Chapter 1:The Beginning
Beep beep beep. I turned over and yanked the blanket over my head, trying to ignore my alarm clock. I know I should get up and get ready, but I'm still tired from the events that occurred last night. I work at a store just down the street from my house. For some weird reason, my co-workers two of them did a no call, no show, and I was left with the work both of them were in charge of. Well, me and the store manager. I'm pretty sure they're both going to be fired. Beep beep beep. ugh, I'm up, I'm up now. I hit the button on my alarm clock a bit harder than I needed to. Ow, that hurt.
Now to find something to wear. What is a good first day back to high school outfit? I stared at my closet, filled with the new clothes my mom just brought me. Hmm, nothing too nice, but nothing too comfortable. I pulled two outfits out, one was a long-sleeved ebony fit crop top, with rhinestones around the neck, and wrist of the shirt, white high waist skinny jeans, a white jean jacket, and ebony suede ankle boots to finish it off. The other a rosy turtleneck, dark blue high waist jeans, a matching jacket, and rosy knee-high boots. I decided to go with the dark blue outfit, only because I don’t want to wear white to school. That would be me asking to get dirty.
I grabbed my clothes and walked into my bathroom. I and my mom had a bathroom in our rooms. Which, left my sisters sharing the bathroom that was downstairs. Prylia hated it since, her room was next door to the basement and she had to walk through the kitchen, to get to the bathroom. I put on my shower cap and turned the shower knob to hot and let the water run down my face trying not to think about anything. Once, I got out I quickly dressed and stared in the mirror checking my edges, and lip gloss. My hair is dark blue and straight. Didn't need to do anything to it since I got it straightened two days before.
“Prayer!” mom called from downstairs. “Coming!” I picked up my backpack, and purse and ran downstairs. When I made it to the kitchen mom was handing out plates to my younger siblings. Pryer, and Prylia ages 14, and 14. Yes, their twins. Thank. god, I”m not a twin they always cry about not having the same colored clothes. Mom always gets them the same outfits but different colors. She’s convinced they try to trick their teachers and switch classes. Ever since she found Pryer’s music notes in Prylia’s room. The dumbest mistake my sisters ever made, because everyone in our family knows Pryer’s the musician, and Prylia’s the science geek.
What I don’t understand is why they would switch classes to a class they don’t have any interest in. Well, they will tell me when they get a chance even though they're a bit younger than me. I and my sisters share a close bond. We tell each other the littlest things like, “OMG I got an A+ on the test in Mr. Reo’s class.” Well, we used to, Now it’s like they both shut me out. It was just my mom, me, and the twins at the table since dad was away on a business trip.
I washed the dishes and cleaned the table. As I was singing along to a song that was playing loudly through my headphones, I felt a slight tap on my shoulder, I turned and looked at my two sisters. Prylia held out a box that was a rectangular shape. “Sorry, it’s late,” she said, “but I wanted it to be real.” I was still shocked even though I didn’t see the gift yet. She put it in my hands, “open it.” I opened the box it was a really beautiful crystal ball necklace with tiny stars around it. It looked like something a singer or actress would wear.
I was so shocked I stuttered the words thank you. Both of my sisters frowned. “ you don’t like it.?” Prylia asked. I nearly screamed. “Are you kidding me, I LOVE It!” Thank you.” I hugged both of them. Pryer, said “ wait that’s not from me” she pulled something from her backpack and handed it to me. “This one is from me” her box was a square shape. “Open it. I have to see what your reaction is to this.” I opened it. My face must have been hard to read again, cause they both frowned again. I laughed so hard they started to look angry. I believe both of your faces are more shocking than mines.
“Pryer, I LOVE It!, but I couldn’t say that because of the looks on your faces. Haha.” then they both laughed with me. Pryer’s gift was a matching bracelet it had the same crystal ball and tiny stars around it. They helped me put them on. Prylia put her
gift around my neck, while Pryer put her’s, around my wrist. “So are you both ready to go.?” “yup?”
“Okay. let’s go.” “Wait, wait! So… nobody can say goodbye to me before they leave.?” mom said “ sorry.” I said. We...
