The clock flashed. On and off and back on again. I knew it was thirty minutes after I had to wake up. But the infinite abyss, I call laziness came back. Its like a spiral, you know? Once it begins it never ends.
I heard Mrs. Wilson call out, "Ella!! I know you're awake! Get your sleepyhead down here, breakfast is ready."
As I was walking down the stairs to the next floor I was thinking, how nice it would be to have a family to actually come here and make breakfast for me. I've been at this beat up home for my whole life. I'm 16 now. I just expect to never have a parent so I be my own. That's why I wake up 30 minutes before breakfast, most of the time anyways, just to help Mrs. Wilson make breakfast. For all the kids in the orphanage.
"Finally you're down here." Mrs. Wilson said with a rushed tone, " What dream were you off to today?"
"Well I went off to a place with perfect harmony, I got out of the orphanage with a family" I Said with joy.
"One day you might." Exclaimed Mrs. Wilson with hope.
"I doubt it." I frowned "I have been here for 16 years now."
"You see that's why people never want to adopt you." She tried to explain
"You never let-" She was saying but I didn't listen to the rest.
I honestly go through this twice a month I basically have her speech memorized I just get spacey in the mornings. Its mostly because of my A.D.D I can't really pay attention. I used to get medicated but we can barely afford breakfast now. So I "drift" as I like to call it. That's why I never get to have a long relationship. I'll be thinking about something and my "boyfriend" will ask me "What are you thinking about, there Ella?" and they want me to say "You" but I don't think of that I think that a sneeze travels out your mouth at over 100 m.p.h. and that is faster than a baseball. Than I imagine noses in baseball uniforms sneezing home runs.
"Ella!!!" Mrs. Wilson shouted "C'mon you'll be late for school."
"School, uh- right" I said
I walk to school since my house is a mile away
I hate school. My diary confirms that in every entry. Everyone is always so mean to me. I only really have one friend, her name is Nora. But the thing about Nora is that shes never at school. So most of the time school is a prison. But I knew I had to be here anyways. Better be on task and mad than spaced I thought as I opened my locker.
"HEY!!! CHEEKY MONKEY!!!"
I'd recognize that voice anywhere that mean old son of a-
"WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING IN MY HALLWAY!?!!" Angelina yelled
"Um-" I didn't really know what to say "Walking here?"
"Shut up with your smart mouth" Angelina snapped "Nobody cares about you anyways. When will you realize that only people with power can be liked."
"Well I for one think shes okay." a voice said
"Nora??" I questioned
"Not her. But better." the voice said again "I'm Rey."
Rey? But shes the schools bad girl. Why would she help a lowlife like me??
"I don't give a crap who you are and what you want and who you stick up for" Angelina slammed her locker and mine
"YOU STILL SUCK ELLA!!!" Angelina said while splashing her coffee all on my school uniform. Both the shirt and the jacket.
"Here!" Rey Shouted "Catch!"
