SOMETIMES U NEED SOMEONE TO TELL U ITS OKAY,IT WASN'T YOUR FAULT"
"NAME?"the principal of FENWAY highschool asked me.I must say Fenway is an outstanding highschool with more than 30 years of experience, and maintenance make me drool over it.
"Rachel park"I answered coming out of my drooling session.
"I know that I asked for your Parents Name,You look too lost are you okay?"The principal mocked at the same time. He asked the question from which I was running the whole time or I say a question I don't want to answer.
"They are dead"I said after taking a deep breath.
"Dead really so you are telling me the woman who called me to register you here, is not your mother or she called from her grave" he said while trying to be funny.
"She really called you from a grave, They say a house without children is like a living grave….and yeah for me SHE IS DEAD" I said being annoyed he took my interview and told me some important rules which everyone have to follow to survive in this Glorious School,then finally I was allowed to come out.
I sat on stairs and lost into my thoughts,from nowhere a question popped up DO I REALLY HATE HER?....DO I REALLY HATE THE WOMAN WHO GAVE BIRTH TO ME?....DO I...ugh it's frustrating.
"YOU CAN'T HATE THE PERSON,U LOVED ONCE
While I was drowning in my thoughts a boy with blue eyes,middle height and fine figure came to me and sat beside me.He was smiling like he is a lottery winner and he is about to be a billionaire.I don't wanna be rude but I couldn't think any better.
"Hey! Newbee?" He said with his sweet voice.instead of answering I asked him a question making him frown.
"Are you a watchman?"He saw me amusingly like I belonged to another planet.
"I am what ?" he asked surprisingly.
"No I didn't mean that,ugh."I covered up.
"Actually I am new too and looking for friends. I saw you alone, so I thought you are new too so that's why I approached you".he explained while I was mentally slapping myself.
"I am sorry you have come to the wrong person,I don't believe in any types of relationships.they are meant to be broken and I am the best example of it."I said while thinking of my past experiences.
"This is not true.Everyone faces problems and had the worst experience,but remember one thing don't punish yourself because someone betrayed your trust and don't judge others through them, trust me you are not gonna end up again and again in the same broken state so don't lose hope keep fighting and stand up after falling."he said being confident.
"How are you so sure.I lost My Father,My Mother sent me to an orphanage where I was humiliated every single day, they even don't forgive me on sunday"I taunted.
"I don't know where my family is. I lost them during a parade but I know one fine day I will find them"he said hopefully. "One thing I never lost, it's hope do you know why,having it makes me feel alive". His words touched my heart.He was right.He stand up from stairs and said "by the way I am ALEX HARVEY nice to meet you"
"Rachel park"I said with a smile and he left for the library.
******************************
I was walking in the corridor thinking about alex words when suddenly I bumped into someone.God knows who the hell was it.
"Ahh! are you blind"she said snapping her fingers in my direction.
"I can say the same to you,where were you seeing?"I fought back. The girl was indeed beautiful, blonde hair, green eyes, fair complexion but the meeting was not as good as her figure.
"Don't you know who you are talking to? I am JENNIE FORBES queen of fenway so watch when you talk".she said flipping her hair back.
"Ohh sorry My majesty! My foot, you are at fault equally ms.jennie forbes so acknowledge it before I make you".I answered her back.
"I think your mother didn't bother to teach you manners."and here she shut me up she attacked on my weakest point.
"Jennie, someone from back, called her. A boy with blue eyes,perfect figure,tall height with fine complexion was staring at her.First I thought he was her boyfriend but when I heard them talking it was the opposite of my imagination.
"MARCUS you here!"she said.
"What the hell is your problem sister? Why are you arguing again and what kind of harshful words you are using." Marcus said.
"She bumped into me, '' Jennie said.I saw them both arguing and I walked away.
*****************************
I was thinking of what happened earlier. Suddenly a similar voice crossed my ears. I looked back and realized it was marcus.
"Are you okay?"he asked me.
"Yeah actually I am habitual of all these"I sighed.
"I am sorry for jennie's behaviour.she's a bit rude,circumstances of life made her like this" he said while chuckling.
"It's okay, it's the fault of those who force her to be like this"I said showing hatred to my mother.
