WEIRD

TESS'S POV:

"A schoolgirl's life is extremely boring." I thought, totally fed up with the same old routine. Nothing ever seemed to change, and it was driving me nuts.

I sighed, glancing at the book I had pulled out for homework. I looked at my messy desk, covered in books, notes, and stuff.

"I need a change in my life." My eyes sparkled at the thought, a hint of determination rising along with the passing second.

"Something strange and daring that will add excitement and fun to my life," I said to myself, grinning as I dreamed of different scenarios, such as a zombie apocalypse or black magic and other things.

But all those thoughts fell apart as the stark truth hit me.

"As if it were possible." I exhaled slowly, disappointed that these adventures were not the reality I wanted to experience. It was just in my head.

I stared at the book blankly; the pages were black and white, just like my life. No color, no vibrance.

I shook my head, grabbing a book from the corner. "It's time for some hard work, Tess, not a tour of my imagination."

I took a moment to stretch out my arms and neck before diving into the book, ready for a bit of a knowledge adventure.

After a while, I finished my homework and packed my bags.

I yawned, heading to bed as I crawled under the covers. My body relaxed under the soft mattress as I lay there, silent in the darkness. I found myself thinking about all the cool and exciting things that could spice up my life.

With a small, hopeful smile, I whispered to myself, "I hope that something weird happens in my life."
