Changes in me

I was angry.

Why would my mother have waited until I had made all my plans? Had all my dreams at my fingertips, and finally received the long-awaited decision to tell me that in the end, I could not go to this university. Ah, she must have laughed a lot to see me anxious while waiting for the answer, she must have burst out laughing at my impatience at the idea of ​​good or bad news.

All my dreams were mortgaged and it was no less than this answer that made them almost inaccessible. All the while, my mother was by my side, reassuring me that I shouldn't give up hope, yet she knew she wouldn't agree if there was a favorable response. Why was she even being so mean to me?

I'm racking my brain to figure it out, but so far I can't find a worthwhile explanation for his irrational behavior. Yes, irrational is the word.

I hit a stone in my path before growling in anger. What was her point this time around? Telling me that I can't go to this training school or any other university? But why? Maybe I should have listened to her reasons... No.

She has no reasons, no reason can explain this reversal of the situation. I sighed before calming down, it's no use brooding alone in my corner, it's even stupid.

My mother has always done everything for me, she has always been a devoted person to me, so if she reacts like this, she must have a very good reason. Maybe she's afraid that I'll go far away and I'll abandon her.

It's normal, just as I only have her as a family, she must also feel the same as me. Except for me, I have friends, dreams, and life ahead of me, my mother dedicated everything to me. She gave me all results it must certainly hurt her to see me go. Like any parent, she must feel that she will now be alone and that frightens her.

I probably shouldn't have judged her so quickly. Poor her, she has to figure out her future life away from me, it will be difficult, but it's up to me to find the words to reassure her, just like she did with me when something didn't work in my life.

I smiled before recovering myself, yes my mother has always been my bulwark, it is my duty today to guarantee her some inner peace. I took a breath and finally, I arrived in front of my high school.

Although the end of the year is on the horizon, there were still many students in the buildings and I could already see my friends waving at me in the distance. My boyfriend Chad is also there with my best friend Stacy. The two smile at me so cheerfully that I even forget my worries.

I run over to them and eventually find them sitting on the table next to Chad. He grabbed me by the shoulders kissing me on the forehead under the whistles of the other people in front of us.

We are in all six at this place. The popular people's corner. Yes, it's quite arrogant on my part but it's the reality, there are castes and I, Sophia Carpenter, am the queen bee of this school.

But no, I'm not a ruthless tyrant as one might imagine, I'm a gentle and kind person, kind to everyone and polite as well. The proof, everyone adores me, whether they are athletes, cheerleaders, geeks, and normal people. I've never been mean to anyone, at least I hope.

We all sit together as Chad whispers to me his impatience to finally be on my birthday and I blush.

What can he be thinking in front of people like that? I shook my head before I smelled a rather peculiar smell and my ears started ringing. I frowned as I looked around. I had a bad feeling as if there was something out of place in the lot as if something was happening that deserved my attention.

" babe, what's up?"

I looked at Chad before realizing everyone was looking at me. Stacy placed her hand over mine before speaking back.

"You seem worried. Look you're frowning so much I feel like you're going to leave a bad mark on yourself, you should take care of your face."

I sighed realizing that I don't want to draw attention to myself right now but that smell lingered so much it made me nauseous. _

"You do not feel something? "

The others tried to feel if there was something strange in the air before shaking their heads negatively.

" No, I don't feel anything, and you? "

"The same.."

Everyone now had a heavy look on me as I couldn't ignore that smell that lingered even in the back of my mind. It had become like an obsession as I stood up looking genuinely concerned. I listened for people to complain and pointed to the chemistry room.

"it smells of fire and a little blood over there..."

The others looked at me with strange faces and Chad held my shoulders.

" Babe, are you okay? "

" Hey, you must be anxious about the long wait... Tell me the school's answer hasn't always arrived?"

Stacy wanted to change the subject but I wasn't in the mood. I felt this angst in the voices of the people in the chemistry room and decided to run toward them.

" Sophia... "

I heard the others calling me and soon I was in front of the chemistry building. The others joined me before realizing that through the windows of the chemistry room, there was smoke coming out.

" Damn there is fire."

People started shouting and we saw three students come out in alarm.

"What's happening? "

" The delegate is still there, we have tried everything but the door remains blocked and the fire has already covered the room... The firefighters are on their way but we don't know when they will arrive."

I gritted my teeth as I felt the panic of the person inside. The firefighters wouldn't arrive in time if it continued like this, he was dying. Without waiting, I ran inside without listening to my friends who were trying to talk me out of it, but I had an urgent feeling inside me that commanded me to go to this potential victim.

I ran Without waiting, surprising me with the speed and the breath I had, who was so bad at sports, I arrived in front of the chemistry room and I realized that the door was blocked. I frowned before grabbing the doorknob and with a flick the door flew up the stairs.

My eyes were bulging in surprise but hearing moans inside, I woke up and went to look for the person inside despite the flames. I found it and wore it very easily, too much for my taste. It didn't take me long to bring him back to the others outside when like me everyone was amazed by my courage and especially the fact that I managed to save this boy.

I didn't feel at peace with this change in me either and I started to tremble. I had like tingling all over my body but worse, a voice. There was a voice inside of me commanding me to return home immediately. At first, I thought I was completely delirious but after feeling pressure on my chest following my refusal to listen to the voice, I decided to obey.

I ran away from my friends hearing them calling me from afar as I walked towards my house. What's going on in my body and why do I feel so... Free?
