I woke up and said Where am I?
The nurse looked at me and said oh you're awake!
I thought you were in a Coma.
She chuckled Like it was funny.
Can I go back to class? She looked at me, and said Are you sure?
Yes I'm feeling fine.
Well, Your last class is Music, So just try not to injure yourself again.
I walked to Music class, Everyone looked at me when I opened the door.
'SHE'S NOT DEAD!' Screamed a boy
What a rude way to greet her said Ling.
Well, Hello Maya! I was hoping you'd show up today said, Mrs.Heather.
If you're feeling well, Today's the day to sing our solo's.
You can listen if you'd l-
I want to sing I said.
Hm?
I want to sing. I repeated myself
Oh,Alright. She said with a nervous smile.
She handed me a Microphone to let me stand up on her little stage.
I took a deep breath in, Knowing I looked like a complete mess, With a big Bruise on my forehead.
'The past hurt's more than the future'
The future you can't fix, The past you can
I know your secret, You know mine
Why do you hate me? Why did you lie?
Tell me, dear, tell me I'm listening
What happened, At the southside.
Take me back when you lied
Take me back when you were here.
Take me back, Every tear.
I looked at Kalayah the whole time, She tried to break eye contact but I knew, And so did she.
Beautiful Maya! Bravo! Excellente!
A round of Applause everyone!
Everyone clapped. Ling the Loudest
Alright, who's next?
I was too busy thinking, my mind racing.
Some student sang
'When we all cry where do we go?'
'When we all weep where do we go?'
I looked at Kalayah, Stared at her.
Once class ended, I pulled her to the bathroom.
Slammed the door, Then turned and looked at her.
I said four word's, I never thought I'd say.
You're my step sister.
