Memorable Peony

Run run run I told myself. Only a couple more steps till I reach my impossible goal. The bus was only one and a haft away from its stop while I am three blocks away from the bus stop on the opposite side of the bus.

I can't give up now because my Liam is in danger of being harassed by crazed fans, and only I can protect him.

Last night I had a terrible nightmare where Liam was being abuse by over obsessed fans. They were laughing while tearing his white T-shirt apart revealing his muscular chest. Liam turned to me and screamed for help. I was useless because I couldn't move, and save him from those monsters. My body was frozen tight, and I was struggling. As I look up, I saw a single tear drop falling down Liam terrified face. "Get away from him!" I managed to scream, and I suddenly woke up.

I forgotten to set up my alarm clock because I just fell asleep due to exhaustion. It was already 9:10 AM, and the interview starts at 10:00AM. If I am late, they are defiantly not going to accept me.

"Rosa why didn't you wake me up?" I screamed at my older sister. There was no response, so I guess she left for work already.

I hurriedly got ready and out of the house by 9:20AM. While running to the bus stop, I checked on my phone to see what time the bus would come. The small wobbly text on my phone state that one bus would come in the next 3 minutes, and another one in half an hour.

The horrible numbers that I read on my phone woke me up, and I started running like a Champion. Back in high school, I hated P.E., and would always gets Cs or a low B in that class because the damn teacher think I don't participate. Whenever I goof off, and socialize with my classmates, the Coach would always notice, and yelled out," Hey, you 36! This is why you be getting low grades in my class." He calls me '36' because he never put in the time and effort to learn my simple name. But when I am having fun and exercising, I become invisible to him. After dealing with his bullshit for a while, I stopped trying in P.E., but my physical strength worsen since then.

Huff huff huff I begged for air. My lungs are about to explode, and my throat is drier than the Oasis Desert. Finally I could put use to my long thin legs. I felt dizzy for a second, but I kept on moving. I would do anything for my future husband even if my heart explodes from this.

"STOP! Stop stop please." I yelled out to the bus while trying to catch my breath.

When i got on the bus, the bus diver looked at me like I was an insane chick. I turned to my right, and noticed a man taking his bicycle off of the bus, so it was useless for me to scream because the bus would stop anyways.

"Umm, excuses me," I gave the bus driver a awkward smile while I took out my clipper card. I put the card to the scanner, and the bus started moving.

As I walk down the path of shame, I noticed that everyone was staring at me. A red haired girl started laughing, and she was trying to hold her laughter.

A couple of more bus passenger started crackling.

The bus was usually empty, and I picked a window seat in the middle. I was chuckling over how I'll see Liam everyday if I get the job. It was 9:25AM, and if I missed this bus, I would be screwed. I turned to the window to check what street I was on when I noticed my makeup was ruined.

"Oh crap," I said with wide surprised eyes. That's why everyone was staring at me strangely. I am so embarrassed that I could die at that moment.

I was digging through my Gucci bag looking for the makeup remover. 'Where is it?' I panicked. All I could find in my small bag was eyeliners, liquid liner, mascara, etc but no makeup remover.

Desperately looking for a solution I used a wet hand chief, and rubbed my eye socket out. I looked at the mirror only finding out my eyes turned into hideous panda eyes. What is this a zombie movie set? I am not trying to look like a dead creature for my interview. I keep on scrubbing on my eyes for five minutes straight. I was afraid to look into the mirror again, but this the makeup was gone. Only that it caused my eyes to be puffy and swollen red.
