Chapter 1
I walked down the hallway while holding onto my backpack like it's my second skin and my life depended on it. I took in the beautiful structure of Garfield High. The students going into their various classes, How I wish they could be this beautiful in and out, I sigh with the thought of that, keeping my face down, and Ignoring all types of disgusting stares I'm getting, should I say I'm used to it? Well, Nah, I keep getting Panic attacks each time I get one of those stares, and it's an involuntary action.
I find my way to my locker trying to be as fast as I can be, to escape Kendall's wrath today, I never escape any of her bullies, I don't know why she hates me so much.
"Maybe you do know" she whispered in my head
"Stop creeping into my thoughts you Freak" I said frustratedly, like it's the first time she will be doing it.
"Maybe it's because she is jealous of you." She ignored what I just said
"But they choose to make my life miserable."
I sighed tirelessly and unlocked my locker to take out the books for the lesson.
"What's that smell?" I could hear Kendall saying
``Oh she's here." She added
I sigh, proceeding with what I was doing in my locker.
Heels clicked as they all walked to me and, if I say all, I mean Kendall and her clique.
They are three of them, just because she is popular, rich, and dating Dylan she turned herself into some queen that must be worship, stupid!.
I tried my best not to look them in the eye because I've been punished a lot of times for that and I don't think I'm ready for any drama this morning.
"Where else could the smell come from when the freaky psycho is here" said Katrina while chewing her gum loudly like she always does.
They are the K-QUEENS, Kendall the leader, "Katrina, and Kayla, the handbag" she said loudly in my head.
"Just shut up" shaking my head as if I'm trying to shake her off from my mind.
"Oh well, look who we have here" She said looking at me
"blue jeans, black baggy hoodie, signature dark shades" said Kendall as she looks at me from head to toe with disdain and a fake laugh that doesn't even last a second.
"You're hiding, aren't you?" She asked while I kept my face down, never saying a word
"You know why I hate you?" She asked.
I nodded my head because I've banned myself from speaking, I don't even know when last I've talked to someone not even Mum.
"Because you're a freak, you don't talk you hide your eyes in those stupid freaky shades"
"you know what? take those glasses off" she said pointing at me.
I keep my face down ignoring her like I never hear what she says.
"You know what babe let's just leave, or we are going to be late for class, you know how I don't like missing class," Dylan said
The heck! Dylan has been here the whole time, and Yes Dylan is a geek after me. He only topped me once in a test and that's because Kendall didn't let me in for the test on time, I've been an all A student from elementary school.
"Not until I get what I want" Kendall grumbled
"Hey you look at me" she barked at me getting angry because I ignored her
I slowly look up at her, oh wow the student has already gathered, I mean what did I expect, the student here just enjoys watching someone getting bullied, especially when the bully is Kendall.
"Take off those shades now" she barked, while I slowly nod my head in disagreement
"You don't want me doing it for you, do you?" She said with a sly smile plastered on her pretty face
I slowly remove the shades, my eye color is complicated, at times it is bright blue, green, brown, black and so on, it depends on the person staring deep into it. I've been taken to the doctor, but I was said to be perfectly fine. Yeah I know I'm not, no one knows what I'm passing through.
The whole hall gasped immediately. I took off the shades as their jaws dropped, all staring at me, while some were trying their best to catch a glimpse of my face.
"F**k, your eye is so pretty".
Damn! Why did you hide those pretty eyes?" Dylan muttered, staring at me dreamingly and the whole hall gasped in surprise as they kept on videoing what's going on.
"What!!!, Did you just call that ugly eye, pretty?" Yelled Kendall facing Dylan while the rest of the K-Queens stare at me jealousy on their face
Wait did he just say my eyes and face are pretty, I'm so in for it today.
And is that jealousy I sensed, that doesn't seem good!
"What? I'm just stating the obvious truth" Dylan retorted
"you know what?" she said facing me.
"Your eyes are so ugly like the outfit you're putting on, and your face looks like cow poop, and you remains the ugly FREAK we all know, now put on those stupid shades and get the hell out of here freak, you stink" she yelled grabbing Dylan hand who keeps staring at me with her cliques and walked away from the hallway.
I stood there at my locker processing what just happened. She didn't inflict pain on me like she always does but left angrily, is that a good thing?
I shake off the thought as I continue with what I was doing while the student starts leaving the scene for their various classes, I mean what else? Show is over.
The bell rung and went for class, I found my favorite seat and spot, that was at the back of the class close to the window I sat there listening to whatever the teacher was teaching, I jot down the important note I could grasp, either I read or not I will still pass as long as I'm in class when the teaching was going on.
Soon enough the class was over , then we had three more subjects before the bell rang for lunch.
I hurriedly pack my books and left the class room for lunch, ignoring everybody so as to not lands in any body wrath especially Kendall, I just had an encounter with her in the morning, that make her left angrily, who knows, maybe she is planning something huge that I don't think I need right now, for me.
I skipped through the hallway to the locker room to dump my books and off to the cafeteria, not without taking my backpack that contains my journal with me, who knows.
I took out the money given to me this morning by mum and pay for the meal I just ordered, I took my tray and walk to my favorite spot, it is at the back of the right hand corner of the cafeteria, I dropped my tray of food on the empty table and my backpack on the chair, who will want to seat with a loser like me? Their words not mine.
I was munching on my food slowly when the adrenaline rushed in, the feeling of pain mixed with anxiety, my shaky hands and thumping chest.
"Oh no, Not here!"
