I went inside of my room, and think again. I crouch my pillow to prevent from crying, but I can't stop myself. I sob.

"Something's wrong Kezia?" The person outside my door said. It sounds like it's Atticus. "May I come in?" He added.

"Come in," I commanded, then he comes in. I blink my eyes so that my tears will go away and see Atticus more clearly. I sat down at my bed, then he sat beside me.

"What's up?" I asked him, pretending that I didn't cried.

"Felix wants us to go to his house tomorrow," he looks me in the eye, "are you crying?" He asked.

"I'm not. My eyes are just hurt. Why?" Wow, I'm such a big liar.

"It really looks like it. Well then, sleep now. We have another day of learning tomorrow," he said. ANOTHER DAY OF LEARNING. How am I suppose to learn if headphones are not working for me? My eyes shift to my bed. I just want to sleep and forget all of this things.
"You sure you're okay?" He asked me again.
"I'm fine. Don't worry about me. Goodnight," I said, with a mad look. I really want to end this conversation. It makes me sick.

I wake up with a blanket on my face, barely to breath. I take off the blanket, then I get up to eat breakfast. It's 5:30 in the morning. I think they are not awake yet.

I went straight to the kitchen and toast a bread, yawning. I want to stay on my bed, but the vision about last night kept me awake. I should stop thinking about it.

I grab the mayonnaise, and put my toasted bread into the plate and start spreading the mayonnaise into it. While I'm eating, I wish my dad is gonna wake up. I want to ask him about this Uncontrollable people again. It makes me freak out, and makes me so interested about it.
A minute later, Hugo sit beside me at the kitchen. He look's sleepy, his eyes is still closed.

"Good morning," he said, tapping my back. I just nod.

"You should wait for mom, dad and Atticus before eating," he said while looking in me. I ignore him and I just continue eating my toasted bread.

"I have a question to you," he added. "Can you read people's mind? I just forgot to ask you about that and now, it just came through my mind. It's really weird," he said, with a questioning eyes. He has dark blue eyes, almost purple. It's really hard to take your eyes away when he's looking at you in a focus way. I shiver hard. If I'm not going to lie, he will know about me, which is not good. But if I lie, he won't know that I'm Uncontrollable. I don't want to lie at him, he's my brother. My second oldest brother. He protects me for everything, and I'm just going to lie at him?

"If you don't remember when it happened, it is yesterday. It's before Jackson approach us," he explained. I shake my head really fast and swallowed the food inside my mouth fast to answer his question.
"No. I'm just, I'm just weird. Yes, I'm uhh, pretty weird sometimes," I said, almost a choke. I grab my water near me and drink.

"Okay," he murmurs. Then, I suddenly hear a footstep. Mom, dad, and Atticus is awake. Mom hugs me, then dad, then Atticus.

"How are you little girl!" Atticus said, almost a shout, but not quite. He said little girl.

LITTLE.

I looked at him with an angry face. I don't appreciate him calling me a LITTLE girl.

"Little, is not a good term for me," I said then look away.

"Sorry," he said, then hugs me. I hug him back. He's body's temperature was hot, he's soft as pillow. Then we all eat.

We're at school now. I stand between Hugo and Atticus. They are talking with somebody, then I saw Ethan, walking towards me. He smiled at me and said "Hi."
He's wearing the same uniform, and he wear glasses.
"What's up with that glasses?" I asked.
"I've decided not to wear my contact lenses. How's everything going?" He asked.
"It's going great. How's yours?"
"Great," there's a silence.
"Kezia, Atticus, I'm going to go to class. Bye!" Hugo said then walked away.
"Let's go Kezia," Atticus said then he saw Ethan. "Hey Ethan. How are you?" He added.
"I'm good. And you?" Ethan said, wheezing.
"Good."

We're already here at our class and Atticus departed. I saw the literature teacher again. I wish we're not going to the computers again, or else I'm not going to learn something.
"Today, I'm going to discuss about what happened at the biggest war in the world. We're going to talk about the girl who wrote on her diary about her experience in World War 2. The book that you're going to read is already on your desk," she said. I saw the desk get shimmer, and the letters came out. Our desks are made out of electronic glass.
"Can somebody take a guess for me what happened to her without looking the desk," the desk goes darker and came into its original design.
I remember my dad teaching me this stuff, and I remember Anne Frank. I raise my hand up high and the teacher nods at me. I stand up, nervously looking at her then start to talk.
"Well, I think, Otto Frank that is Anne Frank's dad gave the diary to her so that she's not going to get bored. Anne Frank wrote down what happened during World War 2, and how they hid from the German Nazi. But then in the end, they got caught and Anne Frank died because of starvation disease. Otto Frank is the only one who survived in the family. He kept the Diary of Anne Frank to remember his daughter," I explained.
"Have you learn this before?" My teacher asked. "If so, can you tell me who's in the house hiding with Anne Frank?"
"The ven Pels family. Actually, it's not a house. It's an annex own by Anne Frank's dad," I said. My classmates look impressed, few looks puzzled.
"Splendid," she said then I sat down with a smile. Ethan looked at me, then whispered "that's awesome," then he smiled at me.
"Thank you," I smiled back.
