Sunburn

Sunburn: Part 22

Well okay... Seems like I am not in NONE of Mia's classes anymore...
And Mia isn't actually in my year group... But the group above me...

That makes it harder for me to build the courage to talk to Mia... I have to actually build the courage when walking past her... I can't just sit in class and ponder whether or not I'll talk to her that day... Well... It makes it so much more difficult for me to talk... Considering i have like... Zero confidence to actually talk to her...

I walked out of my maths class and breathed in the fresh winter air... And thought to myself...

"In a few months... It is going to be summer again... And i wont be able to spend any time with anyone because of the sun..."

After school, i walked home with Helen, until we got to her house, then she left for home, and i continued down to my house.

When i got home, it was silent... Very silent... I walked into the lounge and found my mother asleep on the couch with an empty bottle of wine beside the couch and the box of the old family tapes...

My mother had been watching the videos of the times me, my father, and my mother spent time together...

It was cute to find that my mother had fallen asleep watching my father... But it was sad for i don't know how much she cried... Or how long she had been watching them for...

I simply went to the hot water cupboard, grabbed a blanket... Placed it on her, and went up to my bedroom for the rest of the night.

I woke up from my own alarm the next day, because i knew my mother would have too much if a hangover to bother waking herself up early, let alone waking me up early.

I woke up, grabbed my stuff for school and mentally prepared myself for English class... For that was my first period at school... And well... Helen will always be there to wake me up when i fall asleep in class... So i don't have to worry about dozing off or anything like that...

At interval, I went to the library... Because... Well... I had nowhere else to go... It was quite boring in there... All the students who go there are either computer nerds or are very loud and obnoxious... So i plugged in my headphones, and drown out to some music before class started.

When the bell rings for third period, i put my headphones into my pocket, grab my bag and make my way out of the door and towards my next class. Art: Painting.
