Unbelievably in Love

chapter 1

Marilyn Jane or my imfamous nick name MJ is just another typical teenange girl in high school. What people don't know is that I came from the poorest family in my neighborhood. Being unpopular is not big deal to me. I always wanted my high school year to finish faster without any problem at all. I had thought it long and hard. Being the oldest in my family, I have three little brother and two little sister to be fed by my single but loving mom. So I have already made up my mind of skipping college after high school and start looking for a job to help my mom. My dad died when I was just 13 years old and eventhough my dad is loving and kind and trying hard to keep my family fully fed, it is always not enough as my dad used to work as a plumber.

It is a summer holiday. I always been prepare for a summer job at the Daily's. The most famous burger was found here. The burger is so famous that even the rich and famous people even like to eat here every now and then. I love watching people around me whithout them knowing. Yes, it is creepy but i just like to call myself an observer.

"Hey MJ!" Carol is walking beside me.

"Hey, carol...whatup. i cannot wait for summer job. Gosh..i really need some extra money..."

*thug* all i know i just bump to a full solid body and all my books are flying on air. I fell on my back and i saw Carol's mouth is gaping... hell i don't really like bumping to other people body at the moment. Today is the last day of my high school and all I need is my own peaceful time for myself tonight, well eventhough everyone is going to the prom tonight, which i don't because i thought it is just a waste of time and energy.

"Sorry, my fault." picking up my books, hurriedly trying to put it in my bag, i accidently touch the guy's hand whom is tring to help me.

"Oh no, its me...i did it again. I was so caught up with my dude story here that i wasnt watching my way" He was smiling while pointing at his friend next to him who seem still talking to the other friend of him. "Well, i gotta go but i'll see you at the prom tonight" He is winking his left eye to me. That's it. I'm in love.

Josh is untouchable by people like me. He is the so call God in school. Perfect in everything in his own way except he will hick up when he is really nervous. No wonder Carol is gaping on him. He is the guy that you would never think of bumping into. He is like a walking gold platter. He might have an insurance for hurting being bump into. That is how rich he is and handsome. So getting bump on him is like striking a jackpot. Ok that is too much. But still, on my last day of school and bumping to a very handsome and rich guy in school. Seriously, what else is gonna happen today. I am really curious.

"So it seems like you might change your mind for tonight promnite after all huh" Carol smile and winking her left eye imitating josh.

I just laugh and walk beside her until i reach my car. Then i ask her. "So, about the dress you are thinkin of lending me for promnite... are they still available?" What's wrong of being happy and enjoying life once in a while. I might never had a chance and high school is only gonna happen once, so better make the best experience of a lifetime, like attending a promnite. You see I never party before, my life is very dull, my bestfriend is having a blast life in highschool compare to me and she even have jack as a boyfiend. Jack is my other childhood and bestfriend too. What a pathetic life I have but like I always said, choices are very limited to me. I always wants what best for my family. I wanted to help mom eventhough mom didn't agree but sometimes I can see how tired she is coming home everynight, working two jobs at a time. Sometimes when i pity her, i would just snuggle beside her, or just hug her until she fall exhaustedly asleep. Life is so hard and I just want to be part of her by helping to ease some of her burden. Maybe things got lucky I might go to a night school while working. Who knows.
