GALAXY

Chapter 5

It appeared right in front of me. Looking into my eyes with it's new eyes. Slowely it flew a bit closer, just a few inches away from me. My view was stuck on his blue eyes. Silent was how I sat there, without any sound. Just staring and thinking. I sighed softly while I got lost in my own mind. The shadow turned around and flew towards my desk. It took a pencil and sat down on the chair. I got up and walked to it. It was writing some things down at my homework. "What are you doing?", I asked on a soft volume. My eyes widend. "Are you helping me out?" It stood up and let me sit down. It gave me the pencil. And that's how it helped me making my homework.

But yet, I knew deep inside, things would stay this way. I would never be able to be happy. To smile worthfully and to be loved. I would always be hated. Always unimportant. Not needed. It was what I was for. So others wouldn't have to deal with living hell. "Don't you worry. You are not alone. This war isn't permanent. So is faith, hold on", I heared the voice singing while staring at the ceiling, feeling the presence of the shadow. Not knowing if I would open my eyes the next morning...
