Visions-Chapter 1

Visions

Hell. I never expected this. I never expected this at all. I never expected that Evermore, a boarding school ( that my parents can afford to pay) look so gloomy grey all over the place. The trees look dead. Well to me. The sky above was full of tumultuous, dark and ragged clouds. I'm not surprise if there is a cemetery around this area. I sighed. Picking up my bags, I walked into Evermore, hoping for the best. I never like the sunshine nor the snow. I love the dark, rainy weathers. I was 15 minutes early. I walked over to the office,hoping someone lead the way to my dorm or something. I pushed the door forward and stepped into the office. "What in the world", I muttered. This can't be happening to me. The walls is grey, crack holes everywhere. A plant at the corner was wilted and is an odd colour of brown. The lamp is too dimmed. This place is really scary, I thought. I walked over to the counter, putting my bags down. There is a woman, typing furiously on the keyboard. She has greyish white hair, neatly tied up into a bun. She has less wrinkles though. She is maybe forty or fifty in my opinion. "Ahem", I cleared my throat, hoping to get the woman's attention. "Yes? May I help you" she says,finally looking up from her computer. Her eyes seems..tired? "I'm a new student apparently..", I replied, blushing. I'm always nervous, awkward and shy. "Oh! You must be Luciana Hale! We are expecting you. Welcome to Evermore", she exclaimed while assuring me with a polite smile. She shuffles in her seat, searching through stack of papers. After seems like eternity, she pass me my schedule, my room number etc. Dorm 689. I looked up and the woman was grinning widely. I smiled at her before turning my back and picking up my stuff. I closed the office door behind me slowly. Suddenly, I stopped walking and my mind was total chaos. The image in my mind is blur, hard to see. There are trees everywhere,and there is a dead end. It was dark, probably night time. And there is a guy, standing right in front of me. His features is hard to see, but his eyes looks haunting. Careful Luciana, is just the beginning. And all faded away, just like a dream, and I was back to reality. I stood rooted to the ground, unblinking. It could mean only one thing. "My visions," I whispered shakily. "They are back".
