Journey of life

Start the journey

Everyone avoids me, they exclude me, they throw me out.

I woke up from the same nightmare that always repeated every day.

My name is Cassandra El Perrie. I'm 16 years old student. I live in Sanco Morina. The year now is 3056. If you think that the earth probably looked the same as your timeline right now, you are very wrong. Our earth has changed for the better. So many progressive breakthrough on our technology that have been done in order to reach and satisfy human curiosity. Especially in proving the idea of another existence besides human, whichbis the mystery of alien.

Suddenly, i heard some clattering sound from downstairs." Well that's a way to ruin my introduction," I mumbled sarcastically and glanced at the clock on the right side of my bed, "6 am" I muttered.

I walked slowly towards the bottom floor, and saw my grandma preparing breakfast. Her blue gown reflects the bright warm light of my kitchen. The light kind of hurt my eyes, so I decided to rub them hard.

"O hi dear, did I wake you up?" My grandmother, Sasha, walked up to me and hand me a piece of warm bread. The room smelled warm and nice, I kind of feel a bit sleepy.

"Hi Grandma. don't worry, you didn't. I was already up when you made the clattering noise " I smiled and took the bread into the dining room.

I put the bread on the plate in the middel of the table and walk towards the refrigerator to grab some milk, but suddenly and without warning,My body became stiff. So I tripped and fell down. I can't move any inch of my body. Panic started to crept inside of me. Then, I began to breathe fast. My grandmother heard the sound of my body fell hard to the floor and ran towards me with rush. She gives me some pills, and after taking it,

I fell asleep.

You know, I'm not an ordinary girl. I was a guinea pig of my parents. I live as an alien.  My hair and eye color always changed every second, and i always felt an extreme amount of pain whenever the genes induced inside of my body becomes unstable.

But i never experienced anything like this, falling limp and gasping for air, it's like you're tried running away from something scary.

But yes ... I tried to run away from reality, I've been hurt. But now, I lived with my grandmother and my aunt. They took care of me properly, unlike my supposed to be parents.

Again, I woke up from my usual nightmare. I began to look around, and guess what? my aunt was already up and eating her breakfast while working on something ,"guess I've been knocked out for quite a while huh...?" I thought as I walked limply towards the dining table and began to take a piece of bread, but then I realized. My aunt, Leslie. Was watching me.

"Whaaat ??" I asked. She smiled and whispered "James is crazy" I just chuckled , my grandma came to the table and sat down next to me "Leslie! it's not one of James or his wife fault that Cassie fainted ". Grandma said while grabbing a piece of bread from her plate. After that, she began to eat.

"Hey Cass!!" someone called me. I turned around and saw my best friend behund me, the only one who never isolated me, well kinda ( beside my family ) "Hi higgs..." I smiled and walked beside her.

As we began to walk along, I started to feel and noticed people staring at me, but I just shrugged it off like usual. "Nice hair!" says a man while pulling my hair, hard." Hey stop you jerk!" I shrieked and pulled my hair, stopping him. And as a result, he yanked then dropped my hair. Leaving me in pain. "Ooh, that must've hurt" said my best friend named Higgins as she help me to straightening my tangled hair, "thank you" I smiled to her.

The bell rang, we ran to the classroom and started to study. You know, school stuff.

"Don't you ever get bored or tired of your situation??" Higgins pulled my hair a little as we walked home. "oh ... of course I'm bored, but it also gave me a unique feelings, like i was different from the others " I answered with a note of sarcasm. Higgins just smiled ( knowing my attitude ) and continued walking. The road was quite vacant, so we just kept on talking, well mostly we just joked around.

After a while, the road came to a split. You know, I never liked this part of the road. Cuz' you know-

"Bye Cass!!" Higgins said as she turns around. I saw her running away quickly while waving slightly at me, my house and Higgins are in a different block so we had to split up. And so, I continued walking along the road. After walking for few more minutes, I arrived.

"I'm home!" i yelled from the front door , but all I heard was noises . It was came from the tv room . I started to walk towards the sound and saw my parents, arguing with my aunt, "Hi..." I smiled and glanced at them all, "Aaaaww.... my unique little alien is all grown up!" My mother hugged me tightly, and so did my father.

waiiiiiiit.....since WHEN did they started to care about me ?

I knew they were up to something. remembering the past. Warning feeling started to form inside of me.

"WHAT are you guys doing here?!!" I took their arms off from me, and stare at them, giving them the hate and disbelieve look."look, You know dear ... We are taking a new research and...." my father stretched out his hand and so did my mother. "we found another dimension called ... the Ultranom world !" they laughed together "and we need you for this research" my father added quickly and patted me on the shoulder.

"WHAT ?!!" aunt Leslie grabbed my hand and pulled me away. She was shocked by the statement. Realizing the situation, she dragged me to my room."They're crazy. Wait here!" Aunt Leslie told me to wait. As i sit on my oh-so wonderful bed, she then walked out and closed the door really hard. I heard Aunt Leslie and my parents began to yell at each other. This is no Good i knew it.

I stood up, and took off my school bag. After staring to space for a while, I lay my body on the cold mattress. "Yes, they both carzy" I whispered, answering my aunt's statement. "That's why I cried" tears began to streaming down from my eyes, flowing down to my cheeks. This happens every once in a while. I wanted it to stop, so I wiped it away.

I closed my eyes and thought, "would it be better to give myself up or just declined and risk my parents happiness?!".

After all, they did treat me like a guinea pig. But they're still my parents.

I pulled the blanket and hugged it ."what do i beed to do..." I began to sob again. How couldn't I?. My childhood wasn't like any other. It was horrible. Growing up is hard too, consider I always been treated like an alien, a monster. I started to sink deep into my thoughts, letting them wash over me.

I've came to a decision."they are my parents, whether I want to admit it or not, I still love them".

I opened my eyes and started to look around. I walked to the window and opened it wide, the wind greeted me softly, the scent of the season covered me. "living here in this earth is so wonderful" I smiled and sighed "but what's the harm for me to see the outside world? It might be more beautiful".

I wiped away the tears from my wet cheeks and ran down to the first floor. I stared at them, aunt Leslie and my parents are still arguing ."hey!" I cut off the debate between them, snapping them back to reality. Silence filled the room. I took a deep breath, as they all looked at me in a puzzled face.

"I'm willing to go" I said in a serious tone. Both of my parents eyes lit up in joy and excitement, they smiled at the state. They ran to my direction and hugged me tightly.

"Better hope this works really well!" I thought sarcastically .

There's no turning back.
