.
----------------------
"Hello kyle, hows your day been?" My mother signs what the principal say but i can read her lips.
"Fine, hows your day been?" I sign to her.
-------
After about an hour of talking with Mrs. Quinn i was asked if i wanted someone to show me around.
Now im in the hall with Billy, he doesnt act any different. Maybe i was just worried for nothing?
My first three periods are on the second floor, than fourth and fifth periods are on the third floor than my final period is on the first floor. My locker is on the third floor, but i dont think ill need anything out of it.
-----------------
Its third period and billy left me alone, kids would speak to me but look away so i couldnt understand anything. I put my head phones in and gave up trying to talk to anyone.
--------
Fifth period.
Someone tapped on my shoulder.
"Are you in my way" i think he said but he spoke so fast.
"Can you repeat that a little slower?" Once i signed to him he looked at me funny than pushed me.
"Open your ears." His lips read
I would if i could...i would if i could.
"I cant hear you, jackass!" I usuallh dont sign rude but he shoved me for no reason.
"Learn to speak english or dont speak at all" with that he kicked my bag and walked away.
I grab my things and head to the bathroom. This year doesnt seem like its gonna be fun.
In the bathroom there was two other boy's one with an afro and the other with pokemon gauges. It looked like they were talking about something important because afro was yelling.
I fix my hair in the mirror and reorganize my things. My mother text me...
"Hows the day been?" Thats something ive always loved about her, she has her caring moments but than its back to normal.
"Talk to you when i get home" i turn off my phone and look up in the mirror and both guys are now looking at me.
One of them is saying somsthing but i cant read their lips.
"Am i in the way?" I sign and they stare.
I hate when people stare, im not that insucure but when they stare at me i feel like a freak show.
I turn around and write on my notebook paper.
"Please stop staring" i hold the notbook up at them.
Afro says something to pokemon in the ear. Of course his lips are hidden.
"I like your beanie" pokemon says.
I smile.
"I like your plugs" i sign but he shakes his head.
"I dont understand?" He lips
"I like your plugs xD" i write on my paper and show him.
I hear the ring of the bell, i collect my things and walk to lunch.
At lunch i found a table in the corner, billy sat at a table with his friends but when i walked towards him he shook his head.
I didnt feel the need to get a tray, i pull out my phone and turn Of Mice & Men on. I cant hear what theyre saying but i can hear the back ground instrments. I can hear his scream bearly but i can hear it.
Everyone likes music, but music has helped me through so much stuff. I cant hear them sing and i cant sing along but i can feel it.
I look up from my phone and start writing poetry, i know it seems stupid but poetry lets me express myself.
I feel vibration from the table, i look up and theres afro and pokemon. Behind them is another boy. He has a My Chemical Romance tee on and black skinny jeans on.
I flip the page in my notebook and start writibg.
"Hey?" I slide the book over to afro.
"Hey, i hope its okay that we sat with you?"
"Yea its fine."
The boys across feom me started laughing and talking but the one that caught my attention the most was the quiet lonly like boy with the flippy hair.
"You okay?" I sign to him. He just nodds.
Wait he replied?!!?
He knew what i said?!?!
The bell rang and the school day completed, i only have lunch with the boys that sat at my table.
-----------------
I grab my skateboard from my locker and start skating home.
Of course i have to stop and look both ways before crossing any road because i cant hear people around me.
Once at home i go to my room, my parents arnt home until about 6 every night so i have 3-4 hours alone everyday.
I turn on music and start cleaning, i know im a loser. I clean when im bored, i clean when im sad or mad. I just clean.
The lap flickers relating thag someone is at the door. I look out the window and to my suprise its afro.
"Yea?" I sign but forgot he doesnt know how to sign.
I nod for him to come in.
"Uhm this is yours" he handed me my notebook with all my contacts and informatiom in it.
So thats how he knew where i lived.
"Thanks" i sign, theres no poiny but thats how i talk so...
----------------
Its now 6:30 and my mothers cooking dinner.
"So about school?" She signed
I ended up telling her everything and breaking down in the process. From Billy to the kid pushing me down up to bryan coming over.
I found out his name because he erote it in my book and said .
"Call if you need me..." i laughed when i seen call was scribbled through.
"Text*"
-------------
Okay i have so many story ideas so i had to make this a story xD i thought it was different and no ones done it so why not?!?
~Lots Of Love, Madi
