Daughter Of Chaos

CHAPTER 9: Unleashment of emotions

Getting our reports day.

Bruce POV

It was the day we were getting our reports and I sat in the class nervously thinking that I had failed. I don't know why but for the first time I actually cared about my report. I guess I had a little hope that Natasha was not joking about Julie. "Bruce Benjamin." The teacher called out my name to come fetch my report and my legs became so heavy. I walked up to the desk where the teacher sat and she handed me my report and I smiled at her and said a silent thank you and went to go take a seat.

I did not have the courage to open the envelope, at that moment I just hated the colour white. I felt weight on my shoulder and saw Natasha but I just smiled at her then looked back at the report. "Can you open it for me?" I asked her. "I know you passed because I myself helped you study during the exams. Anyway that envelope is not for me to open, your parents are going to open that. They should be the first to see those distinctions." She said with a smile and I laughed.

"You mock my teaching skills combined with Percy's- dear Sir?" She said with crossed hands. "No, its just that I am unteachable." I answered feeling low. "If I thought that you were 'unteachable' I would have told you that, that word does not exist in the dictionary. The dum people would have actually go search for the word or would have agreed that it does not exist." She said. "Thanks." I said then smiled. "And do me a favour, you see that thing that you do when you get your report- that 'come an hour later at home because I failed' thing, do it again because I don't want you to mingle with a sweating girl because she had to rush herself." She said and my heart dropped. "See, even you believe I have failed." I said feeling hurt.

"No, trust me it's for your own good. You do have my number right. Well buy yourself a load of airtime because you are gonna need it to thank me. So you promise you are gonna come late home." She begged. "Yeah, sure, whatever." I answered. "And don't you dare open that report otherwise I will bash your face in. No man, then there is gonna be a girl fight. Just don't open that report." She said as her personality changed from scary, wondering, and warning after each sentence. Then she walked away- wait did she just say 'girl fight'. Did she just call me a girl. And why would I hit her back. Crazy girl.

"What was that about?" Chris asked. "Nothing I need to go." I said and I went to the city beach. It was empty as it was every year this time. I loved it like this because it gave me time to think about the lecture I am going to get from my parents, what are they going to ban me from, what are they gonna take away from me, etc.

I lied down in the sand and stared into space...

While I was wondering into space my phone began to ring. I saw it was an alarm that I had set so that I know I should go home. I had it set at 30 minutes before the time I normally reach home. I stood up and began walking. Today I was not going to catch a cab today- I was walking. Thinking about what if Natasha had really meant what she had said. Then what would happen?

I walked and walked but to my surprise I actually reached home quickly. I reached right on time but it felt like it only had been half the time. When I reached my house I walked pass the gate, opened the door. When I entered I saw... Julie. Great, just great now I am imagining her, but I decided to ignore her even though she smiled because I knew she was not real.

I dropped the report on my mom's lap and went upstairs to my room. I lied on my bed and waited for the angry voice of my mom or dad to call me. "Aaahhh." I heard my mom scream. If she was still pregnant she would have gone into labour. "Bruce Benjamin come down stairs right now!" She shouted from downstairs. I walked down stairs looking down because I could not really face their faces.
