Relucir

Chapter 3: Day 1

Rriiinnngggg! Rriinnggg!

I glanced at my alarm clock... 5:30?!

One minute... just one minute please...

And so I went back to sleep...

"SKYE! GET DOWN HERE THIS INSTANT! THERE'S A CRATURE IN THE LIVING ROOM!" Seriously? It's too early to shout, aunt.... Stop.

"Who is it?" I mumbled, still half-asleep

"How would I know? As if we're close, you know-- Uuurrgghhh! Just get down here!"

"Alright... alright. I'M COMING!" =_=

5:50.WHAT THE?!?!

In just a blink of an eye I got up to my feet, I did my 2-minute bath and change to my daily outfit, our school uniform.

I was about put my shoes on when...

"SKYE! WHAT TOOK YOU SO LONG?! THE CREATURE'S WAITING" she called.

"I KNOW! I JUST GOT A LITTLE LATE" I defended.

And.... Woah.

What the... How on earth does this person know my address? Well, never mind.

"Hi Skyeee!" this person is so high. Is she taking drugs or whatever?

"Your aunt is such a good person. But... does she really have to call me 'creature'?" she asked, confused.

Terrible. Yea, I know.

Okay, let me tell you something about this person/creature.... she's a girl, to state the obvious. With long hair... approximately 20+ inches long, nice curves and got nothing left to do with her life but annoy everyone.

Honestly, we have opposite characteristics; she really loves to annoy people and piss them until she got bored... and me, I'm the 'other-girl' type of person. So I really do not understand why on earth did this girl chose me.

~~~

I really wanna smack her in the face, you know.

I'm not a bully by the way, it's just that I know she wants to make others laugh.... well for me, at least. That's one of the reasons why we became friends. Sounds silly right?

Anyways, back to reality...

"Skye, have you ever thought of something out of this messed-up world?" she asked.

"Huh? What do you mean?"

"Nothing!" -_- what?

" Tell me or I'll kill you." I threat.

She smiled. "Heh. Sorry! Maybe it's not yet the time for you to know."

"Yeah. Whatever."

??

I'm currently in the classroom, sitting in my usual chair... and bored. Urgghhh! I.am.so.sick.of.this.... I already reached my 9th grade of attending the same school and not even the slightest bit of new things happen... except for new arrivals (students) but who cares about them anyway? Not me.

Encuentrame...

"Did you hear that?? " I asked immediately. Completely forgot the teacher having his discussion.

"SShhhh! We're having classes " Stella reprimanded.

Honestly, why didn't they notice that? Is my mind went out of its way again? Nahh~ maybe that's just a weird hallucination.

"Skye! " Chelsea called.

"Son of a sheep?! Why'd you scare me like that?! " I shouted.

"You were in a long journey with that head of yours so I need to bring you back! Haha!"

"None of your business. " I ended the topic.

"So class, as you all know our field trip is drawing near and I certainly know that all of you is excited for that event... blahblahblahblah " said our adviser.

Field trip? Again? Aren't they sick of going to the same place every year?

"But here's a twist. This field trip is an interesting one. It's not like the past field trips we had that goes to the same place and do the same stuff. One of the faculty members suggested the idea and surprisingly, the administration agreed. " He continued. What's taking so long to say it? Go to the point already.

"Okay. This weekend, we'll be going to an island. " ....

Not a moment to soon, the whole class is going out of control. The girls are squealing at their top voices and the boys as well howled like they won the lottery or something.

"But our trip is not all about vacation or anything. In the chosen island, we perform various activities to make that certain island improve their environmental state" He added.

"Did you hear that Skye? We're going to an island!" said Chelsea

"I'm not deaf. I know. " I answered

"Why aren't you happy? " she asked

"It's nothing special and maybe it's just that... nevermind "

"Funny. Of course it is special! Tell me later, okay? But for now, I need to celebrate " she added

Why does she need to celebrate? It isn't a big deal... unbelievable.

"Phew..." I'm now walking my way to my house and unbelievably thinking about the field trip. I haven't experienced being in an island before and I don't have the slightest idea what to do or what awaits me there... urrgghhhh~ additional stress. Why am I thinking about this anyway? Maybe because it's new to me but why fuss about it? I can just stay back here and let them enjoy the field trip by themselves. Oh my Skye, you're so smart no wonder you're always on top ;-)

"NNOOOO!" okay, someone just shouted.

"Huh?" I turned back and saw Chelsea head towards my direction.

"What are you doing here? Isn't your house on the other street?" I asked

"I-I don't want t-to go ho-ome yet..." she said while panting. That's what you get for running that fast.

"Why not? There's nothing interesting my place" I warned.

"I don't care... I just don't feel like going home right now" she answered

We spent the whole walk with Chelsea talking the whole time. Why can't her mouth shut?

" I'm home Aunt Therese." I greeted when we arrived.

"Oh. Hi Skye! It's so good to see you. And look! You've grown so much than the last time I saw you" Wait... what?

"Skye, your aunt Emily is staying here for only a few days for some business—"

"What business?" I cut

"She's preparing something for the weekend and she need a place to stay before going somewhere " she explained.

I think that's enough reason. I went up upstairs and Chelsea followed me after she greeted both my aunts.

"I'm so excited for the field trip. I'm sure it's going to super-duper fun!" she started

"I'm not going" I said
