The Blurred Lines In Between

As The Years Go By

----Ruri P.O.V----
I tapped my feet happily in extreme anticipitation ready to see if my scar was gone, I ran down the stairs and pulled of the bandaid only to see a small little dot of a scar left, I rubbed a little dot of cream on it and grabbed the smallest bandaid I could find, the bandaid was extremely small and rare to find but them being doctors, they had just what I needed, I slowly stuck it on so I did not make any mistakes, it stuck to my fingers so it took a while to get on completely. This was not the only thing to be excited for, today was the last day of school until summer break, I turned ten in december so this was the biggest thing to look foward to, I was so excited to move on to the fourth grade, mostly because I want to get out of this school, it is really old and creaky and sometimes you step on a broken floorboard and you have to pull out your foot, with a high anticipation, I ran up stairs and got ready to go, I left with out Juz today and ran to school, I actually did not see Juz there all day, I went to lunch happily and sat with my friends before the end of the day, we all gave each other small gifts to show we will stay friends until next school year, I went back to class for the last three hours as the teacher basically lectured us of how the fourth grade will be harder and that we need to practice over summer, he went around saying goodbye and good luck with life because he probably will not see us again. It was kind of sad but at the same time, it is q normal thing and everyone grows and has to leave eventually, I stayed and listened to the  teacher tell stories about his past and I was proud to be his student, he was a teacher to be respected and honored by us students, he was kind to us most of the time and taught us very well, we all planned to give him a big thank you to honor him goodbye, he thanked us back and shed a few tears and how he would miss us so much, we all gave him a big hug good bye as the last few minutes approached. For the rest of the class we sat and watched a short little cartoon about grammar and the teacher gave us snacks and juice boxes but still I wondered why Juz did not come at all, it was a little worrying but at the same time, I knew it was okay, maybe he just was not interested in this stuff or never feels like the last day is important. I guess I understand, the last fivw minutes struck and who knows how fast it went, I looked back and mumbles goodbye.
----Summer----
During summer I practiced cooking a bunch of cupcakes and other baked goods and perfected my soup, over the summer I also checked to see if my scar was gone, turns out it was, I talked to Juz sister a lot and learned her name is Nazo, I thought it was a really cute name. I watched a bunch of T.V but also learned how to use a computer, they are really fun to play on, I played all night once but was really tired in the morning, It was a great summer but it will end eventually sadly.
----4th Grade----
The sunmer flew by, and fourth grade approached, the matireal was easy but the teacher was deathly scared of Juz and never bothered with him, all my friends slowly got smarter and more mature and along with them me to but not to mature just average for my age and I knew all of the things I used to not know were dangerous which explained alot about what happened that night, I still remember that but the pain is numb now and I am happy, the fourth grade also flew by and it was summer break yet again.
----5th grade----
After the next summer was over it was time for the supposebly hardest last year of elementary school, I was excited but also nervous to leave, This teacher was mean to but refrained a lot from it also being deathly scared of Juz, so we did not see much homework either, it was not a good sight for Juz though, the whole school its self was bad for him, yet again the year is goinf by very quickly, Why my scar dissapeared the scars on my heart were still there although numbed. The end of the year was here, and a scary end indeed.
----Summer 3----
I was anxious all summer because of going to middle school, the parents, no they said to call them marry and leo, had told me there is nothing to worry about, I woke up every morning with a little sweat still worrying, but I knew I would be okay, Today was when I also get a phone, they let me pick out whatever one I wanted and mine had a dog on the case with its tounge out, I could not wait to exchange numbers with all of my friends when school starts.
----6th grade----
The kids meaner, the bigger halls, and the more classes, I could not see anything good about these changes but I got used to the boring and long school days, but me and my friend exchanged numbers and talked all the time, it was so fun, me and Juz were not in any of the same classes and we never really became good friends, it is kind of sad because I thought he  would end up my best friend but i guess friendships end no matter how far they dif. The summer approached again and yet anothey year gone.
----7th grade----
This year Juz became unrpaped and started tallking to me constantly turns out we did end up becoming best friends, whenever I was sad I knew he would let me cry on his shoulder, I am way more mature and not such a baby anymore and I think its time to get rid of that bad nickname I gave him instead I will call him Ju, I made more friends as time passed, matured more and more, and grew taller, it was crazy how fast time flew, and how much would change in the future   here.
----8th grade----
Finally the last year of middle school, a bit scary but I am ready, I joined home ec this year because they had cooking so it was exciting for me and I could make tasty cakes to eat, like red velvet and cheese cake, I became known as a master chef to all my peers, I thought it was kind of funny and at the same time liked it because I love cooking so much, I decided that in high school I will change my image and be kind to everyone I could! It was hard to anticipate was the future held, This year actually felt longer then the others maybe because a lot of stuff happened, I entered into a school cooking contest and I made it into the county and following the state, and then the country, I would have been able to go into national but I was to young to be accepted into it so they made the second place go instead but it was just exciting that I won. I could not believe my own eyes,  the time came to pick a academy inside my new school, I picked a cooking academy, I did not want to be a chef but I just really enjoy cooking so it was worth it, I also picked two electives one was another cooking class and the second home ec to learn things besides cooking. I still don't leave middle school for two months but I am prepared, Ju has also decided what he is going to do but he did not tell me. Since my scar dissapeared I still have a burn mark that they need to heal by putting a ice block to num it then wrap it up so it triggers new skin to grow over it, it happened really fast and heal. It was all gone and my leg looked good and clean, after it was done healing, I needed to not walk on it for three days so I took off three days, the end of the year was here and it was time to leave exciting and worryful but it will be okay. I grabbed my stuff and headed out the gate to the school and sighed, another school gone, one to go, I got determined and walked home to a new summer that awaits to a new year, scary right?
----summer----
I spent most summer just talking to Ju and Nazo, it was a pretty boring summer but mostly because I still needed to be careful on my leg and could not go out much, I sat inside the whole time eating food and playing games, also texting friends who pretty much did the same, I really was sad this particular summer because I si have not figured out why Ju never shows the last school day, it is bugging me and I am extremely curious to know, I have been watching him and studying closely not learning a thing from him. I practiced math and all my other core subjects a lot and did more cooking, I needed to make sure I was prepared for my classes in the 9th grade, I was still nervous and curious about Ju, his sister did not know either, I asked his mom and dad but they said thats not their imformation to give out and told me to go ask him but I am nervous to. I braved up and asked but he said he just feels like it, I can not accuse him of lying but I guess it is whatever. I paced around and continued studying, I almost studied every subject except I have not cooked much lately so I grabbed my pot and made soup for everyone, I also baked cookies and cake, all tasting delicious. We all ate them happily, I am 14 currently and when I moved in I was 8 it is amazing how fast time it. I decided to cook even more, so I cooked potatoes and some eggs. It was a short summer though that would come to an end sooner then I knew or anyone really knew, in fact it was so fast I could not even blink.
----Day Before First Day Of High School----
I had to go shopping to get all my schools supplied and also made a cake to share with my friends at school. I also need to customize my new image but I am ready, I decided I will be super nice and I am sticking to that, I practiced being nice and it is prettt easy. I just hope to make a lot of friends by doing this, I practiced a little more and made extra extra caked because I just wanted to cook more and more. I was prepared but first I need to thin about lunch, I am thinking to make soup and share with everyone and that is what I decided, now that I have perfected my soup it takes an hour long to make and its so hard to make, I finished it a put it in a container that keeps it hot forever. It is a really good container, I packed everyrhing up and put it away getting ready for bed ane fell asleep thinking good thoughts about tommorow and the future to come, get ready high school, here I come!
