After the car crash, Elsa moved in with her aunt. She was a nice person, as far as I knew. She had a nice home in the nice part of town. She had a nice job. Nice clothes. Nice hair. She was a woman that oozed niceness.
All of us at school knew that.
So we were all surprised when Elsa arrived at school freshman year, looking as punk as all get out.
I hadn't talked to her all summer...ergo, I hadn't really talked all summer. When I saw her new look, I figured it was just some faze she was going through, what with the loss of her parents. So I hesitated only a second before bounding up to her.
She turned, looking at me. I opened my mouth to say something. Probably something about how much I missed her. Or something.
But she didn't give me the chance. She pushed me away so suddenly and abruptly, I fell over, sliding into the lockers across the hall.
I wondered how she had became so strong, as I passed out to the sound of laughter and people high-fiving her.
