I like to walk alone you know? It calms me down because Michelle keeps telling me that every time I'm angry or stressed a fire literally starts in my eyes. She thought it was cool but I'm kinda insecure about, keep this between you, me and her alright?
I heard a loud noise from somewhere and I notice it's getting brighter although it's 11 p.m. I look up and there is a small shiny red ball hurtling towards me. I think oh man I'm gonna get superpowers until I realised it was probably going to kill me. It landed just a few yards away. I wanted to run and see what was left, but wait, a stone? Some alien thing? Orange? What a peculiar colour... I noticed it matches my eye colour. I ran through all the shrubs and plants all the way back home.
"Mom! Mom! Look what I found!"
"Oh dear, it matches your eyes!" She replied
"I know right?"
"Where did you get it?"
"Uhm," if I told the truth then I know she would confiscate it, "it was on the ground near the woods"
"Are you sure? Because I heard a meteor out there..." She says it like it happens all the time.
"Yeah I heard that, I ran away and found this on the way."
"Okay then, go to sleep its late"
"Okay goodnight mom!"
