Why is it so dark? Oh! my eyes are shut. Open up you dirty little suckers; we have a math paper to study for.Yaaaaaawnnn… OMG I drooled over my book. It’s so wet and disgusting. I just defined sex didn’t I? But my book didn’t have sex with my mouth. At least I hope not. Forget that all, by the way what is the time? HOLYSHIT! It is 11 pm! I am dead. I have just done first exercise of the first chapter and three whole chapters are coming. What am I going to do with my life? My mom was right. I should leave school and become a maid. But if only I could leave school and runaway. My life pretty much sucks, and it sucks because it is an ordinary normal person life. I never wanted to be normal. It’s this feeling in my gut that I am not meant to lead a life so normal. (I bet everyone one feels the same) I mean I wake up, go to school, come back home, do my homework (rarely), eat dinner, watch movies till midnight, sleep and then the same old routine. I mean how sad can someone’s life be. Neither do I have a boyfriend nor am I the topper of my class. I am the one stuck in the middle of the social pyramid and trust me, middle sucks badly. I know I use like a lot of suck but that is not my only bad habit. My favorite word to express my feeling about a situation is ‘shit’. For example right now I am stuck in a big pile of shit and I am procrastinating. How amazing am I, right? let’s start again.
Exercise two chapter one question one: there are two chords parallel to each other measuring 6cm and 8cm respectively. The radius is 10 cm. What is the distance between these two chords?
Wow! I have to think a lot for this question. Just kidding its super easy so I would leave it pass on to the tough ones. Hm! They all are super easy. At this rate I will finish this chapter in 5 minutes!
(After 5 minutes) chapter done! And its 11:30. I should sleep as they say a goodnight sleep results in a fresh and active brain which is perfect for tomorrow. I can wake early morning and finish the rest as it only took I mean five minutes . Off to bed. I have never realized how soft this bed is I mean amazzzzz……..
(5:00 am)Trrrrrrrr!!!!!! Hey ! Shut up whoever that is. I just slept . Where the hell is the snooze button on this thing ? There it is . Ahhhhh , some peace and off to sleezzzzzzzz
(6:00 am) Trrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Trrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Trrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I shouted, ‘OH! Do you hate me ? I just slept right now and you are buzzing. What did I do to you?’My right eye half opened and read the time.'6:00 am!’, again I shout. Shit! I was going to be late for school and I hadn’t finished my two chapters. I am up for a big mess. Please dear God make sure that the whole paper comes from the first chapter.
Chapter Two
I can’t stop pacing! Its five minutes before the invigilator comes. I have to mug up everything. These five minutes will make it or break it(metaphorically). My life depends on these five minutes. I can do! I CAN DO IT !
‘Hey, did you do the IMPACT Mathematic?’ A snobbish voice said those horrible words that made me panic more. It was Marcus Worthington . That rich smart brat ! I mean isn’t it unfair for someone to be rich, smart and handsome. That is just socially unfair. But can I change the nature’s ways ? Apparently not.
‘You don’t want flies in your mouth, do you’, again said the snobbish rats ass and I realized my mouth was opened and shut them immediately.
‘I am too cool for extra books’, I replied. how could I possibly say that? I have lost my mind! Actually not only my mind but also my wits cause by saying those words I stooped real low.
‘Definitely! Just like you are too cool to pass, right?’ he said with a grin on his face. I mean he defines mean.
Trrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!! And there goes the bell.
‘Seems like your doom is here Kells. I will be right next to you when you will fall in the dark pit of maths and the best part is I will be looking down at your sorry face as you will never be able to climb back’
At that moment I was real angry and I even growled at him. But I couldn’t do anything as the invigilator was here and guess who it was, Mrs. Crumpplebottom, the scariest teacher in school. Marc was right, I am falling in that pit and I see no rope or ladder. I could see my doom and it was on my desk. I gulped in all the saliva that was in my mouth, picked up my pen and started writing I don’t know what. After an hour of writing the bell rang. The paper was taken. And the first thing Marcus did after giving his paper was look at me with that nasty grin of his. I wish to run over my table and smack him on that moment but I couldn’t, teacher in the class. Don’t want to be suspended after giving a bad paper .
Someone sat next to me weeping real loud. I looked to my right and saw my best friend, Amy, was crying.
