Beep, beep, beep
Ah yes, that would be my dreaded alarm reminding me that it was Tuesday and I had school, yay. Note the sarcasm. I rushed into the bathroom and had a shower thoroughly washing my hair. I jumped out of the shower and got dressed into my uniform. I threw my hair up into a ponytail and ran out the door but not before I grabbed a banana for breakfast. I checked my phone and it read 8:30 am school started at 8:40... I started to run my feet still making dust clouds around them from the impact of my shoes against the floor. I didn't have time to go to my locker so I just ran to my form room my shoes leaving footprints from the dirt on the corridor floors. The cleaners weren't going to be happy. *shrugs* oops.After the torturous day was over, I headed back home to get my speaker. Wait whaaat? Why a speaker? Well you will find out. As soon as I grabbed my speaker, I rushed to my safe place. That's right, the secret garden. I synced my phone to the speaker using bluetooth and blasted my music knowing that no one could hear it. I began to relax just dancing along to the music when I heard voices from the other side of the wall. I turned off my music and listened in to their conversation. 'Yeah I know right! She is so weird with her eyes and shit.' I knew that voice... it was Leah! 'Ya even though she is super powerful she can be really annoying and she hasn't even used her powers yet! It's funny how we are only her friends because of something that has even proved she has' Ok now that was Morgan! I soon realised that they were talking about me and tuned out of their conversation. I couldn't help but be upset at what I had just heard and I couldn't wrap my head around the powers part - I didn't have powers!
Silently letting the tears pour down my face, I finally wiped them away and promised myself that I wouldn't cry again because I had been doing it way to much lately. I got up and grabbed my stuff making my way out of the garden. I had been from relaxed to upset to angry in a matter of seconds. I wouldn't let this stuff get to me. I made my way home and packed my gym bag. I set off for the gym thinking I really needed to toughen up and payed for a private room and began to train myself. after i was done, I was a sweaty mess and made my way home.
This was my routine for the next couple of weeks - wake up, school, garden, gym, homework, sleep. Of course in this time i had been avoiding my 'best friends' and basically everyone to be honest. I didn't feel like confronting anyone. Even though the bullied still seemed persistent though.
Today, I went into the woods to try and find anything that can help me. I'm still confused about the so-called powers that Morgan and Leah were talking about. After a while I figured that I wouldn't find anything even at first I knew that there wouldn't be anything here but it was my last resort. I decided to climb a tree seeing as I was surrounded by them. I latched my hands onto branches and decided to see if I could climb it without my feet - to put my working out to use. When I reached the top my arms were aching but it was exhilarating. I felt like no one could touch me and I was on top of the world - I know cheesy. After about an hour of just sitting and thinking, I made my way back down the tree and ran home to keep my stamina up.
When I got home it was already dark so I microwaved some leftover food and after eating headed upstairs to bed. I awoke to the blissful sound of the birds singing their hearts out trying to get my attention from my sleep and let me tell you, they succeeded. After that horrible start, I couldn't get back to sleep so I decided to get up for the day. Showering was bliss, as per usual, and breakfast was yummy seeing as it was the weekend so my mum cooked pancakes. After that, I made my way back to the woods and climbed my tree again this time using my legs too. Soon after that, I heard voices below me and I adjusted my position so I could see and hear who it was...
