"Mercy is not given to those kindly, it has to be earn from the person who wants it."

I blinked at the blinding ray of sunlight streaming in through the windows. Just my luck that it happened to land on my eyes and nowhere else; like it wanted to blind me. I groaned and threw the blanket off my body and flicked the curtains shut. I ran back to my bed for at least 20 minutes more to sleep but just my luck, my alarm went off.
"Ugh!" I groaned
I threw the blanket off and reached out to stop the alarm. My body shivered, trying to get use to the coldness of the morning.
"Connie," My Dad's alarming voice went through the door, he sound happier this morning, "I know you heard that alarm."
"Yes," I pushed the cold out of my eye then ran a hand through my curly hair, "I'll be down soon."
"Good morning to you too." He said, his footsteps walked away from the door causing me to let out a breath of relief.
I walked over to my mirror, my body refusing to take each step. My arms tingled with excitement while my legs gave out on me slowly.
I could hear footsteps coming up the stairs towards my room, "Connie." Dad warned through my door
"I'm coming!" I barked back, I walked into the bathroom and quickly did my morning routine before heading downstairs.
"Good to see you Sleeping Beauty." Dad said, he gave me a smirk as I grabbed some pancakes, "How'd you sleep?"
"Great." I sat at the island and ate my pancakes, Dad was at the table with his laptop at hand.
"Today is your first day at this new school, please don't tell me you're going to act like that the whole time." He said
"I am not here for some stupid high school, you know exactly why we're here." I placed my unfinished pancakes in the fridge before grabbing my bag and leaving.
"See you this afternoon." He screamed behind me. As soon as I made it to my car, I took a deep breath.
"I know exactly what I'm here for." I whispered
