   I opened my eyes to a bright light, my ceiling boob light. My eyes dilated, trying to get to the sudden brightness after a while of darkness. I let out a yawn, looking around. I got up, scratching my head. I jumped to a pile of clothes, dirty and clean.
   I dug into them, clothes I found to my appeal I sniffed.
   I finally got a good outfit, changing into it. I looked at myself in the mirror, feeling self conscious about my looks. I then turned to the sink, brushing my teeth. I finished up, brushing my knotty hair next.
   I raced down the stairs, quickly grabbing a bowl and a cereal box. I poured the food into the bowl, then poured the milk into it. I ate quickly as I usually did when I was in a rush.
   Before I could leave I slowly walked to a small area with candles, flowers and a single picture.
    I gave out a small smile, a single tear running down my reddened face. I bent to my knees, giving a silent prayer. I hugged the picture, putting it back carefully.
    Finally, ready to leave, I raced out the door, lightly skipping towards the bus stop.

*sorry for the shortness, I tried to get this out and I'm very tired <3 *
