The reality was truly frightening
I realised examining the ground for anything I could possibly trip on. Having most of the city's men leaving to fight in this war? If father hadn't passed a few years ago, may have my father been sent to fight in the war with no clue if he would come home to us? I knew for a fact Angel's father was fighting in the war, and she was always worrying about him. Had my father gone would I be like that? I heard my name being called interrupting me mid-thought, Jessica, tugging my arm motioning me to walk faster. She opened her mouth as if she was about to say something but then shut it again as if she knew better. I couldn't think of a reason why she'd want to get to school with such urgency.
The bell shrilled, clearing the school court yard. I quickened my pace to my next lesson ---biology--- avoiding complication of having to spin a convincing story to my teacher of why I'm late. When I walked in the door I noticed the usual empty seat was occupied, my eyes drifted from the persons hands settled on the desk to the face, his face, I felt my breath catch. He was beautiful, His bronze hair an absolute disarray. He looked up raising one eyebrow revealing an emerald green eye colour, I felt blush creeping onto my cheeks, and looked away quickly. Walking to my seat, stumbling slightly. The blush on my cheeks felt permanent, I could feel his gaze on me. Making me blush a deeper beat red.
The rest of the lesson passed in a blur, as for the rest of the day, I was sure the time had stopped by lunch time. When the bell shrilled for the finale time today, I half ran home, hanging up my cape ,"It's just not quite right", mother chimed leaning against the parlour door way, Startling me, gesturing toward the ladle in her hand. "I just can't get it right". Trust mother to be worrying over such mundane things, like what the soup tasted like. "I'm sure it will be fine" I murmured and turned around to straighten the cloth on the side table. She sighed and returned to tending to dinner,
Sensing she was gone I picked up the picture on the small side table and blew the dust of it, revealing the picture of my two parents, Charlie and Renee smiling happily. I lightly traced my finger of the picture of father, putting it back in its place, and turned to the stairs.
Something urged me toward the library; I hadn't been in there since fathers passing. It extended onto his study, making being in there much too painful to bear. Clive, my cat, was happy to sleep anywhere with sunlight. I hovered at the door way, unsure if I should enter. The mixed smell of leather binding and tobacco lingered in the air. Clive's loud purring gave away his presence; I walked over to the pile of unfinished documents, which Clive was resting on and picked him up. He whined in protest, his eyebrows puckered together, making it look like he was frowning, I couldn't help but laugh at his almost human expression. He squirmed out of my grasp and returned to his spot. I decided I would open the window for him to make up for disturbing him. Out the window I saw a boy tethering a horse to the gate. Not just any boy the boy from my biology class.
