The week went by quick almost like a blur, rumors and comments about my fiasco were cooling down, people started to ignore me like they usually do avoiding me like some kind of virus. I was happy with that, hell! I was estatic! No more being embarrassed and being put in the spot light. Saturday was around the corner I could almost touch it, I would enjoy my weekend like a lazy bum, watching movies eating pizza and popcorn and more pizza, of course after doing my homework that is. You know got to keep that GPA high. Though I couldn't have been more wrong.

It all happened in slow motion one minute I was sitting in the couch enjoying a full marathon of The Walking Dead In netflix, with some popcorn and right out of the oven veggie pizza. When the clock hit 2:00PM. My body and time slowed down, the room went icy and dull. I shut my eyes and braced my self for the worst part. My conciousness entered another realm.

It was foggie I could not identify anything. It was as if my very first vision replayed all over again. This time the environment surrounding me was barely recognizable. Something was off, the feeling was undescribable that sort of feeling you get when something big is going to occur. I could barely see a figure, the silhouette made its way gradually towards me . Whatever "it" was gave me the impression of a guy, but then the unexplainable happened. The presence was close very close, close enough to touch yet undefinable. Though I couldn't see his features, I was mesmerized by a pair of mismatched eyes. The left one blue as the sky, so blue you could almost drown in it. Hermoso. The other light green, the kind you only saw in pictures, the kind of green you see in forest. So so beautiful. But before I took a better glance at them.

I had regained full consciousness. My body laid numbly across the couch every single muscle screamed in protest, as I tried to sit back up. The television played a different episode indicating that I was out for a pretty lengthy time, the sound of gun shots and screams coming from it, gave me a headache. I shut it off. everything came back to me at the speed of light. The vision but most importantly those eyes, I just knew I wouldn't be able to get those eyes out of my head for a while. They were just so beautiful. Exotic

As I sat there on the couch pondering about who those eyes could possibly belong to. What a mystery. I sat there staring blankly at my t.v. To say I was out of it was an understatement.

I felt my phone vibrate in my pocket. What a drag.

Should I answer or not? I took a couple of minutes to contemplate. I thought of the pros and cons. If I didn't answer whoever it was wouldn't stop calling me, to be honest I didn't want to hear my phone vibrate repeatedly, though they might give up all together and stop calling me. However if it was my aunt or Kelly I would never hear the end of it.

"Hello" my voice sounded raspy even to me.

"I've called you like six times now, what exactly are you doing that is soooo important!?" Kelly's high pitched voice shouted at me. Cringing I pulled the phone away from my ear, I'm pretty sure if I had kept it in place, I would have permanent ear damage.

I was impressed though this chick had a set of lungs.

"Oh! Stop being dramatic and The walking Dead is really important!" I rolled my eyes.

"Seriously Kiara you are such a loser..no offence but you need to get a social life" I shrugged and reached for a slice of pizza and stuffed it in my mouth. It was cold now.

"The more I meet people the more I like my dog, seriously I rather stuff my face in the toilet than have a social life" i replied chewing slowly. Kelly exhaled in surrender.

"That's the reason you don't have friends, you push people away Kiara..." That sparked my anger. I interrupted her mid sentence.

"I push people away! Are you kidding me right now! People avoid me like I'm a disease like I'm some sort of freak! They make fun of me and treat me like I'm trash..." My voice broke at the last part, I didn't notice I was crying. Closing my eyes I counted to ten.
