I couldn't wait to get to my new class final year will be fun...I thought but I knew it couldn’t be that fun, no friends no boyfriend, what a boring life I thought, I remove my headset, hang it over my neck, sipping my coffee before I took my seat, I could hear various thought, different things going through peoples’ minds so to avoid all of those I decided to put my headset back on.I was about to put my headset back on when something caught my attention, it was Hanna's inner voice 'he's so handsome’ I heard her exclaimed, ‘how can a nerd be so gorgeous' she added, I was starting to feel irritated, I looked back to see the new guy they were all ogling at, he wasn't bad I thought as I turned to the front, I saw Hanna staring at me, then I heard her inner voice say, 'looks like the isolated beauty found him attractive too', I smirked on that, and I heard her curse using her inner voice, ‘nobody does that to me,' she added then tu

"What are you doing?" He asked me looking at me sternly, despite holding my hand I couldn't hear his thoughts, I pulled away from him and stood, "I wanted to wake you," I said and started moving, I was almost late for class, I saw Mr. Blair on the way but I run past him to get to class, looks like Mister handsome will face Mr. Blair after all, I thought as I settle down, Mr. Blair was a black dude who managed to make dread look cool, he was addressing us about the semester topics when Adrian came in. "Hey, you?" Mr. Blair called as Adrian was walking towards his seat, he turned to him in surprise "Why...are.. you...just coming?" He asked through gritted teeth annoyed, He was upset...really mad, he had a misunderstanding with one of the teachers and was ready to punish any student that messed up today, he didn't want to care if we just resumed, thanks to his mashed up thoughts I was able to pick out something. "I asked you why you are just coming!?" He yelled at the dumbfounded Ad

"Mom I'm ready to go," I said standing from the dining table, well it's another day of school. "Goodbye dad, mom," I said pecking them both. "Bye dear," mom replied casually. "Bye" my dad shrugged taking his coffee, I don't get along well with my dad you can guess why. "Should I drop you off?" My mum offered, "No... I'll take the bus" I turned down politely raising my headset to my ear, finally leaving. I was leaving our compound which was fenced round with designed wooden bars, pointed and painted with white, when I saw Mrs. Smith's car, a small red Camry pass by, she stopped and call on me through the window, I didn't hear at first, but when I saw her head poked through the window I had to raise down my headset. "Morning" I greeted indifferently as I enter her car after beckoning me to get in. "Morning" Mrs. Smith and Ashley replied, Ashley was in front and I was sitting next to Adrian. "How are you, Natalie?" She asked nicely with a jolly bright smile on her face afte

I know Adrian's problem was psychological, but I can't figure out exactly what was wrong with him. I sighed as I watch him in the clinic bed, we had rushed him to the school clinic after calling him several times and he was still unconscious, but he had been attended to after immediately he was brought. Mrs. Smith entered as I watch him sleeping peacefully after he was attended to, Mrs. Smith sighed after placing her hand on his forehead. "What happened?" She turned to me and asked after that. "He put up for me when I was ganged up against. Then he suddenly- "Reacted " Mrs. Smith completed and took her seat next to his bed. "He has a psychological problem. He is sociophobic, can't stay in a social environment, he is isolated, I didn't want him to be sociopathic because of his phobia, that's why I had him transferred to have him under my watch, so he can relate since we had it under control. We already get him some drugs that seem to work perfectly for him I just-" She sighed aft

"Hi" I greeted feeling suddenly nervous. "And you are?" Adrian's dad asked turning to me. "Natalie... My name's Natalie" I introduced feeling a little terrified of him. "She's my friend" Adrian added proudly and he nodded, Thankfully. "Glad you finally had one" Mr. Smith commented, I could hear his thoughts too, he was really happy Adrian finally had a friend and he was worried as well. "I heard it happened again in school today," Mr. Smith said referring to the incident in school, from his thoughts he hate the fact that Adrian was weak which irritate me on my end because he was supposed to be on his side. "I'm sorry" I apologized making him stare at me. "I got into trouble and Adrian had to put up for me" I defended him. "Adrian put up for you?" He asked surprised, he really thinks Adrian is weak, always coiled up and avoiding trouble. "Yes...I was surprised he did that despite his condition" I added studying Mr. Smith's expression closely. "Nat-" Adrian tried to s

