DOUBLE FACED
(What's the real you?)
CHAPTER ONE
ANNIE'S POV
"Anny how well do you enjoy sitting alone in your room all day I mean you've not even sat in the living room for up to a minute today, what is it that is so interesting about your room, that you'd rather stay there than to join us in the living room? You're absolutely weird and different". Mom always complain about me staying in the room and this was her complaining again
"Mom you know I don't like trouble I'd rather stay in my room even when it is boring than to avoid any form of discussion you can use against me later". I don't know why mom is concerned about me staying in my room is not like she ever gives me the chance to relate with her like a normal daughter to mother relationship, especially because she always misunderstands me she simply never get me and I think she would never do cuz she has tried so many times to be the best mother, but I don't think it would be possible. I accepted my fate already so am used to it
Ok let me introduce myself
I'm Annette Ivy, Anny or Anne for short. Am from an average family of 6, two older sisters and one brother then my parents and I, I old parents I mean old enough to be my grandparents. I'm not too beautiful like everyone's desire but I've begin to accept my fate it's not like I chose my face or I created myself. Let me stop there for now
I inserted the ear piece back into my ears and enjoyed the music, yeah that's what I do most times when am alone, just listen to music or think about life generally.

"Anny what is taking you so long, hurry up to avoid being late" That has been my mum usually morning rhythm every morning, I just continued dressing up without saying anything, and went down when I was done
The driver drove my to school, I greeted the guard man at the gate and he didn't give any response as usual I wonder why I still greet that man, I walked into the school thinking about how today's going to be. I sat on my sit and inserted my earpiece as usual, I always do that every morning before the teacher comes to class or during our free periods. After about 20-25 minutes I stood and headed for the library to read.
"Oh you clumsy fool you spilled chemical on my coat" Amelia screamed loud drawing attention to us, the whole class was now looking at us
"I'm really sorry" I said and was about to leave cuz I knew Amelia hated me so well and might want to create a scene to embrace me, but as I was about leaving she cried out loud like a baby whose lollies was collected
"What's going on here?" the chemistry teacher asked, I knew I might land in trouble because Amelia was one of Miss Isla 's favorite, and Miss Isla never liked me
"I said what's going on here?" She screamed again I was already scared
"Speak up poor thing!" Amelia shouted
"I'm sorry Miss Isla, the chemical spilling on her coat is both of us fault cuz we both bummed into each other, and I already apologized to Amelia, right Amelia" I asked even though I knew she would never admit I actually apologize, but I just decided to ask her and just like I expected she lied
"She apologized" a guy answered from the class and stood up
"She apologized didn't she?" He said and faced the whole class
"She apologized right, You heard her apologize right, Didn't she apologize?" He went round the class asking different people and they all said yes, then Miss Isla let it slide, I wonder what my punishment would be this time around.
I walked back to my sit and place my heard on the table forgetting to thank the person that vindicated me
