-Lauren, breakfast is ready!- my mother said from the kitchen.
   -Okay mum!- I said.
   I brushed my hair and left the room. In the kitchen I met my mother, my father and my older brother. They were already sitting in the chairs. I said good morning to them and sat too. I grabbed some bread and put butter on it.
   -First day of school right?- my dad asked.
   -Yes! And the last year!- I smiled.
   It was the first day of school but my last year. Angels only have humans school until they got sixteen. I'm fifteen now. When we complete sixteen years and finish school we are able to start our preparations to be an angel. We have a specific school to angels. It can be in the humans world or not. We stop growing up when we have twenty years. Humans think that angels are immortal but we're not. We can live one hundred years but we're not immortal.
   Our wings only appear at the age of fifteen . I already have mines!We also live in the human world and are just like humans. Angels that have children stay in the human world until the younger member of the family reaches the adult age. Sixteen years old. My parents and my brother go to heaven almost everyday. I went there once. Actually I was born in there.
   -I'll take you to the school- my brother said.
   -Do you mean by flying?- I whispered.
   -Lauren!- my father said- you know it is forbidden!
   -I know I'm sorry...- I said. We can't in any way show to humans our powers.
   I finished my breakfast and waited for my brother. Angels don't have to eat when they are in their spiritual form but the human body needs to eat.
   My brother and I left home and started walking to the school. He is nineteen and finished is angel preparation last year.
   -Well little sister be careful and have fun!- he said when we arrived at school and kissed my head- if you feel the presence of a demon call me.
   Obviously there are demons too. There is the heaven and the hell. Humans that were good go to heaven and the bad ones go to hell. For almost a century angels and demons have been living in wars. The Devil and God are always trying to end this fights. My parents fear very much the dark side. They always told me to fear demons and the Devil. I have never seen a demon. I really want to see one someday but I'm afraid too. I'm very curious to see how they look.
   -I know Jungkook!- I said and walked to the inside of the school. I waved to him and he disappeared. I met my friend Violet. I hugged her.
   -Was that your brother?- she asked.
   -Yes he brought me today.
   -Oh I wanted to see him... he is so cute!- she said.
   -Stop saying that about my brother!- I laughed- he is too old for you!
   -I know I know- she laughed too- but he looks like an angel!- she smiled.
   -Yeah he really does- I laughed.
   We had school the all morning. The students and the teachers are the same. We had lunch in a restaurant close to our school. We went to my house and watched a movie in the afternoon.
   Violet had dinner with us and then she went home.
    I went to my room and my brother come with me. I started packing my bag for the next day while Jungkook sat in my bed.
   -So how was your day little sister?-he asked.
   -It was normal- I answered picking the clothes for the next day- and what about you? How was the work?
   -Good but exhausting! The new adult angels met God today and I had to take care of their files and documents- he laid in my bed.
   -How is God? How do he look like?- I asked and sat beside him. I was very curious.
   -He is amazing! Everybody loves him and he loves everybody! But besides that he looks like a normal person- he got up- well goodnight little sister- he kissed my forehead and left my room.
   I want to meet God! Does he really look like a normal person?
   I took off my clothes of that day and looked at myself in the mirror. I really look like a human too. I’m not very tall, I have long brown hair and brown eyes. My parents and my brother said that if the appearance of an angel changes when he is in his spiritual form it means that that angel is special or it is a demon. If the hair changes from brown to blond and the eyes from brown to green it is special. If the hair changes from brown to blond and the eyes from brown to blue it is a demon. Normal people like my parents and my brother don’t change.
   The only thing I have that is different from humans is two marks on my back. My wings marks. The adult angels usually do tattoos on it to hide between the humans. My brother has that tattoo.
   I laid in my bed after I dressed my pajama and then I fell asleep.
