Life doesn't always seem to work your way. It surprises you, in the most deadly and sometimes happier ways.

The bell rang, sending a jolt of panic through me.
I was late.
Again.
Grabbing my books in a rush, I bolted down the corridor, I could totally see people staring at me as if i was ghost??
Buttt my mind was only focused on one thing: getting to class before Mrs. Evans could give me another disappointed look.
Doesn't happen with me much
ok maybe a few times
In my defense.. I got lost, usually, Alex would drop me to my classes.
Just a few more steps, I told myself. I could still make it on time.
But then, out of nowhere, I slammed into something—or rather, someone. The impact was sudden and jarring, and before I knew it, my books were flying out of my hands, crashing to the floor in a chaotic mess. I stumbled back, arms flailing to keep my balance, and my heart sank as I realized what had just happened.
I'd run straight into Alex.
He wasn't hurrying to help me. In fact, he wasn't doing anything at all.
He didn't even look at me.
I froze, staring up at him, expecting at least an apology or a quick, embarrassed smile.
But there was nothing.
He just kept walking, his long strides taking him further away as if I hadn't even been there.
My books lay scattered across the floor, pages bent and covers askew, but he didn't seem to care.
He didn't even turn his head.
It was like I was invisible.
I watched him disappear into the crowd, my heart pounding in my chest for reasons that had nothing to do with running.
Why hadn't he stopped? Why hadn't he even looked back? My mind raced with questions, each one more confusing than the last. Did he not see me? Or worse, did he see me and just not care?
