ACT ONE, CHAPTER FOUR Back to the 90's
─── ･ ｡ﾟ☆: *.☽ .* :☆ﾟ. ───
TO LEARN THAT YOU WERE FILLED TO THE BRIM with built up magic was one thing. But to continue going to school and pretending that everything was okay was very different. Although that drink was disgusting and nearly made her throw up, Andi had to admit that it did make things easier when she walked into school the next day. She wasn't hearing any voices in her head except for the loud kids in the hallway. Even when she was in phys ed class in a room full of people, the muffled voices managed to stay quiet. All she could hear were people talking amongst themselves as they waited for their turn to climb the rock wall that was set up in the gymnasium.
Andi's coloured hair was pulled into a loose ponytail to keep it out of her face and she was wearing a pair of black leggings and a watermelon pink tank top. She scanned the wall as she adjusted the harness and started climbing. Halfway up the wall, the boy next to her was picking up speed while she was reaching for the next rock. The boy was already on his way down by the time she was able to pull herself up. She placed her left foot on another rock but she slipped and lost her footing on both feet. Both of her legs were hanging as she held onto two of the rocks above her. She could hear some of the other students giggling as she struggled to get herself together and keep going. She eventually reached the top and carefully made her way back down to the floor so the other kids could have their turn.
A pale boy with a buzz cut and a girl with messy blonde hair were called to the rock wall and Andi stood off to the sidelines with her arms resting at her sides. She wasn't really paying much attention until she heard ragged breathing and saw the blonde panicking before she could even get halfway up the wall.
"Erica! Are you dizzy? Is it vertigo?" the coach asked while everyone watched the girl as she was about to have an anxiety attack on the rock wall.
"Vertigo is a dysfunction of the vestibular system of the inner ear. She's just freaking out," Lydia said with her arms crossed and Andi rolled her eyes at the strawberry blonde's condescending attitude.
"Erica!" the coach called.
"I'm fine," she said while some of the other students laughed at her predicament.
"Coach, maybe it's not safe. You know she's epileptic," Allison said.
"Why does nobody tell me this stuff? Erica, you're fine. Just kick off the wall. There's a mat to catch you," the coach stammered.
Erica let go of the rocks and she lowered herself to the mat. Most of the other kids were laughing as she walked away and Andi scoffed with her arms crossed.
"Assholes," she muttered under her breath, not caring if the other kids heard her or not.
