〰️〰️〰️〰️〰️The most annoying thing about bruises and bumps is that people laugh at you the more, making you know that you are uglier than before. That's the kind of attention I was getting in school this Friday morning. As you all remember I was hit on the face with a dodge ball, let me tell you that that ball is so fucking hard and I hate what my face had become. I have a big bump that is almost the size of a new born baby's fist and I have a band aid on my swollen nose. in other words I look really bad.I sigh and enter the first class we have today, that is my English class which I also have an assignment I have to submit on Romeo and Juliet today. I didn't spend too much time in the locker room this morning because of the constant glares I was getting " Good morning, as you enter please submit your folder for your assignment on the table " Mr Edwards says and I turn to look at him. I guess he has said that to every single person that came into the class." Good morning " I say s
" I will forget the fact that you almost made me deaf right now and accept your apologies since they are so sincere " he says I roll my eyes and mimick him under my breathe. he acts like he is almighty something but not that he is actually anything. I don't even understand what I just said." Just try not to be so clumsy on your way cupcake " he says and chuckles" I am not clumsy and my name is Raine " I say and then put my hand over my mouth. When I need you mouth you don't talk and when I want you to be silent, you run anyhow." Well your actions show that you are clumsy and I think I like cupcake more then Raine " he says Calm down RaineHe let you off the first time you raised your voice at him, don't think he will let you off this time if you try him again so just calm down and walk away Raine.Walk awayI turn away from him and the walk away towards the opposite direction.I hear him chuckle but I ignore him and continue walking away. I am already late to my class as it is,
Although the grocery store isn't that far from our house but I'm glad mum decided we should drive there because if she had said Raine we are going to walk to the grocery store to do some family bonding on the way, I seriously would have puked all over myself on the road because there is nothing to bond for.The few minutes we were suppose to spend at the grocery store turns into hours because after buying everything we came to buy at the store, mum saw a friend, I mean a fellow professor from work and they started chatting.They saw each other at the college yesterday and yet they still have a lot to talk about now. I really hate adults, some adults " Oh is that Raine ? " I suddenly hear the woman who is talking to mum say as she points towards innocent me." Yes mum show my ugly face to the world " I mutter under my breathe and give my widest fake smile." Yes that's Raine. " mum answers with a smile.As if it's not obvious that it's me, RaineMum and the woman walk towards me and t
" Why does your voice feel so down. had a bad fight with mum ? " he asks.Bam.. he knows" Somehow " I say " It's fine to argue with your mum sometimes but you shouldn't raise your voice at her " he says softly " I know " I say Dad always finds a way to make me guilty." Then it's settled " he says." Uhmm. you are not going to reprimand me or scold me ? " I ask." No. " he says." No ? " I ask" Why ? " I continue." Since you know you were wrong and that's all I need to hear " he says." Ohh " " Your mum loves you okay " he says.Yeah right.Even if she says that I would not believe it." I love you too honey " he says." I know " I answer " Good now have a nice weekend. I have to go now " he says " Bye " He had hung up already. that's all he was going to say ?. why call me then. he didn't even talk about his decision about not coming home this Christmas. Was it that insignificant ?. am I that unimportant ?I hate my life I groan and then bang my head on your pillow as I do
Sunday, let me just say is a very religious and spiritual day in our house. Mum although she does not have time for any other thing,she does have time for God. living in her roof means you go to church every sunday. But when I stay over at my grandma's place, I don't really go to church because Grandma believes that going to church doesn't mean you have faith in Christ. you might go to church a thousand times and still not know what to do in that church so she says our faith in God and our believe in God and that he exists lies in our hearts and that God can easily see them even if you don't go to a church like every other person. So I didn't go to church every Sunday when I over at Grandma's place,it's just when there is a special occasion.In the church we go to, virtually anything is allowed. you will see people with trousers and mini clothes but I hear in other places it's not allowed. I don't really dress much myself so I care less if people go naked or not. But mum makes sure sh
〰️〰️〰️〰️〰️NOAH FLYNN" Noah!! " " Noah we are going to be late for church " mum yells and he turns on the bed again putting the pillow on his head to block her voice." Noah! " " Fuck " he cusses out and gets up from the bed before making his way into the bathroom. He does not see the reason why or the need to go to church. " I heard that " mum yells again. He quickly washes up before putting clothes on in a hurry.There is usually nothing happening in church so why go every single Sunday." Hey " Noah says and pecks her cheek as he enters the kitchen. " Good morning to you too " mum says and smiles." Good morning spike " he says to Nick who was having breakfast. since his mouth was full, Nick just gives Noah a toothy grin instead and Noah sits at the dinner table." Cereal ? " mum asks him as she holds up a bowl" I'm hungry " he says and she drops the bowl of cereal on the table in front of him.. he eats his food in silence and after that they are ready to go to church. Thank
