The torturing sound of alarm interrupted my sleep, it always tampered my morning sleep - no matter how much I tucked my head inside my thick woolen blanket, the sounds still penetrated my blanket.

I switched off the alram and stretched my arms. It was 7:30, morning. My school starts at 9.

I could clearly hear the heavy footsteps of my fat mother.

"Vanessa.," she shouted. Meanwhile, I was rubbing my eyes.

I got up lazily from my bed and went to the bathroom. I brushed my teeth and took a long shower.

I opened my cupboard in a hasty manner. I searched for my school dress which was folded underneath my thick unusable blankets. My school dress was crinkled. Now, I had to search for clothes' iron which was hidden under my drawer.

I was already late - 8:25.

I quickly buttoned my plain white shirt, wore black ironed pleated skirt and slipped my cream white socks.

I hurriedly combed my hair and tied a neat ponytail. I applied a fresh stroke of nude-pink coloured lip balm and wore my black blazer (it was parching hot).

I examined my attire. My clothes were a bit loose fitting. My skirt was perfectly above the knee length.

"Vanessa.," she shouted.

I hunted for my casual wrist watch. I found it nowhere then.

The time was ticking like an atom bomb. I was getting gradually panicked with the ticking sound of clock.

Tick tock tick tock......

"Vanessa.," she screamed with an angered tone.

"Wait.," I frowned.

I finally found it in my blazer's pocket.

I stepped downstairs and my mom grasped my hand. I glanced at my wrist watch - it was 8:45.

"We are already late.," she pulled me.

I was given two apples and I ate none. I collected it on my bag.

It was the first day after summer vacation. So, the teachers were surely late.

"Bye, sweetie.," She gave a flying kiss to me from the window. I rolled my eyes in return.

I encountered Suzan who looked more healthier than before.

"Hey, fatass. Have you lost weight?," she asked in excitement.

"I am no longer fat, fatso.," I replied. Actually, she was still skinny, she merely gained some flesh on her cheeks which made her look more beautiful.

"Where's Andrew?," she questioned.

"Where's Charlie?," I questioned and the bell rang. The first period was hijacked by Chemistry teacher, Sir Orwell.

I darted upstairs to my class.

I encountered the smiling face of my Chemistry tuition teacher as I walked the corridor.

"Hey.," he said.

"Hi, Good morning.," I replied in a soft spoken manner.

He let me enter first.

I quickly sat at my last row and all were eyeing at me strangely. I squinched my eyebrows in excess confusion.

"Good morning, sir.," everyone stood up and so do I.

"Good morning, sit down.," he replied.

"So, I was teacher at section B. Sir Orwell has swapped the sections."

My bench partner, Veronica stood up and questioned,"Sir, what's your age?"

He smirked and answered, "I am twenty eight. I have completed my masters two years before and worked as an intern for almost two years."

"What's with his age?," I asked.

"He's a hot cookie.," she replied.

"Is that cookie delicious?"

"Errr... I have never tasted.," she whispered.

"Bitch.," I said.

She bit her lips and giggled a bit.

"Silence please.," he declared.

I turned straight and tried to focus on his lectures but my focus was a butterfly - flying in a dusty air and hazy sunshine, that butterfly would perch on the flower and suck the nectar slowly; she would enjoy every single ray of the sunlight parching on her. My focus is a butterfly.

    Caroline stuck to the shadows as she looked grimly at her scrying map. The red marker shone brighter the closer she got to her mark and for a moment she was tempted to send for the elder council. But the abundance of bad leads made the high priestess pause, and reconsider her position, loathing to rouse them from their beds on a chance that this time her locator had worked. Stepping nimbly through the brambles with a grace that belies her age, Caroline gave a sigh of relief as she exited the forest and gazed upon violet field. The gates to the pack pyres were open on the far end and she squinted her eyes in confusion, "They should be shut," She murmured and muttered " el gatus closeth" a simple spell to close doors, but nothing happened.
