I sit down at my desk and grab my ancient laptop that I didn't want to give up yet.

And you know why.

I went on a website that teachers spend at least an hour of their day to surf through and see if students misbehave on it.

It's like a parental advised Facebook.

I upload the photo from my phone and it takes a while for it to appear on my laptop.

"Finally,"I muttered. The photo had me staring at it for a while, and I snapped my head away from it.

"And...post."I said to myself. Under the photo, I put a caption of 'This is your schools idol? Look again.'

I did the same on Instagram, Snapchat and Twitter. Marvelous....

This was sure to grab the teachers attention.

And to have me tracked. I broke the laptop slamming it against my desk over and over again.

I cleared away the evidence, burning it in my large fireplace. I watched as it burned, savoring Karma.

For sure this would go viral and the teachers may be expelling Nicholas. He deserves it, I'll say that!

The filthy, dirty, rich, arrogant, stupid, ignorant, injustice, hot- wait, what?

Clear that immediately. He is not hot. He is...I can't even find a word for him. The jerk, for Christ sakes.

"Honey, you okay in there?"my dad asks. I shake my head.

"Do you think I am? You told my teacher of my ability, and it is sure to spread! How could you? You...promised."I said as he stepped in.

He hunched his shoulders. "You can't stay in the shadows anymore, honey. If you have a talent,"he said,"Then you have to show it,"I said at the same time.

"But that's not the point! You almost compromised my reputation!"I said. He hugged me.

"Dinners ready."He said as if nothing happened. I pointed to his back as he walked away. "This isn't over!"I screamed.

I felt my eyes glow it's vibrant crimson color and the door slammed shut. Everything swirled around instantly and then settled back in place.

"I can still hide this...."I said to myself. I calmed myself down and walked to the door, down the stairs and into our large dining room.

My mother and father sat at the table, waiting for me as we were about to say our prayers.

"No talking back to your father, Renee,"my mother said softly in her calm and warm voice.

I resisted the urge to roll my eyes and sat down next to them.

"God is good, God is great, thank you for this food on our plate and the life you give us. We appreciate your gifts of love and respect. Amen."my mother said in her etheral tones.

She always had this glow, this pure aura that even a blind man can see.

It was gold, and beautiful. Everything about her was.

"So, how was school honey?"my mother asks. I hold back a snarl and a wicked smile. "Wonderful! How was your day?"I ask.

She frowns at my false voice and continues on with narrowed eyes. "Fine. Are you sure? I can tell when your lying,"she said and I flinched, "and when your planning redemption."
