Here I am, infront of the Broken down shack.

I walk inside and see all of the bottles of chemicals that are suppose to hold endorphins to relive stress for the 'better ones'

I thought that I might be able to get more tokens that way, I am running out.. after all...

This small 20'20ft shack is my only safe haven with no cameras. "AHHH-!" *bang* I knew people were nosey, but this nosy?? Don't your think that's a bit excessive' I thought as I picked up one of the bottles and poured it into another one seeing if that 6th grade experiment I did 7 years ago might reclaim itself.

I was desperate.

Flashback

"My science experiment is seeing if you add something that had a certain percentage on it to see if it would change the precent in the water!"
I said in my always cheerful voice as a poured some water with baking soda into some plain tap water that I filled up 15 minutes before waiting for the judges to walk around the gym to where I was.

i remembered being incredibly nervous even though I hid it with a smile, I hid my emotions well. Or so I thought.

"Look!!" I shouted excitedly at the judges showing how the powdery drink went into the normal water.

"I'm sorry sonny, but that isn't exactly how it works.."

My smile dropped like a pin dropping to the floor as all eyes were now on me.

"But.." I said in a quivering voice, threatening to cry as I stood still. "The powder transfered... Didn't it..?"

I asked them, even though it was more directed to myself.

"No honey.." one of the woman with a clipboard which was an assumed judge said standing next to A man with a scowl.

"Aren't you supposed to be in advanced classes??" The man hissed towards my direction even though it felt like he was asking another man next to him.

"He's only 12." The woman said standing up for me.

I was humiliated.

"Yeah, a 12 year old advanced 6th grader."

He emphasized that last word more than he needed too to get his point across.

"Dear" the woman said now facing me with a sympathetic but disappointed expression. "I want to see you in the counselors office after the fairs over. Alright?"

She attempted to say in a sweet voice.

It was sweet, but sickeningly.

"O-okay!" I tried to say in a proud voice with a smile to miserably hide my annoyance and shame for myself and the situation.

end of flashback

'that was humiliating' I chuckled a bit to myself, remembering my 6th grade self was. A horrible experience.

I still did it anyways.

I continued to pour the chemicals into the attempted new steroids for the betters.

I swear this stuff is getting less edible by the minute.
