Arianna's POV

I woke up by the smell of 'upma' its a Indian dish. Damn, I love its smell. It seems mom came late yesterday.... Hmm, never mind.

My stomach started growling, so I ran to the bathroom did my daily duties, changed from my pajamas into my jeans and 'I ♥ Rome' T-shirt, took my bag and went straight to the kitchen

I saw mom making our breakfast, I sat on the chair and  said 'good morning' to her, she put the bowl of upma in front of me as she greated me back. As we ate I kept my rambling on. I love to tell mom every thing. Cause she listens, none of my friends listen to me like mom does, they always speak in the middle and change the topic. God, I hate when they do that.

I love that mom listens to me no matter how rediculous it may be. Before I was not like this, telling mom everything and all. I used to talk really less. You see, I'm adopted, mom adopted me when I was 5,well she would never really say that out loud, at that time I was one hell of a loner. Once a guy pointed out that we did not look the same, he pointed out I was adopted, not in a nice way, mom got annoyed and yelled at him, "It  doesn't matter! She is MY daughter! It may not be by blood but she is by soul!" And for a moment I thought the person in front of me was someone else! Her look was so murderous, that I thought she was really gonna kill him! But at the same time I felt her love, I lost my parents when I was a baby, I knew she loved me like no one ever did, and from that day I tell her every  thing.

After finishing my breakfast I pick my back and kissed mom goodbye. Before going out she said "Aria, nest time you have a fight just knock your opponent down OK? Don't break him into peaces" she says in an amused voice, "alright! " I said with a smile. Then I walk to the bus stand where one of my friend was standing, we chatted till the bus came, it didnt took that long, as the bus came in next 5 mins.

We got in and reached school in 10 mins. There we meet our other friends, from there we walked to the locker room. While taking my books out somebody taped my back, I turned around to find Gray, he is the karate club's captain, I never really talked to him. "Hi?" I said more like asked. He smiles and says " Hi, I want to challenge you for a fight after school" he dead planted, not again, I thought. "Alright, I will see you after school then" I said, he nods at me and goes on his way, now I thing that I made the wrong decision by announcing bout the fight..... It has turn out to be more annoying! Well any way, I went to my fist lecture, English, interesting one, but ends fast. Then Sociology and then Political science then it was lunch time we, means me and my friends, ate and then soon it was history lecture then economics and the last lecture was supposed to be French, but we were told to go to the auditorium.

It turns out it was just to give us some tips about coming exams and awareness bout stalkers. The principal himself gave the speech, when ever I see the principal, I have this feelings that I know him from somewhere else, I don't know, must be my imagination.

Then the school end, but still one last thing was suppose to happen, and that was the fight with Gray, ugh! I wanted to go home! Haa~ oh well, I reached the ground where the fight is suppose to happen, all my fights take place in the same place and that's the school ground. I don't know how but the teachers don't really do any thing bout it they actually gave the permission to do so just that one teacher is suppose to be present during my fights, principal Brikly himself gave the permission! Well anyway, I reached the ground on time and like always, there is one hell of  a audience present here.

There is always this huge crowd, to see my fight. Gray was standing in the middle I gave my bag to one of my friends and walked too him. "Rules are the same, if one surrenders the other win, or if one knock's the other then the game's set. And if I win then you will leave me alone once and for all and if you win, I will go on a date with you. Are you ready?" I said to him. He nods and say "I am ready". And thus our fight begins

We took our stance, he started jumping a little and attacked first, he throw a punch at me and I dodge it. He throws another one at me and I dodge again, he was unguarded from the right side so I took a swing and punched on his right jaw, he was defiantly hit. But due to constant practice he was able to get out of the dizziness fast, then he suddenly swept his legs  which made me Fall flat on my back. He was about to give me a punch again, but I rolled over and stood up fast, after so many fights people know, you have to take me seriously to win against me, this time I went first, I punched him, he dodged it, punched him again, dodge it, then I throw kicks and punches simultaneously at him and block block his attack as much as possible. Then after sometime his guards were getting down, so I took the opportunity and gave him a nice punch at the jaw, but this time before he could realise what is happening, I gave him another hook aiming his jaw, and there he was out cold on the ground. The crowd cheered for me, and Gray was taken to the nurse's office.

After that fight I was ready to go home and tell mom. This time unfortunately, my friends had some or the other work to do so I had to go home alone. Because of the fight I missed my bus so now I have to walk to another bus stand to catch a bus. While walking I felt as if someone was following me, but I didn't care so much bout it and got in the bus, it was fine for some time but then again I thought someone was there, watching me. I speed up and took a different root and ran in different directions when at last I lost them. Mr. Mask, my martial arts teacher, taught me how to out run someone who is following you, he told me the person won't try to harm me if there are people around us. Now that I'm sure no one was following me, I waked the path that took me home.

This time I was not sure if I wanted mom to know bout it. So when I enter I forgot to say 'I am home' like I usually do. I was thinking too hard. When mom came in the livingroom. She frowned looking at me and asked "Hon? What's the matter? Did something happen?" She asked as I saw worry on her face. I didn't talk for few seconds, debating whether to tell her or not, at the end I did.

After telling her that someone was watching me, her frown depend. She started thinking. You know, when my mom thinks she starts pouting, its really cute, she doesn't even realise it. After some thinking she spoke "Listen hon, tomorrow while coming from school, make sure that you come with your friends, if they are not there then call me I'll pick you up, OK?" She says while putting her hand on both of my shoulders and looking straight in the eyes. I nod vigorously, she smiles and continues "Well we don't know if they really are after you, but, just for precautions......" She trailed off, but continued, " I am going to make a phone call, till that time go and eat, I made you some spaghetti." She said and in cue my stomach grumbles, she smiles at me and I give her a shy smile back. Then I walk to the kitchen and there it is my spaghetti.

I ate as I forgot about today and enjoyed the tasty food. Now I can't worry about things and just destroy my apatite, can I?

(That's it for now, hope you liked it!)
