I've always gotten made fun of for my sharp pointy ears, and my pale/green complexion, But today id had enough. As soon as I came home i stormed up to my room and slammed the door behind me. I was determined to live the rest of my life in my room. Then no one could bully me. I walked over to my window and curled up under some blankets that lay next to it. I nestled more under my blankets as I heard a knock on my door."Atreyu, do you want some tea?" in response I grumbled a light "no" and curled into a tighter ball" there was an awkward pause before my mother barged into my room obviously not giving a fuck about how loud she was being. She walked up to the sad blanket(which contained me) and sat next to it. "so.." she paused" how was school?" this was the question that all parents asked, and I honestly think its a bit repetitive. like why cant they ask something else such as "Did they release the new episode of of that one show you like?" in retort to my mother's annoying question I mumbled "FINE!, just dandy." she didn't reply, in fact it was completely silent. I decided to peek out through a little crack in the blanket. She was nowhere to be seen. figures, everyone leaves me eventually. My dad, my friends, everyone. I snuggled back into my cozy blanket, too done to worry about where my mom went off to.
About five minutes passed before I heard my mother calling my name as she shuffled to my room. I slowly got out of my blanket to see my mother holding various sweets such at pocky, candy corn,and a steaming hot cup of coco. " now, you are going to tell me what happened today, while you enjoy this" she handed me the goodies. I let out a heavy sigh but then I finally told her the events that happened today. "They called me an elf" i covered my eyes so she couldn't see that i was beginning to tear up. I then explained to my mom how they beat me up and stole my favorite hoodie. i took a sip of my hot chocolate then looked at my mom. she was staring off with a rather angry look. "mom are you o-" i started to say but was interrupted my mother yelling" YOU'RE NOT AN ELF!!!" i stared at her and then spoke softly"that's what you're upset most about?" she then realized how harsh she had just sounded her eyes softened as she looked at me. I opened up the pocky and dipped one into my coco. My mom hummed thoughtfully before saying"wait here a moment" as if i was going to go anywhere. she then promptly left the room leaving me alone to nibble on my snacks for a bit. A few moments later my mother returned with a rusty looking package in her hands." I think its time you opened this" she handed me the package and stared at it longingly"its from your father." there was an awkward pause before she left me to open the package.
I was hesitant to open the package, I already had a bad enough day. I didnt want that bastard to somehow make it worse. He never visited me ive never actually met my father. the only reason i know hes alive and exits is he writes me a birthday card every two years. I stared at the rustic package for a moment before gently ripping it open to reveal a small, plain, black book. The front was engraved with a skull of a bull, that was just barely tinted red. I traced my fingers across the marking on the book before carefully opening the book. Just as i opened it a piece of paper wrapped with a pendant fell to the floor, I quickly swooped up the letter and charm. I examined the jewel first it was a red smooth crystal intertwined with leather, it looked like a fashionable bracelet. I put the necklace on top of the book and opened the letter with my named addressed at the top.

Okay, okay. UM WHAT? everything about this made me want to throw up. What shook me up the most would have to be the fact that everything is going to change, and that ill see him soon. like what, I've never seen him once why would it change now??? I stared at the letter for a few moments longer before setting it down and rubbing my temples. This honestly makes no sense. I looked at the book expecting it to come alive or something. I decided to go see what my mom had to say about this. I walked down the creaky stairs from my room and decended into the living room. "mom?" i called out. There was no answer. i looked over at the table next to the couch and saw a note. I picked it up and read
𝓘 𝓽𝓱𝓸𝓾𝓰𝓱𝓽 𝔂𝓸𝓾 𝔀𝓸𝓾𝓵𝓭 𝔀𝓪𝓷𝓽 𝓽𝓸 𝓫𝓮 𝓪𝓵𝓸𝓷𝓮 𝓯𝓸𝓻 𝓽𝓱𝓲𝓼. 𝓼𝓸 𝓲 𝔀𝓮𝓷𝓽 𝓸𝓾𝓽. ~𝓶𝓸𝓶
Of course she's not here. I looked over at the tv, im just going to wait till she gets back to read it. I turned the tv and and switched through the channels until i was satisfied. It was a show about a dude who travels through space fighting evil aliens and stuff. I could feel myself dozing off. what time was it? I looked over at the clock it read " 9:46 pm" its not too late... I must be exaughsted...I closed my eyes and everything went dark and still.
