Hey guys! I'm really sorry it took me forever to even think of to write for this chapter! I had writers block like crazy! I hope you enjoy :)
The last word I read out of Amy’s mind was “I wish I was never born.” As she ran out the school doors. I slipped the headphones I was wearing around my neck…why wear them if they’re not turned on? Seconds past before I ran after her. When I got out of the doors, I saw her sitting on a rock with her face in hands weeping. I sat next to her and flipped my hair out of my eyes. After two minutes, she finally realized I was next to her. So she stopped crying. I thought it would never end! She sat up and wiped her eyes with her sleeve. She looked at me…her face was red with embracement.
“That girl disserved it” I said at last.
She cracked a smile and said “You’re right. Hello my name is Amy, what’s your name?” she stuck out her hand to shake.
I grabbed her hand and said “My name’s Ben”.
“I like your name…and your hair.”
“Thanks, me too.”
She started laughing.
“The thing you did with your hands was cool.”
“Really? I always thought it was a curse.” She looked at a rock in front of her.
“Always? This happened before?” I said to her looking in her green eyes.
“Yeah…it started a couple years ago.”
“What happened?”
“I was bullied through middle school…I would go home angry. To let out my anger, punched my pillow…after a long painful day at school, I went in my room to punch my pillow. I reached out to grab it and it exploded. Feathers went everywhere!” she used her hands a lot while telling me the story.
“Wow” that’s all I could really say to that. “Do you want to grab some pizza tonight?”
“Sure!” she smiled.
I’m glad I made her happy…
