❤️19❤️
Honestly, I felt like slapping everyone that loudly whispered something bad about me as I walked by. They all acted as if they had never EVER done anything bad in their life. And I of course hadn't done anything but who would believe that except for Miss Wills and Liv? My plan in ignoring them kind of worked but the problem was that, I just couldn't go for break. Nobody wanted me so what was the use? My life was a living hell right now.
I stood at my locker, going through my phone for anything interesting that could take my mind off things but nothing helped. Nothing was funny anymore because I had no one to laugh with and it sucked. I took out my earphones from my special box where I usually kept things I knew I would need, and walked across the hallway searching for a perfect song to take away my sorrow. Almost everybody was at break and I was the only one, walking about the hallway. How nice.
Within a few minutes I found myself in the school's music studio. All instruments and I mean all instruments from the drums to the flute were there. A smile danced on my lips. This would Intertain me till the bell rang. I made my way to the piano and sat down, wondering what song I could play. I plugged my earphones on and scrolled my screen down to When The Party's Over by Billie Ellish and tried playing it on the piano. It was my first try but it came out perfectly and soon enough I was singing and playing without a care in the world. I was enjoying the moment so much I ended up taking a video and I was smiling like everything was okay. Music always took away my worries and would fly me to another universe where I was just free.
Sadly the moment had to end as the bell rang. I quickly stopped the music and stood up. I ran my fingers on the grand tiles of the piano and smiled.
"I'll be back soon," I whispered thinking about lunch.
I quickly went out of the room and walked to my locker with my earphones on but no music playing.
It's what I usually did.
"Oh Raven!" came a voice.
I turned to find Brittany sashaying to me with her head high. Ugh. I really wanted to kick her off her high horse. I would bring her back to earth. To the bottom of the earth where she would learn how to be humble. How to swallow pride and…and ugh!
I eyed her suspiciously before walking away, much more faster than before. If she still wanted to talk to me, she'd better run cause I wasn't waiting for her.
I finally got to my locker and Britt was nowhere to be found. Such a shame, I really wanted to see her face after following me.
I took out my book and got to class.
The last class I had today was Geography but it was replaced with drama class. One of the classes I hated the most.
For lunch, I had gone back to the studio and started off from where I ended in Billie Eilish's song. I loved it.
Now I was stuck with quarter of the school, including Britt and Jason. I was bored out of my wits as Mrs Mortez explained to us what drama class meant to the universe. It was like some sort of boring speech of a new kid in school trying to talk about themselves. You might consider me weird but I hate this class, I hate it more than the jockey's that have been forced to attend it instead of basketball practice.
"So today, we are going to put up a romantic act."
Probably Romeo and Juliet
"This act is about a girl that is misunderstood but yet she tries to help everyone in having a happy ever after. And the rest we will create as we move on," she said waving her hand in the air.
"Now, we need a volunteer. Someone who is going to be the main female character…"
"Mrs Mortez," Britt interrupted. "Im sure you know I'm the right person for this,"
"Now now, Miss Roberts. I will choose myself. As I was saying, this act is going to be done before the musical…"
"As you all know,"she continued, "The musical is going to be held in an amphitheater, and some schools will be joining. Not to perform but to watch. Only Lincoln High is going to be performing. So now… for our female main actor, I think Miss Smith is perfect…"
Oh no. No no no no. Why!
"Uhm… I"
"That is finalized then, and of course, Jason you will be the main male character."
I groaned silently and covered my face with my hair. Being in this act was already had enough now, doing it with Jason? Ugh.
She continued choosing people and Britt was given a less enticing position which made her glare at me. What had I done? After that she gave us words to recite and expected us to know them by heart on Monday.
The bell rang, and everybody rushed out of schoolschool. The weekend was finally here and I was happy. I left soon after half of the school had gone. I stood at the bus stop, waiting for the bus to arrive. It wasn't long till it did and when I got in and paid my fare, the bus driver smiled sweetly at me. I smiled back. She was a chocolate black woman with a rose tattoo on her hand. And I felt like she was always a smiling woman.
I quickly got to a free seat and sighed as I sat down.
It was a rough week but I coped. I was now getting used to the names I was being called, I even felt like I deserved being called that. I was doubting myself, feeling like I really had done such and I never realised it.
