Chapter One: Visions In Your Head
"Okay,okay class.Enough with the after-spring-break-chitchat"
I walked in a noisy class but as soon as they saw me,they shut up. Everyone was giving me that look you obviously get when you're the new kid. I didn't like it.
"So class. Ladies and. gentlemen this is our new student all the way from...You can introduce yourself.."
I was hesitant to introduce myself, it's something I wasn't used to.
"Umm...My name's Trinity.... Trinity Falls."
I went to take my seat only to be stopped by the teacher.
"I suppose they'd like to know you more."
"I...I come from Czechoslovakia"
"Where the hell is that,Mars?" A blonde girl interrupted.
"It's Czech Republic next to Germany and Poland. It'd be easier to understand if you just pay attention to what's being taught." A boy in a ponytail backed me up.
"Well... that's a good one Mr.Torres"
At four, I had to wait for Coco outside the school. He took long but I couldn't leave without him.
"You're late," I said already walking
"I'm sorry"
"That won't bring back the fifteen minutes you wasted"
We got home only to find the breakfast dishes undone. I suppose father was in a hurry to have left them at the sink. I did the dishes,did my homework and helped Coco with his. I started mediating in my room at 6:30, something I do to put my gifts in balance with my body and mind.. But today..Today was different.. A cold feeling sipping through my body like a vampire running his cold hands on my body.
"Hey" I heard a voice calling from afar with a blurry vision.
"Hey" "Hey Trinity" and suddenly I inhaled, a deep breath like I had been deprived of air.
"Here, have some " father handed me a glass full of chilled water. He had my dinner on a plate which he placed on my bedside table.
"Coco?"
"He's watching TV but still can hear"
"Trvalo mi to dlouho, že?" I switched to speaking Czech because it wasn't something for Coco to hear..
"co jsi viděl?" father asked as I bit my fries.
Ever since mum left, we never had real food apart from lunch at school. The house had no groceries, just some cartoons of almond milk,some eggs and flour. Father made us survive from eating fast foods.
"vaše... vaše oči.."
"co?"I could feel his emotions, he was worried and afraid.
"tvoje oči byly úplně bílé"
I chuckled "Nebyl jsem tady. Bylo to nějaké místo Rashford...prostě jiný"
