Vulnerable

I wake up to my younger sister Anastasia lightly poking my cheeks.

“Wake up Leon it’s time for school”

I sit up chuckling and rubbing my eyes “I’m up I’m up”

She smiles at me and makes her way out of my room shutting the door.

I lay there for a few more seconds before getting up.

I put on my usual black skinny jeans, button up short sleeve shirt, beanie and vans.

I walk out of my room and start walking towards the kitchen,and smell bacon as I hit the narrow hallway outside of it.

I walk in finding Anastasia cooking breakfast already dressed with her bookbag on the bar.

I walk over kissing her cheek,stealing a piece of bacon from a plate before sitting at the bar, she waggs her skinny finger at me.

I roll my eyes and put the piece of bacon in my mouth.

“After we eat we have to hurry and get you to school,I have a test professor Steele assigned”

she smiles

“okay Leon”.

As we both finish the last bite I grab my keys and run out to start the car

I can hear Anastasia shutting the front door of our small apartment and locking it.

“Can I plug my phone into the aux cord?”

I smile “course you can”.

She puts on twenty one pilots and we both sing along to car radio.

We reach her school and wait for the song to end before she gets out and quickly unplugs her phone from the aux .

I smile at her

“love you Ane I’ll pick you up after school”

She smiles back

“okay,love you too bubba”.

I wait till she gets inside the school before quickly driving to my school.

I park my small car and get out grabbing my bag and sprinting inside my school and down the hall to my classroom.

As I walk into class I can feel my professor’s eyes burning a hole into the back of my neck

as I walk to my seat he clears his throat before speaking “As I was saying, we will now begin our test,it seems Mr.Jackson has made it in the nick of time as always”.

Everyone’s eyes turn to me

I quickly look down at my shoes, feeling my palms start to sweat and my heart beat growing faster

i feel an anxiety attack coming on but I just stay in my seat hoping it’ll pass.

Mr.Steele  starts explaining the rules of the test
