Chapter 1
It was a really tiring day i thought to my self . I looked around me as i made my way back home from school ,
so called home it didn't feel like home anymore since that day.
I felt the wind brushing
past my skin sending a shiver down my whole body
I mentally slapped myself for forgetting my jacket at home today.
I ran on my way.
When i reached home i opened the door and entered closing the door behind me and walked towards the couch after taking off my shoes and putting them neatly in our shoe rack .
It was not until i dropped my bag near the couch i realized that It was really quit today .
I sighed.
My hand made their way to my ponytail and untied my hair letting them fall over my shoulder.
A weird feeling made its way to me i don't know why i feel like this
Its the same feeling i had that day when i left home.
i felt my throat getting dried up, I walked towards the refrigerator grabbed a water bottle, placed it on the kitchen counter took a glass and pored myself some water.
I placed my hands on my hips while taking slow sips from the glass.
It was a weird habit i got from my dad.
Thinking about him makes my heart ache .
I stopped drinking and threw the rest of the water into the sink feeling like I'm going to throw up. I started massaging the bridge of my nose as a pain started appearing in my head.
I grabbed my bag from side of the couch and made my way towards my room. I took slow steps and looked around the now dead looking home. sometimes I don't want to stay in this house all the memories now haunt me.
On my way i thought of checking on mom, she's usually crying her eyes out by the time i reach home but today she is awfully quiet I wonder why.
She might be sleeping , i guess.
When i reached my parents room , i stood near the door i still couldn't hear a thing, all kind of scary thoughts started to cloud my mind but i shake my head letting all the those thoughts fall down to the floor, as if they really did ,i wish that could happen in real
I took a deep breath and knocked the door to see if she was awake.my hands started to get sweaty.
Silence.
I knocked the door again and called
"Mom"
Silence.
I started to panic .
"Mom I'm coming in"
My heart was pounding really fast inside my chest making me want to cry out of pain.
I grabbed the doorknob feeling the cold metal under my skin and twist it hearing a click .
I pushed the door open slowly scanning the room to find the bed empty. I shifted my eye to my left only to see a horrible sight before me.
My mom was hanging thought a rope tied around her neck.
Suddenly it felt like i couldn't breathe.i started taking short but fast breath.
Something caught my eye. I looked behind her to the mirror .
The message was writing with a red lipstick . Seeing it made me angry and sad at the same time.
My eyes traveled back to my moms body traveling to her now lifeless eye.
I tried to move but it was like i was stuck i couldn't move .
"Ugh..m..om no please" i mumbled in my head.
I tried to call out for help but no words came out of my mouth.
I tired stretching my arms to reach her but it felt like she was moving further away.
I tried to call her again trying hard to shout ..
I blinked my eye open ,sat on my bed gasping for air.
And panting really hard i wiped my forehead that was now drenched with sweat.
I looked down my body see that not just my forehead but my whole body was drenched in sweat.
I sighed.
Then took a deep breath.
I looked around my small room observing my surroundings.
"Right.. I'm not in highschool anymore. This is not that old home"
I said to myself.
remembering that i moved out of my old house where i use to live with my parents
I looked through the window watching as the sun rays made its way to my room .
My eyes landed on the birds nest, i smiled to myself as i see the mother feeding her babies.
People usually say to me that i should've cleaned it before it laid eggs or else it will start to get noisy once the babies come out.
I ignores them i mean i dont mind them.
afterall they are the only thing that makes my room a little interesting.
My room was not too small.
there is a small bed near the window leaving a little space to my left enough for a desk and a little wardrobe of mine .
Opposite to my wardrobe there was a full length mirror.
I walked towards it to see my horribly messed up brown hair that looked worst than the birds nest.
My looked tired as hell even though i slept early last night may be it was because of that dream or should i say memory.
I then made my way towards the desk where my cellphone was , I picked it up and switched it on i didn't had any password in it, there wasn't anything special to see except few music.
I saw it was 7 am i still have time till i leave for work.
I know it weird for a 20 year old girl to leave for work instead of college but it is what it is.
I work at a playschool for kids which is a 20 min drive from where i stay .
I work there from 8am to 11am and then i do part time job at this cafe called ' a cup of joy ' which is 5 min away from the play school.
I like working at both the places it keeps me busy and away from my depressing thoughts.
And the people there are really nice to me they are like a family to me.
I stoped the train of my thoughts threw my phone on the bed making it bounce up and then down to the floor
"Shit"
I curse under my breath
" Please don't break "
What an idiot i am afcorse it will if you throw it like that . Sometimes i think god forgot to put some brain in head.
I picked it up slowly turning it with guilty face to see if anything broke.
But was glad to see that it was fine
I let out a breath of relief.
"Thank god"
This time is places it carefully on the desk and walked out of my room .
Opposite to my room was my bathroom. I opened to door , walked inside grabbed my toothbrush and started brushing my teeth.
When I'm done i hoped under the shower to take a quick bath , cleaned all the sweat off me
seriously why does the sweat get so stick that fast
its gross .
"Ew"
I took my body wash and rubbed it all over me ,washed my hair with shampoo .
I walked back to my room with a clean towel wrapped around me.
I opened my wardrobe and search for clothes to wear today, i settled on a high waist navy blue jeans and green beige Printed blouson top , with round neck and three quarter sleeve.
I don't really have many clothes i dont really go for shopping unless its really necessary .
Lara really get angry at me for that .
She is my childhood friend , my best friend actually. She never left my side , she is always there for me no matter what.
She is the only thing i look forward to .
And as if sensing that i am thinking of her my phone rang and saw it was her. A let out a little laugh and picked up the call.
" Hey Lara"
"Hey Ro , are you up..??"
" Who do you think is taking. My ass.. what kind of questions is that "
"Damn girl i didn't knew you ass could talk thats something new i learned about you today"
We both started laughing .
"I mean you dont really wake up this early . everything ok ?" She asked
"Yeah"
"Nightmare again??"
She knows me well, she can see right through me, even when we talking on phone. Sometime i wonder what if she is a witch.
That would be weird..
"Yup it seems like they will never leave "
"You need a break Ro ,take a day off or something we can do something fun "
"I will think about it "
"You always say that"
I look towards my phone to check the time
" Oh my god Lana I'm gonna be late talk to you later. Love you. Bye"
"Love you too . Take care I'll call you again later i have something i need to talk to you about. Text me when you're free"
"Ok ok. Bye bye"
"Bye"
I dressed up quickly and walked ..no no i ran to the kitchen pored some milk and cereal in a bowl and started eating like a hungry wolf. When finished i put it in the sink , grabbed my keys locked the door and ran towards my old car that belonged to my dad . I drove to play school .
When i reached i gave an apologetic look to mrs. Yagami.
She returned me a smile and said
"Its alright dear, young people need to more sleep "
I watched as parents kissed their kid goodbyes and promising them that they will come back to pick them up
I started doing my job ,took the crying kids to entertain and play with them watching them chase each other .
Sometimes they do things that makes me laugh my ass out.
The rest of the day went just fine.
Like always.
