Blinded in Myself

*Sia's POV*

"You guys are hanging out now?" I asked in surprise.

"I've already answered that damn question! Not yet! " Bee said irritably. We're sitting in the school garden. Westbridge High School, where the elite in Eucalyptus. The school is quite large and magnificent. This school is divided into 4 buildings. The main building, where teachers and other workers. The second building, where the students are. The third building, swimming pool, basketball court, tennis, soccer, and the last building is for the ballroom. Our school often hold parties or events, therefore the ballroom has its own building

"Ew..that boy is a jerk plus playboy," I said while eating my ice cream.

"It's called love, he said he loves me," Bee said stupidly.

"If that's love, I think I'll pass," I said with a surrendered face

"You've never been in love," Bee said, which immediately hit me. But it's true and real, Bee has been dating and in love for several times, which I can't count, and for me, I've never been looking at boys.

"Kring..."

The bell rang, it's time to go to the class, and start the lesson.

I walked from the bus stop to my house, around 1 km. I wasted my time listening to randomly play songs. Let me tell you who I am, my name is Athanasia Bowers a.k.a Sia, I'm the second daughter of the mighty, Callum Bowers and Emery Santiago. I had an older sister, but she died because of a tragedy, her name was Teagan Bowers, her name means attractive, pretty, or in Irish it means poet. My dad is an oil miner in Pinewell, around 100 km from Eucalyptus. That's why I'm not living with my parents, I live alone and I don't give a damn about that, plus I have freedom. Moreover, my relationship with my parents never went well, so I think it's better and more peaceful if we live apart. Also, I have my best friend, Brooke Tores. She's the only child of Melvin Torres and Sara Hall. Honestly, I'm closer to Melvin and Sara than my own birth-parents. Melvin is a furniture designer, and Sara is a cloth designer. They're so happy, unlike me.

I arrived at the home, and when I'm about to enter my house, I saw my neighbors, Mr. and Mrs. Yang. They are old couples, who are either descendant or indeed Chinese. They put up a sign for sale in front of their house.

"Hi..good afternoon Mr. and Mrs. Yang" I greeted them kindly.

"Oh..hi Athanasia..long time no see you," Mrs. Yang said with a smile on her face.

"Are you getting senile? We saw her this morning" said Mr. Yang with laughing.

"Oops..my bad, I'm sorry dear. You know I'm getting older and older every second" Mrs. Yang said then she holds my hand.

"It's okay Mrs. Yang, I just wanted to ask. Are you selling your house? I saw a sign for sale beside the mailbox" I said, pointing towards the mailbox.

"Oh right, yes dear. We're going to move to Pinewell. You know my son George, he wants us to stay with him" Mrs. Yang said.

"Ah..right, well thank you, Mr. and Mrs. Yang," I said, then I walked towards my house.

"Party at Caleb's House 9 P.M"

Okay, I'm reading a book and suddenly I got a text. You know right, popular ones always get invited to every party and events. I don't even know who is Caleb. Actually, I don't like party, awkward talks, getting drunk and spilling everything, and everything. I like to stay home and reading a book, or sometimes doing my hobby. I guessed Brooke will come to every party, cause we're opposite. She's extrovert and I'm introvert. But, I don't know why I'm the most popular girl in school. I turned off my phone and heading to my bedroom, I like to sit next to my window and read a book. It feels relaxing and fun. I know right, I'm weird.

"Help me to pick out my outfit," Bee said after she came out of nowhere. She showed me two dresses, one is pink and the other one is blue.

"Don't you have anything black?" Bee rolled her eyes.

"Oh, honey. I'm a pastel gal, not like you, black and mysterious, ish" I rolled my eyes, well yeah, in fact, I only have black clothes, black tops, black shirts, black pants, black skirt, black dresses, black shoes, black everything. I don't know why, but I've done that since I was 5.

"Fine, the blue one," I said with lifting my books in desperation. She winks her eyes twice, then going to the bathroom to change her clothes. I continued to read a book as she slammed the door and asking me.

"How do I look?" She said with swirling around.

"Can you just let me read my novel?" She's getting annoyed, then she walked to me and took my book.

"You're reading this again?!" She asked in surprise. "How many times will you read Stephen Kings?" She put the book on my table.

"I just love mystery and horror, I think it'll be fun if I have them in my life" She turned to me and touch my cheeks.

"You'll regret it, for sure" I ignored her. "I'm heading to the party, Ciao" she waved her hand and walking out the door.

"I should've changed my password," I said and then started to read again.

*************

The next day...

"I think I'm too drunk," Bee said. She's laying on her bed, and I'm visiting her after she sent me a text that she's not going to school today.

"Why would you drink dozens of alcohol?" I asked while sipping my chocolate milk, actually, I prefer bananas, but they ran out of banana milk.

"I wouldn't, okay? It's just Tyler. We played the game, and I lose a couple of times. So, I had to drink! I'm losing control" She said with holding a bottle of medicine to cure her drunkenness.

"Losing control?! Did you guys have..."

"Sex" She cut me off. "No..honestly, I don't even know" She gulped the medicine.

"You don't know?! Listen here young lady...let me tell you about sex education" I said with a tone.

"I don't need it, save it for yourself. I know sex education, it's just sex no big deals" I rolled my eyes. "Maybe for you it is, but it's not for me. Why are you still sitting here? Don't you have classes to go?" She said with full of annoyance.

"Fine. Don't text me if you need something" I said as I heading out.

"I know you love me," She said with chuckles. I didn't reply to her and keep walking. You know what? I'm not in the mood to go to school too. Maybe I'll ditch school today and go to the cafe. Sounds perfect for a plan.
