The Statue
Everything is the same. From the walls of this room to grounds of the school and city of timid citizens. The neighbors constantly converse loudly on the other side.
There's this statue of a family in the middle of the city. It consists of a mother, father, and their daughter and son around ten years old or younger. This creepy crap of a statue can be seen in all angles. From a teenage girl's apartment, it faces sideways. She find it as a rather a good thing so she doesn't have to deal with it.
While the girl, Mara Marrow, enjoy her cup of coffee and peanut butter and jelly sandwich, her new neighbors finally moved in. Although they aren't much of a hassle to her, she much prefers to avoid conversing with them. As she takes a sip of her coffee, a series of knocks startles her. She decides to leave it alone.
Series of knocks continue every 30 seconds with 10-second intervals until it stops exactly four minutes later. She can hear the footsteps getting quieter. She finds that much better.
It's the next day and Mara feels drowsy. She hates going outside but her stupid parents forced her to come to this school. But, as long as she gets something out of it, in which she never specifically mentioned what, she abides by their orders.
Everyone walks in groups except Mara. Her experiences with people led her to avoid social interactions so she never had friends since she moved. Her parents are deep into the business community and barely has time to even text their daughter.
While walking down the stairs, her male neighbor, Charon Balcom, greets her with a bright smile. Mara ignores him as she tiredly continues on her way.
"Young lady, why don't you join us for dinner tonight?"
Charon invites Mara who stops at her tracks and flips him off. This saddens the man as he goes back to his family.
While walking down the road, children giggles invade the music in Mara's ears. She gets annoyed and enraged. She snarls as she looks behind, expecting the children to be there. She breathes calmly and walks on. Nearing the road, the giggling gets louder as the children hit Mara by her arm while running. The lady simply looks at them im disgust.
"I wish some cars would just hit this brat."
Then before her, a car swerves to the children's direction, hitting a pole. Unfortunately for Mara, no harm was done to the children other than fear. It was a little fortunate at least. She giggles to herself as she runs away from the scene.
At school while language class begins, she sighs in boredom. I stead of listening to the teacher, she draws the statue of the city on her notebook of the said subject. She hears a little girl's giggle...
