I can say that being me, isn't bad after all. I've got advantages!
But who am I trying to fool?
Advantages? I laugh bitterly as I continued my pace.
buzzez of noises.
I always hear those sounds. Whispers, shouts, I can hear it all.
Every colors. I can see it all but it always feels life black and white, it feels so dull.
Emotions. This is the strongest of them all. I can feel it if they are sad, happy, conscious, coward, inlove, angry and there so much more that I envy all the times.
It's funny to think that I can't feel emotions like; being sad, hurt, angry, but I always feel envious.
How ironic.
"hey guys, have you heard the news earlier?"
"about what? "
I stopped midstep as I heard voices at my back. Turning around, there I saw a bunch of teenagers sitting on the grass.
I crossed my arms as I watch them speak. Yeah, maybe this is one of my habits-if I have such thing-observing people.
"about the only daughter of Doctor Burrer. " the--i think seventeen years of age, the one with the thick glasses spoke gossiply.
I wonder what it feels like to wear that thing..
"Uhm.. I don't know. " the one with the hoody spoke as she shrugged it off.
Hmm I wonder what is that for..
"hey! I heard that too! " the giddy girl with a pixie hair cut interfered. I want to be giddy too..
"what about it? " the girl who was, I think sleeping earlier? Boredly asked.
Hmm I wonder, how does it feels to sleep?
"well-" the one with the glasses was cut off by the giddy girl.
"she died for no apparent reason! " she happyly exclaimed.
The sleepy girl and the hoody girl knotted thier forehead together, while miss glasses just rolled her eyes.
Isn't it hurt? You know, when they roll their eyes upward?
"so yeah-" again, miss glasses was cut off.
" I mean, they said that it was because of 'breathless'. But it's kinda weird they say, because she was healthy at all! " who else exclaimed this sentence exxagerately? A round of applause to miss giddy please.
Miss glasses frown, I can sense irritation overloading in her. I smirk. They are so transparent.
"well.. Maybe they didn't discover it yet? I mean. The illness of the girl? " miss sleepy head concluded.
I nod slowly, and I don't know why I did that 'nodding' thingy.
"but isn't w-"
"but isn't kinda weird?! " I bet a volcano will gonna explode any seconds now because of the so many 'cut of'.
"why?" finally! Miss hoody spoke!
"beca-"
"because her mother is a Doctor! " oh no miss giddy, you did not interupt miss glasses again!
And in three, two, one..
"what the hell Lyca! " the volcano exploded. Well, I'm kinda enjoying this show here. Maybe being me isn't bad at all? Again...
The 'Lyca' was now in shock.
I thought she'll talk forever.
Lyca was about to speak again but miss glasses cut her off immediately as she turn to look at the other two.
Nice one miss glasses.
"so yeah! Now you know it already! So what can you say?! " Woah.. I didn't expect this though.
I turn to look at the other two and I chuckle a bit as I saw the shock expression in their lovely faces.
"uhm-" miss hoody was about to speak but gain a mental block as miss glasses shot her a murderous glare.
"WHAT?! " promise. She looks like a monster right now.
The other two gulped. And as no one spoke, she tried to close her eyes tight as she muttered inhale.. Exhale...
It looks like fun I thought. Maybe I could do that later?
"soo.." here she goes again! The giddy girl spoke. Well, I kinda miss her irritating voice.
Miss glasses was about to explode again but stop whey they (we) heard a shout from somewhere.
I stopped moving-though I don't know if I'm really moving or what-when they faces me.
My brow knotted. Are they looking at me? Can I be seen now? Oh gosh! I suddenly felt excited and.. Happy?
Am I already free? I smiled at them and I was about to wave at them.
I didn't expect to feel this thing!
But my body felt weird. And that's when I realized that someone passed in me.
I felt blank. They are not looking at me, they are looking at the person behind me. I don't know what to feel..
I smirk a little
what do I know with my feelings?
I'm still with my curse.. I can never be free.
I was pulled from my trance as I heard a voice of a male.
"I was calling you a hundred times Lyca! " the guy spoke. Well, I can't define him very well because I'm still facing his broad shoulder, his biceps, his big but- what the hell am I thinking?!
I snapped out. Gosh. That was close.
My brow knotted again and again! What the hell? Why am I even feeling this freaking feeling!!
I just shrugged it off. it's rubbish.
I again focused on their conversation.
"check your damn phone Lyca! " why is he shouting like that?
"ugh! " Lyca irritatingly whispered as she pulls something from her pocket. A cellphone.
Well I know this thing because I always see this anywhere and with anyone. Is thing thing important?
Her pique expression suddenly changed into something soft.
"oh. I forgot to turn it on. " and she let out a peace sign to the guy.
I can't see the guy's expression, but I can feel that he's mad. Very mad.
"you! Go.home.now!" Woah. That was rude. You know, to point at someone.
"you don't Need to shout!" however, giddy girl knows how to control her voice even though she really want burst out.
Well, I can almost hear their hearts beating so loud.. In a bad way.
"I will if I can lady! So go home now! " Woah. Who is he anyway?
I saw her friends only gave her sympathetic looks. Well even miss glasses is now calm while giving miss giddy the looks.
Lyca harshly exhales as she stomp her feet towards me and slightly bump the boy's shoulder even though she can't hardly do it because of the height.
I felt it when miss giddy passed in me.
But I felt foreign when the guy finally faces me.
What is this feeling?
