"Jennifer, it's time for school!" was the first thing I heard this morning. I mumbled something that sounded like 'I don't want to' and slowly got out of my bed. I walked over to my dresser and picked an outfit. It was a cute little purple dress with a white bow in the middle. I put on my white high heels and stepped towards my mirror. I put on a little make-up, only mascara, because I liked my face more natural. I did my hair and after that I walked down the stairs to the living room, where my mum had already made me some breakfast. I slowly ate it and had a little talk with my mum about how I looked. "Maybe it's a little too… showing.." my mum said. I looked down and saw I didn't put the dress on right, so a piece of my boob was popping out of the dress. I blushed and fixed it while my mum was laughing at me. "Don't laugh! I put it on wrong!" I said while I pouted and looked at her. She stopped laughing, but still giggled a little. "Now go to school and don't forget to look at your dress sometimes" my mum said, starting to giggle again. I grabbed my backpack and walked towards school. It was only 10 minutes walking and I liked the fresh air. It was almost summer, so it was warm enough to walk outside without a jacket. I searched for my phone and found it in my bra. I put on a random song and sang along.

'I've been thinking 'bout all the things I'm searching for. Twenty years from now boy we could've done it all. I've been thinking 'bout all the times I lost my head. I've been thinking 'bout all the things I never said.

I won't think 'bout all the things that could go wrong. Nothing left to shout cause we got it going on. Standing in the crowd, yeah I know you won't be long. I'ma looking back in a minute will be gone.

Oh you bring me joy, yeah you bring me sadness. So you bring my love, so forget all the madness. I'm done with all the pain, I'm done with all the happenings. So you bring me joy, yeah you bring me sadness.

Oh you bring me joy, yeah you bring me sadness. So you bring my love, so forget all the madness. I'm done with all the pain, I'm done with all the happenings. Oh you bring me joy, yeah you bring me sadness.

I've been thinking 'bout everything I never had. All those crazy doubts, only gonna make me mad. I've been thinking 'bout everything I should've done. I'ma looking back, when I've only just begun.

I've been thinking 'bout standing on the razor's edge. Looking up and down, questions running through my head. I've been thinking 'bout how I know which way to turn. I've been thinking 'bout lessons that I'll never learn.
Oh you bring me joy, yeah you bring me sadness. So you bring the love, so forget all the madness. I'm done with all the pain, I'm done with all the happenings. So you bring me joy, yeah you bring me sadness.
Oh you bring me joy, yeah you bring me sadness. So you bring the love, so forget all the madness. I'm done with all the pain, I'm done with all the happenings. So you bring me joy, yeah you bring me sadness
You, you, you, you, you, you, you, you
You, you, you, you, you, you, you, you
And maybe we were built to break. And this lasts a little more than we can take. Maybe we were built to last. And we're strong enough to break the past.
Oh you bring me joy, yeah you bring me sadness. So you bring the love, so forget all the madness. I'm done with all the pain, I'm done with all the happenings. So you bring me joy, yeah you bring me sadness.
Oh you bring me joy, yeah you bring me sadness. So you bring the love, so forget all the madness. I'm done with all the pain, I'm done with all the happenings. So you bring me joy, yeah you bring me sadness.'

When the song finished I looked around. My eyes were wet and I knew I was almost crying. Thoughts of my boyfriend, wait, I mean ex-boyfriend, popped into my head. How could he do that to me? He cheated on me. The times we had together were special, or at least I thought they were. When he left me, he said he had to do homework or he had other excuses. I never doubted him, 'till I saw him kiss my closest friend. She dropped me too. I was all alone. Now I could already see the school and all of the teens standing in front of it. It was about half a mile to walk from here. So I slowed down a little and finally stopped. 'What will they do to me today?' was the first thing that popped into my head. 'Will they spread rumours about me that aren't true or will they just laugh at me and make fun of me? Or will it get worse, will they hit me?' I looked to my right and saw a little old bench. I sat down and looked at my phone. It was just 9.16AM, I still had time 'till 9.45AM to get to school. I sat down and looked around again. There was a man letting his dog out and on the other side of the road was a woman watering the flowers outside her window. Then my eyes met the eyes of a stranger I thought I've seen before. I didn't know his name, or how he talks. He just looked so familiar to me that my breath stopped.
