Next day at school, I met Kairi but she ignored me. She did not even return my wave. I went to class dragging my feet, hesitating about my day now that I had even lost my best friend. "Look who it is, Anathi the whore!"My bully Carly began to say. "Tsk! Hi w that little whore business of ours going? Made enough for your college?"She smiled in glee as her posse roared out in laughter. I had had enough. I was tired, tired of her, very tired of being bullied. I bound my hands into fists, I was ready to attack her and rip her hair out. "Shut the hell up!"They all circled me. Laughing. "Oh look, the little whore wanna start a fight with us!"Carly's friend began to say as she slapped one hand in the other. They all began to cheer as they started up a mock fight.``Shut the hell up!

Chapter FifteenThe sun's rays lit up my room through splinters in my curtains at dawn and I found my self awake, awake with a heart too heavy to bear the burdens brought forth by yesterday's troubles.  I lay staring at the ceiling and ruminating on what was to become of my young life. My father wanted me to go hide out in Egypt, to commence my life as a slave under the supreme pharoahnic rule as there was no hope and  no abundance for Atlantis citizens like I in that land of the living deities. I was scared. I was afraid of the unknown.  It was in that moment I gained a whim of courage ruminating on how I was going to face my problems that something suddenly happened. My sister knocked on my door, as if she knew I needed her in this bleak moment. "Come in. I uttered."Wakey wakey, aren't you going to school today Anathi?"",School? I asked her.
