Saving Zeisha - Completed √

Chapter 01

"Usually when people are sad, they don't do anything. They just cry over their condition. But when they get angry, they bring about a change."

~ Zeisha

New York; the city I live in. They call it the city which never sleeps, though ironically I sleep whenever I can. One of those times being right now as I am dozing off in my chemistry class.

"Zeisha! Wake up!" shouts my teacher, waking me up.

"Huh? " I ask while cleaning my drool. I can hear other students snicker at my state.

"Detention for sleeping in my class again, Miss Evans." She then continued her lesson as I tried hard to not fall back asleep. I tend to be a night owl so this happens quite often.

Lakeview State Highschool. A typical high school with nerds, jocks and bitches. I don't have many friends-- just two. Charlotte and Sean. They're the only ones I get along with.

School was the hardest-- it still is. The littlest things here made you stand out, and in my case it was my clothes, my hair, my hobbies, and my taste in general. I know people say that if you get bullied learning to cope with it makes you a stronger person, but in all honesty I don't care.

Oh, and of course saying you want to die means you're depressed and an attention seeker and you may as well just get burned at the stake. So I resort to keeping to myself, staying out of sight at all available times and holding my head up when the rest of the world throws insults my way. It's easy enough to say it doesn't bother me.

I make my way to my biology class, passing everyone in the busy hallway. Suddenly, I feel someone push me hard. I step back to gain balance and look up to the resident smirking bitch. Sophie. My anger builds up quickly.

"Watch it freak." says Sophie as she brings out her hand to push me again. I take ahold of her arm and twist it hard enough to make her whimper in pain, soon enough there's a crowd gathering around us.

"Let go of my arm you freak! Its hurts!" Sophie whimpers. I twist it harder as my anger peaks.

"Don't touch me again or this will seem like child's play. Understood?" I say in a low monotonous voce, smirking at her.

"Yes! Now please leave it!"  her pain-filled voice says. My rage settles down and I let her go. The crowd around us laughs and some of her friends scowl at me from the sidelines.

My blank face doesn't show any emotions as I resume my way to the class.  I was abruptly stopped by a teacher who had watched all this happen, she's a nice teacher and she knows about my anger issues.

It's everyday thing so it doesn't bother me. Just another story to add to my anger department.

"Zeisha, dear. Your anger has become obvious. You need to control it. I am asking for the school counsellor and I want you to meet her after school" she says in a soft but stern voice.

I reluctantly nod to her and give a weak smile. She leaves and I continue my stroll to the classroom.

After school, I grudgingly go to the counsellor. I knock on her door and she opened it after some minutes with a irritated face. Who made her the counsellor? She looks like a bitch. I make myself comfortable on her chair giving her an equally annoyed look. She begins the session with a worn-out question, even though I know she doesn't care.

"How do you feel? What was going through your mind when-"

The lady stops and lowers her gaze when she realizes she was about to say something wrong.

"What was going through my mind when I twisted her hand and broke someone's wrist? Or what was going through my mind when I punched a jerk and couldn't stop my rage?"

I kept my eyes set on the counsellor's as she fell silent, seemingly worried about upsetting the wild animal which sat in front of her.

"Is that the kind of thing you wanted me to speak about? Do you even know why I did that? " I utter in a low and cold voice.

"Zeisha, please listen..." The counsellor starts speaking but I didn't want to hear it. Storming to my feet and kicking out the chair behind me, I storm out of the room and back to my home.

Well that didn't work out.
