---------------------------

The next morning i wake up i felt a bit upset and i knew it would get some kind of a bad day.
That was that with bad days, you can never see them coming but once they've arrived you can't escape them either.
How i hated the feeling of being behind that glass wall where you can see and hear everything but for gods sake you can't influence anything. Nor are the people aware of your presence.
But i knew too well that this wasn't about bad days anymore.

With an odd feeling i notched my family situation out of my thoughts and walked down the stairs.
Right in front of me i saw Hannahs long brown hair.
As she heard the steps squeaking behind her she turns over with an unreadable expression on her face.

"Good you're here, so we finally can get out of here" she hisses.

I raise a brown at her. What?
That's nothing i suspected leaving her mouth.

I grab my bag and the toast from the counter and head after Hannah.

"What about your sister?" i mumble while eating my meal.

"She wasn't at home last night and she still isn't. Mum is at her friends to discuss the situation" i can make out the hurt tone in her voice though she tries to cover it up.

"...and you, you go to school even if maybe something happened to her?," i stumble.
I was confused.
But i hope she hadn't run away because of me or because of my soup..?
Okay wow that was insane, i quickly brushed those thoughts off.

"She will come home if she decides to" Hannah answers gruffly.

We went down the driveway to school, Hannah hitting the pedal a bit too heavy.

Her brows were drawn together and i watched how something what happened inside of her, fought her.
I really wanted to say something comforting her in any way but i didn't feel like the right person to do so, i knew too less about their life and the situation here.

"Does this happen more often?"

She shoots me a quick glare before putting her eyes back on the road.

"She never stayed away over night before.." the gasp she let out wasn't angry anymore but sad.

I nod and start to slightly chew on my inner cheek.

We come closer to the school ground and she pulls the car into a lot near the main entrance.

"See you then" Hannah already was on her way to another building behind the main ones.
If Calum would do the actual job he had, i probably would know where she was going.
A tiring sigh came over my lips.

I remind myself that i still had to get the number for my locker so i straight walk to the schools office.

Mrs Hall is sitting at her table, tipping something focused on her Mac screen.
I cleared my throat because she hadn't noticed me when i entered.

"Mrs Hall?"
Finally she looks up.
"Oh Lord, never scare me like that again,girl!" her voice pitched high.
"Uhm..sorry.." i stutter, "anyways ... i still need to know where my locker is"

With one hand she's adjusting her glasses while she stares at me as if i would talk a foreign language.
She needs a few more minutes before she finally gets what i want from her.
