It had been quite a long day. School'd been alrite, boring. Long. The day passed by in a blur.
I was walking to the bus stop that night from the ballet school after yet another ballet class. I had ballet from 4 – 6 and stayed until 7 to practice by myself. I knew the steps and choreography that were required for the audition, which was in a few weeks. I needed to get in as much practice as I possibly could. I knew the story of Dracula, which Vanessa and I found incredibly fascinating.
It was raining, but there wasn't any thunder or lightning. I had my umbrella over me as I didn't want to get wet. I was sitting on the gray cement bus bench waiting for the bus to come. The bench was very uncomfortable. The fact that the only things I'd had to eat that day were Luna bars from my room probably didn't help my discomfort. This meant I hadn't eaten much which meant I was losing weight and therefore didn't have much muscle mass for padding, which made the bench just that much more uncomfortable. A large red apartment building was behind the bus bench. As usual at this time of day, my sister Molly, Vanessa, Claire and our brothers were out, Dad was at the office and Mom was at her book club meeting.
