LUCY'S POV

'It's okay Lucy, just believe that it will all turn out fine.' I tried convincing myself that school was going to be alright. It wasn't working.

I was right in front of the school and it was beautiful! It's a castle. Like nothing I've ever seen before.

I walked in and there were no students? Odd.

I headed to the office and walked in. The front desk was to my right and I spoke, "Um, ano, I'm Lucy Heartfilia, the new transfer student, may I ask where the principal's office is?"

"Right in there!" She said with a smile, pointing behind her.

She was absolutely perfect with her long white hair, and curvy body. I think I am jealous. "I'm Mirajane, by the way, you can just call me Mira." she said.

"T-Thank you Mira!" I spoke nervously. I slowly made my way over to his office.

I knocked politly waiting in response. "Intrude," was what I heard. I twisted the door nob and found--

"Gii-chan?!"

"L-Lucy? Is that you?" he asked with a hopeful expression on his face. "Un," was all I said.

"How's your mother? I haven't seen my daughter in quite a long time. What's new?" he asked curiously. He. Doesn't. Know.

Life couldn't get any worse for me, now could it. "She, um, well, she's... d-dead."

Silence.

That was all you could here, or not hear, I guess. I never felt so horrible in my entire life! He didn't even know! Is that why he wasn't at the funeral?

"P-Pardon me but, um, could I take a minute?" I asked. He just nodded in response.

I walked out and climbed up the stairs. Not knowing where I was going, I ended up to the roof top.

The breeze felt nice.

Tears were falling down my face. I never liked the mention of mother, let alone talk about her.

I sat down by the edge, not saying a word, not even sobbing. Just the tears falling.

Heck of a way to start my day.
