Birds Keep Singing

Typical Turns Sour

Ring Ring Ring Ring Ring

My alarm went off and I naturally ignored it except my phone alarm stared to go off also. I took a shower and got ready for school, I put on my uniform ( I go to a uniform high school ). Everymorning I say hi to my parents...

"Good morning mom,dad. I have a test in school today, but don't worry I studied. Lysa and her family are doing fine."
I looked down at my watch, "Oh! I better scram or else I'll be late to school. Love you guys!" I said as I scurried out the door.

Lysa met me in the hall way and we went down the elevator. Lysa has flawless skin and long black hair that she always wears in a ponytail. She has green eyes that are ...fake, but don't tell anyone. I'm taller than her by 2 or 3 inches, but thats okay. Lysa started talking about how annoying her little brother is....AGAIN.

"Why can't I just be a single child again? My life would be perfect if I was an only child again! I was spoiled now I'm neglected. Everthing he does is a big deal, he throws his food and it's part of growing up. I accidently spill my drink and I'm a menace to man kind. You know what I mean, right 'Tasha?" Lysa asked me annoyed.

Her little brother has been getting on her nerves since he first pooped on himself and she was forced to change him. ' How would I know I've been an only child from birth till now' I thought to myself.

"Well the plus is that I get paid to watch the little brat!" Lysa explained in joy. The elevator door opened and we walked to the entrance. I went to check my mailbox and it was empty and I wasn't suprised, but I was still upset. Lysa noticed that I was upset and said" Hey do you want some candy from the vending machine?". I nodded my head and she bought me a snickers and laughed when she handed it to me.

"What's so funny" I asked confused

"I bought you candy to cheer you up and you got a Snickers, hahaha" Lysa said giggling the entire time she was telling me. I looked a the candy bar in my hand and started to grin. I noticed my watch and yelled" Oh crap, were going to be late if we don't run for it.".  We sprinted to school and made it just in time.

" Never........a.....gain......" Lysa barely managed to get out.

"Ditto" I sighed.

I walked to my first class and bumped into my crush Charlie Ezra.

"Are you okay?" Charlie asked me.

"Yeah, thanks" I replied.

"Hey, your Natasha, right?"

"Yeah"

"Here's your book. Talk to you later."Charlie said as he walked to class.

"Yeah see you later."I replied back. 'I hope I'm not blushing to much' I thought to myself. He was not the most popular, but he was still very cute. I get to class and it's on a lesson I already know. I am, as they say, 'a prodigy'. I have a photographic memory that means that all my textbooks memorized and learned. There is only one class that I have that I don't need to use my brain for. Well, technically I do but not my knowlege. That's the 'Prodigal" Class, that is also the class I have had together with lysa since elementary school. 'Prodigal" in this class, however, doesn't mean we are super smart, but rather we all have a 'special gift' that is unique compared to average people. Some can manipulate fire, water, or rocks. Lysa can manipulate electricity ( before, when I said she bought me a candy bar, she manipulated the machine and got free candy) and  I can see and hear peoples thoughts. The teacher doesn't teach us much, sometimes she doesn't even show up for class. Noone complains.

Due to the fact though that I am a true prodigy I get to leave school early but I rarely actually leave. I wait for Lysa in the school library. I sometimes just go online on my phone or I'll read books. I am actually a big bookworm like my father. The bell rings letting everyone go home, I wait for Lysa in front of her class. Mainly because Charlie has that class also; do I seem obssesed?

" Hey Lysa"

"'Tasha"

" You'll never guess what happened!"

"What?"

"I talked to Charlie Ezra."

"You, what?!"

"I talked to Charlie Ezra"

"I want every last juicy detail" Lysa said as she pushed me out the school entrance.

I told her the whole story as we walked back to the dorm.

"Oh, so what are you going to say to him when you see him tomorrow" Lysa pestered. We had just got to the dorm and were walking inside. I walked over to my mail box and grabbed my key to open it.

"I don't know maybe ask if he wants to hang out" I replied. I looked and yet again my mailbox was empty. 'I wonder why I still check when Its been a year now and I still haven't got a letter' I thought to myself. I sighed as I closed my mailbox. Lysa didn't notice she was busy checking out some boxes in the lobby.

"Hey, I think someone is moving in." Lysa said.

"Well they're going to get in trouble if they don't move those boxes. The landlord doesn't like things blocking the lobby."I mentioned.

"Hey theres a name" Lysa said. I looked also and we were about to find out their name until we were interupted.

"Can I help you with something?" someone said behind us.
