Chapter 1
“Deem’ wake up, you’re going to be late” It’s a good thing she said it from a far or I probably wouldn’t have heard her. That was my mum; she was a designer you see so she was hardly at home ALWAYS ON business trips. I Stretched and look at my reflection in the mirror. Dull grey eyes, caramel skin and a light brown puff ball. That was what I saw staring back at me. I walked into my ensuite bathroom and done what I had to do. Brushed my teeth, had a shower and creamed my skin. After I had done all of that, I got dressed into my SpongeBob hoodie, Boyfriend jeans and SpongeBob crepz. (It’s non-school uniform btw)Now for my hair. I straightened my front fringe and wet the rest so it came out curly. Perfecta. Now for the finishing touch, I placed my hearing aid carefully in my ear. Yes, I’m part deaf. I can hear perfectly fine...if you’re at least a few feet away from me. But that’s without my hearing aid.
I made my way downstairs in search of my mum.
“MAA! MAMA!” No reply. I heard noise coming from the kitchen. I quickly made my way to the kitchen to find the dogs I have grown to love. My 17 year old twin brothers, Shamar and Shamari. And Snap my Doberman dog.
“Where’s mum?” I asked while taking a packet of digestives chocolate biscuits out of the cupboard.
“I dunno.” They replied together. They have a habit of doing that. I turnt around to see them pushing food in their mouths...At the same time.
“Right.” I took £20 off the kitchen counter and kissed both Shamar and Shamari on the cheek. I left the house and called Kenzie to let her know that I was on my way. I sat down once I reached the bus stop. I saw a group of boys walking my way. I turnt my hearing aid off. I didn’t want to hear their nonsense. I took my phone out to see I had a text from Kenzie it said:
“Mum wants to drop me off so I’ll meet you at the gates. I’ll be there in 20 minutes.
Kenz x”
The time was now 8:00 am. I got up and carried on walking down the main road. I could hear someone calling me from afar. I didn’t want to turn around though. I turn’t my hearing aid back on. I turnt around to see that the group of boys had now stopped walking and one of them was running up to me. He motioned to me that I should come closer to him. Why should I? If you’ve ran that far you can run rest of the way. I leaned against the wall. He ran up to me and sighed.
“Didn’t you hear me calling you babes?” He asked. I pointed at my hearing aid. He nodded.
“Sorry. I turnt it off.” He looked at me as if I was crazy. “Yeah...well can I help you? Cos I need to get to school.”
“What school do you go to babes?”
“Stock academy.” Butters name alie?
“Oh I go there to.”
“Oh I’ve never seen you.” We carried on walking.
“Yeah I’m in the six forms. What’s your name babe?”
“Deem.”
“Is that short for something?”
“Yeah it is.”
“What is it short for?”
“That’s for me to know and for you to find out.” I smiled at him.
“Right. So how old are you Deem?”
“14.” I walked into Greggs. I was STARVING.
“Oh so you’re in Year 10”
“Well done. Can I have a chicken bake please?” I gave the lady the money and walked out.
“Aint you gonna ask me for my name and my age?” I stopped walking and looked at him.
