"BEEP BEEP BEEP"

You slam your hand onto the alarm clock beside you, making the noise stop. You lay in bed for a sec just to recap everything that happend in your mind. Things you wanted to remind yourself to do today. You think about your new friend Penny and how she just disappeared after asking about the choir. You think about how you saw that weird girl in the choir room. You remember that scent you smelt before you knocked out. 

'Could it have been a dream?'  You wondered. No. It couldn't have and the tv showing static in front of you is just proof. Before continuing to dwell on the topic you look at the clock. Deciding it would be a good idea to get up and get ready for school before you lay in bed until your late. You decide to brush of the memory just as something you thought you smelt in your half awake state. Getting up you go upstairs and use the bathroom. Greeting your mom who was in the kitchen reading the daily newspaper. As you walked into the bathroom, the cold tile jolting you more awake than you were before, something starts to nag at your mind. More specifically the newspaper. There's something you can't remember but it seems important. Something about a newspaper. While you stand there blankly in the middle of the bathroom you mother yelling at you to hurry up takes you out of your daze. You quickly get back to getting ready. Washing your face, brushing your teeth, using the toilet, ect. After putting on your uniform you walk back up stairs. Your mother ready herself, putting on shoes to go out somewhere.

"Where are you going?" You ask your mother. 

"I'm going out to the furniture shop to get stuff for my studio upstairs. Maybe a couple of trinkets if I find any." She answers

"Ok. Don't forget to get shelves for my room."  You call out as she walks out the house.

"I wont!" She yells back. Slamming the door as she walks out.

Your mother left giving yourself a couple of minutes before you have to head off to school. Wandering around the kitchen you start opening random drawers and rummaging through them. Just as your about to open one that looks like a piece of paper was stuffed into it you look up to the clock and see the time. your eyes widen and you run out the house so and make you way to school. Still taking wrong turns and getting lost but it was not as bad as the day before.

Arriving to school there still is no sign of penny. Trying to distract of the thought that you made a mistake dwelling in your mind you try and make other friends. Talking to some of the reoccuring people in your class. Most brushing you off except for one or two. The day continues to go one like this until lunch. 

You walk into the lunch room observing the students that are there. Realizing this was the first time you ever entered the cafeteria. Making a quick headcount you are able to count a little over 50 kids. Looking at all of your peers you don't seem to see the two faces you've been searching for all day. One of them of course being Penny, but you can't stop thinking about that character you seemed to become friends with the other day. Or atleast what you think making friends is. It's just that something about her intrigues you. One of the things that caused you to continue to search for penny. That little thought in the back of your mind.  The thought that this could be something more. Not seeing either of them you decide to skip lunch again today and head to the chorus room. If you were lucky you would see Penny or at least that strange girl you've encountered there the day before. It would be good to make friends and those two were the closest you got.
