Chapter 3;first day of stress๐ฅnd not school๐ฉโ๐ซ
"My first day at school was stressful ๐ฉ. Nobody wanted to help me with seating arrangements except the lecturer, who paired me with a quiet girl who looked a bit odd ๐. I thought, 'Great, I'm stuck with a weirdo on my first day ๐คฆโโ๏ธ. People might think I'm one too ๐.'
Meanwhile, my crush was sitting there, staring at his book, ignoring me completely ๐. I tried to borrow a book from him, but he looked at me like I was trash ๐ฎ and went back to reading ๐. Everyone in class seemed scared of him ๐ณ, and I couldn't understand why ๐ค. He seemed tough ๐ช, but every girl in school seemed to have a crush on him ๐. I'd see girls walking by his desk, giving him flirty glances ๐. It was like he was a magnet, and they were helpless ๐. I felt confused - was love evil or just blind๐จโ๐ฆฏ As I sat beside my awkward desk mate, I couldn't help but steal glances at my crush. He was still engrossed in his book, oblivious to the admiring gazes around him. I felt a pang of frustration - why did he have to be so aloof? ๐ค
The lecturer continued to drone on, discussing the syllabus and expectations for the semester. I zoned out, my mind wandering to all the possible reasons why he might be ignoring me. Was I not interesting enough? Not pretty enough? ๐
Suddenly, the bell rang, signaling the end of the class. My crush stood up, towering over everyone else in the room. He gathered his things and walked out without a word, leaving a trail of admiring glances in his wake. ๐โโ๏ธ
I turned to my desk mate, who was quietly packing her things. "Hey, I'm Emily," I said, trying to break the ice. She looked up, slightly startled, and smiled weakly. Am Sarah .
"As we walked to the bus stop, I asked Sarah if she was taking the same bus as me ๐. She agreed, and we chatted while waiting. But, being the clumsy me ๐คฆโโ๏ธ, I dropped my books ๐. As I bent to pick them up, I bumped into my crush ๐คฏ. Our eyes met, and I felt like the world had come to a standstill ๐. I couldn't understand why I felt this strong connection with someone I'd just met ๐ค. Was it love at first sight? ๐
But reality snapped me back to attention โ ๏ธ. I remembered I forgot to watch my dad's favorite show ๐บ, and I knew I'd face his wrath ๐ . He'd be drunk by now, and I'd be in for a lecture about neglecting his needs ๐. I snapped out of my daydream and apologized to my crush, who gave me that same disinterested look ๐. Thankfully, Sarah came to my rescue, holding my hand and pulling me toward the bus. Finally i arrived at the bus stop waved Sarah good buy and continued my journey ๐ก home on reaching my front door ๐ช i took a deep breath then opened ๐ the door ๐ช i looked at the living room nd i spotted my ๐จ dad.
"As I walked in, I saw my dad sitting in his favorite chair, overly drunk ๐ด. But this time, he wasn't laughing or talking; he was eerily quiet ๐. I approached him cautiously and said, 'Hi, Dad, I'm back from school.' He turned to me with a scowl and slurred, 'Am I blind? Don't I know you left for school and came back? Or do you think I'm drunk? ๐คทโโ๏ธ'
I knew better than to respond, so I kept quiet ๐ โโ๏ธ. I tried to slip away to my room, hoping he'd let the matter of the show drop. But he called out, 'What happened in the show?' I hesitated before saying, 'I'm sorry, I forgot.' His expression turned uglier ๐ค.
'You know I'm always busy,' he slurred. 'I'm never around, and I ask you to watch this one show ๐บ. But you're too stupid to remember ๐คฆโโ๏ธ. You're just like your mother โ stubborn and selfish ๐ค. If she hadn't had that severe headache, she wouldn't have gotten into an asthma attack, and she wouldn't have died ๐คทโโ๏ธ. Now you're following in her footsteps โ stubborn and unhelpful ๐ซ.'
I felt a lump form in my throat as he continued to berate me ๐. I knew I had to listen and apologize, even if it wasn't entirely my fault ๐.
I wanted to say, "Why are you always so hard on me, Dad? Can't you just understand me for once?" ๐คทโโ๏ธ But I knew better than to speak up. Instead, I nodded and said, "I'm sorry, Dad. It won't happen again ๐."so i went to my room flong my self ๐ on the bed nd breathed out today has really been a heck of a day๐