‘I knew all the questions but I couldn’t finish the paper ‘Amy said in her sweet yet sad voice. I felt sad for her. She always worked hard but could never score well.as for me , never worked hard and never scored well.
‘It is okay Amy, next time you will be faster’
‘It is not okay Kells! Every time it happens. You know, that is it I am done. The harder I work the worse my paper goes. I just should give up to score full.’
‘Don’t say that Amy!’
‘ Kells you don’t have the right to say anything to me. You don’t study and yet you score above seventy percent and you say that you don’t care about your marks. You are a liar!’
‘Hey! Just because of some stupid math paper you are picking up a fight with me and by the way that wasn’t nice of you to say that. I didn’t expect that from you Amy.’
‘And now you expect things from me! ‘
‘Can you even listen to yourself Amy! You yourself are confused on what to argue on . You just want to pick up a fight with me as you know I can’t be angry with you for long whereas Roland can!’
Wondering who Roland is? Roland is the jock of our class. Great in sports and all the girls love him but he loves Amy, only Amy. And that was the problem. Amy just wants to be friends and he always goes extreme. For example last evening he was singing ‘my heart will go on ‘by Celion Dion in her backyard . Her mom was furious after this and forbid her from talking to him, even on phone. Wondering how I know that. She messaged me all that and I read it on the way to school in the bus whereas I should have been studying. But bestie before exams. Roland has anger issues and is the last person you want piss off. And how did Amy piss Roland off, by not picking his phone calls. He is ignoring her.
‘I just need sometime alone’ Amy whined. I felt sad for her as a major douchebag was in love with her.
I left her and the class room. I went to my locker opened it and saw a card with a big congrats written on it with sparkles. I opened it and read:
Exam finally over! We survived! and now let’s hope we will survive the results also. Party after school at my place. Just you, Nadia and me . Waiting to meet you
-Sam
I smiled inside. Sam is my childhood friend. We were neighbors but then I shifted and his classes changed .We got cut off for some time but got the few same classes this year which got us close again.
As for Nadia, she is his best friend . They both got real close after Sam’s break up with Iris, the Miss popular who everyone wants to date. I personally think that she is a slut. Nadia is sweet but confused, she thinks it is wrong to discriminate on the basis of social status and yet she hangs with the popular kids. Now isn’t she a confused kid!
I closed my locker while taking out the card and suddenly
‘Surprise! ‘Sam exclaimed.
‘Hey, I love the card. Nice touch with the sparkles !’
‘Picked that habit from you only ‘
‘Awe………’
I hugged him and so did he.
‘So are coming to my party of three. It’s only drinking and burning of question papers’
‘Actually I don’t drink’
‘Which I know’
‘ And I have to be with Amy. Best friend duty says you have to stay with bestie when she is grounded even though you have an amazing choice of burning question papers with friends’
‘Why did she get grounded?’
‘Roland’
‘Oh’, Sam said with a sad face.
Trrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!
‘See you in psychology’ with a lighting smile he said those words and went away.
Chapter Three
My first period was math’s in which I dozed off. Second period was English in which I also dozed off. Then there was psychology in which Sam and I kept talking . Then I had P.E. with Amy in which Amy sat aside on the benches and everybody was goofing around. Next was chemistry in which I accidentally spilt acid on the table. I had biology and then physics which was certainly boring and finally break time.It was the last day before the summer started and also the end the session. I was going to be in junior high. How bad does that sound? I mean I have to be grown up. And since it was last day of being a sophomore (aka baby birds) the recess was chaotic. Everybody was clicking photos with each other; I couldn’t find half of my friends. I actually I couldn’t find any of my friends. All the time I was walking past people who were my acquaintance and they were all like come on Kelly last day pic with us and I was like yeah, definitely whatever your name was. Well to be true I am good with names and I was just making that up. At last when the recess ends I find Tris - CNN-IBN of school, also totally annoying but a kind-hearted soul and also my friend.
‘Where were you Kelly Angela?’ she asked in her annoying tone
‘I was looking for you, Tris Jennings’, yeah right I was. Technically I was looking for Casey. Now Casey is my go to girl, my close friend. ‘She is my bra and I am her underwear’ these are the golden words that we say to define our friendship. We became close in ninth when different classes were assigned to us and we had the ‘grown up’ schedule.
‘Yeah you better because I am the best. By the way how was your math’s test?’