" It looks like you have gone through alot"he said, making me amused.
"Ohh you are good at reading people tell me your secret ''I said being friendly.
"My secret is lesson of life we gone through alot of pain, To my mother died and my father he haven't done anything to be called as father, In short he don't care about us but we can't blame him after all he lost the person he loved the most in entire world".He said with sad voice. "I know he will realize one day that people who are alive deserve more love than those who are gone soon or later anyways. I have Jennie to look after and friends who care for me so I say I am happy right now" he said really positively.
"After all of this you still think everything will be fine"I asked and he smiled at me and said the cheesiest line on earth. "Try to be positive, eventually everything dark will turn into a rainbow".
"What's your side of the story?"he asked.
"To be honest I don't really like to talk about this and it's the worst topic to talk about,"I answered.
"Don't go hard on yourself,let everything out, you deserve to love and to be loved," he said comforting me.
"My father is dead, my mother hates me because somehow in her sight I am responsible for his death so she sent me to hell which you know as an orphanage and this is a beautiful, terrific story of my life."I explained my pitiful story to him.
"Chill girl ! I am sure your mom will realize one day and run back to you so until then enjoy your life and give me a chance as your friend".he winked at me.
"Thanks Marcus,you are amazing".I said.
"Welcome,let's go let's make you meet Danny Humphrey, the biggest joker i've known"he smiled.
I was feeling so good after a long time.True friends are like light in your dark days. They make you feel better so choose them wisely.
*******************************
We were walking through the corridor. I saw Alex talking to a boy. Frankly speaking he was looking so innocent with his brown puppy eyes and sharp jaw ,his height was fine and the figure was perfect.
"Alex,"I called him out and made my presence valuable.
"Danny"Marcus called at the same time.
"Rach meet the biggest joker, DANNY HUMPHREY,"Marcus said, like he was calling someone on stage.
"Hi joker aka danny humphrey and it's nice to see you again alex harvey"I said friendly.
"How do you two and you two know each other?"Marcus asked, pointing at Alex and me and Alex and danny.
"I met him at the library,"Danny answered.
"I met him on my first day on the stairs"I cleared the confusion.
"We all met coincidentally here wow great"Marcus said in a funny way.
"How did both of you meet?"Danny asked, pointing towards me and marcus.
"She bumped into jennie and beep…."Marcus said.
"Oh my god you bumped into jennie and you're still in one piece ahh you are a survivor" Danny mocked.
"Don't make me start...and yeah it's not easy to win from rachel park too..i know how to handle people like jennie."I said annoyingly.
While we were exchanging information a bell rang we found out we have music class in common so we went together and Marcus went to call jennie for class.We all are different from each other but one thing is definitely common in us that we love music.
******************************
We sat together in music class. We were all on good terms with each other except me and Jennie. We are still not close. It will take time and I am willing to give it.We come to know our music teacher has changed and today we are gonna meet a new one.
"Hello! Beautiful people i am ANDREW PITT your new music teacher" he said with his cool voice.
"So tell me what music gives us,pointing at Jennie"he asked.
"Lyrics"she said, making a weird face which made the whole class laugh. I must say she is not sentimental like others.
"Okay stop everyone you tell me Alex"he asked again.
"Music makes us dance like idiots,"he said, smiling like an idiot and this time the whole class was laughing hurting theri stomach.
"You are the same as jennie mr.Alex"mr.andrew said then he asked Danny
"Music comforts us and relax our mind"he answered confidently.
"Great! Marcus u tell us what u think"
He asked again.
"Music gives us permission to feel"
He said and I was delighted.
"Bravo! Anybody else who has a better defination"he said I raised my hand.
"Music define our mood swings, when we are happy we enjoy music and when we are sad we understand lyrics"
"AMAZING"as he said the period got over and we five went yo cafeteria where jennie apologize for her behavior and there started a new friendship.
We five bonded great over these years. I left old Rachel park behind and the new Rachel park was born who knows how to smile,she is confident and above all she believes in hope.
We grow hand in hand our friendship become strong like roots of tree and sweet like cotton candy.We become each other shelter,in all this happiness I stopped thinking about my filthy past but they said it right,
"NIGHTMARE WON'T LEAVE U, SLEEP PEACEFULLY
