it was a tuesday, well i think it was i cant really remember that well i don't want to
remember that well anyway it was (most likely) a tuesday meaning that maths was my first lesson of the day or should have been really all i ever did was fake a headache and sleep in the nurses office.
it was a bad day right from the word go firstly my alarm clock went off too late meaning i had five minutes until i had to be in school and it took 6 to actually get their not that i was really that bothered or anything but i did promise berry i would try to turn up at school on time and she was gonna flip when i didn't "noah eli puckerman get your behind down here now your worse then your father" o shit, not this again that was the second bad thing. my ma always had a habit of say things about my dad see when i was nine he packed up and left us me my ma and my two year old sister delilah we got on with it but my ma couldn't ever let us (me and my sister) forget about it she was always dad this dad that "oh noah your just like him when you do this that or the other" basically she made it almost impossible not to hate her guts and to make it worse she wouldn't ever tell us why he left or she would say some cryptic shit that even my sister didn't get like "he went of to carry on the family business " or "he thought we weren't important as his job" and as far as i know we don't have a family business when he left he didn't have a job.
"your late again" the woman behind the front desk hisses glaring at me i shrugs and walk past not even bothering to make any excuse's. in the corner of the hall i see a pretty girl who i hadn't seen at school before and flash her a smirk and a wink she looks unfazed and rolls her eyes and for a small second i could have sworn they went black but it must have been the light as they were now definitely blue i turn away from the strange girl and head straight to the nurse. "um i have a headache can i s-" the nurse swirls and interrupts me "just go and lie down i don't even care anymore" what a good nurse i think sarcastically before plopping on to the bed with a drawn-out sigh and shut my eyes.
"I'm just going out for a few seconds" yea i really do not give one"ok then"i reply "don't touch anything and don't go wondering about" ok I'm not three i can control myself and i don't have anywhere else to be "don't sweat it" i say calmly she just nods and walks out of the room humming softly to herself, she was not a young woman but she wasn't yet middle-aged and she was slightly tubby but had a pretty face and almond like eyes and today she seemed in a better mood practically glowing with... what? joy
excitement..maybe, today i just don't want to think.
normally i wasn't one to worry but today i was the nurse had said a few secs but when she wasn't back by half an hour i was suspicious because even normally the copier didn't take this long and she wouldn't think about leaving me in a medical room for more then 10 minutes with god knows what in the draws. i let out a huff before standing up bored of waiting i made my way over to the door and stepped out slowly walking down the corridor. what the hell where is everybody? smack! is the sound my back makes as i hit the floor landing in a puddle of sticky red substance dear lord please just be a slushy it was most definitely not a slushy it was warm and had a thick consistency not a cold and lumpy one, i tip my head to the side and see lying there the pale and dead face of the nurse. oh,why the hell don't i go to maths?
