aww poor Terra! Kay, review!
Things went from bad to worse after that night. Lenny's parents had rushed him to the hospital after the accident and I soon found out that he was in a coma. After I heard the news I rushed to my room and stayed there most of the night. But, come ten o' clock, could hear my parents arguing loudly in the kitchen.
"I don't know what to think, Deanna"! Yelled my dad.
"Come on, James", my mom said cooly, "she's just a child."
"But do you understand the lawsuits we'll have to pay if this continues"?
"Calm down", she replied, "it could be a one-time thing".
"But what if it's not"! He answered sharply. I could hear the anger in his voice.
My mother went silent. "I-I don't know". She finally said with an uncertain tone.
"She is not to use her powers"! My father concluded. "If she doesn't use them at all then we wont have to risk any 'accidents'."
Not use my powers! But they were the most important thing to me! I thenhoped my mom was right and the accident was a one timer.
I walked to my bed gently folded my hands together and started to pray. How do you start these, I wondered?
"Dear God", I began, "please, please, PLEASE let Lenny get better! I swear I wont ask for anything else ever again if you let him stop being sick! PLEASE", I punctuated for emphasis. I paused pondering how to finish. "Um ok, bye?"
I then flopped unto my bed and soon fell into a fitful sleep.
The next day at school was a disaster. I stepped unto the linoleum floored hallway expecting to be sneered at all day. But after being completely ignored I wouldn't have minded being teased, at least it was human contact. My strict math teacher who always would drill everyone on last night's homework seemingly "forgot" to check mine or ask me questions. Normally I wouldn't have minded, but today I knew the reason, they were afraid of me.
This continued for about a week, until the night I realized that my powers were a curse.
Oh clif-hanger-sorta!okay, so yes short chapters, sorry! R&R please.
