Anyways, let's get to the story.
Chapter 2: Not So Good Morning
Penny's POV
Well, it's Monday which meant another day at school. I just wish I didn't have to go because I don't want to be near anyone. Especially Sherman. I just wanna steer clear from him as possible. I just know he's probably gonna get angry at me for my stupid mishap and what it nearly cost him.
Just like every day I slip on my same school uniform. It started with of course my inner clothing, then goes up to my white button up shirt with long sleeves, which hid my scars on my arms. Which is good. I don't wanna bring attention to myself. Then I slip on my gray skirt and a black tie around my neck. I tie it a bit tighter than I used to, but it wasn't enough to cut off my oxygen. I then put on a navy blue vest and finish it off with blue socks and black shoes.
I then walk to the dining room where my mom was cooking breakfast while my dad was reading the newspaper while sipping on some coffee. My mom looks at me and smiles as usual.
Patty: Good morning sweetie.
Penny: Good morning mom.
Patty: I left you some breakfast on the table.
I go to the table where I see a plate of scrambled eggs, two sausage links and a bed of hash browns. Also in the corner was a glass of orange juice, which was freshly squeezed. It all looked delicious, but like I always do with my food, I decline.
Penny: No thanks mom. I'm not hungry.
I turn away to sit and wait in the living room before my mom stops me.
Patty: Penny? What is happening to you lately?
Penny: What do you mean?
Patty: You haven't been eating anything I cook lately. Not for breakfast or for dinner.
Paul: She does have a point.
Penny: I uh... I... I'm just trying to maintain a slim figure. So I only eat at school
Obviously, that was a lie. What can I say to them? I'm slowly starting myself to death? I can't say that. Surely, they believe my lie.
Patty: Okay, go wait in the living room. I'll drop you off at school in a minute.
I not and step out of the dining room and head for the living room.
Patty's POV
As I see Penny walk away, I can't seem to feel a certain uncertainty. She seemed so defensive when it came to talking about her diet. She seems to look and maybe feel... different.
Patty: Paul?
Paul: Yes?
Patty: Did you happen see anything different about Penny?
Paul: Just a bit. But I think it's just a phase most kids go through.
Patty: I hope you're right.
I grab the car keys and prepare to step our before looking back at Paul.
Patty: I'm gonna take Penny to school. Have a good day at work honey.
Paul: You too dear.
I walk towards the living room and sew Penny sitting on the couch.
Patty: Time to go.
She immediately rises from her seat and walks with me to the car.
Penny's POV-10 minutes later...
It didn't take too long to get to school. My mom drives up the curb of the driveway facing the entrance. She leans toward me and kisses my cheek.
Patty: Have a good day sweetheart.
Penny: You too mom. Bye.
I open the door and step out of the car. I do nothing but watch my mom drive away until she blended with the other cars on the road. I stare for a bit longer until I felt a tap on my shoulder and turn around to see a way familiar face.
Sherman: Hi Penny!
Sherman came up to me and smiled as he spoke. I was only frightened as I sped away from him. I didn't wanna be near him. It would cause more pain if I stay and talked
Sherman's POV
Sherman: Penny! Wait!
That was all I can say as I watched Penny run into the school. I don't know what made her run off like that. I only wanted to say hi to her. I mean we are best friends, right? I do hope so. I mean I always thought that was true since we put our rivalry behind us.
Oh don't be silly Sherman. Maybe she's dealing with personal demons. Maybe she just wants some space. I do want to be able to help somehow. I only wish Penny gets better from whatever she's suffering from.
To be Continued...
A/N: I'm surprised to see a lot of people want to see what happens next here. As if this was putting people on the edge of their seats waiting to see what's next. I guess all it takes is a bit of a change in style.
I'm still unsure if this will be the only time I write in a darker format, but if an opportunity presents itself, and had to be done in a dark tone, I'll consider it. But until then, this is all I got.
Also, Shinigamilover2, while he did wanted to see more, he preferred that I make this story a two-shot. Which meant I would have to cram everything I had planned out for this story into this single chapter, not to mention rushing it too soon as it just began. So as much as I would love to honor a request made by a friend, sadly, this is one I cannot make happen.
Anyways, stay tuned for what I have next coming your way next Thursday.
