I look down at my mothers necklace and smile, I can do this. do what? well school. It might seem so easy to stay away from water but its not. it gets hard sometimes. but that's life, sometimes its easy, sometimes its hard. I let out a sigh, role out of bed, get ready,

grab my bag and out the door I go! I run through the town

'SMACK!'

I fall on the cobble stone ground, dead fish go everywhere.

Alex's POV:

like my day can get any worse. Well it does! now I'm on the ground with my crate of fish everywhere.

"Hey watch where your going a** ho..." I pause.

I can get knocked over by anyone in the whole wide world but the person who I have to get hit by is Ama.

Ama's POV:

I look around at the mess I've made. I guess today can go wrong.

A hand appears in front of my face.

"Are you ok? here grab my hand"

I look up, it's Alex...

I grab onto his hand and he pulls me up off the floor. I'm center-meters away from ice that once kept fish cold in a crate.

"I'm so sorry! Ill clean up this mess and I'll pay for the damaged fish... obviously you can't use fish that have been on the ground" I give him a nervous giggle.

"It's fine, luckily these fish are being thrown out"

"Why are they being thrown out?"

"There old..."

"Oh of course!" Now I'm smiling like a clown. make this day end already.

After cleaning up the fish with Alex we head to school.

I swear this is the first time being early to Miss Chambers class, she's not even here yet.

I slump in my chair hiding my face in my hands.