" That's a pretty good brain there nerd " he says " Don't you have other things to do ? " I ask him, getting irritated by his presence" Oh are you telling me to leave ? " he pouts jokingly" Maybe.. now that you understand then leave " I say " I like it when you're angry nerd " he says " Stop calling me nerd,it's Raine " I almost yell" I know it's Raine nerd but I like nerd better nerd " he keeps saying nerd again and again.I don't say a word but just stare at the wall." Nerd "" Nerd "" Nerd "" Go away Noah " I mutter " Why nerd ? " he asks smirkingI growl" Nerd " " Nerdddd " " What the hell is your problem " I say angrily staring at his face. His expression was so annoying. he still had that stupid smirk and his eyes held that of admiration." Oh fiesty nerd " he chuckles " I didn't know you had this side in you. tell me do you roar secretly too ? " he asks mockingly." Raine " I look away from Noah into the direction where my name was called." Who is this ? " mum a
" Why don't you talk much " he asks me" I don't really know. I guess because people don't actually want to talk to me " I say." I want to talk to you " he says and those words go deep in my heart. I blush and look away." Cam is a player " Noah's presence is announced with his stupid mouth. is he really a player, he doesn't look like it." And you, don't get all cozy with my slave " he says referring to meIs he calling me a slave again, what did I ever do to deserve this. it's not like I have been a very bad person in my last life. I'm sure I was so nice and kind but why then do they always pick on me" I'm not doing anything dude " Cam says and Noah smiles at him." Now today I think I want meatloaf and a can of coca cola " Noah says and looks at me " Where do I get meat loaf ? " I ask him " Well you better hurry before it finishes " he says and then points to where we take our foods. the line is such a long line, I can't believe that I will be waiting in line to get just one pl
RAINE I shut the front door with a bang as soon as I am in the house after school that day. " Raine is that you? " I heard mum's voice as she came down the staircase and then gasp in shock. " What are you doing here looking like that and why didn't you come home with Mr Benson earlier today? " she asks me but I don't give her replies or even acknowledge her presence. We weren't talking and she slapped me this morning. I wasn't going to act like I was fine when I wasn't fine. I sat down on the floor to take off my boots that are already soaking with water from the rain. " Is that what we are doing now Raine, I talk and you don't reply me. you ignore me " she says in anger " What do you want me to say mum. apologize for coming up drenched in cheese and the rain. apologize for not looking lady like or apologize for not asking you to travel like you want " I say sarcastically " Now that I think of it. I think I have a lot to apologize for mum. well then I'm sorry " I yell and then g
NOAH FLYNNI have never felt so bad in my entirely life before but seeing Raine cry yesterday because of what I did made me feel so guilty. that girl has been making me feel a lot of things since I met her. she is making me lose my cool and it isn't my style. I was at the school parking lot with Cameroon and jasper after Raine had gone home in the rain. " Man you shouldn't have dumped melted cheese all over her body " cam says and I give him a frown. " I didn't do it intentionally. it wasn't meant for her I'm telling you. instead of the teacher she just walked in on the trap by herself and what was I supposed to do. save her from melted cheese? " I scoff in disbelief" At least you could have made an attempt. she must have gone through hurt. " cam says " And why are you even getting angry in the first place cam. you know this girl because I introduced you to her and you are so concerned about her all of a sudden " I say " Well that doesn't matter. Raine is my friend now and I am n
" Oh my God. Raine just blushed, the only thing you have ever blushed at is when you see cats " Gen mutters and I eye her." I didn't blush and I do not like anyone " I say silencing them." And was that your number he collected at the end... he was so cute " Maya chirps again and I really want to slap her right at the back of her head" Yes he collected my number but it's no big deal. he is just a friend " I say" He is a friend already?.. but how come Noah isn't classified as a friend when cam is, that's not fair you know " Gen says with a pout" Noah is not my friend.can my friend boss me around and send me errands all the time?. You guys are my friends but you don't boss me around all the time do you " I frown " You are just so hard to cut into " Gen says with a frown and then drops the topic about Noah but I don't think they will drop the topic about cam. Why are they even bothered about Noah in the first place. He saved me yes, he is still currently saving me yes, but he is sti
