         "I am fine Tess, come here baby girl" in a sweet tone said aunt Kelly.
         
           Tears rolling down my eyes went near aunt. It looks like a major accident, she got bandaged over her head and her right leg. Uncle Jason was there sitting side of her, he is very sad it can be noticed by his face.

          "How did it happen Aunt?"

           "Don't know sweet heart it happened in seconds" aunt Kelly replied in a weaker voice.

            "How are you? Tess" questioned uncle Jason.

             "I am good and How are you uncle"

             "I am fine" he replied.

              I said them about my new school, my friends Austin and Evita. They listened to me very patiently. They gave some advices. We talked for about a hour. It's 5 minutes to 7. It was really painfull to see aunt in that condition but by talking to her it made me happy.

             "It's going to be seven, we better be leaving" said my mom.

              "Yeah, you should be leaving" added uncle Jason.

              "Hope you get well soon aunt. I will be praying to God"

              "Come here" and aunt gave me a sweet kiss on my cheek.

               "Bye aunt, Bye uncle"

                "Bye Tess"

                "I will be visiting tomorrow" said my mom.

                "I will also come"

                 "I am sorry Tess but you can't and no asking why"

                 "Okay"

                We reached home by taxi. I still have my gloves on.

                  "Mom now can I take my gloves off  my hand"

                 "Yes you can,as soon as you do, put the gloves in the laundry"

                "Okay" I did as my mom ordered.

               I went into my room and did my home work. At 9p.m we ate our dinner and slept.

               Bruk Bruk Bruk

              "Good morning mom"

              "Good morning Tess, pack your bag and here is the lunch. I suppose you to leave the home immediately now and no asking why"

                "Um, okay"

               Its still 7:15a.m I stood outside the door with the puzzled air.

              "Okay mom, bye"

              "Now, go running to the school, no stopping in between." she shouted and pushed me out.

               I did as I was told. It was First time I went running to the school. sweat was dripping down my face. I felt so uncomfortable and totally exhausted. I was the first one to reach the school,  the watchman didnot arrived yet.

               I switched on the fan and sat in my place relaxing but my mind was tossing on my mom and home. At 8:00a.m students started coming into the class.

              "Hey Tess! Good morning why are you seemed to be so exhausted?"

               "Do you know Evita how it feels running to the school at 7:20a.m don't know why you were  running and coming, looking so stupid to do that and have no idea what you were doing and couldn't understand what is happening around you"

              "Um......No"

              "Great!"

               "What happened Tess?, How is your aunt"

              "Believe me, I have no idea what happened. My aunt is not well it was a major accident"

            "Oh sorry for that hope she get well soon. You have no idea. WEIRD"

             "I know right, seriously my mom is acting very wierd you know from yesterday don't know why"

              "We will figure it out"

              "Hello ladies! Good morning" said Austin

             "Hi, whatever" at a time replied both of us.

              "I said them about yesterday how my mom acted wierd and what happened today morning"
