Sure we're not rich, but to say we're poor would also be an understatement. Our family didn't really have anything and we had only been able to make a home out of the oldest building in town.
Honestly it looked as though the old thing could break down on us at any time, but until then we live happily in it.
The local chief of police and boarder heads; board of directors, in our case of course are those under the mayors position felt sorry and showed pity to my dad seeing as though he is raising two daughters, a new born child; boy and his wife, my mom was critically ill. We can't afford a doctor so we tried to get help from our neighbor who happens to be a nurses for children but still all the same she was in the medical department.
Seeing as though my bike had been left out in the rain over the weekend and had begun to rust I had to run to barley make it to school. Walking in I was greeted by the typical whispers and stares of the other adolescent but I wasn't faze by it much. Getting some of what little thing I need from my locker I made my way to the cafeteria for breakfast.
Given it was Tuesday we had the options of getting a small cereals with a side of fruit, yogurt cup and a bag of granola or what was a sad excuse for an omelette and veggies, all with a choice of milk. I went with the yogurt cup and a strawberry milk
I sat at an empty table off to the side in the back. Just soon after eating my 'balanced breakfast' my best friend Micah joined me and greeted me with a toothy smile "hey gorgeous" he said giving me a tight side hug. "Hey" I replied whipping out my phone checking the time then after setting it on the table.
"Did you see what happened to Taylor yesterday at gym?" I looked at him as if he went crazy "oh right, my bad.. But any way" he continued with the conversation "apparently she said she did it with Malik and that they were going out now but he denied everything and said she was crazy" this caught my attention since I never really was a fan of Taylor doil, and the fact that someone actually denied spending a night in her 'platinum walls' was a bit shocking to say the least.
"So after some of the girls started laughing at her she ran off crying but then tripped on a volleyball!" I laughed as I tried to images her falling on her face and just about breaking a nail.
"She tried to walk it off, but since she apparently bruises herself somewhere when she fell she ended up limping away." At this point I couldn't help but hold my stomach in laughter. "Ha! she deserves it" Micah nodded as we both laughed together. you might be wondering why we are what some would probably call silent bullying but that'll be explained later so for now just laugh along.
Ha...
Just then the cafeteria got silent and all visual was at the lunch lines, their were whispers and talk of Someone spilling something on someone.
Nothing that I cared about really but then something interesting caught my ear. "Oh my gosh, she just spilled ..... On ......" "Wow is she stupid?" The next few commentary were a bit harsh so I decided why not leave. "hey wanna get out of here?" I asked Micah "huh? Oh sure, who do you think it is" he asked me as we got up and mad our way out to the double Doors. "Don't know, don't care" I waved off after dumping the rest of my 'breakfast' in the trash, soon after some moments of leaving the cafeteria conversations and noise were once again loudly heard.
I checked in my back pocket for my phone but it wasn't there, and honestly my hear dropped "shit!" I breathe checking everywhere else "what is it?" Micah asked "my phone I can't find it!" the thoughts of my hard work to get the money to pay for my second hand phone made me more on the edge and upset.
"You probably left it at the table, go ahead and see if it's still there... I'll wait for you here" pulling out his own phone "okay" I said walking back in and to the table but stoping short after seeing a familiar figure holding what I know as my phone. "oh god" I breathed in sharply, it was Noah Martinez son of the top borders tycoons and nephew of the chief of police, he was known to be a saint or a devil depending on witch side you were on.