" Raine " the sound of my name has me staring at the room, wondering why Cam was calling me and running towards me again, this moment is like one of those scenes in the movie where the guy the girl has liked all her life finally notices her and then kisses her on the lips but that can't happen in a million years because cam is a popular and I am just someone. He walks up to me now, my heart is beating in a way it shouldn't even be beating and I don't even know why. it's too odd for me to have feelings for cam right?. because he will get to see me in weird situations because of Noah. " Hey what's up ? " I ask him as soon as he stops in front of me." Can I get your number ? " he asks and I stare at him for seconds trying to understand what he just asked." My number ? " I ask with surpriseHe wants my number?. why does he want my number?. no one has asked for my number before. no one even has my number in this school except maya and Gen and it's also going to be in my student file bu
" So I accepted the offer yesterday night " I hear mum say to someone over the phone as I walk down the stairs the next day all prepared for school. She always did what I didn't want her to do. I am not so shocked hearing it because I knew she was going to accept the offer and be away from me. But what of me, will I stay here alone got weeks while she and dad explore the world. God I hate them " Good morning young lady " she says and then gets up from the couch" Good morning " I mutter and then walk outside the house and stand by the car tapping my fingers on the cat windows waiting for mum to come out.She unlocks the door as soon as she is outside and I open the door, buckle my seatbelt and then ignore her presence." So I took the job offer " she says sounding so happy" Yeah I heard you telling someone inside and I kind of already knew that you were going to take it anyways " I murmur and she frowns " What do you mean ? " she asks." That's how you act mum. you do things witho
" I was the one who initiated the fight, I punched Dean first. " he says again " What do you mean ? " the principal asks." Well when you actually caught us I'm sure you saw both Dean and I fighting and then Raine was at a far corner yelling for us to stop so she has nothing to do with it. " he explains and I don't do anything other than stare at his face. he looks so cool now just like he had looked on the day I first met him. he protected me and saved me then and now he is doing the same again " That's true. but she could have done something about the fight " she says." And risk being punched ?. no she couldn't have done a thing. Besides if she had come closer then I'm sure she would gave gotten hurt really bad again just like last week " Noah says " Fine I will not punish her today but if I see her in any of those places again where a fight breaks out, she will be in trouble " she says." You guys will fill out this forms and after then you can leave, I will think of what to do
I stand up from the floor and stare at Dean Elmer and Wesley standing few feets away from me, three of them holding looks of excitement. they haven't disturbed me in a long time so why are they here now." So did you miss us ? " Dean says and then walks close to me. he holds my chin up to stare into his cold black eyes and I look away from him before backing off against the locker at my back. " Don't tell me that you are still so fucking scared. " Elmer says with laughter." After the show you put up at the lunch room yesterday I thought you would be braver by now " Dean says.Oh that's what happened. now I understandJohanne just got revenge for yesterday." So I see you put your hair up in messy buns now. how about I cut it off for you " Dean says and then he pins in into your locker, holding me in place so I don't move sn inch. " Stop it " I say and frown" Wow it's nice to hear that the rumours are actually true.. the nerd doesn't stammer again, you have no fear again. you can n
" All of you will regret this day. " she yells and then leaves angrily. her puppets trailing after her like foot mats.Wow that was pretty intense and I liked it so much.. I spoke for the first time, I said my mind and it felt so nice. it felt really nice and I want to do it again. but again what if johanne actually does something really bad to us. " That felt so good didn't it Raine " Cam asks me with a smile and I smile back at him and nod my head.Yes it felt so nice to say your mind and have people who will back you up. 〰️〰️〰️〰️〰️" I am so fucking proud of you " Gen gushes out with happiness and hugs me tight. " Me too " Maya says and then squeezes into the hug, crushing us both in the process." You clearly told her to fuck off " Gen says grinning." That's too much, I didn't exactly tell her to fuck off. I just said one single thing actually. it's the guys that did the whole work " I say " Like I said, I just really like Noah and now I think I like his friends too, they are
" Why don't you talk much " he asks me" I don't really know. I guess because people don't actually want to talk to me " I say." I want to talk to you " he says and those words go deep in my heart. I blush and look away." Cam is a player " Noah's presence is announced with his stupid mouth. is he really a player, he doesn't look like it." And you, don't get all cozy with my slave " he says referring to meIs he calling me a slave again, what did I ever do to deserve this. it's not like I have been a very bad person in my last life. I'm sure I was so nice and kind but why then do they always pick on me" I'm not doing anything dude " Cam says and Noah smiles at him." Now today I think I want meatloaf and a can of coca cola " Noah says and looks at me " Where do I get meat loaf ?
