Emma and the Legendary book

CHAPTER THREE

I couldn't sleep a wink a last night. the Sparks kept replaying in mind.

so Mr grumpy hot and I hate each other but here is the thing when we touch their is this spark that passes through body I don't know how to explain it.

it feels weirdly good like hey this is where you are suppose to be but who am I kidding right it is just my imagination.

I put on my pink dress that my mom bought for me on my birthday. and I wear my sandals.

I like open shoes I feel comfortable walking in them rather than my feet feeling closed off.

as usual I pull my hair in a bun and take my back pack before leaving my room.

"hey good morning sweetheart how was your night."

so the thing about me is this. I have a tendency of not sleeping maybe twice or three In a week I will just be staring into space for reason and then when morning comes I will just get out of bed and move on like that and no before you ask no I don't fall asleep in the day and i don't even have those dark circles around my eyes or look like a ghost no nothing like that happens am just as energetic as everyone who slept.

"good morning, and no my night was not good I had one of those episodes today I couldn't sleep a wink."

I sigh

" oh baby I wish we knew what is happening with you then we would have given you medicine or better take you the hospital but nothing seems to work out."

yeah I wish we knew but the doctor says I don't even have insomnia or anything that would make me not to sleep at night.

" ok enough with sad talks. we will get through this ok baby." my dad says

"yeah I should also get going I need to return the books to the library before Mr Downey expels me from entering the library...bye I love you."

I bid my parents and start walking to school.

*****

"thank goodness we have returned the book to Mr Downey other wise you know he would have given us the look."

we laugh. and start searching for other books to get.

I go to the other book shelf a bit far from Chrisha and start searching.

you know this school built hundred years ago, it used to be a boy's school so it has so many old books from century ago.

I go from one book to the other none seems to interest me before I can turn and go back one book catches my attention, I have never seen it before.

it looks like the book is calling onto me and I can't seem to resist the attraction I go to it and grab the book. the moment I touch it I feel a sage of power pass through me like I just wake up. the book in my hand glows a blue light and I can't seem to look away it is terrifying as it is amusing too.

I want to throw it away but I also want to protect it and keep it safe.

the light that was glowing from it die down and my brain snaps to reality. a book can't glow like that right maybe it was just me thinking about it I don't dwell on it and take the book to Mr Downey after sometime Chrisha also comes and we heard to our first class.

We take our usual seat at the back. I like to seat at the back near the window I feel calm.

Mr grumpy hot enter the class looking at everyone I know soon his eyes will land me so I avert my gaze to the window and stare into space as if I don't feel his eyes on me.

" ok everyone I need your math book on the desk I will mark everyone before giving you an exercise."

I take out my book and open starting to look at it again to see if have perhaps made a mistake.

it seems like Mr grumpy hot is also explaining to each and every member but why does it feel like he wants to come to soon. the way his eyes keeps coming back to me is giving chills.

before I can look away our eyes lock in an none conversation making my heart skip three beats, I could swear I saw him shutting his eyes for a brief moment. I look back on my book and keep myself busy.

me and Chrisha are the last one, after he marks Chrisha, he sent her to get something in his office.

"your book Ms Martin."

he sit down on the chair that Chrisha was seating on and take my book.

he marks all the questions but before he can give me the books he spoke in a low whisper.

"I don't know what you do to me but I intend to find out one way or the other because it is causing me sleepless nights."

he says making sure nobody heard him. I feel my heart ripe in my chest making me gasp holding onto my chest.

*****

What Mr grumpy hot says kept replaying in mind what am I doing to him that he is having sleepless nights can he also feel the sparks like I do, does he feel the connection and attraction like I do.

I toss my bag on the bed and lay down today feels strange I don't know why but it seems their is some shift in the air like something is going to happen.

I take off my sandals and lay again other bed shutting my eyes.

" hello Emma, it nice to meet you."

I open my eyes in an instant, the voice sounds foreign or should say ancient, the voice has a charm to it.

I sit up and look around me, my parents are yet to come from work so a little fear slip it's way into my heart Making it beat like a drum.

I move to the door to open but the next thing I see leaves stuck and shock.
