The Phoenix

THE TRUTH COMES OUT 🧐🧐

I went straight to the back sit of the bus I did not talk to anyone as usual when I was sitted I put on my head phone and played my jams. You might be wondering how can someone be a loner in their final year we'll is easy like ABC first you must never smile when in school .Secondly never pay much attention to people talking to you , thirdly never ever sit next to someone be it at lunch or the classroom or even the bus . You see simple and the best part is that people understand that and they give me my space cool right ? Not really I don't really care about making friends because I just don't get people like why the stereotypes? Why must everyone be classified under one group or the other aren't we all human ? You get my point right so that's why when I get to school I go straight to my locker .Then just as I was about to make my way to my homeroom I start hearing whispers and the shocking thing is that they are not about me. I saw the new students they looked like they all came out of some modelling magazine said some random girl. So that's why the whispers were not about me oh well is none of my business so I started on my way to my homeroom . Just as I was turning towards a bend I walked straight into a wall and fell down .Hey are you ok I heard someone asking before I could answer the said person was already picking me up . That's when I realized I did not run into a wall but a person , I quickly apologize and was about to make a run for it when the same guy held my hand successfully stopping me from running .Oh did you notice I said a guy yes I did it was a freaking guy and I don't even talk to girls talk more of guys. Hey Earth to lost girl I turn and look at him immediately feeling embarrassed that he caught me day dreaming .So I was just asking if you could help me am kind of new here and I think I lost my way while coming back from the washroom he said .Oh I said I guess it wouldn't kill me to help him , so I turned to him and said where do you want to go to ? Oh my homeroom 3B he said . That's my homeroom too I was just going there follow me I said we walked quietly in the corridors until he spoke am Justin he said. Alex I replied back without looking at him I was in no mood for meaningless conversation and I think he got it since he quiet till the time reach the homeroom when we entered he immediately waved at some group of other kids then he held my hand and dragged me to their place. Guys this is Alex , Alex these are my friends he started pointing at them one by one and they all said hello .The blonde guy is Chad the other blonde next to him is Max they are twins .The red head is Lucy the girl next to her is Prisca and then the blue haired guy is Mike and the brunette close to him is Stella .Emm nice to meet you I said just as the teacher came in I was about to go to my spot when Justin said sit with us please I was in no mood to argue and the teacher was already in class so I sat down next to them at that moment I realized something I had broken all my rules in a matter of few minutes since meeting Justin when the homeroom teacher was done I immediately stood up and practically ran to my next lesson.

Not long after I settled down I saw Justin and his crew they all sat down close to me. I should have known I mummured under my breath . What was that Alex? I didn't quite get you he said in a mocking tone to say I was shocked was an understatement how did he hear me . I narrowed my eyes at him and asked how did you hear me I asked his eyes widened for few seconds before they became passive I wasn't even sure if it really happened or I just imagined it He just said good hearing and kept a lazy face as if it was nothing. The teacher came into class and started teaching and that was how my day continued with Justin and his crew following me every where I had every class with them and during lunch they sat at my table they had spoilt my loner reputation in a day but I didn't have the guts to tell them to go away because apart from my mum they where the only people who I found easy to talk to so I let them tag along with me . Especially Justin I have never felt so happy being around someone I really don't know what this feeling is . So here I am after school walking home with Justin and his friends .So Alex do you know who we are ? Justin asked ?Who you are I thought you guys have already introduce yourself I laughed thinking it was a joke but they were not laughing .I looked at them cautiously I was about to run when Justin said we are from your home world Alex. We are here to take you back His highness is waiting for you and we have to go now immediately he said this he held my hand and started dragging me I started screaming but it was as if no one could hear me I felt so angry , my body started heating up I felt energy coursing through me and suddenly I was on fire .My whole body was ingulfed in flames Justin was surprised and he let my hand go it did not look like he was burnt but I did not stick around to find out I ran home as fast as I could immediately I reached home I jammed the door behind me . I was met with my mother's wide eyes looking at me strangely she walked over to me gently as if I was an injured animal who was about to run away it was then I noticed the note behind her .Mum what's that I asked hoping to stop her from asking questions nothing sweetie let's eat dinner is ready she said . Sweetie did anything interesting happen today in school she asked I just decided to answer her but not tell her everything .I guess so some new students came to school today .My mum eyes opened wide she looked as if she just saw a ghost she stood up immediately and went to close the house door just as she was walking over to the door someone opened it and came in Justin and his crew he were smiling at my mum .Miss Wilson how are you? Justin asked I ran to my mum immediately and asked mum how does this guy know you .Is nothing sweetie just go to your room ok she answered no mum I won't I want to know what is happening right now today has been the weirdest day of my life now call me crazy mum but I think you know exactly what is happening . My mum took a deep breath and turned to talk to Justin ignoring me What do you want ? she asked him . You know exactly what we are here for you received the letter from the King didn't you ? The King wants he daughter and we are here to get her. You can't have her she is mine my mum replied. miss Wilson remember that you signed a contract at the mention of the contract my mum lowered her head she then turned and looked at me and whispered am sorry sweetie I saw tears in her eyes but before I could speak Justin said let's Alex we can't keep the King waiting as he was about to grab me mum spoke up please give me some time with her I want to say a proper goodbye at that Justin and his team walked out of the house and closed the door my mum walked towards the cushion and sat on it she tapped the place close to her I went over sat down close to her .She started speaking sweetie before I tell you everything you have to know that I love you I loved u from the first time I found out I was pregnant and I will always love you .And am so so sorry then she started telling me her story when I was 18 my family had a car accident on their way to my graduation ceremony and they died at that time my dad had not yet signed his will so my dad's siblings took away everything from me and left me on the streets with nothing I did not have money so I could not afford a lawyer I tired looking for a job with my highschool qualifications but luck was not on my side I survived by begging and eating food from the garbage bin for two years just when I was giving up and thinking about killing myself I saw an ad on a newspaper it said that they were looking for breeders and that if you become one you will never lack I was so tired and hungry I did not think things through I went to were the ad said I should go when I went I was told to go In to a room there I saw other women most of them were youngsters like me.

After some minutes of waiting an announcement was made and a man came walking in according to the announcement this man was some sort of king . I was young and naive I did not really know what I was getting my self into. The man began to speak and let me tell you there was nothing normal about his voice it held so much power , most of the women there couldn't bare it they were shaking like leaves but he continued talking he first of all welcomed us .
