Alora

CHAPTER 2

"How can it be
that my memories
are more alive
than I am..?"

Third Person POV;
              ***************************

"I GUESS YOU DIDN'T MEAN WHAT YOU WROTE IN THAT SONG ABOUT MEEEEEEE!!!!" A voice echoed from the bathroom. Everyone in the room was already used to her "singing" while she was bathing, and for someone who hasn't been had broken before, she knew a lot of heartbreak songs. She took out her phone to change the song and noticed the time... "Shit" she muttered. Her beautiful bath time had come to an end. She hurriedly threw on a t-shirt, some pants and a jacket (she was always cold for some reason).. after tying her shoelaces she sped off to class,"Bye guys, see you at lunch!!"... "Bye Alora.. have a nice day" her roommates chorused. They laughed at how she was the most disorganized yet always had her life together.

    Alora, known as Lora to her friends, was a first year medical student. She was known for her smile she'd flash at everyone including strangers. "A ray of sunshine" if you will. As scatterbrained as she was she was also really smart. So smart she got into med school at school at age fourteen. She was so friendly that even the lecturers never got pissed when she was late to class, they'd just shake their head and allow her in. As friendly as she was she didn't have any friends in her class so she always sat alone.

    Biology class didn't seem to want to come to an end until it finally did. Then it was time for organic chemistry, "my poor brain" Alora thought as the organic chemistry lecturer walked in . He seemed happy at the student's misery. " Hey, can I sit next to you?" And unfamiliar voice shyly said . She had her hair in two buns.. she was quite short, at least not as tall as Alora, and was definitely bigger than Alora. But her most noticeable features were eyes.. she had siren eyes. One could get lost in them even. Alora was so shocked that someone came to talk to her, she usually did most of the talking. She finally found her tongue, "Yeah of course, let me move over."

   Classes that day went by and by lunchtime little Alora had made a new friend. She introduced the new friend to her roommates at lunch time, "Guys this is Sclera my new friend from class and Sclera these are my roommates. Kiki, Isabella and Penelope." All her roommates were from law school. Alora had ended up in their dorm somehow and didn't want to leave because she loved her roommates. After the introduction the girls got along quite well. Alora was proud of herself. She finally had a friend of her own in class. She always wondered how her life would be when she finally had to move out of the law students dormitory. At least she had a friend of her own.

   After lunch the girls went off to their dorm. Alora and Sclera still had a class for that day so they went back to class. During the class , organic chemistry 2, Alexa wondered to herself.." why are there so many organic chemistrys .. carbon is way too friendly for an element" she laughed out loud at the thought and called the attention of the class to herself. The lecturer threw a hot question at her expecting her to flop it. With a smug look on her face Lora answered the question much more than the lecturer had expected. She sat down proud of herself. Sclera, in shock that she actually got the question right, whispered, "you didn't mention you were a smart one now did you" Alora only giggled at the comment. The class finally came to and end and Lora walked Sclera to her dorm. On her way back to the dorm she called her mother. She always dreaded conversations with her mother. She narrated her entire day to her mother. Her mother didn't say a word. When she was done her mother began to talk about the accomplishments of her little sister. She always compared Alora to her. "Mummy did hear anything I said?" She mumbled while holding back tears, "Are you talking back at me? I don't have time for non-chalant behavior." Her mother said before disconnecting the call.
  Nothing Alora did ever mattered, nothing she did was ever enough for her mother. It hurt her each time it happened. It's almost like her mother wished she never existed. She never spoke about it though. She'd just toss the pain aside and carry on with her life. But for how long could she toss that pain away? How long could she continue to be a ray of sunshine..??
