Before me

I wish

This is the time that changed my life. I am 12 years old in grade 7 and honestly I thought this was one of the best years in my life.. I was starting to be more confident in myself and not needing someone to protect me all the time as I was stepping out of my comfort zone though. Until summer came I didn't know that I would be dancing with myself. I look outside, the sky is blue, the trees are bright green and there is just enough wind where it isn't too cold. It is just right. Then i hear the school bell ring, as were all outside knowing that summer is about to happen, i finally had the courage to talk to some of the popular kids in school, some were not interested at all, but i found a few friends, Palma, Saina and Brad and Raz,

There were times when we were friends and it was normal but then they started to talk to other girls within the school, and I ended up being with myself again, afraid to talk to people as I would always be in the back of the classroom with the weirdos. That was okay, because i already knew that i was weird, even when the national anthem would come on i wouldn't stand, maybe that's why no one wanted to talk to me? And why my sister felt the need to protect me from anyone that would question me on why I can't stand for the national anthem at 12 years old .

Even the teacher would look at me like i am crazy but then knowing she had to understand as they couldn't miss force people at school who have their own religious beliefs, but didn't mean the kids wouldn't be as rude, as some people told me to go back to my own country, and others thought i was Jewish when i wasn't. As a 12 year old it's hard to make friends when you also dealing with that in your life, so i knew i wasn't a normal12 year old and i never would be but i liked Raz for most of my school life i finally talked to them and honestly it went well i knew at that time maybe next year we could all be friends and i wouldn't be such a loner as i smile and wave goodbye to them all i walk to my mothers car, not knowing that going into that car, would wreck that dream forever.

As I put my purple backpack away , that had my school binder that I loved to decorate with my own art. My Bible that my parents made me bring, because apparently they both always had a bible with them when they were in school but i honestly don't believe it. What kid would bring a bible to school, other than my older sister Etna.

As i look at her in the backseat reading a library book for her history class, She was also one of the smartest in her class, and very protective over me and my little brother as we then see him walk in the car, he is two years younger then me and extremely annoying, i would always hear that he skipped class or he beat up some kid in school.... and me ? What's my story? Honestly nothing, other than trying to impress people for years and today it finally worked somehow! I guess whoever this god , Maybe that was the day he was showing me what my life could be like.

Then, the words were spoken. My mother looks back at us and says " This summer is going to be awesome, we're moving!" and at 12 years old i really felt my heart drop there as we were driving in the car, all three of us in the back seat and my mom in the front as that was usually the place my dad would be but he's working in the garage at this time right now, as i didn't know when i was 12 he was actually drinking in the garage, but it's okay since may we all didn't know he was at that time as soon as we got up to the house, My mother parks as she she's my dad she smiles, one day i want a relationship like that , when i see the person i am with that they instantly make me smile no matter what.

Then it starts to rain. As something within me started to feel weird, my eyes couldn't stay open like I haven't slept in days but everyone else seemed to be unbothered by what happened as if I was the only one witnessing it.

I see it all like a flashing moving in my mind , My Brother, Rick , not having anywhere to live, my mother being alone and confused, but also working all the time everyday, and my dad, drinking a lot as he would pass out within my vision and my sister leaving the religion, and then my mom calling us saying that they found my dads body as were all drinking. As I look at my life now as it stops raining, I wanna cry as my sister looks at me and wonders.

"Hey Gabby, are you okay?" she says as she opens the door. I hold back my tears, there is no way I could tell her , she wouldn't understand . I nod yes without saying anything as she would know that honestly... I am about to cry. She nods in a way of telling me, she understand as she walks out i then put my hand on the handle of the car door handle as i can hear my mom telling me to hurry up but i notice something underneath the car seat as its glowing like a light, but the light also looks like it has a heart beat as it flashes lightly, i then pick it up, it's a small metal silver.

"Hurry up Gabby!" I hear my sister yell with my mom as it makes me jump. I grab my backpack as I put it in there. My sister looks at me weirdly like she already knows that I am up to something.

What she didn't know was that I wasn't the one who was up to something, the universe was.

As i am still looking outside with the door open, looking at the school confused on what just happened as my mom looks at me with annoyance wondering why i haven't closed the door yet as she then annoyedly sighs.

"Gabby Leigh Anderson, if you don't close that door now!!"

I just back into reality as I close the door. All I want to do is go upstairs and figure out what in tarnation is this glowing silver ball i have in my hand so i take off my shoes and i run upstairs

As i am in my room my mom is talking to my sister as she walks into hers wondering what's wrong with me today if anything happened at school that made me upset, i ignore the conversation as i then plug the headphones into my cd player that plays Justin Bieber as to me he is the best singer of all time and i hope in that future i just saw i would still listen to him, i tap on the silver ball, as it makes this weird Gajet sound, and dark black wings pop out of it. As I look out the window it starts to rain again. What is going on with this weather! I think to myself.

As I then think about the vision I had, my heart starts rising, as I see it I think to myself.

I hope whatever I see doesn't happen.

I hear a gush of wind, as it almost makes me stumble, as the ball then closes.

I then hear a knock on my door as i thought that was weird since they would normally just walk into my room without knocking as i then see someone walking in my room as i don't recognize their shoes, it's almost goddess dark purple and black, as i nervously move to the window and that's when i saw her. She is tall, skinny, has big dark blue eyes and pale skin and dark dark black hair almost like you can see another world being sucked in. as her outfit is so tight on her looks like it's her skin as she goes up to me .

She puts her hand on my head, as i black out.

Wishing i never Found that ball,

But it was too late as I already made my wish as the wings were closed. You couldn't make any more wishes, was she the goddess of wishes?
