When I awoke the next morning flashes of last night went through my head like a bullet. “I just had a bad dream” I told myself letting out a heavy sigh.
I opened my door to hear my parents talking in the kitchen. “Did you already drop Alex off at school Daniel?” My mother asked my father with no sign of giving a fuck.”the hell woman no I didn't that is not a man's job” my father barked back at her as he set the newspaper he was holding down on the countertop looking up at her. “Well where is he then cause he wasn't in his room when I went to go wake him up” my mother yelled back she was looking red in the face. “maybe he ran away then or like got kidnapped” he shrugged it off as if it was nothing. “Well he was most likely kidnapped I guess I mean he's like what 5 or something I don't really remember” she let out a light sigh as if it was a relief that I wasn't there.
I decided to walk into the kitchen. “Mom I'm five” I said timidly not wanting her to get mad again. They didn't even look in my way as if I wasn't there. “Mom I said I'm five” I said again but a lot louder. They still ignored me. I guess they just didn't want to talk to me, I thought as I turned away to go get my stuff for school.
When I got to the school bus I saw my one and only friend anna. She was 4 and only a few inches shorter than me.
She had long brown hair that she always tied into a braid. She had beautiful blue eyes like that of an ocean.”hey Anna” I called out to her while waving my hand. “I wonder when Alex will get here he's going to be late.”dude I'm like right in front of you” I said to her I was like a few feet away from her now. I waved my hand In front of her face but she didn't react like she normally would. “Oh well the bus is here I got to go” I said to her while stepping up the steps of the bus. She didn't even reply what a meany I thought myself while sitting on my seat on the bus.
When I arrived at school I got off the bus and not even the bus driver seed to notice me. How funny right. When I got to class I walked over to my seat that was in the front.”alright I'm going to take attendance now” the teacher miss.kendall said to us.”alright is Alex here”she said looking around the classroom.”I'm right here miss.kendal.” I called out while raising my hand. She didn't notice or even respond. And that's when it hit me was I really invisible to everyone. I have to test this. I got out of my seat unnoticed. I walked over to my bully's desk. He didn't even notice me normally If he saw me he would want to hit or yell at me. I was surprised for sure that he didn't even react. “Whatever” I sighed as I walked behind him and grabbed the back of his chair. I pulled it as hard as I could and he fell right on his ass. He looked around the class, they were all laughing at him.”who the hell did that he screamed looking at me. Well more like through me.”I did” I said as I waved my hand in his face. He still didn't notice I was there, as I looked around I saw that nobody noticed that it was me. Tears welled up in my eyes as I ran out of the class and straight out the front door to the school itself. No one noticed.
When I got home I ran straight into my room. I didn't leave it for a few hours until I got hungry. As I left my room I noticed that my mom and dad's door was wide open and they were talking about me so naturally I peeked my head in to listen to what they were saying. “So like Alex still isn't home, and apparently he wasn't at school either.” My mother said without a single emotion on her face. She really didn't care about me that much? “Ok and.” My father said back not looking up from his phone. “Well I was wondering if we should file a missing kids report or something” she shrugged her shoulders letting out a sigh.”nah let's not get the police involved it could be a lot of paperwork.” My father said in reply still not looking up from his phone.”plus he probably isn't eveny son.” My father said setting his phone down and looking at mom. “What the actual fuck do you mean by that, are you assuming that I cheated on you!” My mom said getting up from the bed and aggressively turning toward dad. “Yes I am assuming that I mean look at him. I have brown hair and blue eyes, your a blue eyed blondy, he has black hair and green fucking eyes.” My father said as he grabbed her phone from beside him on the bed and threw it across the room. It shattered as it hit the wall.”what the actual fuck daniel.” My mom screamed and her yelling always hurts my ears.”oh shut the fuck up woman you fucking cheated on me.” My dad yelled back as he picked his phone back up. “I'll be back later.” He yelled as he walked past my mother and out of the bedroom door. He grabbed his coat and walked outside, got in his car and drove away. Tears welled up in my eyes as I went into my mom's room to comfort her and see if she was ok.”momma are you ok” I said as hot tears started to fall down my cheeks. Of course she didn't notice me. I kept forgetting that she couldn't see me. I ran out of her room in frustration with myself.”I wish I wasn't so stupid” I said in a shaky voice, I couldn't stop myself from crying. I got in my bed and covered my face with my soft and fuzzy blanket. I fell asleep while crying that night. I didn't even realize I fell asleep.