Mrs. Smith brought me to school again and I thought that was somehow raising my savings I was glad. I didn't talk much to Adrian today, because many things were assumed already including something was going on between us, and not just that, I didn't want to be like I'm throwing myself at him. I shouldn't be the only one calling on him, he should try to be communicative...sometimes, Hanna has been giving me killer look since I arrived in school not just her but Bob too, they were planning something and I had no idea cause I couldn't get an explicit detail from their thoughts. During recess, I left to sign up for my extracurricular activity, I have always been a karate girl, and a good swimmer, I'm also a basketball freak but I couldn't sign up for basketball not now that I'm studying for my final exams, but I love Karate the best, I was the best karate student last year, I can't lie my ability is really helping in this, in every training I was able to gain more moves using the experts'

"Hey, guys! don't you think you're suffocating us by filling up the space" I said trying to get them to move away, I could see Adrian was trying his best to hold it in. "Oh come on Nat...You should know no one gets this topic, it was like the teacher was rapping at the board all I could make out was X, that's all I keep hearing" Gregor gruffed and the class laughed as usual, Adrian was sweating, his breath getting shallow. "Adrian, would you mind teaching us the topic please?" Cassie pouted trying to look cute and pitiful but I grunted in disgust. "Oh come on guys we have somewhere to be," I said having a headache myself, my head was crowded, all noise in my head makes me wanna faint, I took his hand and take my bag since he was already carrying his and lead him out, we were around the stairs up to the floor of the library when I turned to Adrian as he was breathing so fast. "Hey, you okay?" I asked worried for him but he didn't say anything he just hugged me. "It's okay Adrian,

"Hey" I heard Alfred's voice, I couldn't have mistaken that, he was actually the person bending over to me as I slowly open my eyes, so that implies...I am still alive. That's a relief, Mr Smith will be so disappointed to think I'm dead."Hey...you're awake" Alfred asked and I nodded slowly and painfully."How long have I been out?" I drawled."Two days" Andy replied making herself noticeable at the corner she stood staring worriedly at me."That long? damn, I've missed pretty much of things. Classes, training, oh hell-"I found you very unbelievable, you've been lying down for two days and the first thing you worry about is classes?!" Nicholas exclaimed in disbelief before scoffing, leaving me embarrassed he's right, I've missed Mr Smith call for the day before, we are always communicating so I could inform him of my progress. He'll be pretty worried, Nicholas shook his

"Hey" I greeted as I sauntered into my room and my roommates all shoot to their feet immediately."Where on earth have you been?" Andy literally yelled."I'm sorry" I apologized timidly."Well...I think you owe us all an explanation" Emily started with her face narrowed at me in question."We were worried sick about you" Andy added, her voice lace with concern."Guys...I'm fine, I just had take care something" I briefed."Well...how's your wound? I heard Nicholas whoop the ass outta ya" Emily mocked and I batted my lashes at her feeling irritated."Emily! That's painful" Andy reprimanded her with a frown on her face."I'm fine...how's Tina?" I asked recalling she wasn't feeling so well."You should worry more about yourself" I heard her mutter as she walked out of the bathroom with

"Come on guys" I said trying to persuade Andy and Alfred to talk to me since they refuse to say anything ever since the post was decided."You screwed up" Andy snapped harshly."I'm sorry. I just think it's for the best, he's better than us-"Don't you get it. You just made him a gamma, our team leader, he has authority over us. He's in control now and you just gave him your life Ari, like that wasn't enough. If anything happen to you...we don't know what we'll do" Andy explained despondently making me feel warm from the inside, she was very sincere."I'll be careful" I promised."I'm sorry" I said with my hand on her shoulder."It's okay" she said finally and I hugged her."Alfred" I called immediately I released Andy."Come here you" he said and I hug him, together with Andy."AAAA" He said taking a selfie of

