"What do you see? What do YOU perceive as the supernatural of the matter around us?" The teacher looked around whilst extending his arms to push his understanding onto the class.
"No one? No one at all?" He shook his head in discontent. However, before he could turn back to the board, through the corner of his eye he saw a small pale hand in the air. He sighed. "Yes Marley".
A little girl-no taller than five feet- with dark black hair, a black dress with holes at the basal, and black shoes was the only one to be seen at the back of the class. Not a speck of color could be spotted on her besides the pale white skin shown beneath her clothing.
She inhaled. Then, with an exhale, she answered: "People".
"People?" The teacher questioned. "Yes," she responded; completely serious. The other kids spouted giggles.
"Could you, um, explain Marley?", asked the teacher. Marley tilted her head.
"What's there to explain? People are the paranormal".
The teacher couldn't seem to pick the words to use.
"I could explain but - "
The bell rang throughout the halls, interrupting Marley's sentence.
"Um, time to dismiss. Make sure to study your multiplication tables for homework and Marley, I need to -"
The teacher looked for Marley towards the back of the class but she was nowhere to be found.
HELLO, people of the universe! I have been MIA for forever but I've actually been writing on the side. I already have up to 10 chapters on this and I really hope it's good.
Anyways, peace out✌️4 now, bye👋
