DAD?! Are you alright..? DAD?!! SOMEONE HELP US! SOMEBODY ANYBODY! PLEASE!

DAD! I shot up my eyes wide open and saw my mom clearly had worried plastered all over her face , trying to figure out if I had the same nightmare all over again. Like any other caring mother she is and sees right through me, she quickly hand me a glass of water and wipe of the cold sweat that trickled down from my forehead all the way to my neck.

Honey it had been 11 years since your father left us,can't you just move on? Maybe it might help you on getting rid off those dreams you're having...
"More like having a nightmare to be exact", I taught to myself while silently taking a sip from the glass of water that mom just bought in.Not wanting the topic to get any longer, I quickly excuse myself and step in to the bathroom and prepared myself for school.
:
Before I left home and catch the school bus, I've noticed that mom prepared some sandwiches for breakfast before she went out to work early today.So I settle down to eat on the first seat that caught both of my sapphire blue eyes to attention,and that is dad's green armchair but tears came rolling down my eyes as soon as memories rushed in about him reading his daily newspaper with a nice cup of warm coffee by his side every morning while giving me his signature smile that I longed for.... Eventually I've lost my appetite and left with an empty stomach.
:
I went into the bus and took my usual place to sit and that is next to the window. Some people would find this a bit weird about me but I usually had my thoughts out the most while I stared out the window when the bus starts to drive, its like my mind is on a different planet while my body is still here.For some reasons, I oddly find it quite relaxing doing so..weird huh?

But as usual, nobody would like to sit beside me because of the rumours they've created about my personality being weird is the cause of me having no friends at all. Neither what they did to me is less of my concern, as long as my past stays hidden always. Then suddenly a sillhoulette of a man could be seen beside me and made me shocked to the point that all I could do was froze on the spot thinking on what should I do next.I tried to take a slight glance at him ,wondering who could he be to make such a decision to sit with a weirdo without consedering his reputation. To my surprise it was Cyrus.One of the most popular guys in school, almost every girl there has a crush on him. Then why would he sit here out of all the other available seats in the bus? My thoughts we're immediately interrupted by the sound of a soft sob..That sound actually came from Cyrus who was crying silently next to me. I had to admit that I'm certainly a shy little girl but being as curious as ever had push me to the end of the line and ask him what's wrong eventhough I never even spoke to him in person but his reaction didn't surprise me though, giving me a look that obviously spoke out Mind-your-own- business and said Don't talk to me with a cold teary glare at me. Jeez~ fineee, I was just trying to help you...
