Monday came and I wake up with Pennywise. I get ready and wear black jeans with a simple white blouse and black sneakers. I put my hair up in a ponytail and go downstairs with my bag. "Morning mom." I kissed her cheek. It's a routine. "Morning, sweetie. Breakfast is ready." I nodded and looked at the yummy looking food. I started eating my food. "Ah, mom do you know where the keys are to my motorcycle?" She shook her head. "I'll look for them. So go by bus until I find them." I nodded. I finished and headed out to get my bus. It arrived just as the song Me like yuh by Jay Park starts to play.
In school, I'm being stared at as people whisper and laugh. Must be the thing that happened on Friday. I got to my locker and got my math book and headed to class. In class I tried to concentrate and take my notes and do my exercises. Class ended and I went for my next class.
Finally lunch and I head to the cafeteria. As I enter the room, people turn their heads as I make my way the food line. I get my food and try to distract myself from all the eyes. I just hope not to get bothered by bimbos. "Oh look, it's our heartbroken nerd." As if on cue. "Ah, it is." It's the five bimbos of our school. Charlotte, the one who leads the whole group. She has a medium length bob-cut, is taller than me by a few inches without her heels. Then you have Jamie and Ola, who are twins. Alexandria and Olivia. They were more like followers. "How could you think you of people could get Cameron? YOU!" They all laughed as she said that. "You are an ugly duck and so short and a nerd. No one would want you." Said Jamie. "Just keep your head between all the books you read like every nerd does." Said Ola this time. "You nerd." Said Charlotte with so much distaste. After that, they went to their 'VIP'- table. Yeah, VIP my butt.
As I get home, I undress into black shorts and a black tank and lay on my bed. I hate the way people look down on me. Getting your heartbroken is one thing, but being the talk of the day because of that, was another. People should mind their own damn business.
This repeated the whole week. It's finally weekend and I'm sick and tired of all the insults and stares and laughter behind, no scratch that, to my face. I changed and went to bed. To tired to move or stay awake. The next morning I wake up and went for a run with mom. After a shower and dressing up into my bottom front high-waist denim shorts, that Ajax forced me to buy and I am actually thankful that he did. I wear it with a white crop top with a smoothie drawn on it and black vans. I take my shoulder bag and head to the kitchen for an apple to see my motorcycle keys. "You found it? Where?" I ask mom, who's reading a magazine. "The place where our keys are supposed to be. The key pot in the cupboard in the living room." She answered. "Thank you! It's been so long since I drove it." I hugged her while saying that. "Your welcome. Are going to ride any time soon?" She answers as she hugged me back. "Yes, but I'm not going to ride it today." I answer. "Why?" She looked at me confused as she released her grip on me. "Because I'll be going shopping. Anyways, can I go shopping?" She looked at me as if I said 'Obama isn't black.' "Sure, you've only been saving your money and never spend a single penny on anything without me forcing you." "Hey!" I shouted in defense. She shrugged. I hugged her again and headed out. At the mall, I sit at the same spot like last week. As I was thinking of what I should buy, I hear: "Hey Shorty. Fancy meeting you here." I looked up to look at the person. It was Ajax. He sat next to me. "Hey Ajax. Same to you. What are you doing here?" "Walking aimlessly. You?" "Making an attempt on buying new clothes." I answer honestly. "Is it for revenge or something?" I looked at him as if he just said 'Obama is Shrek's best friend'. "No. Why the thought." He shrugged. "Your pride must have taken a blow or something and people might be using that to degrade you. I don't know. Anyways," he turned to face me, "you should change your image a little and make him want you and then you give a blow to his pride." He grinned evilly. I shook my head at the idea. He shrugged and we moved on the entering shops and being unneeded customers. Ajax and I only bought small things and food. Which annoyed the workers, but we laugh it off. It was a nice day.
