VENGEANCE

Chapter 3. Glowing eyes.

The moment I step inside the gate our dog, Bloom, starts barking at me , like am some kind of a stranger! It runs to my direction but in hesitation as if it fears me .

The front door opens , mom and dad come out probably to check why the dog is barking like that . When Bloom sees them he runs back to them but still barking at me .

" There you are ! Seriously Haven ? Do you know what time it is ? You went for a run on a school day , the time you are supposed to be preparing for school ?! And to make it worse you didn't tell anyone, we've been worried wondering where you went ,,, and just in shorts?!"

Mom scolds , standing at the door. Why would she assume that I went for a run ?! Like why would I go for a run in the first place? Instead of tiring myself with runs , I would rather stay in bed and read comic books.. well, that's what I do mostly with my free time,, a.. not just free time because I do that in class too , when am bored.

" Since when do you go for runs?" Dad asks, holding a small white ceramic cup in his hand.

"Sorry , I'll be ready in a minute " I say passing them by the door , not wanting to talk about what they are trying to talk to me about .

" Have you been working out ? Geez.. You have abs now? And you seem to have added a torn of muscles, oh dear , I hope you are not doing this for that girl you like , what's her name again? Chesa.. Leas.." Why is she like this. I mean, are all moms like this? So nosy..

" Chelsea " I say rushing upstairs,, Speaking of nosy , do I really have abs now?
No way...

I rush to the bathroom the moment I enter my room, straight in front of the mirror to confirm .
And holy crap! It seems like I've really  added muscles overnight! Or maybe just some few minutes ago because I hadn't realised it myself.

My goodness! Should I be happy about what is happening to me or should I be worried? What on earth is happening? I look like a whole different person now . My skin has become , milky smooth , which is blending very well with my black blond hair that's falling to my neck .

Honestly, I love how my face looks now with all the acnes gone , A baby face but with a slightly torn body . Okay,, in general.. I love this! I mean , am hot now !

I look back in the mirror and the smile on my face immediately gets replaced with shock , I fall on the floor hitting my back on the wall , My eyes are glowing ,, golden , exactly like the ones I saw that night!

I unconsciously scream and after like a second the door of the bathroom flies open . " Honey are you okay ? What's it?" Mom asks leaning where I am .

I can't master words to speak , my body is shaking.

"What is the problem?" Dad asks.

"My.. mm.. my eyes." after a struggle , I manage to say.

" What about them ? " mom asks looking at them and am wondering why she isn't seeing that they are glowing.

"Don't you see anything strange in my eyes?" I ask surprised.

" No " dad answers .

" How comes?" I stand up and walk to the mirror, surprisingly they are my normal eyes  , brown.  "What the f*ck" I curse under my breath .

"Please don't tell me you are still doing that thing even at this age . The thing when you could start drama when you don't want to go to school , I thought you grew out of that ." Mom says looking surprised but amused at the same time .

I have no choice but pretend.  "Can I not go , pleeeease."

" No you are going to school even when you are late . Now hurry up buddy , your mother will drop you off today , and please don't get yourself in trouble and end up in detention because today and tomorrow you need to be home as early as 3.30 o'clock , no going out at night." Dad says.
