I stared at my reflection in the bathroom mirror, while watching the tears uncontrollably fall down. Tears are the way the body speaks when words can't describe the pain. Today is my 18th birthday. You are probably wondering why the heck would I be sad, I should be happy. Well yeah an ordinary girl living an ordinary life would be so happy right now in her designed dress, blowing the candles from her extra decorated cake while everyone sing her a happy birthday song. Yeah unfortunately that won't happen to me. I may be an ordinary girl however I don't live in an ordinary world.
I live in a world were that is separated by zodiac sign, each sign has it's own country. That's not the worst part. You are only allowed to fall in love with people from your sign or whoever your zodiac is compatible with. Anyone else is forbidden. In my world you should act like your zodiac or they would claim that your sign is not really your sign and you are breaking into another country.
The government claimed that the violence and family issues is due to the uncompatibel sign being together. That's why they thought separating the world would bring peace to it. the government so called manners agreed to let us stay in our parents zodiac country until we turn 18, since we will be able to take care of ourselves. In addition Today I will have to move from Alvara the pisces country to The Catopric the Leo country.
back to the story>>
I whipped the tears from my cheeks and drew a charming so fake smile on my face when my mother called me ... by my full name.
" how is my birthday girl" My mother approach me with her face let with eager excitement and happiness. I always knew that she considers me an annoying little brat and she can't wait for me to leave,but she could at least pretend to be sad about it.
her smile faded once she saw the gloomy expression on my face. She obviously noticed my puffy eyes but she knew better than to comment on it.
"So what are your plans for today" Julia asked with a soft smile on her face.
"I'm planning to start my day with eating my breakfast. No better way to start your big day. Right mother?"
she sighed " I was looking forward on spending the day with you my dear. You know you are leaving after all, God knows when I will see you again"
"glad to know you still remember that not only today is my birthday but also My leaving day." I commented.
"why would you assume that I forgot." mother asked absolutely annoyed by my comment.
"Maybe it's because you were smiling and your face lit with eager excitement moments ago."
My mother slammed her hand harshly on the table that had me wondering if her hands turned red.
"Just because I'm not being pessimistic Like you Doesn't mean that I'm happy with you leaving. I Iove you. You are my daughter!" she yelled
"you love me" I snorted. " what u did with Jason tell otherwise." My heart sank remembering what she have done.
" What does Jason have to so with this? I thought we agreed not to bring him up ages ago. plus we both know you Two weren't made for each other."
"HOW WOULD KNOW THAT!" I stared throwing my hands in the air.
"Why do I feel like we have done this before? I'm going to say it again. Jason was no good for you and I didn't want you two to end up like me and your father." she explained but it wasn't enough for me. She have the nerve to compare her husband to Jason.
I started laughter. It wasn't a true laughter it was a mocking one. " are u blaming Jason for my father's mistakes just because they have the same sign"
"Yesss!! he is a Gemini. you should never trust a gimini two faced motherfuckers." she defended her self.
"I can't believe that this bullshit is coming from my mother."
"What did you wanted me to do,huh? he wins a gimini and you are Leo both of you are not compatible. If you expected me to sit there and watch my daughter drag herself in dust and ruin her life then u are wrong! If I had let you two be together, the government would sooner or later find out about you forbidden relationship. God knows what would have happened to you." She shouted.
I immediately grabbed my keys and spang out of this house like a wounded animal.
what a great way to start the day.
