The Silver Parallel. Chapter I. The silver parallel theory
chapter 1: The silver parallel theory.
"Time. Many people like to think of time in diffrent ways. Scientific. Poetic. Sometimes just a normal word with no meaning. But in reality no one can tell you what time is. They can give you a defenition but if were being honest that doesn't explain anything. How does it work? Why does it exist? So many theories and diffrent ways to think of yet its just a concept. It exists yet without real proof of how. Time is the only real thing in this world that everyone takes for granted. So look around this classroom. Look at your friends. Remember this place. Remember everything you have experienced here. Because. You'll never have the time to ever again. Isn't that right Eren?"
A middle aged man with a stubble of a beard,dirt brown eyes and shining blonde hair stands infront of a classroom. The students all on their final year. Tough non of them truly care about what is being said one student stands out from the rest. He leans against his fist and stares out to the birds flying through the sky shining with the setting sun's light. He is completely zoned out. Not focusing on the teacher calling him in the slightest.
"Eren!"
The teacher says in a deeper voice yelling at the distracted boy. He snaps out of it and stares forward swiftly.
"Y-Yes?"
He asks confused as to what was said.
"What do you think of time Eren. Since it seems to pass by so quickly for you?"
"I...umm..."
"As expected you truly never pay attention. All these years and nothing has changed. Anyway. This is where I bid farewell. Enjoy your weekend. Your future. Hope to NOT see any of you in my class next year. For the final time. Dismissed."
Eren stands up with the rest of the class and walks out on command. Before stepping out the door the teacher stops him
"Eren. A moment?"
"Y-Yes sir?"
"Your grades have suprised me. Though this means nothing. I still need a career plan you never gave me or you won't be getting your final exam grade what so ever. Is that clear?"
"Yes sir. I'll be able to on monday."
Eren responds with the same answer he always has. Though it seems like another day its acctually the last day of school he'll have. It seems everyday has been falling into the same loop everytime again and again.
"Not to burst your zone out bubble but school is out on monday. I expect it on sunday in the school office when the the first years come in to get their books for next year. I'll be in my office."
"Oh umm. Yes sir."
(Same old story to be honest. I don't even care what I become when I leave school. As long as I get out of here I'll be happy.)
With a swift walk Eren leaves the classroom. Walking through the now technically empty halls he gets lost in thought again.
(Time...What a weird speech. Just a concept. Honestly when I think of time I think of some sci-fi bull crap. My future seems like even more crap. Where the hell am I supposed to go. Not like dad cares at all. Not to mention I don't have any cash to go anywhere. The best I can do is rookie teacher. End up in this shit hole again in the same low pay failure all these middle aged idiots call their jobs.)
He trails off into a rant in his own head which he tends to do often. Though whilst not payinga attention he bumps into a girl. Her blonde hair technically flies through the air. Her books land on the floor and she falls down right next to them on her back. She's rather small. Eren breaks out of thought as he see's this girl on the floor.
"I-Im sorry I didn't..."
As he speaks he stops. The girl sits on the floor. Her blue eyes glaring in the sun. Hs seems unfased.
"Its fine."
She says in a low pitched yet elegeant voice and starts to picm up her books. Eren feeling like a total ass flails around and tries to help whilst saying sorry again and again.
"Im sorry I was zoning out and didn't see anyone infront of me Im so sorry-"
The girl cuts him iff mid sentence.
"Its alright. I should have been paying attention aswell. I should be saying sorry."
Her voice not even changing at all. Even her expression on her face stays the same.
"Are you sure?"
Eren asks feeling guilty.
"I am sure."
The girl replies looking him directlly in the eyes as she stands up. Eren blushes for no real reason. The girl looks at his hands and Eren realises then that he still has one of her books that he picked up. Its labelled 'Ella's poem book.' He gives it to her and thinks about asking her if she likes poems. But he doesn't have the courage to even muster up a simple goodbye. She takes the book. Bows down and continues to walk past him. He look back as she walks throigh the halls. Her shoes clicking with every step. Making echoes fly through the school. Its then when Eren realises his friend is waiting for him outside.
"Ah crap!"
He swiftly runs through the halls and then out the front gate. Sitting on a bench is a red head girl. Her green eyes blank. She has a bag on her...
