At bottom and aloft

Chapter Two

    I skipped my breakfast today. I woke up at 7:15 and school started at 8am. I looked all over my closet and picked up light violet loose T-shirt, shredded dark jeans and grey sweatshirt which is perfect for late February cold weather. I tied up my hair and put make-up, powder and a little of mascara on my face. I grab my school pack and when I saw 7:40 on my phone, I headed out in front of my friend Crystal's house. Crystal is a blonde girl that used to be something like me, focused on school and well...a little quiet, like, she wasn't talking to entire school. Now she has friends all over school. I don't blame her she can find friends really easily. We used to be best friends ourselves. But then we kind of grew up and we weren't best friends for each other anymore.

   I come in front of her house and ring the bell.
,,Going!" Crystal shouted
Two minutes later I see her blonde hair tied up in messy bun, khaki parka, leggins and dark old-pink long-sleeved T-shirt. Crystal has a really nice clothing taste but it's not my type. Crystal locked the door and we headed to school.
,,I can't believe that it's Monday again. That weekend was so short!" She groans
,,Isn't weekend short always?"
,,Yeah, that's probably fact. Are we supposed to write a test or something today?"
,,I think that Mr. Larsen told something about biology but I'm not sure."
,,I hope not, I didn't revise. When you're at the mountain for a weekend it's hard to revise for some stupid stone test!"
I just noded and for the rest of our fifteen-minute way we walked in silent.

    I unlocked my locker and started to take off my shoes and unbotton my coat when Vincent came. To get to know you who was he, we were kind of best friends last year. We stopped talking or chating when I figured that he wasn't interested in my company so I had to let him go. I haven't had crush on him, NO way! I just liked him a lot.
,,Hi." he said and I was surprised because we haven't talked in a while. I turned around to make sure that he's really talking to me.
,,Emm...hey."
,,How are you?"
,,Are you really asking me or you just have no idea what else to tell me?"
,,No, I really care. You know...I still care about you."
,,Oh, right. That's the reason why you haven't reply on my texts or haven't started conversation, right?"
,,I just don't know how to talk to girls you know?"
,,And that's an excuse?"
,,You know me, Becca."
,,Yes, I know you. I'm sorry for troubling you."
I slamed my locker and walked away. He's still the same. He's always been the same. He just doesn't like me so much as a friend. Just let it go, Bec. Let it go.

    I walked into the classroom, where we had chemistry. I prepared and then looked over class. I saw Olivia and I headed to her desk. Olivia is really kind girl. She has a lots of best friends so I wasn't only one. She has long dark brown straight hair and really beautiful figure. She says that she's fat but everybody knows the truth. I ran into her arms and hugged her tightly.
,,Hey. Did you finish that book I lend to you on Friday?"
,,Well, I started in Friday night and ended in Saturday morning! I couldn't get my eyes of that wonderful story! I didn't sleep at all!"
,,I always told you that I have perfect taste in  books." I replied and started laughing
,,I hope you'll find another one as good as this one."
,,I'm sure I will." And then I heard ringing of our school bell. I noded and came back to my desk.

    When school ended I was hungry but I said to myself and friends that I'm not. I though that I may lose some extra weight when I'll skip a few meals. I won't become anorexic. That's thing that I'm sure about. I'll just get rid of that bad parts of my body and then I'll keep living health life. At home I just change into home clothing and then set to computer. I found tips and manuals how to start new and healthy life.

,,Change your look, dye your hair and refresh your closet. Find your style."
In next line was said
,,Focus on school because future is important."
,,Keep writing a journal."
,,Found new friends."
,,Do positive thinking. Meditate."

    I read all of those tips and tricks and then I saw myself going to store. I bought a diary and when I got home I started writing...

Dear diary,
I decided for some changes in my life so here I am. First things first. I think I'm gonna get a haircut. And also go through my closet because there are some pieces that I don't like and don't wear. I think I'm gonna like my new life. Don't you think?
