Pain is a mysterious feeling. Emotional pain that is. But when it's real pain, you normally turn numb. I've come across many horrible problems, but this one hit me hard. It was tragic, it was painful, it felt like being left alone in a dark cave and you couldn't find the the light. It was the first day of middle school, Janey, Gabe and I were hanging out at the bench beside the tree. "Hey Kim, do you want to come over to my house after school?"Janey asked. "Sure, but I'll have to ask my mom first,"I said. "Gabe, you can also come if you want to,"says Janey. "Okay, I have to ask my mom," Gabe says. "If you all can come, meet me at my house at 5:00 sharp," Janey says to Gabe and I. The recess bell rings and we go to class. I ask myself if I think that mom would let me go.Once I realized that Janey and Gabe wasn't in the class with me,I forgot all about going to Janey's house after school. We go inside the classroom and talk to each other.
After awhile Mrs.Martin walks in the classroom with a lot of papers in her hand. "What are those papers for?"asks a girl on the other side of the classroom. "They are for you all,"she says. "Is it a test?"the girl asks. "No, Angelina, why would I give you a test on the first day of school?"asks the teacher. "Oh, well, I didn't think about that,"says Angelina. "These papers are fun papers so you all can do word searches, scrambles and more," the teacher says. She passed out the papers with a smile on her face. I wonder what what was she so happy about. I didn't want to be the nosey one in the entire class so I didn't ask why she was happy.
I looked around and everyone was doing the fun sheets, I wasn't a big fan of them so I just sat in my chair playing with my pencil. I sat in the back of the room because I was tall. I was the tallest in my class and I was taller than my teacher. The teacher sat in the front of the room so she could watch all the students. As I looked up, she looked up too. We looked up at each other, I waited for her to say something to me and then it finally came,"Why aren't you working on your fun sheets, Kim?"she asked me. "I don't like word searches or scrambles, I said. "Well,would you like to do something else?"Mrs. Martin asked me. "Yes, please," I said in a sweet, soft voice. "Well, what would you like to do?"she asked me. "Something that is nice, interesting and colorful," I said. "Well, what is colorful and interesting?"she asked. "Oh, I know, how about drawing, I love to draw,"I said excitedly. "Ok, you can draw, she said with a smile on her face. I got some paper out of the paper container. I got my pencil and started drawing but then I realized that lockers were opening and closing.
"Mrs. Martin?" I asked. "Yes?"she replied. "How many other teachers do we have?"I asked with a worried look on my face. She answered," You have seven more classes,but today you are going to just meet the teachers." I said okay and started back working on my drawing. I think Mrs. Martin was reading a letter or note. It looked like a note that was going home with us when we leave. After I finished my drawing, the rest of the class had just finished their fun sheets. Students, come line up," said Mrs. Martin. "Is it time for lunch?"Angelina asks. "Yes, it is,"says Mrs. Martin. As Mrs. Martin walked out the door, we followed her all the way to the lunchroom. "Sit wherever you want, but there was barely anywhere to sit because all the students in my grade were there, but I spotted Janey and Gabe and sat by them but I could barely sit down because that table was almost full but I managed to get in. "What is your teachers names?" I asked Janey and Gabe. "My teachers name is Ms. Hamilton, says Gabe. "My teachers name is Mrs. Watson,"says Janey. After lunch we meet all of our teachers and got to know them.
After we met all of our teachers we packed up and went home. I asked my mom if I could go to Janey's but he said no because we had to go shopping for some clothes and groceries. I called Janey and told her what happened and she said that it was fine because she had to go to her grandmas. Gabe also said that he couldn't go because he had to go to his uncles. After mom and I came home from shopping, it was 5:30 and I called Janey and Gabe to check on them. Gabe answered but Janey's grandma said that she was in the woods in the tree house. I told Ms.Crane, Janey's grandma, to tell Janey that I just called to check on her. She told me that she would tell Janey that you called. I said okay and said goodbye and hung up the phone. After I called them, I helped mom finish putting up the groceries and then I took a shower. When I got out mom was watching her favorite show. The show was called The Walking Dead. She paused it and took her shower. After mom got out she continued the show and we watched it until it was time to go to bed. When it was time to go to bed I said my prayers and went to bed. My mom came in to kiss me goodnight. I told her goodnight back and as she exited my room I cut me fan on because I got hot. After I cut my fan on I fell straight asleep until the next morning.
