Between Two Worlds

Chapter 1

Buzz Buzz Buzz!

My eyelids flew open after the third ring of my alarm. It's become one of my habits already: waking up when the alarm tells me to. I took a bath and dressed up. Going downstairs to eat breakfast with my mom and dad hasn't gotten any easier.For what I know, they're probably arguing already.

"Good morning", mom said like she was in a trance. "Take a seat", added dad the same way mom said it.

"Would you mind leading the prayer, Alyssa?", dad asked. "Okay". The three of us sat quietly eating eggs and bacon with fried rice. School was going to start soon so I got up, kissing each of my parents on the cheek and saying goodbye. The usual routine...

Woah... What???

I was surprised I could think like that. Well, come to think of it, not really.

I made my way to class with my two best friends, Zoey and Catherine. They were talking about the new clothing line released by the most prestige designer, Melissa C. "What's your favorite, Alyssa?", uh oh, I thought. "Uh... the uh..." I stammered. I need to think quickly. Who knows they were talking to me? Most of the time these two talk without me. Which is fine by me except when they ask me a question about the topic. "Take a seat, Ms. Dyllan" said Mr. Stone, our Literature teacher. I didn't realize that the whole class was waiting for me to sit down. Zoey and Catherine were already at their places somehow trying hard not to laugh. So much for best friends. There it was again. I won't blame that inner thought, though. It is true.

Time passed by quickly. We hardly had any lessons at literature because one guy had to go to the clinic because some jerks were bullying him while the teacher wasn't looking. It took most of the period's time. While they were at the clinic the bullies moved on to bully another girl at our class. She wasn't pretty bad if you asked me. She's on top of our batch but people say she's a weirdo. If a brunette, blue-eyed, fair skined, full lipped and smart girl is weird, I'm not so sure about me anymore. No one's ever told me I'm pretty or ugly. People just leave me alone. Flanked by Zoey and Catherine, I can be invisible already. Both of them are blondes and they look like models. They're so tall yet they still wear 5-inch heels.

RIIIING!!!

Time for next period which is Math. I internally groaned. This was the only class I have with Josh Tanner, the absolute perfection of a boy. I would prefer if I could just watch him from afar than him being near me. I always get so nervous and awkward. I made my way to class alone. Zoey and Cat made their way to it without me.

And there he was. Gosh... I walked to my desk, near the front beside the window. And Josh was right there laughing with all of his popular friends. I wish I was with him... I thought. Pfft... Who am I kidding...

"Psst!, someone called out. Then I felt something bounce off my arm. It was a crumpled paper. Ugh. Doesn't this person realize that by doing this he or she could be easily seen?!?!? I'm almost at the front row. No doubt Mr. Lopez will see this. Better open it later. But what could be inside this? So I opened it and read:

Has anyone ever told u how gorgeous u r? -Josh XX

I sucked in a quick deep breath. I can almost fel my eyes bulge and my mouth hang open. No, he must mean the girl beside me. Or someone else. Maybe he just missed his target? .... Oh God I hope not.... Then at that moment I heard a roar of laughter emerge from where Josh nad his friends were sitted. I stared at them dumbfounded. "Hahaha! Will you just look at her face?!" said a dark haired guy and they all turned to look at me and burst out laughing again. At that moment I felt so thick. I could almost die. Without meaning to I walked over towards their group of dunderheads and felt my right arm slowly extend to punch Jush's face. WOAH. WHAT THE HECK?!?!!!!
