"Hey Emmanuel wake up!! Can't you hear your alarm sounding it's already 7:10 it's been ringing since 7!!"
Oh shit, what the hell? I opened my eyes and was actually sincerely dumbfounded , and it showed clearly on my face.
"What's wrong Manuel? Don't tell me you stayed up all night again?"
"No Unc I just had nightmares all night, I wasn't able to sleep, my bad I didn't realize the alarm went off"
"Damn I can tell, shit must of been bad, look at your bed it's drenched! Don't worry about it just hurry up you gotta get ready"
"Ight yessir let me get in the shower real quick"
"Don't take to long you can't be getting tardies all the time, and wow did you grow an inch ? Maybe you're still in your growth spurt you might be as tall as me soon hahahaha, maybe you ain't gon suck as bad hooping hahahah"
"Man We gon see about that next time in the gym"
What the hell is going on there's no way all that last night wasn't real! I definitely feel a bit different my body feels lighter, but what happened to all the blood on my bed did it disappear? Maybe it was one of those really realistic dreams I've heard about on those "woke" pages, nah no way. Im sure all that pain was definitely real let me just go to the bathroom I need to think calmly about what's going on.
Well I was sure I was dead, but I'm definitely still moving and breathing also my heart beat feels normal. Hmm, actually I look way healthier than normal. My face looks a bit sharper or actually more attractive to be accurate and I grew a little bit, I was 5'8 before now I'm about 5'9, I was keeping track of my height on the wall looks like I'm an inch taller. Well I doubt I was supposed to grow any taller I'm already 16. Maybe something is truly different about my body. I look a bit stronger too and it's not normal for all this change to happen in a day it's definitely something to do with that creature yesterday. Maybe... Maybe I'm becoming like her. No! There's no way right, there's no way I have to eat humans right? That's disgusting, but maybe... maybe this is my chance to become someone strong! I don't want to be someone helpless if I'm truly changing I hope it's for the better I will become the best at whatever I'm doing.
Except school !! I hate school :( whatever I need to shower, hmm actually I just noticed that there's no particular odor coming from my body, actually I smell, I smell sweet almost like a fruit and this coldness on my skin is definitely not normal.
*about 15 minutes later I got ready, I just put on a grey tank top on the tighter side, and some basketball shorts along with high white socks which reach under my knees and some black air forces and I headed out*
"Aye dawg why'd you take so long to get ready! now we gotta run to school I should of just left you!" He said slightly angry
Me and my cousin Carlos always walk to school together he's my closest homie, anything that we go through we do it together, if someone has a problem with me they also have a problem with my cousin. He's only a year younger than me his appearance is not that far off from mine, he's my aunt Laura's kid but I think of him as my brother since my mom and his mom were sisters. He's an attractive kid with curly hair and caramel skin but he's actually taller than me at 6ft tall. Fairly built since were on the basketball team. His father died due to lung cancer a couple years ago, now he lives with his mom and his baby brother in apartments pretty close by to my uncles house where I live at.
"Man quit trippin, I was up all night, I couldn't sleep so I woke up late"
"You having those night mares again? About your mom? You don't have to feel guilty bro, you were too young how could you save your mom there's nothing you could of done man :(" My cousin said concerned
"Nah dawg, I'm good don't worry about it I'm good, already know I gotta keep my head up high, how else I'm supposed to keep you from getting jumped"
"Man shut up! I'm the one who's always helping you !"
He's definitely lying he's the one always getting into fights hahaha but I don't mind, I know that people always mess with him, also it's always fun getting out of situations together makes for great times when we get home and laugh about it for hours.
"Yeah alright alright whatever. We only got 15 mins until 8 we gotta walk faster or we not gon make it to class"
"Hurry up then foo let's run"
*arrives at school at 7:58 just in time*
"Alright then cuz let's split I'll see you at lunch"
"Ight Manny I'll see you later "
Alright now that I've separated from my cousin I'm just going to air things out and see how I do throughout the day hopefully there's no changes
