Springing hearts

Ruthless

Shining sun, chirping birds, start of a "new day" I murmur as I get up from bed. The house is rather dark, filled with cold sorrows and unwanted glare of sunlight that was on the clock. " six forty five, oh shit." I whisper as I head my way down to the bathroom. I freshen myself and put on the same old clothes that I wore the whole week with the same old routine. I hear my mom waking up. She is rather that " back in my days " type of person. " Its almost seven why are you still here?" As she says with lack of excitement in her face. "I just gotta put on my clothes and I'll head out" I yell from across the room. I head out, as the bus is assigned to arrive at 7:15 which is usually like 7 minutes before it's actual time. I make my way to the bus stop, glaring at my friend, miserably standing there as he knows he's going to deal with seven hours of bs. Arrived at school, ate the usual muffin and loud buzz that signals the start of a school day. The school is on the sketchier side. Students come here to smoke pot or finding girls who up for quick fuck. It's time, the most hated class in this school, Language arts. The class is boring as it is but, on top of that, a teacher who is like a typical grandma, but always up in people's business. " Hitesh, you know what you're doing ?" She asks me. " ya I'm good" I say with lack of enthusiasm. She approaches me. " Oh for fucks sake" I murmur. She starts critiquing my work. I pull out my phone to check out the time. "Hand it over " she says. " I was just looking at the time" I say with bold confusion on my face. "You'll get it back at the end of the hour" as she snatches my phone. Class is over, got my phone and headed out for lunch. I get a pizza and a container of apple juice. The pizza there looks like its been made out of plastic and then chewed ten times and spat out. In lunch, it's us, the three musketeers. Fahad, Mani and myself. Me and Fahad just usually crack up at each other's inside joke as Mani just sits there spying on our conversation and eating. 15 mins in, we're finished and we head to the gym to play some soccer. The school is very strict against people using the gym during lunch as there isn't someone in charge Incase something happens. We play soccer and we hear footsteps. I tell them to hide under the bleachers as its our safest hiding spot. I look to see, and it's the dean. Looking to see if someone is up here. But he leaves after blankly staring at the gym for ten seconds. " yo the fatass is gone, let's go" Fahad says as we get the ball. I go to the next class as I drip sweat, my eyes all sweaty and wet.
