Never There

Story idea is by my friend, but I wrote this story

I never knew her name, and she never knew mine. I remember it was something like Suzi or Rozi… but I don't know which one. Some people call her Suzi, some people call her Rozi. It's just so confusing, like life.

No one really pays attention to me. I don't have any friends, not even the teachers remember me. They never call on me during class, they never give my report card, and they never give me detention. I feel like the world just forgot me.

Not even my parents pay attention to me. Every time my mom makes dinner, she just sets up two plates. One for my father and one for herself. I never really feel hungry… I wonder if I have some kind of disease…

It was one day after school, and I was walking home. The streets were empty as usual, since no one really lives on this part of the neighborhood. The walk home was always quiet and nothing's usually happening.

I heard footsteps. Soft and faint footsteps. I lifted my gaze from the ground and looked in front of me. There she was, walking silently and looking ahead. She never once looked at me, but she got nearer and nearer. I felt my heart beating under my chest, and my stomach felt as if a thousand butterflies are floating in it.

Suddenly, I heard someone shout. "Hey Suzi!" I turned around and saw a girl similar to the girl in front of me. She ran up to the girl in the front, completely ignoring me. I didn't care at that time, for I was too confused by the sudden look-a-like in front of me.

I felt dizzy, my visions started to go white, as I felt myself collapse onto the floor.

Suzi's POV

I was walking home after school one day and I wasn't paying attention to where I was going. I was thinking about the big project coming up in Science class, and I didn't realize that I was going the wrong way.

It was until when my twin sister, Rozi, ran up to me and told me. I felt stupid, it wasn't like me to wander off into nowhere. I looked around and found that I had wandered to the deserted part of the neighborhood.

Nobody lives there, except an mid-aged couple, whose son died a few years back in a car crash. It was creepy.

Rozi and I chatted for a long time, and we finally decided to head for home the other way.

End of Suzi's POV

I woke up and found that I was lying on the street where I was left fainted. I saw two girls that looked alike talking in front of me.

I was confused. These two looked so similar, maybe their twins… Then it finally dawned to me that they were twins, and that one of them was Rozi and one of them was Suzi. I also realized that I had been giving gifts to two people. Funny me.

Then I noticed the two girls started to walk towards me. I smiled, thinking that they finally acknowledged me and decided to help out. They got nearer and nearer, but they weren't looking at me. Suddenly, I knew what was going on.

They were going to step on me! I tried to cry out for help, but then… they stepped right through me! They literally stepped through me.

I looked at my hands, they were see-through. I'm a ghost. A spirit, a non-living creature. Now I knew why nobody even pays attention to me.

My parents were the mid-aged couple, and their son who died was me. I was living a normal life… as a ghost. I was never there.

I sat there, thinking. What am I going to do now? Do I go home? Or do I continue living a normal life as a ghost? I don't know.

I just sat there… for who cares how long… I just sat there… I was never, ever here…

This story is just randomness (it's kinda weird in my opinion)
