Anna's POV
After an hour has passed, I decide that Megan won't come home anymore now. She's...she's dead.
My best friend gone. Killed Hume, once again. I had so many best friends that died because of me. They all think it's suicide.
It's never sucide. It's always me. Why, out of anybody in the world, why!? Why me? Why did I have to get uncontrollable Telekinesis!?!
I often wonder this question. I mean, I can't be the only one in the world who has this...right? No way, can I be the only one. Seriously, I can't be the only one.
"Megan, I know you can't hear me. But I want you to know that I'll miss you," I cry. Megan was my best friend. My only friend. It will kill me to see her die struggle. She tries to breath. "Megan, I have to. If I don't, you're never going to be treated right," I say, taking a piece of glass from the window she broke. I lift my hand and bring it streight back down.
Blood squirts everywhere from the stab wound, as I twist the glass around in her heart. Megan chokes on her own blood. She was already dead after she tried to breath. I throw the glass down.
I stand and pull Megan by her leg into the river. I let her body float down the river. She's gone now.
I run back to the orphanage and streight into the bathroom. I turn the shower on and take off my clothes. Quickly, I jump in and let the water clear the blood from my body. My hair smells like rotting wood and blood. I wash it with shampoo the conditioner.
After I wash out my hair, I wash off the blood from my body and turn off the water. I wrap myself with a towel and grab my clothes then head upstairs.
I go into my room and pull out new clothes. I pull them on and lay down in bed. Grabbing my phone, I click on my contacts. Megan is the last and final contact on the list. After scrolling through four different contacts, I find Megan. Then I press delete.
Now that that's done, it's time to rest. I close my eyes and drift to sleep. While I sleep, I dream of what would happen if I didn't have this God damn ability.
Once I wake up, the feeling of guilt is stuck in my heart. I start crying out of no where. "How could I've done this to her!?!" I cry.
I look at the alarm clock. It was 12:35. Shit, I slept late! I struggle to sit up but stand just perfectly.
I walk to my door and out into the hall. Melissa was out in the hall with some guy. She sees me and I start walking the opposite direction. "Anna! Wait up!" she calls. Shit, she wants me to talk to this guy, doesn't she?
I stop and turn around to face her. "That's Anna Helena (it sounds like Helayna) Crow. Her parents-" "My parents killed themselves because of their abilities," I interrupt. Melissa looks at me in shock. "I thought that y-" "Nope. They killed themselves. I gotta go that way now so bye," I say, turning to walk away.
"Anna Helena Crow, get over here now. Do not make me tell Jess that you're disobeying your cousin," Melissa growls. I turn around again and look at her. Her eyes told me to look at the guy, so I did. He stairs back at me and gives me a smile. I wave hi and he waves back. This is the first.
I open my mouth to speak. "No need to say your name. I already know," the guy says. I look away for a second then back. "I was actually going to ask you what your name is," I say. The guy nods at me and looks down a bit. "Jordan. Jordan Witzigreuter," he says. I nod and put my hand out to him. He shakes my hand.
"Nice to meet you, Jordan," I say. Jordan nods and takes his hand back. "Same to you, Anna," he says to me. Melissa motions me to go down stairs so I do.
After walking down the stairs, Arianna runs up to memento smiling. "Oh my god, Anna! He's here! He's here!" she cheers. I look at her. "Who?" I ask. Ari jumps up and down giggling like a school girl. "Jordan Witzigreuter! From The Ready Set! Oh my god, I'm so happy!" she says, still really hiper.
I slap her. "Arianna! Slow the fuck down!" I growl. Ari breaths. "The Ready Set is in this building! He's going to adopt someone!" Ari cheers. Wait...that guy I met in the hall? He's from The Ready Set!
"Ari, I just met him! Be was looking at me and...trying to talk to
me...what! The! Fuck!" I say with craze in my voice. Ari looks at me.
"YOU MET HIM!?!" she screams. I cover her mouth. "Yes!" I whisper. I push Ari a little bit. Melissa and that guy walk in. "Hello again," he says. I wave at him. "hi," I say.
Melissa smiles at Ari and motions for me to follow her. She takes me into a room with the guy. "Anna, go start packing up! Jordan decided to adopt you," she says with concern in her voice. I run upstairs and pack my backpack and a suitcase. Ari runs in. "Anna! He adopted you, didn't he!?!" she growls. I nod at smile. "I was adopted finally!" I say.
Arianna pushes me. "No fair!" she stomps. I run past her and down the stairs. Melissa gives me a look. You know that you need to control yous Telekinesis. And your mind reading. I'm the only one that knows about your abilities.
Melissa knows? Shit! How'd she find out! "Be careful, Wallflower," Melissa laughs. Why does she always call me that?
I nod. I follow Jordan out to his car. More like badass black Hummer! Damn, he really is from The Ready Set. "Dude, your car is badass!" I comment. Jordan opens the back door for me to put my stuff there. "Thank you. So...ready?" he asks. I step into the passenger seat.
"Ready as I'll ever be," I admit. Jordan starts to drive off. I watch out the window. "What's your favorite radio station?" Jordan asks. I look at him. "Um..." is all I can say. Jordan points to the radio. "Feel free," he says. I start to mess with the radio, making sure it's on the perfect station. Finally, I reach my favorite station. Sarcasm by Get Scared is playing. "This station," I say. Jordan laughs. "What? You listen to this?" he asks. I nod and look down. "I do sometimes too," he finishes. Wow, he does? I never thought he'd say that.
