Silent Thinker, Loud Dreamer Prologue Written by: @_PumpkinPoodle_ Today was a normal day walking back from school. I mean, I love walking back from school; just because it was warmer than the mornings and it reminds me of the country; except, the amount of concrete isn’t comparable to where I live—a city. Although we had nicer neighborhoods, there isn’t anything bad about it here…I just miss being able to sprint through the tall grass and flowers and being able to dive into the lake every afternoon. Lost from daydreaming, I tripped over a stray weed growing through the cracks in the concrete. My backpack slumped over my head and my face turned red from embarrassment. I looked up and saw some people from school, huddled in a group and looking at me, giving me looks that were cruel, and disarming. All five of them—across the street—I’ve known two of them since third grade, which was when I moved here with my mom. The younger-looking two used to be my friends until they found the other three in fifth grade. To this day they would push me around and make me the laughing stalk in school. Honestly, I wanna be one of them, even though my brain screams in my ear: “You hate their GUTS!” Suddenly, they began to walk towards me. Quickly, I got up and began to sprint towards home; turning around I saw I was being chased by all five of them. I can’t describe how mortified I was at that point because by the time I got about a block away from the place I fell—I realized I dropped my keys when I fell. Quickly, I whipped my head around and looked behind my shoulder. Still there. I quickly U-Turned around the street onto the opposite sidewalk. To my luck, cars began whizzing by past me right after I got to the opposite side. Finally, I found the place I fell. Although to my dismay, they got to the place I fell first; they stared at me with the eyes of the devil. All of their faces were red and sweaty from running, a couple slumped over and a few clenching their fists in a pure, hell-rage as they stared at me with their wide eyes. I didn’t know what to do, other than pray they won’t find my keys. Today, was a normal day. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Hello, lovelies!
