Stella POV.You're not special, you can be one in a hundred, but do you know how many hundreds there are out in the world thousands of one in a hundred, you can be one in a million and still there are hundreds of those, you can be one in a billion and even then with seven point eight billion people out there, you're not the only one out there.My point is, you're not that special, there are others who are just like you, and there are ones who have it worse or have it better, don't be such a drama queen, you're not that special, you're just you.That's what I was taught growing up, I'm not that special, I shouldn't be feeling or thinking that I'm that one girl, that I'm the girl who's gonna wake up and take over the world, I'm not going to find the cure to cancer although it would be really cool if I do, but I'm not that smart in school I doubt that I'll be able to do it.My name is Stella, I'm sixteen years old, and I'm the most normal girl out there, I'm not special, I'm not someone
Stella POV."Which room do you want Stella, cause whatever she wants, I want," Finn says with a big teasing smile on, but I wasn't in the mood, as soon as we walked inside this house, I felt like I didn't belong here, I knew I had to leave, to run out, toward the wood and hide."Finn, leave your sister alone, she's having a hard time," mom scolds him."Come on, Stella, on the pictures they sent, there's this one room that would be perfect for you," dad says going up the stairs and dragging me along with him, I didn't want to go up, but it felt like I was on autopilot."This one," dad says opening the door to one room, it looked to be very small, like a small closet, it's where you put the unwanted child if there was no space underneath the stairwell."This one?" I repeat to dad."Well, no, not this one, this is the extra storage room for your mother, come on," dad says leaving the first room and going into the next one, it was a bathroom, he's putting me in a bathroom now?"Ryan, I gu
Stella POV."Ready to go?" Dad asked me, he saw the milk out of the fridge, and he said he was very proud of me for having milk and being healthy, I had to hold back my laugh, I was having coffee, but he didn't need to know that."I hate you, I hate the world, grrr," Finn says walking out, he was dragged out, and pushed toward the car, and he took a nap in the car as dad drove us toward the school, the whole place was covered by wood if I pay attention, I'll notice that there are other houses around, we're not the only ones out there, maybe if I scream my sound would be heard after all, I think to myself with a chuckle, I won't die a long and painful death after all."How are we gonna come back home?" I asked my mom, if they only have one car, and if dad is taking it to work, how would we move around?"You can take the bus," Mom said, and I looked at her with wide eyes."Mom, the bus? Really?" I asked her, maybe it's cool to get on the bus around here, but I had my doubts, taking the
Stella POV."What do we have next?" I groaned to my friend, I didn't want to look at my schedule, and I was in a bad mood, Mr James had ruined my hopes and dreams of having a nice day at school."Can I see your schedule?" she asks and I hand it over, showing her my schedule, she looks through the whole thing, pointing to all the classes we're gonna be sharing, I was happy to have a friend finally."We got one more class before lunch, come on it's not the worst class ever," Calesti promises me with a smile on her face."Calesti," I say getting her attention, we're becoming friends, I hoped, having a friend makes things a lot better."Yeah?" she says with the same smile on her face."My brother is here in the school with us, I wanted to check on him," I tell her, telling his grades next, he's younger than us."Oh, they're having lunch right now, you two won't be meeting a lot, they keep us separated since the younger students and the older ones keep starting fights," Calesti answers me,
Stella POV."Did you text mom?" I asked my brother, the whole place and area looked the same, everything looked so similar, I couldn't decide if we made it or not."I did, she's lost as well," Finn says with a groan, we have found the bus, we're not the only ones on the bus, but we're the lost ones, and we're the ones who don't even know where our home is."Great, how are we supposed to get home?" I say on the verge of tears, I was always the crybaby, and this whole place is driving me insane, this place is pushing me to the edge."We'll get off the next stop and walk until we find home," Finn says, it's the best plan any of us had so far, and so I agreed with him when we found the bus stop, we got out of the bus and started to walk, there are numbers, there are names of the streets, so you'd think we won't be lost."So where is home?" I ask Finn, hoping he knew the number of our home at least or the name of the street."No idea, text dad, you're his favourite," Finn says and I roll m
Stella POV.I woke up at school, I wasn't very excited about school, but if I went to school then I wouldn't have to go to the stupid doctor, I'm fine, I don't have anything that's wrong with me, I was just tired, I was scared and things happened, but I'm fine, I'm healthy.I wore my uniform and fixed my hair, I got my bag and walked down to the kitchen to meet with the rest, I sat down and ate my breakfast waiting for Finn and dad to join us too."You're going to school?" Dad asks me."You say it like it's a bad thing," I say with a shrug."I'm still going to get you a doctor's appointment," Dad says in a firm voice."But I need to get to school dad, I can't skip, we just started school yesterday," I say sounding hurt over the fact that I'm going to be skipping school."She's right, let her go to school," Mom says with a smile on her face."Thanks, mom," I say with a big smile on my face, it felt like I got out of going to the doctor and I'm happy about that."Come on, let's go," dad
Stella POV.A strange number was calling me, I looked at my phone and looked at Mom, we're still in the car, we're going back home, the doctor's news wasn't that good, the doctor said I was a bit underweight, and that I need to take some kind of vitamins, I glared at the doctor as he kept on going talking about how the sun and the town weather would fix me up, would make me feel better, but I only glared at him, I'll be much better if I go back home."What's going on?" Mom asks me as I'm looking at my phone confused."A number is calling me, it's a strange one, no one knows my American number," I say, we didn't have time for me to switch numbers yet, so no one is supposed to know this number."Answer it, maybe it's your father," she says, but my dad was still using his American number as well, he messages and never calls, but maybe he's just worried about me, I answered the starnge number still very confused about who that is."Hello," I answer the phone."Stella, are you okay?" A voi
Calesti POV.Jealousy is a green monster, jealousy is behind most fights among children, the ones who can't control their feelings and end up hurting each other, I know we're not like others, I know we're different but we should respect each other feelings.Theo is my cousin, he's like a brother to me, we're good friends, we might not be spending a lot of time together at school, but outside of school we're good friends, and we spend a lot of time together.I'm not a human, and neither is Theo, and that might be really cool, it's fun and all, but Theo is messing with the wrong person, Theo is too close to having his ass handed to him by our boss, that to put it in human terms, and messing with Milo never ends up well.When Theo dragged the human girl out of the restaurant I followed them, I don't trust Theo alone with her either, I know he's her number one protector, he'll be the one who'd keep her safe always and forever, but that doesn't mean that he won't get mad or overwhelm her w
