Chapter 2- Hear the Cry of Youth
Sam cursed under her breath, one of her parents always waited for her to get home so how could they not notice her? Thankfully her mum was still in the kitchen "yeah mum it's me" she said in a shaky voice, she was still shocked at the way Alex had reacted and not to mention had a split lip from his punch. Before her mum could come out to see her Sam ran into her room, locked the door and went to clean herself up. She changed her clothes and managed to clear up the blood, all that was left was a scar but luckily it was inside her lip, therefore unnoticeable.
"Sam are you ok? Sammy?" her mum asked with concern, then she unlocked the door (one problem with having a lock on your door, at least one of your parents have to know the password) and walked in to find Sam lying on her bed with headphones on (sure they were turned off but her mum didn't know that).
"Hmm? Oh hey mum sorry I didn't know you were there" she lied,
"That's ok Sammy (god how she hated her mum calling her that) dinner's going to be ready soon so you might want to come downstairs now" her mum said then left the room. After a couple of minutes Sam got up and went downstairs flinching when her brother barged past her to get to the table, "oh great burger and chips my favourite" she thought sarcastically. Just like the music on Planet Mall the food was all the same, plus it was all stuff to do with chips which Sam just so happened to hate but never told her mum because according to her "everyone loves chips". She sat down and ate with everyone else not even daring to look at Alex, as her thoughts drifted to her secret song and wondered what else she could add to it then just went back up to her room muttering a quick "thanks mum" then locked her door, even if her mum did know the password she would still have more time to stop what she was doing as she would hear the computer beeping.
Sam walked over to her computer and turned it on going straight to her song to add more to it.
She had almost finished it, she just wanted to check it over a bit more. "Yes I think I've finally got the end". She then started muttering the new lines quietly to herself, "got no feel, I got no rhythm, I just keep losing my beat……" "Yeah that'll sound good just about there" she said as she added that to the last verse. "Now all I need is an ending, wait I've got it". What Sam didn't know was that at this very moment Alex was in his room emailing more or less the whole school telling them to stay away from her in case they got some bad ideas from her and started acting like freaks too, Alex was a popular kid and was the most well known person in the boys sector (renamed the Boy-Zone) so everyone would do what he told them.
