Chapter 1 / / It's hard
“Phoebe Thorn!” shouted mom. I groan. I didn’t want to go to school.
“But mom!” I groan. “Just get ready! Leora is waiting!” she yelled. I got up from bed, but only for Leora. I decided on a checkered hoodie, some short jeans, and some white tennis shoes.
I quickly rush down with my backpack, not even both straps on my shoulders, and grabbed a piece of bread. I then said a muffled ‘Goodbye!’
I catch Leora at the bus, and just in time. We get on the bus in silence, and as we sit Leora breaks the dreaded silence. “So, you got a crush?” she asks teasingly. Heat rises to my cheeks as I stutter “N-N-No!“.
The rest of the way was complete, utter, boring, silence.
Once we got to school, we parted ways.
I had Spanish. And I, HATED, Spanish class.
“Hola señor Adams" I said sarcastically as I sat. "Hola Phoebe!". Yes, I was a teacher's pet. I keep up an act at school, but it causes me trouble. Such as Dezzy, a bully at school.
Just then Melissa came by. She was a popular girl, but not like some cliche popular girl bully.
"Hi." She said. I laugh sheepishly, keeping up my act. Well, it's not really an act. I don't even know...making out. "Hi. Aren't you like popular? I'm a nerd. A teacher's pet." I say.
...
"It's hard" she says
