Chapter 13: Running Through Time (Serina)

A/N: This chapter is based on my life and in Serina's role! Reminder: This chapter has NOTHING to do with Serina's backstory. I just want to tell you what i was in my elementary days in Serina's pov. And i'm gonna tell some of my love life here XD

Serina's POV

I was hated, hurt, bullied, and abused as a child. I hated it, yes. I felt like the world has turned their back on me. Everyone calls me a freak, a weirdo, a weakling, and brainless. I can accept it. Because that's me. My dad left me. I didn't even had any memories of him. My granddad said he was a jerk. He let mom take care of me all by herself. He let my mom suffer.

My grandmom used to tell me that my mom would always sell out her new phone or new shoes just to buy me milk and other things i needed. My mom works really hard for me and my family. My grandparents took care of me well as well as my uncle and aunt and my aunt's oldest daughter.

In Nursery days, i remember being really clumsy at school. Whenever i move, i always cause havoc. So i stayed still on my chair and not give a damn when i started in Grade 1. In Kinder, i was still clumsy. I'm not that smart but sometimes i get high grades. Not the highest but it was worth it. In Grade 1, i stayed quiet and unsocial. There was a bully. I couldn't fight him back because i was too scared that i could hurt him. I had few friends but i never really interacted with them.

In Grade 2, i stayed quiet again and stayed still. No one really bothered to talk to me and vice versa. I'm better off alone. I like being alone. But there were a few people that wre nice to me and decided to talk to me. In Grade 3, i had a best friend who is a transferee. She used to go to a private school. We always hang out during lunch and in every classes. And then... My graddad died because of ulcer. I couldn't get over it. He took care of me, even when i was bad to him. Sure i talked bad at him but i loved him. I always cried, knowing that he's not gonna be by my side anymore. No one will take me to school anymore...

In Grade 4, i never saw that best friend again. She moved to her previous school, but i still kept in touch with her. Grade 4 was really fun. I've made a lot of new best friends. It was full of laughs. But i still can't get over my grandfather's death and my best friend's disappearance. But i kept holding on. I never gave up on smiling and laughing. Also before i became a Grade 4 student, my mom went to Canada to work. We kept in touch with her until then.

In Grade 5, my grand mother, uncle, and cousin took care of me since then. They would always help me with my homeworks. I was 10 when i was in Grade 5. Eventually, my grades slowly dropped when i discovered technology and such. But my tests scores in some classes are still near the top. I made a few friends at Grade 5. Two guys even confessed their love to me. But i nicely rejected them. I have no time for love right now.

And finally in Grade 6, that was my happiest class as much as i can tell. Everything was full of laughs. I was friends with almost all of the kids in class. And then there's some girls who was i really best friends with. We always hang out during lunch. When we graduated they didn't cried, but i did. I knew i was going to Canada with my new dad. I'm never gonna see them again until 5 years passes. It hurts. It hurts so much. I finally did it. Yet it immediately disappeared. The feeling of achieving something you really dreamed of immediately disappeared.

Here in Canada, i transferred into a public school. The kids were funny and then... There's this girl. She made my heart beat fast. She always makes jokes and made all of us laugh. I was one of the 12 year old kids at the class. I think she was younger than me. But... I never approached her. Everything was new to me. It was hard to make friends. I made a few. But i really wanted to talk to her. But i just couldn't.

In the math class, 6 of us went to the library to study alone with a teacher. The boy sat across me and the girl that i always laid my eyes on decided to sit beside me. My heart was beating like crazy but i focused on studying. She was groaning the whole time because she didn't got the answer. The guy across us told her his guess. The formula he said was good. So i said, 'I get you.' and started thinking. The guy just smiled and nodded with a thumbs up. While the girl just looked at me curiously as i started working. The guy knew i was blushing because the girl was watching me work my butt off seeking the answer.

"Oh, nice thinking. I like that." She said. For the first time, i looked at her and she looks back at me. In the eyes, directly. It made my heart beat even more faster and that's when i realized... I like her, for the first time i felt a questionable feeling. So it was love. Let alone love, i used to say. It was my first time liking someone, especially a girl. Sure i had small crushes in guys when i was back at my own country but... They never made me blush. This girl was the first girl who made my heart beat so fast when i see her.

We were at the same group. Thankfully. Me and our group always worked together to solve some shitty problems. Me and her would always sit beside each other by coincidence. There was a really funny moment in that math class, our substitue teacher was so funny that i have to laugh silently with some other kids in my group. Some were laughing silently with me while some were curious why we were laughing. Then she asks quietly, 'Why are guys laughing?' i just continued laughing because it was too funny that she didn't noticed.

See? I'm a mix of a fool, hero, villain, and lover. Everyone has their own story to tell.
