Prologue
Aliens.
Time Travelers.
Espers.
I've been waiting patiently for them to spring up for a year now. Technically, I've been wishing for them to appear for four years. I would say I've been looking for them for most of my life but that is not true.
I used to be a rational person.
I might still be rational.
Starting my second year in North High without doing anything besides looking around for false evidence, I was nothing but gloomy. I felt like I should die, it was a dark and sick feeling. It was almost as if everyone had left me behind. I wanted to join them, maybe a small part of me wanted to.
The best thing I could do was stare out this window anyway . . .
The sky remained ominous on the third day of my second year. Rain was still pounding the windows like a drum and whispers filled my ears.
"She just looks out that window?"
"Yeah, she's hoping for a lot, isn't she?"
"She's the weird loner, huh? Really, she deserves it."
"I know."
These thoughts of mine mixed in with the whispers, clouding and distorting them.
"Want to ask her out?"
"That weirdo? Dude, no way!"
"She's pretty hot though."
"Only someone stupid would ask someone like her out."
"I must be stupid then . . ."
I try to ignore but the weight, the sound . . . it hurts. It never bothered me last year but . . .
"Hey did you watch that episode yesterday?"
"Yeah, it was hilarious!"
"You should come over and watch with me sometimes!"
Shut up, shut up, shut up!
"You awake idiot?"
"Yeah, you didn't draw on my face did you?"
"Why would I do such a childish thing?"
Guh . . . I'll just lay my head on this desk. Everything is just too heavy.
Why can't I just fade away?
. . .
. . .
The seat in front of me is still empty. . .
Why does it feel as if someone should be there?
Hey everyone! Another story already 0.0 ! Yes I'm daring aren't I? This is what summer does to you (Just wait until school starts).
