The Braid.

Ch.1

Well, Hi, I'm Emma, the most unpopular girl at school, People laugh at me everyday. I'll tell you more about myself; I'm 15 years old,

I was born in Canada but mum and dad got divorced and I decided to live with mum in California, I loved her more than dad;

dad's always at work, he never talks to me or even care about his daughter!

He only works and pay for my school fees.

I'm not blonde, I'm not beautiful. I have brown straight hair, I always braid it and I've brown eyes.

My family isn't poor and isn't even rich they're in the middle society class.

I've 2 bad girls with me in the class, Mia and Bethany, we call her Beth.

They're best friends. I can't admit it, they're beautiful, very beautiful!

So that's why lots of guys want to date them.

But the worst thing is that they bully everyone who was kind and have weak personality in order to be more popular and funny. But for sure not all the people loved them.

I've always wanted to be loved by others. I only have one bestfriend, she's called Tara. She isn't not really blonde, I mean her hair wasn't gold or yellow, it was dirty gold, black with gold hair, but I really like that color!

8:00AM

My mum was trying to wake me up, but she couldn't, because yesterday I slept late, very late. I was studying really hard.

So I didn't go to school.

9:00AM

I recived a text message from Tara

"HEY DUDE, WHY YOU DIDN'T COME?"

I didn't answer, because I wasn't awake.

At 9:30AM I recived another text message

"UGH, OKAY, JUST TEXT ME WHEN YOU WAKE UP, BYE."

I woke up at 11:30AM, first thing I did was grabbing my phone, I saw Tara's message ans I answered her.

"I ONLY SLEPT 1 HOUR AND I COULDN'T WAKE UP"

I recived Tara's answer after a second from sending my message.

"OMGG!!!"

I was worried, what is she going to say?

"SAM IS GOING TO DATE BETH" She said.

I was shocked and worried, I don't want him to date her because he's my crush and I like him. He's the most charming boy at our class, AT THE WHOLE SCHOOL! And I've always wished that he could only talk to me.

"DFJJJIFKQPXNA!! OMG! ARE YOU KIDDING ME???!?!?"
I said.

"NOOO I AMM NOOOT"

She said.

"WHAT A BAAAAD NEWS, BUT ARE YOU SURE?" I asked.

"Yes, I'm, and he will date he tomorrow I guess" She said.

"But why not today?" I asked.

"Ughhh! I don't know, I didn't ask him-_-" She said.

"I wish he don't:'''(" I said.

"Haha, I'm feeling sorry for you:P But I've told you before that boys like beauties" She said.

"I wish I could be beautiful like them" I said.

"ME TOO, I HAVE TO GO, BYE!" She said.

"Bye x" I said.

I felt like "I'm depressed", because nobody knows how much I really like him, not because he's beautiful, I don't actually know why, I just like him okay?

And I started to hear my favourite song;

Only Time by -ENYA.

I strongly recommend everybody to hear it.

"Who can say where the road goes, where the day flows ONLY TIME.
And who can say if your love grows as your heart choose ONLY TIME."

There's something about this song that really makes me cry whenever I hear it.

The lyrics isn't like the other songs, it has a meaning, I don't like the POP , electronic, rap, etc. They don't have a meaning!

Okay, an example, this song;

"This one is for the boys with the booming system, Top down AC with the cooler system, when he come up in the club he is blazing up he got stacks om deck like he's saving up"

Just tell me what's the meaning of the lyrics?

Every sentence doesn't have a common relation with the previous one,

and the sentence itself doesn't have a meaning! It's just my opinion, I don't like this kind of songs.

And I guess it's weird because teenagers love pop, rap and electronic songs, but I don't know, I just like "Only time by enya".

I'm in deep love with music.

* * *

I just repeated this song several times until the battery died.

I wipped the tears with my hand and walked towards the window,

I looked into the sky.

"The sky's so beautiful and so did he" I said.

Sam's very beautiful, everything in him is just so perfect, his eyes, his lipss, ughhhh.

After 10 minutes, I heard mum calling me

"EMMA, did you wake up?"

She asked.

"Yes"

I answered.

I felt sleepy so I said...

"Mum, can you please wake me up at 4:00PM? I'm going to take a nap".

"Okay hunny" She said.

"Thanks" I said.

And I went to bed.
