"Are you the sun? Because you're beauty is blinding." I say to her. She laughs. I can't even explain how my much I love her breathtaking taking laugh. The way her eyes squint at the corners. Her nose scrunches up just a little bit. A light pink blus...
The person, be it gentleman or lady, who has not pleasure in a good novel, must be intolerably stupid -Jane Austen

I never wanted to hurt anyone.
Under any circumstance, did I want to be the cause of pain for another. That was never my intention.
But it seems as if I hurt everyone surrounding me.
I don't know how. I was like a black hole that sucked in everyone around me into a dark abyss. No matter how many times I try to convince myself otherwise, I knew I was infectious.
Not like the good kind. The type where a girl smiles and everyone magically becomes happier.
I used to be that infection. Friends with everybody. The light in the room.
But like every other beautiful flower, they die. The process may start slowly, but it is still deadly. There is no stopping it when it comes. The owners of the plant just have to sit and watch it wilt.
The assumption that this process is only physical and occurs only in flowers is fallacious. I have proof. Me.
It happened to me. My whole being crumbled from the outside. So much like a delicate flower. So weak.
Ringgggggggg
The sound of my alarm goes off. I don't even know why I have it. It's not like I go to sleep.
I eagerly get out of bed. Other teenagers my age would be reluctant to go to school. Not me. It's like a break from reality.
Especially photography class. If I ever wanted to pursue a career, it would be in photography. I love catching the perfect moments in time. When I hold my camera, it feels like the world around me disappears. Everything slows.
All that is in the moment is me, my camera, and the perfect shot.
"Avy, come on. If you're not down here in 20 minutes, I'll be leaving without you," calls out my twin brother, Adonis.
Just because he is 15 minutes older than me, he thinks he can boss me around. Either way, he will leave me. He has done it before. I came downstairs a minute late, and he was already down the street. I had to walk to the bus stop. As soon as I got there, the bus took off. Let's just say I didn't make it to school that day.
"Im coming," I yell back.
I hurriedly go to my closet to grab some clothes. I took a shower sometime earlier this morning.
I decide to put on a plaid skirt, a lace tank top, and a sweater on top.
