Chapter 37
I looked at myself the second time in the mirror which was hanged next tho the sink of my bathroom..then smiled, am so proud of myself even if I don't get noticed in school or I get picked at by the bad girls.. it didn't make much of a chance to me..well that's me Toniamen Abby..but my friends call me Tonia and by friends I mean Alexa and Brad .Alexa has been my best friend since childhood while Brad was my cousin ..he's really cute but he focuses more on his studies than any thing else,even if am not popular at school am just happy I have these two friends that would always have my back .i glanced at my reflection just one more time and picked up a hair band then packed up my hair in high ponytail,I put on my glasses..you might want to know why I use glasses , it's just so I wouldn't get noticed. I think I like it better living in the shadows
" Tonia hurry up ..ur gonna be late for school" .my dad called from downstairs
"Alright dad I'll be there in a sec". I said picking up my bag . I hurried downstairs cause my dad had a kind of temper I didn't wanna piss him off . I grabbed my lunch box and entered the car while my dad drove you might want to know about my mum, well that's something I can't say .my dad never spoke of her he said not told me she died 2months after my birth and dat was al I live with my dad and grandma ..my life is more like a fairy tale and I don't think it's ever gonna get better
"We're here Tonia get down I have to go to work "
"Alright dad , I'll get on the bus with Alexa and Brad while coming home ..so u don't have to worry"
"Fine. See u at home"....he drove off, today is gonna be Soo boring..I walked into the school and headed for my locker...the last thing I need now is for one of those bitches to show up
"Hey Tonia ". ..alexa said from behind
"Alexa I didn't spot u sorry"
"It's okay ..am having history first class ..but I heard the teacher is sick I think I'll have a free period"
" Great for u ,well am having art class and I have to hurry like right now"
"Have u seen Brad?"
" Nope I haven't but am sure his fine , see u later Ronald I have to go"
"Alright ..I guess am alone"
"I'll join u later".....I ran off to class ,art was my best subject i didn't want to miss even the slightest word the teacher said ..I sat at my usual position but someting seemed off ,I could feel it ..I looked out of the window and saw a red haired man looking directly at me , he was putting on very funny looking clothes like that of the olden days on TV shows like legend of the seeker it looked so funny but when I looked at his eyes I felt like my skin was burning and he was penetrating into me
"Tonia u are not listening" Mrs Ronaldce screamed at me
"Sorry Mrs Ronaldce I was just a little distracted". .everyone laughed at me
"I guess she's inlove with the cars passing". I didn't need to turn back to know who made that comment caus I was sure it was Nikki the schools queen bee. It's. Not a new thing I wouldn't mind
" Tonia try to concentrate okay". Said the teacher in a convincing tone
"Okay Mrs Ronaldce". I glanced over at the window again but it was all clear he had gone away . maybe I was just exaggerating it's nothing...I tried to convince myself but deep down I knew something fishy was going on..I took your my diary and began to Draw the red haired man I saw...I remembered the dream I had few days ago in that dream I saw a handsome teenager more like my age ,his eyes was sparkle blue ,he seemed so sad like he was reaching out for me ..and I could feel his pain and more than anything..that feeling hurt

"Tonia wat d heck is up with u". I turned to look at my best friend Ronald she looked so consined and I looked around the class and found out that the class has ended and everyone had gone
"Oh my God wats the time?"
"Almost 3 u dummy". . Ronald took up my diary and glanced into it with absolute surprise
"Wat?".. I asked harshly
" U didn't tell me you were so good in sketching"
" Wat are you talking about? I didn't sketch anything" I took the diary from her and glanced at it..to my surprise I saw him..the guy from my dreams he was exactly as he was in my dream,he looked so real but I didn't draw this
"He looks so cute but why the sad face? Tonia u can't sketch a guy and put all your sorrows on him ... it's called sketch abuse"
" No u don't understand Ronald, I didn't draw this"
"U ain't making any sense Tonia" ... Ronald took the diary from me and turned to the next page she was so amazed
"Woah..I love this outfit, it's more like in the 1980s"
"What do you mean?". .I stood up and glanced at the book ."oh my god".
"Wats wit the red hair?u might as well make it pink and y in the school compound?," ..wat is going on with me?I don't remember sketching this...I quickly took the diary out from Ronald's hands and threw it into my back back
"Come on let's go ...my dad is gonna be so worried"
"Alright.. wat about Brad did u see him?" Ronald asked
" Um nope ..I'll contact him later..let's just get going " .we left the school compound to the bus it looked like wat took forever,all I wanted was to go home and get a fresh bath this is just a coincidence.. Ronald dropped off at her house first and I went later on but it was already 5pm .I sensed someone was looking at me,I turned back but nothing was there then I ran quickly to the gate opened it and banged it close
"Tonia wats wrong" . grandma was patiently waiting at the door