‘Oh! Nice question their Tris but I can only answer when I get the results’
We started walking towards the rest of the gang who had apparently been together since the break and I was the lost case. The problem was that I wanted to study science and all of them had no interest in science. So I was the only one with the most hideous subjects and with different classes causing me being away from my friends. We finally reached their. Sam, Amy, Nadia and Casey were sitting around a round table and were laughing their ass about something I was about to know.
‘Guess who got their leg stuck in the school gutter today?’ Sam asked.
‘Who?’
‘At least try to guess’ Nadia prompted
‘Casey’
‘Hey! Do I smell that bad’ Casey intervened.
‘I give up’
‘It was Shawn’ Sam said laughing real hard.
‘It was the perfect birthday gift for that arrogant, self-righteous bastard’ said Amy.
Shawn was a very straight forward person because of which he didn’t have many friends, but whoever his friends were made him popular. He studied well and partied hard which was unfair as I did none of them. Shawn and Sam were best friends once but because of Iris they became sworn enemies.
‘Forget that guys. What are our plans for today? I mean it is our last day as sophomore and the summers are going to start. Before we all split of due to family vacation we have to do something together.’
Tris: I have a family dinner
Casey: I have plans with my mom
Well two down three to go.
Amy: I am not in a mood
Sam and Nadia: well you know our plan.
Trrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!!!!!
I gave them a sad look and left. I guess I was going to have sucky last day after all. So much for fun.
Chapter Four
The rest of the day went real slow. I gazed out of the windows for most of the classes. The bell rang and finally...... School was over. I was waiting outside for my mom when some car swinged by and stopped. It was a black Audi SUV. I wondered who it might be. The window rolled down and a handsome man in a black suit with ray bans turned his head towards me. He kept his head like this and moved it for bottom to top as if he was checking me out.
'Get in’, he commanded in a stern voice.
I looked around me to check if he was talking to me or not.
'Are you asking me?’ I asked.
'Yes, get in' he again commanded.
'Didn't any teach you to be polite with ladies?'
'I said get in', and again the same monotonous voice.
'Are you asking me or commanding me?’ I felt like getting on his nerves. I mean how dare he command me to get in that car. I didn't know him and I am to get in a car with him.
'Hey'
I mean the 1o1 of kidnapping someone is to lure them to come along. That is the basics!
'Hey!'
And he need to learn his basics if he is trying to kidnap me and isn't he too rich to kidnap me. I mean he is sitting in an Audi. That defines rich!
'Hey!!! Are u getting in the car or do I have to sedate you.'
'Excuse me! First of all if you are a kidnapper then I think you must have failed in your kidnapping test. Second of all you are a complete stranger who is asking me to get in his very shady car and I am not allowed to talk to strangers!' I finished my argument off with a very dumb line and started walking towards the school whereas everyone was going in an opposite direction . I heard the sound of a window roll up and a door bang close and I realize he was out and coming towards me. I started pacing towards the big crowd muffled near the school door aiming to get lost in the crowd but now I could hear someone was running towards me and that someone grabbed my shoulder and turned me around giving my body a big jerk.
‘I will scream at the top of my voice if you will not stop' I said so fast that I didn't even see the persons face and when I saw I froze. It was Johnathan Mayer. He was a very hot guy who I had been crushing on since third grade.
'Are you alright Kelly?’
'You remember my name' I was starting to act like a creep which I was when it came to him. I would be stalking him all the time. Any photos he uploads in any social website, I would be the first to see.
‘Of course I remember your name! We were very good friends back in third grade.' I smiled back in glee. I was happy he remembered me.
'I remember that. You have stuck your ass out to save mine a lot of times in third grade'.
he laughed, I giggled.
'Hey, I was thinking if you could come to this party with me tonight. After all in two years we will be in different places from now so why not mend the old ties.’ he said in his sweet voice. And when all the magic was happening my phone rang.
‘Hold that thought', I said. I picked the phone and it was mom waiting for me.
‘I have to go right now Jo but I will try to make it' Jo was what I used to call him when we were kids.
‘I miss hearing that name! How about this, you give me your number and I will message you the details of the party?'
‘Definitely!' I gave him my number and said goodbye. When he left I realized that my handsome stalker was gone and his car was also nowhere to be seen. I ignored that though and went back home with my mom.
