Just Silence

Jacky

The light grew darker from the hallway, the sounds of footsteps walking closer to my door. I don't dare to find out what it was but all I know it was coming for me.

~~~Just Silence ~~~

It was early in the morning I rose from my bed and wiped my eyes. I slipped into my soft poke doted slippers and walked to the bathroom. Running my hand against the wall as I entered the room, soon walking out to get dressed. I finally walked down stairs to find a plate of warm toast and eggs waiting for me. Silence. Like always.

My mother and father always leave to work early, so no time for goodbyes or at lest a glance. It was summer here and I loved it. But it was lonely. And Silent. Always silent. I rarely had friends and didn't get out much at all, all day everyday I just sit here doing nothing but waiting for the time to go by for that special moment. The moment when you best friend gets off work, but like I said I have no friends, I don't but this friend was on the internet. I have to wait for the time to hit 4:30 so I can text the person that I loved, but it was sad..I never actually met them.

But that's fine I didn't need to know what they look like. I didn't need to know who they are, they were just there to talk to. Just to talk to. We would talk about all kinds of stuff, Life, that was always our main topic. We 'known' each other for two years now and I tell them everything but I hate waiting. I hate waiting in this Silence. So I turned on the T.V.

*In coming on the breaking news,
The missing young boy found dead and gutted on Ocean Side Park. Young boy Adam Western age 7 was found murdered in cold blood. The killer still loose an-*

"Ugh I hate that crap and all these sick people of the world" I let out a sigh. Then I looked at the clock and it showed 8:00 AM. "Hm it's time", I went up back to my room with all of my paintings on the walls, "Time to decorate something ugly and make it beautiful." I took one of my old rag dolls and set it on my bed, then I took out a case that's had all kinds of colored markers in it. I sat on the bed and began to draw on the rag doll, drawing a huge smile on its face with a dark red marker. I stroked every line so carefully to make sure it was perfect and beautiful. And I did that all day long, in Silence. Just silence.

~~4:30 PM~~
