"Finally" Raven breathed as she made her way to her third and last class of the day. Graphic Arts was her absolute favorite class. Not only could people do whatever they wanted, but they could also hang with their friends, talk and laugh and blare music as loud as they wanted and the professor wouldn't care as long as you had your assignment done before the end of every week. Of course Raven and her best friend, Sarah, were always done three to four days before the project was due. Meaning they had today and Friday to do whatever they wanted.
Best class ever!, Raven smiled as she slipped into the seat across from Sarah, who was dressed in bright colors, next to the floor-to-ceiling window.
"Hey" Sarah greeted with tired smile.
"Hey, what's up?" Raven asked as she hooked up her earphones to her phone and stuck one in her ear.
Sarah laid her head in her hands, "Nothing much. Oh, hey, I do need help with my Spanish, though." She pulled out a green binder, her favorite color, and pulled out some sheets of paper.
"Spanish, really?" Raven laughed, of course Sarah would come to her for help in Spanish. "Yeah, ok, I'll help" she agreed.
Graphic Arts dismissed, the girls said their goodbyes and made their way home. However, when Raven arrived home, it seemed like she had opened the front door looking into the living room to what seemed like some type of psychotic intervention. Both her parents were sitting on the couch across from a woman she did not recognize. Her mother, clutching to a crinkled envelope in her lap, appeared as if she had recently been crying and her dad looked like he was pissed off as hell about something. The strange woman was wearing glasses and was dressed in a black pant suit, looking eerily official and strict. And all three of turned to look and stare at her as she walked in.
Crap, Raven thought, they found out I did drugs She nervously brushed her loose bangs from her face. It's ok though, right? I mean it was a long time ago, and I only did it once.
"Hi, Raven, my name is Mrs. Lorren. Your parents and I were just talking about you. Why don't come here and sit down so we can speak with you." She said sweetly as she patted the seat of the chair next to her. Raven continued to stare at her for a few moments before cautiously taking the seat to sit on the edge.
"Raven, sweetie, have you ever heard of PSM?" Mrs. Lorren asked.
Confused, Raven looked at her questioningly. "Don't you mean PMS?" she asked in return glancing over at her dad to see him shift in his seat uncomfortably.
"No, I mean PSM. Possible soulmate…" She explained, then waited for Raven to digest the information.
"Um…" Raven managed to get out. "I..I'm sorry what!?" she looked at Mrs. Lorren with an incredulous look on her face. She was having trouble breathing, she was, wait was she? Oh my god she was, she was hyperventilating.
"Well, you see, sweetie" she started
"No! N-no…I don't see..I..You have..to be kid-"her breaths coming out in spurts and before she could get out what she was trying to say, Ravens legs gave out from underneath her and the next thing she knew, everything went dark as she heard her mother scream.
