Sarah woke up on dull, grey and rainy day. Dreading to get out of bed and get ready for school. It was the first day of the New Year. Hoping to change what had happened to her last year Sarah got out of bed and got changed into her most casual outfit. Every year she gets teased about what she wears and what she looks like. She brushed her long brown hair and stared into her own deep blue eyes wondering about what the day has in store for her. Last year had been the worst year of teasing. The most popular girl in the school, Justine, had found out that she had a crush on the hottest guy in the school, Alex. Taking it to new extremes Justine made it a living hell, even walking through the school gate she was teased about her string feelings towards Alex.
When Sarah had come home the day it all started no one in her family seemed to care how she felt. Eating family meals with them was like being an outcast in a jail cell. Prison was her home and now it was her school as well. Packed and ready to go she walked out her black bedroom door and down the stairs to the kitchen.
“Foods on the table, I’m off to work.” Her mum said in a hurry.
She was never there in the mornings and the times when she was she just made a small meal and left without saying goodbye.
Sarah walked straight out of the house not picking up any food on the way. She was more interested on getting out of her house into someplace where she could be comfortable. Coming up to the large school gates Sarah stopped and waited for someone to shred her to bits with name calling and teasing about Alex. But nothing she was late to school and everything was silent. They way it used to be in the beginning. She walked to her homeroom class and took one deep breath before entering hell.
“Sarah” Her roll call teacher yelled over the yelling students.
“Here” She said waiting for the torture to start.
“Look who it is, little miss i love Alex” Justine said teasing her.
“Get away from me” Sarah yelled.
“Naww what’s wrong you don’t like being called names?” Justine asked.
Sarah gave Justine a big glare.
“Cry baby!” Justine yelled and walked away.
Sarah watched as Justine walked over to Alex and kissed him right in front of her. Feeling angry Sarah watched and a part of her died on the inside, she wanted to be the one with him.
New timetables were out and Sarah had the best teachers, Mr Smits for Science and Maths and Mr D for P.E. They were her favourite teachers and they were her favourite subjects. Sarah walked over to her seat in P.E and waited to see who was in her class. Alex walked in and following non other then Justine.
“Great just who I need in my class!” Sarah whispered to herself.
“Well look what the cat dragged in”
“Sup” Alex said looking straight at Sarah. Sarah was stunned with his shaggy brown hair, blue eyes and skater look.
“Don’t talk to her!” Justine yelled.
“Why not?”
“Because she’s a weird one!”
Sarah stopped and turned around to face the board when Mr D begun to talk about what they were learning this year.
“Alright everyone settle down, settle down. This term we are going to be learning about different contraception’s. We are also going to be learning about sex.” Mr D said.
Everyone started laughing and Justine stared at Sarah. The hell had started again and she knew that this topic would make her one of the biggest losers in school.
“So who can tell me some of the female body parts?” Mr D Asked. “Lets go don’t make me say them, Sarah go tell me right now”
“There are the breasts,” Sarah said quietly sinking in her chair.
“Which she has none of!” Justine retorted.
“The vagina”
“Which no one will ever touch” Justine said smiling and starting to laugh.
“The uterus, which Justine has had a baby sucked out of her twice!” Sarah yelled
Justine looked at her stunned and quickly retorted.
“Very funny, you try to get friends, but you have non. I’ll personally make sure of it.”
“Okay no more talking about the female body and maybe no more talking at all, everyone just open you computers and research about the female and male body.” Mr D had tried to silence them all, but there was a weird awkward tension in the air as everyone started to do their work.
Turning around every so often Sarah could see Justine kissing Alex. Maybe she had been wrong about Alex. Who could fall for a self-riches bitch like Justine? He did smell like Linx Chocolate though and his hair was just amazingly gorgeous. Sarah thought to herself and realized that no matter what his flaws were, she would always love him.
The bell went and there was a sigh of relief. But before Sarah could walk out of the door Justine was already in her face.
“If you ever say anything like that again, you will wish that you were dead!”
Sarah stared at her as she walked away furiously. Now she was regretting saying anything back to her. Sarah walked down the hall and out of a big brown doors of the entrance to the school wondering if she could transfer to a different school, one where no one knew her. And as she walked out of the school gates she remembered that her day wasn’t over yet.
