‘ms. wilks! can you hear me ms. wilks?’ teacher called. ‘what? yes’ it was the last day of Senior year my ap biology teacher was going over what to expect in collage. i wasn’t like the rest of the people at my school, i was hard of hearing. i lost most of it in a car accident freshman year, i went to my first high school party and my friend got druck and drove us home. he crashed the car into the side of my neighbours house at 45 miles an hour, my impact was so severe to the side of my head, doctors thought i would never talk again, they were wrong, i couldn't hear. but that was beside the point, this was my last 5 minuets of high school and i wasn’t going to spend it thinking about my past. my lab partner tapped me, ‘milly, are you going to the party tonight?’ ‘‘yeah i think so, who’s going?’ ‘everybody!’ we both laughed. ‘GIRLS!’ the teacher yelled, i signed sorry, ‘yeah ill be there’ i said to her as quiet as possible. ‘when are you heading to london?’ ‘3, days, i have to get there early, my aunt and my friend niall are showing me around the city, ’ ‘cool...30 more seconds!’ people in my class started to count down. it was loud so i could hear them, i could only really hear out of my left ear, ‘10, 9, 8, 7..’ the class counted. ‘see you on the other side!’ she said, ‘what?’ the bell rang ‘WHOOOOOOOOO!’ the entire class, including me cheered. i gave my lab partner a hug and we went out the door. ‘MILLY MILLY!’ i felt a hand on my shoulder ‘hey bes’. bes was my best friend, i have known her since 4th grade, when i lost my hearing she learned sign language just so we could still talk to each other in case i lost all of my hearing. she gave me a hug and we walked out the crowded doors into the courtyard, ‘OY!’ a voice called i looked behind me and saw another friend of mine, ‘Linus!’ he picked me, spun me around and gave me a hug. ‘when do you go back to Germany?’ ‘two days! just enough time to go to the party and say goodbye to my favorite American!’ Linus was the foreign exchange student and was always kind to me. ‘oh Linus’ he put me down. ‘who wants to get food’ bes’s hand shot up, ‘where too?’ ‘i don't care lets just go somewhere, we have a a lot to celebrate!’ we got in my Volkswagen Thing and drove.
we arrived at a small cafe and sat down at a small table. ‘so Milly, are you exited for London!’ i looked bes confessed, she finger signed L.O.N.D.O.N ‘oh. yeah! 3 days from now ill be in England with cute British boys and tea’ the three of us laughed. ‘im going to miss you!’ ‘ i know, ill miss you too...hey at least Linus and i will be on the same continent!’ ‘yeah yeah’
before i knew it 3 hours, 4 coffees and many stories later we decided to part untill the party. bes came with me to my house, i lived with my mom and sister my parents divorced a while back and my brother lived with him. as we pulled in my mom ran out of the house screaming in excitement. ‘GIRLS!!!!!’ her arms were flailing, how are you girls, did you have a good last day! she signed. good i signed back. we quickly ran up stairs into my room, to get ready. as we got ready bes asked me, ‘do you think that you ll fall in love over in london?’ ‘no! last time i fell in love, he got druck at a party and made me lose my hearing’ ‘i can see how you would be nervouse then’ she said.
a few hours later w arrived at the party, music was blasting and everyone has having fun. ‘milly bes!’ a voice called. ‘hey!’ i turned around and saw sam, bes’s boyfriend. she and him walked over to the couch and made out. i left them to each other and walked over to some people i knew. we all bombarded each other with question. ‘where are you going?’ ‘you got accepted there?!’ ‘how far away is that?’ ‘when are you leaving?’ i could barly make out the words. mark from my latin class looked at me and said, ‘heard your going to oxford?’ the crowd of people stopped talking, ‘yeah, in london’ ‘thats impressive’ someone said. ‘thanks!’ i took a sip of my non-alcoholic punch and moved on.
i looked at my phone 12:34, i was too tired to party so i went home. before leaving i checked up on bes to make sure she was getting a ride home. ‘hey bes, you ok? i'm going home’ ‘yeah, Sam’s going to drive me home?’ she said sounding a bit tipsy. ‘sam are you sober?’ ‘yes i havn’t drank all night’ ‘good, well i’ll see you later’ i went outside to go get my car, i parked my car a few blocks away. ‘oh Milicent!’ i glanced behind me, a drunk version of Linus stood behind me. ‘do you need a ride home?’ ‘that would be marvelous’ he said slurring every word. as i helped him to my car we hummed a song in his head, i was guessing party rock anthem but couldn't be sure. i pushed him into the passenger seat and drove. ‘you know what!’ he asked ‘what?’ ‘i love...superman!’ i laughed. ‘and you of coarse!’ i laughed again, ‘and here where are!’ i lifted him out of the seat and lead him to his door, ‘ill see you tomorrow then, your coming to help me pack!’ ‘wouldn't miss it for the world’ goodnight Linus. i signed.
