I went to bed right after the shower. The fact that my hair would be a state tomorrow since I didn't brush it or blow dry it didn't matter to me. What did matter what that I needed sleep more than anything to try and clear my head up tomorrow. Or if not there was a very good chance that I might just go insane and put myself into a mental hospital and never come out again. I didn't have any dreams that night but that was perfect. That kind of sleep meant that you wouldn't have to worry about being tiered in the morning.
But when the morning came I guess it proved her wrong. Her head was pounding and her heart was racing. The muscles in her body were sore and her eyes were heavy with sleep. "Come on and get ready Ari. You need to eat before we have to meet with people. Or person if you want me to be exact." Someone's voice said. Was it my mom? No. It wasn't. The voice was to melody like to be mom. Could it be one of my friends? Wait, what did she say? Meet someone?
Oh yhea. Now I remember. I am at Sky Academy. A place for... non- humans. A place for me. I frowned at that thought. How can I forget about this? All of this is so important to me because I found out what I truly am and somehow I actually fit into this place. Are you crazy!? My little inner voice spoke to me. You don't belong here. You belong at home or with your dad. Who left you when you were just a baby. No wonder why your mom married Mike. She couldn't be able to handle you when you turned out to be just like your dad. That thought made my heart twist. That wasn't true. It couldn't be, mom loves me. Why did the little inner voice have to be so cruel? It was unfair, definitely after all of this information was just dumped on me like ice cubes in a bucket.
"Come on Ari. For the last time come on. Or you won't be able to do anything with the rat's nest of yours." Dalla's voice said shattering that last of the sleep that was in my eyes. Rat's nest? Oh yes. Now I remembered that too. I was too tiered to do anything with my hair after my shower. How stupid of me. I pushed myself up into a sitting position and saw my hair in a mirror that was hung on the wall. It was shaped as a half moon.
Groaning I touched my hair. "Are you good at hair Dalla?" I asked her. She nodded and snapper her fingers together. In the next second my hair was smooth and untangly with a healthy shine to it. "Thank you." I said and hopped out of bed and went to my draw. I picked out a pair of ripped skinny jeans and a baby blue long sleeve. Yes I know I wear a lot of blue, but it makes my blue eyes stand out a lot. And that is what made me gain boys sometimes. And I have been dying to try and find my soul mate because it would be wicked to feel that silver chord everyone always talks about.
A knock at the door sounded when I came out from the bathroom. My teeth was brush and I had put on make up to. I opened the door and saw Jennifer there. "Hey girl. How is everything? Get a lot of sleep?" She asked me.
"Yes but it sure don't feel like that." I said and Dalla came to the door. "Let's go eat, I'm starved." I said. It was true, considering I only had some sips of a banana and blue berry smoothie and some bites of an apple. My stomach growled and prove to everyone I was hungry.
Dalla lead the way and the two of us followed. "Man I sure hope there is something delicious to eat." Dalla said and when we went into the dinning hall the smell hit me. It was bacon, lots and lots of bacon. My stomach churned and I felt as if I way going to puke all over my high tops. "That does smell delicious. Don't it Ari?" I sensed more than I saw Dalla look at me. "Ari?" Her voice came again.
I walked out of the dinning hall. The two of them followed me. "Oh man I hate that smell. How can you stand it. How can you guys even stand eating it? It's meat. And you know where meat comes from? Poor, innocent animals." I told them. Jennifer and Dalla looked and each other and busted out into laughter. "What is so funny you guys?" I asked them. Their laughter was starting to make me angry. How can they laugh about the topic of animals being slaughtered?!
