Three weeks have passed and I am still not able to control or use my power. Luckily, there was no other accident at least. I started to wonder if it was just pure luck that I managed to do that thing in the canteen. Every time I had Controlling class, I just sat in the back and wasn't paying attention to the class. Why am I even here if I can't do it? At this point, I enjoyed more the basic classes like History or Introduction.
I am on my way back to my room after my classes for today, which was only Controlling. Sigh. At least it's Friday and there are no classes during the weekend. I got into my room, put my books on the bed, and laid down right next to them. Skylar was laying in her bed and was playing with her phone. I wanted to eat something after the class and also meet up with Reilly, so the girls left without me and returned to our dorm room. They did disappear somewhere though and it was only Skylar now in out room. She laughed at something and then realized I was back. She was laying on her stomach and only turned her head to look at me. She has already changed her clothes to a more comfy ones which was a matching tank top with black shorts. The color of that outfit didn't even come near the same dark raven color of her hair she had tied in a high messy bun. After she noticed me, she put her headphones down and sat on the edge of her bed. Even though she tried to help me with the practise or just hang out, I didn't want to talk about it. The only thing that was on my mind was leaving this school. If I couldn't use magic, it was useless for me to stay here. I could only focus on not getting angry in the future to minimize the accidents and live somewhat normal life being an invisible pawn in some company or a shop. I get up and go to the bathroom to wash my face and get ready for bed. I was just chilling under my blanket, texting to Reilly about what should we do tomorrow and chatting as usual. The girls were hanging out together in the living room since Skylar noticed my mood and told me that she doesn't want to bother me if I wanted to sleep. I could hear them laugh from the next room while I was doom scrolling on my phone since Reilly said she will go for a late run. I got bored of the dumb videos on the internet so I tossed the phone next to my pillow and decided to go to sleep.
The next morning I woke up because of loud noises resonating in the dorm. It was the girls laughing and giggling in the other room. Even though I wasn't tired, I didn't get up to go and hang out with them. I stayed in bed and just rolled on the other side, facing the wall. Then suddenly someone jumps on me and starts to tickle me. I turn around annoyed. It was Kisha and she started apologizing for waking me up. I brushed it off and said it was okay, that I was already up. Half-awake, half asleep I sit up on my bed and watch them walk in and out of our room or dance around with clothes in their hands, pressing them to their bodies and ask around about which one they should go with. I asked them why are they dressing up in some fancy clothes, fancier than those they usual wear for classes. There is apparently an initiation party for the first years. It's unofficial because it's organized by older students. It is not sanctioned by the school but the professors apparently don't mind us having a fun from time to time. I didn't want to go. There was no reason for me to go and meet students if I am going to leave the school and I was never the party type.
Skylar: Oh come on, girl. Come with us, it will help you get your mind off school stuff.
Kisha: Maybe, I will get together with one of the 3rd years.
Solya: Why only 3rd years, girl? I am aiming higher!
Tsk. I am really not in the mood for discussing boyfriends. I have never dated in my life. Didn't want to because of the accidents and weird stuff happening around me. There was one boy in the orphanage who confessed to me. He was nice and kind but essentially, he got into a good foster home while I was still the demonic child and he forgotten about me after a few months. And then after that one time at an over-nigth stay high school trip we had one year, I was rather going to be a nun than deal with any men in this neighborhood. After a long day of visiting museums and galleries with the class, I just wanted to go to bed but Eddie, one guy from my class wanted to talk. I went to the meet up place next to the illuminated pool only to get it over with. Either he wanted to ask for notes or confess, I didn't care at the time. I crossed my arms in front of my chest, trying to fight the cold night breeze and only turned to him, barking at him what he wants. But he grabbed me and tried to kiss me. I fought out of his grip, trying to kick and slap him but it wasn't working and then the „demonic possession" happened while some of the deck chairs left near the pool started to get dragged towards us and fly up. Eddie pushed me and I fell into the pool filled with now cold water. Some of the kids started to look from the balconies or windows of their rooms and those who were on the same floor just ran out when they heard the noise. Seeing my pool they started to laugh and look at Eddie who only blurted out that I was the one trying to make a move on him to save his disgusting ass. And since then he joined the bullying squad, spreading rumors how I was creepy and I tried to sleep with the popular boys only to get rid of the „being an orphan kid" label. My memories of the dating scenarios in my life were interrupted by Crimen that spoke the girls on her way to the room, drying her wet hair with a white towel.
