I was thinking of ways to kill myself...or at least ways to get myself sick so that I won't have to go to school today. Google wasn't offering much and YouTube had given me a few ideas like licking door knobs and maybe the toilet seat because germs seem to take solace in such places, with fruitful results . One thing for certain is that there's literally no way I was going to bend down to lick any toilet seat. I'm not that desperate.Actually, I kind of was.The impending anxiety attack I was about to suffer made me feel all nauseous , stomach churning violently in dire need of some bathroom relief in the form of explosive diarrhea. My heart rate increasing exponentially aggravating the already worsening stomach ache. And I tossed and turned in bed like a chicken rotisserie , occasionally stealing fearful glances at my alarm clock as it draws nearer and nearer to the time of my waking. I really dreaded my morning alarms, dodged them three times before reluctantly heeding to its dema
They say too much of something is annoying, well, I found that out myself when I decided to crawl out of bed after three hours of non stop interaction with it. I never thought I could hate my bed given its comforting nature and tranquility but here we are. Unmade, with food scraps dusted all over it, I detested it for the first time in years. Turns out, having a sick day isn't as glorious as they make it out to be. I trudged down the stairs and into the kitchen, my tired eyes spotting a yellow sticky note plastered on the refrigerator door , mom's handwriting adorned over it;Remember to reheat the chicken noodle soup, don't eat it cold!Incase of emergency, call me. Love, Mom. True to the letter, the soup sat idly by inside the microwave with another note stuck to the soup bowl, reminding me yet again to reheat the soup. I mentally rolled my eyes at how overbearing mom can be. Ripping it off, I crumpled it into a tiny ball before tossing it into the trash and proceeded to preheat t
"Lay down and let me take care of you," Surprisingly enough, just hearing her say those words to me was like music to my young , adolescent ears, its ring swimming inside my neurons, down my spine in a cold shiver before encircling my heart to pump unwanted blood between my boy parts, if you know what I mean. She became this sexy nurse as she led me to my bed, gently laid me down, securing a pillow under my head before seating right beside me, her warmth staining through my sheets and over to my garments before clinging there, like clingy ex girlfriend. Her scent was like this haunting cloud encapsulating us in a welcomed embrace , sliding into my nostrils , bathing my sinuses with its alluring effect and I wanted to dive my nose into the crook of her neck and drink in the scent of her perfume. Unlike Roxie's cheap perfume, Amanda's was intoxicatingly good as I got drunk in its effects. Probably that Victoria Secret perfume I saw on her nightstand whilst 'accidentally' spying on he
"Hey Abigael, did you gain weight?'Cause those jeans make your ass look fatter than Nicki Minaj's," That statement ushered in a wave of laughter that rippled through the sea of students in my Calculus class.The aforementioned girl pulls the hem of her knitted grey sweater down her torso in an attempt hide her overly exaggeratingly huge butt to no avail,which only seemed to fuel the laughter of the ruthless crowd. With flared cheeks and a sharp glare, Abigael sags down to her seat before burying her face inside a Math book. "Gosh, you are such an asshole,"Not everyone was flattered with my idea of a joke as Hazel's glare pierced me like cupid's arrow as she reprimanded me for that insensitive comment aimed at Abigael's behind. "What, her butt is gigantic!" Another storm of laughter tore through the class like a tornado which abruptly subsided once the classroom doors burst open. The smirk that had decorated my face slowly dissipated as my gaze followed the graceful aura of Mrs.Daw
"Next!" The lunch line swiftly moved as lunch lady Doris slapped her spatula full of overcooked pasta on our lunch trays.Her bored expression and blank eyes revealed her lack of motivation on being stuck on a crappy , dead end job like this. Serving hundreds of students everyday was one of those nightmare you wish to never experience and my pity towards lunch lady Doris was greatly influenced when she slapped the soggy noodles on to my tray, some splashing on to my shirt. The mole sprouted on her left cheek made me shudder as I walked over to the ketchup dispenser over by the far end of the cafeteria. Zac, my best friend, trailed behind me before setting his tray down next to mine as I pumped some ketchup inside a white tiny cup. "I can't believe you asked my mom that insensitive question ,"He scolded me , watching as I filled the tiny cup with the thick red liquid."She's my mother for pete sake!" "Like I didn't know that already,"Setting the tiny cup inside my tray, I moved asid
"You're thrity minutes late,"Was the scalding statement that greeted once my school-exhausted body strolled inside the classroom for my after school detention. "My apologies,"I gave her my best fake regal head bow , my voice intoned with heavy sarcasm and indifference. "I might decide to keep you here till seven p.m,"Her arms crossed over her chest as she regarded me with displeasure. Seeing her winter skied eyes morph into the darkest of the darkest shades of blue , a glaring evidence of her unspoken wrath , I knew I'd gotten under her skin, just as I had prophesized. "If it makes you happy, I will stay until eight or even eleven p.m , I mean, it's not like I have anything better to do at home anyway," A satisfied sigh pushed past my lips once I saw Amanda clench her fists into tight balls.Her anger was my reward. A bulging vein cut through her forehead, depicting the volatile anger bubbling under her skin my bothersome personality wrecking havoc inside her inner peace. I tri
"Is this underwear clean?'My older sister, Roxie, bent down o pick up a stray Calvin Klein underwear that sat atop of my desk next to my bottle of lotion before lifting it to her nose for a sniff. "EW!" A horrified shriek escaped her voice box , tossing the piece of garment as far from her as possible, watching as it landed on my bed frame and proceeded to vigorously wipe her hand with the wet wipes that she tore open from my desk. My shoulders shuddering violently with each breathless giggle that arose from my reaction , my stomach muscles contracting painfully at my uncontrollable laugh. "You're disgusting!""I'm a boy," I defended in between laughs, reaching over for said underwear and bringing it up to my nose for a smell inspection. The unmistakable whiff of ball sweat made my eyes watery. Still, I negotiated on the possibility of me wearing them tomorrow before washing them. "They're still wearable," I shrugged, scrunching the dirty underwear before skillfully tossing it
A heated argument tore between last night's dinner meal and thi morning's 'scrumptuous' pancake from inside my stomach as it mourned loudly, both meals fighting for their place in there yet failing. I was certain that I'd be visiting the nurse's office today , maybe then I'd get a pass from attending Mr.Latowskie's biology lecture on Genetics. "I'm very disappointed in you after receiving that phonecall from Amanda yesterday concerning your behavior , Young man," I had momentarily forgotten the supposed 'talk' I was having with my dad as he so generously drove me to school.I had heard that very same talk with him on countless issues he had with me because of our disagreeing opinions. We never saw eye to eye on anything .It was our dynamic. His thoughts differred from mine and that always seeemed to bring us in a disagreeable mood. This morning, he lectured me on how I was to treat Amanda ,how I should behave around her, and all those words uttered by him were drowned out the wind th
