The warm sun of an October morning in Florida is what awoke me that school day from my slumber. I stretched my arms as I awoke. I threw off the covers and got out of bed. A slightly sharp wave of cold hit me as I did.
I slapped my hands to my elbows and shivered. My arms and legs got goosebumps on them. I was starting to always be cold.
''Burrrr,'' I said.
I rubbed my hands on my upper arms. I could feel the tiny goosebumps as I ran my hands over my upper arms.
''Just get to the bathroom before anyone else does,'' I kept on muttering to myself as I walked out of my bedroom.
I felt something in my stomach when I got to the bathroom. I realized today was October second the fiftieth anniversary of Victor's death.
I took a good look at myself in the mirror. I'd been doing this for a month and I'd lost 12 pounds. I was now 133 pounds and counting down.
''Victor would be proud of you,'' I told myself in my thoughts.
Victor was my Kuya and I was to him Shisutā. The reason for this was because our birth father had been apart of the Royal Navy and previous to marrying our mother and settling down. He traveled across the oceans and he sometimes picked up books that had words in foreign languages in them.
And when we were little Victor and I would always ask him to take out the books and find words in them for us. And so that's how we got our nicknames as Kuya is Filipino for elder brother and shisutā is Japanese for sister.
I remember the day Victor died.
I remember the day before he died I begged him not to go.
He left anyway said he was going mad locked up in Cairnholm.
And then a day later. A Hollow killed him. I was devastated. I became depressed and wouldn't come out of my room or eat for days after.
But I ended up picking myself back up and going on living.
I finished thinking about Victor after I just finished washing my face. And getting it dry.
I realized then. I could get away with not eating breakfast today. Because it being the day Victor died. It would be understandable that I was not hungry.
I felt my stomach growl. I left the bathroom and got dressed (a pair of dark jean shorts, a pink t-shirt with a melting cherry Popsicle on it, and my black and white daisy sneakers).
I put them on. And went downstairs. Emma, Jacob, and I would be making breakfast today as Miss Peregrine was too upset to do anything today.
Fiona , Hugh, Emma, and Jacob were already downstairs. In the kitchen working on breakfast when I got into the kitchen.
Fiona tapped a neon-green painted finger nail on her hip.
''Morning Bronwyn,'' she said looking over from making breakfast.
Later at school I was sitting in chemistry class with my lab partner Jason.
I put on a sweatshirt before I left the house because I was too freezing to go without it.
Mr. Shaft was talking at the front of the class.
Jason was writing down what he said in his notebook and I was doing the same but in my notebook.
The lunch bell rang.
As we were heading out of class Jason asked me. ''Bronwyn you've been a bit pale recently. Are you feeling okay?''
''Yeah,'' I said and then Jason walked away.
I walked off to the cafeteria but Lauren stopped me before I got there.
''Listen Bronwyn. I'm sorry about what Chelsea did to you. She's always like that. And don't tell her I told you this but she's a spoiled bitch,'' said Lauren.
''Thanks for telling me Lauren,'' I said.
''And I'm your side Bronwyn,'' said Lauren.
''Okay,'' I said and walked away.
I looked down at my black nails as I walked to the cafeteria.
I group of popular girls walked past me giggling.
''Oh, Bird. They're giggling at me!'' I thought.
I raced to the cafeteria and got just a veggie burrito and water. And then raced to the lunch table that Hugh, Fiona, Jacob, and Emma were sitting at.
''Bronwyn what's wrong?'' asked Emma.
''I'm just upset,'' I said.
Emma moved next to me and rubbed my back softly.
''It's okay Wyn,'' she whispered in my ear.
''Emma. People are staring,'' said Jacob.
Emma moved back over to Jacob.
And I slowly ate my burrito and drank my water. I could not wait to hear the next bell.
Hugh, Fiona, Emma, and Jacob talked all throughout lunch.
I hated how they could eat whatever they wanted and still stay skinny.
I hated it so much.
The bell rang.
I got up and raced to gym class.
And repeatedly told myself that those girls where giggling at me.
And I convinced myself of this.
And so everyone another chapter at its' end. I hope you all enjoyed. Comment and review down below and I'll see you next time for chapter 8.