"Where were you?" Andy asked as I came strolling down from the control building."Just...out to see someone" I replied stuttering a little."Really? I don't like the tone of that" She asked narrowing her face at me in suspicion."Trust me everything is fine" I assured reading her thoughts, she thought something was wrong. Not anyone can come to the control building."Are you sure?" She pressed."Trust me I'm cool" I said going along with her."Hey" someone called behind us indignantly and we both look back."Nich-"Was it you?" He snarled cutting me short."What?" I asked cluelessly not too sure of what he meant."This" he said showing his bandaged hand, I was quiet, I couldn't tell him I helped him treat his wounds."I wonder if you're stupid or just clueless" He e

"I have nothing to do with what was stolen" I declared though many believed me. They still find it very hard to accept it."Andy....did you see her take it?" Mrs Georgia asked but Andy stood looking at me. She was certain she saw me but, she wasn't completely sure."Andy" Mrs Georgia called some of softly after seeing how quiet she was."I...I don't know, I can't remember" She finally answered looking at my sombre expression."Alfred" Mrs Georgia called out to Alfred."I didn't" he declared without doubt. He had a memory of seeing me though, but he just couldn't bring himself to tell them he saw me."But you both agreed you saw her closing her locker after putting some files inside. Which was found out to be exactly what we we're looking for?" Mrs Georgia asked staring at them suspiciously."I said books...not files" Alfred rephrase

"I'm so exited about tomorrow" I said to Andy who was busy with her nails."You know what! There's so much you don't know about climbing Ariana" She voiced checking out her nails"What's there to know about? Its just climbing! "I shrugged trying to get her to explain what she meant."No...it's not just climbing, all team is ready to do anything to get that flag and that includes eliminating anyone who try stopping them" She explained while I still gave a nonchalant look because I would do anything as well."Why would they do that?" I asked not too certain what the term 'eliminate' implies."Ariana... don't mess with anybody tomorrow. Especially not the Neutrons" She advised earnestly."But...why?" I asked but she just kept quiet, from her thoughts I could sense she was deeply hurt, she had lost her friend in mountain climbing last year, they all claim she

"You could actually lose your badge for that" I reminded her really glad I've gone through the rules, the girl retracted at once."Jane...Kelly, go catch a seat" Alveera instructed and they did as told after throwing some murderous stares at me. Then I actually realised Alveera was my team leader, she left after ensuring we were in order and moved to the other gammas who was seated in the front.I didn't pay much attention to the whole presentation thing. I wanted to get started, and I knew I have when Lady Georgia call on me and Alfred, she led us to the gymnasium and start addressing us."I'm lady Georgia and I'm in charge of making you fit enough to be in Level two, we will have two weeks preparatory training before you finally start your lesson with your mates, first I have to know what you're good at, your basics, and your weaknesses but I can't without you having a training mate, this" she said gesturing over
SILENT THOUGHTS Episode 26
"Hi" I greeted taking my food next to Andy after taking my share in the cafeteria, one upsetting thing was, she was completely ignoring me, she didn't mean to though, she was afraid she will be picked on because none of the level 2 students like me, they were upset they work their way to level two but I came from nowhere without any training whatsoever to join them, and they all promise to put me where I belong; though I don't know what that meant.I ate my food in silence afterward and when I was done, I felt I needed to use the restroom, I was on my way when I saw two boys beating Alfred in front of the male restroom while other students just passed by not minding the scene at all, I felt my rage boiling me up, my breathing become erratic as anger overwhelmed me, so I tired to calm myself and the next moment I send the waste bin flying at one of the guys face, before the other could react I gave him a punch in the face, they were too stunned to do anything,

"Congratulations" My new family shouted as they brought out the cake from the kitchen to the dining table."I'm so proud of you" Mrs Smith.My mom said ruffling my hair which I had dyed dirty yellow."That's all thanks to you."Dad" I said smiling and he returned the smile warmly, he was so proud of what I had become, even I wasn't his daughter. After having dinner with them and chatting with Ashley about her new school till she fell asleep, I left for my room, took out my old phone under a hidden box at the entrance which was covered with foot rug, it was a box imbedded in the floor, I dialled my mom's number and she picked at once, as if expecting my call, I told her about my progress and she was very happy with it, she congratulated me and wish me good luck, then I called my brother, sure that guy always had something to talk about, I didn't know how the time fly so fast, I had to sleep around 11.30
