I'm wondering how it's going to be back in school. Junior year was hectic, all the crazy things just wouldn't stop replaying in my head. " You're rude!" My mind just keeps shouting at me. Why won't it stop? After 5 minutes I started to calm down, I finally decided to take my sleeping pills tonight. I haven't used them in awhile. Only because I hated feeling drowsy and really tired. But since I finally start work tomorrow I need rest for a long day at work. Who knows maybe my life will finally be great after awhile.
It's been 3 weeks into summer and I actually thought I would get myself together, after he decided to leave I never thought I'll recover. Maybe it's true, I can never keep myself happy. Sigh, what a cruel year for me. After a long pause I started to feel drowsy and next thing you know I'm dreaming. There I was all happy and all smiles, I looked fake. I started to laugh, until I realize he was there. Why was he here? It's my wonderful dream, and he is here. I started to walk back, then all of a sudden he turns towards me, smiled his devilish smile and whispered, "You did this to me." Then he started running towards me. I was running now, and crying. Wake up self, wake up Aaliyah!
I woke up sweating and tearing. It's been like this for awhile, every dream I had where I was happy, he was there ruining it. I guess I have to get over it someday. I looked at the time and it read, 10:23 am. I couldn't believe I slept for 9 hours. I haven't done that in so long. I stared blankly in my room and realize how completely dull it became since I took down some posters and pictures. I didn't bother to move from my bed until my family left. Ever since the incident, my family and I had not connected or talk. Only because I did not want to. Once in awhile I'll bump into them by accident, but we had never said anything to each other but hi or bye. It's sad I know, but it doesn't bother me.
An hour pass, and I hear all the cars going. That means everyone went to work, and I have the house to myself as always. When I came down, there was no food on the table. It broke my heart. Although I don't associate with them, I still thought they'd save me food, but every time my hopes are high it comes crashing down, like always.
I decided I didn't want breakfast, so I went back upstairs to change and get ready for work. Since my car been taken away as well, I had to walk to work. Which was 2.7 miles away, and it will take me at least 30 minutes to walk. So as I got ready, I started to see the cuts and stitches on me. All of a sudden, the voices came back.
"You're not okay." My heads pounding.
"Go back to him." No. I don't need or want to.
I screamed, and the voices went away. Why does this always happen? I rushed to put on the rest of my clothes and ran downstairs. But the more I walked towards work, the voices are getting stronger.
"Walk here."
"You can't run from him."
"He'll come back for you!"
"Hey you okay?" I look up and it's a boy. He looks about my age and he's kind of cute.
"Are you okay?" I nod my head, and then I realize the voices are gone.
He picked me up with those gentle hands. He smiled and he started walking towards his car. I don't know why I feel so happy after seeing him but I started to frown because it will be the last time I'll see him. Sigh, oh wells it was good while it lasted. I gave one last look towards where the strange boy parked, and then head towards to work.
As I spot my working place, I started to feel that wound in my chest. I opened the door and I couldn't believe my eyes.
