My clothes were very uncomfortable. I wore a black sweatshirt that was my Dad's. I wore some ripped jeans that my Dad bought me 2 years ago. I also wore some of my sisters pink tennis shoes. I usually wore pajamas my whole life. Once in a while I would wear some jeans and my Dad's long T-shirts. I never wore shoes. We were the only ones in our whole family. Everyone else had died. Including Mom.
I kissed My sister on top of her head and my Father gave me a huge hug. I walked outside in the cornfield and crossed the farm. I was at the road by now. The only time I've ever been at the road was when my father got the groceries. I stood there for a while. Once it had been 5 minutes a girl came out of no where. She came from the left of me. She had long black hair with brown streaks in it. She had big green eyes. Like the color of our pond. She wore a long pink sundress. She wore cowboy boots with it. They had golden spurs on the back. She looked like a rich snob. My daddy always used to say Rich people like her can be nice rarely. "Hello Im Jazzmin" She said in a sweet voice. Her skin was tan like she sun tanned for ever. Like she had been outside her whole life. " Hi im Allison. People call me Ally, Alli Bear, or Al. I said. I had a wierd tone in my voice. I've never had before. Like i was trying. Trying to be better. My heart hurt. My eyes felt dry. I turned away. She looked at me like she was confused. " Are you alright Ally?" Jazzmin said in a confused voice. Her face was laced with confusion. SHe twiddled her thumbs. "I-I-Im Fine." I studderd. We both heard a rumbling down the road. A Yellow Old Creaking Bus came rumbling and trying to stay on the right lane, coming right at us. It stopped before it could hit us. The ugly old dirty doors creaked open leaving us to get on it. "Get in you o'l Maggots." Said a voice coming from inside. As we walked on I was following Jazmin. " Whats you name, Pink Dress?" An old man with smelly clothes and tattoos all over his face and body and legs. "Jazzmin Marie" She said in a sweet voice. "Get away" The old man said. Jazzmin walked all the way to the back of the old bus. Nobody was on it. As I was looking around I stared right back into the man's eyes. He glared at me with horror. "What are you"? He said in a disgusted voice. " Um-Um Well I'm Allison." I said in a studdered voice. "Go away" He said. I went to the back where Jazzmin was sitting and she looked at me in horror. "This is creepy" She said. Her face really did look scared to death. " I know but it will be alright" I said trying to sound tough. But really I felt creeped out, Just like Jazzmin.
Chapter 6 -High School-The Bus had gotton to the school without wrecking. The bus swayed side to side the whole ride to school. I felt very dizzy like I was going to fall down. It looked like Jazzmin was a bit green too. People out the window were looking at us. They were scanning the bus in fear of what was inside.The only ones on here was Me and Jazzmin. We went to the doors and walked outside. My eyes were amazed by all these people. One girl had a sundress on. One boy was holding her hand. I walked up them and asked "Are you guys married"? I felt so confused and embarrased. "Leave us alone you creep" The boy said. They walked away still holding hands. I stood alone outside by the tree. Out of the corner of my eye I saw Jazzmin coming towards me. Her hair was flowing through the wind. She was so beautiful. She came up to me and said "Are alright Ally.? I have a question. Do you want to be friends?"She looked at me then slightly smiled. " I um-um" I paused for a moment. " Sure." I said then smiled. A gust of wind came out of no where the blew my bag away. I ran to go catch it. I stopped. Mom? It's Mom. I turned and looked toward Jazzmin. No one was outside. The wind was blowing. Blow. Stop Blowing. Blow. Stop Blowing. I saw Moms face in the clouds. "Mom! I yelled. Mom! I love you." Her face dissapeared. I turned around. People were everywhere. Standing around me. Laughing. Yelling "Mommy!!! Haha. Mommy please come to me." The whined mimicking me. I ran inside of High School and went in the bathroom. I stood in the stall crying. This is High School. This is People of High School. Jazzmin came into the bathroom. "Hey um.. are you alright"? She said with a convincing voice." Go Away!" I screamed. The day was not even half way over.
Chapter 7 -Big News-The Bus had dropped Me and Jazzmin off. Jazzmin said before she had walked away "Goodbye Allison". She waved the walked away. I turned around and yelled "Goodby..." My voice stopped. I turned foward and walked home.
Dad was making dinner. For the first time Mom had died. He was making some vegetables we had gotton from our garden. Broccoli, Carrots and Spinach. I asked him what he was doing."Dad? What are you doing." I asked in a sweet voice trying to sound like Jazzmin. He jumped when he heard my voice."Honey.I um-um" Dad choaked on his words. " Thats so sweet to be making dinner for me and Anna". I said smileing. Dad shook his head. "Honey its just that" Dad stopped. "That what? Dad what's going on"? I said trying to make him think that I was worried. Really I wasn't. He stopped mashing the potatoes and sat down at the dinner table. In Mom's seat. His face looked worried. "Honey I have something to tell you". He said. I sat down next to him. In Dad's usual chair. "Honey I found a Woman. That I really love. I want to go far in life with her. Her name is Isabelle. She has 1 little girl of her own. I met her at the grocery store. We are going to get married soon. But tonight she wants to meet you kids and have dinner with me.
My eyes looked like huge baseballs. My eyes teared up. I pounded the table hard with my fist. My Heart pounded just like my fist. I flipped the table dad was sitting at.I screamed like a chimpanzee. I ran upstairs to my bedroom. I cryed. Into my pillow. I kicked my bed. My toe slammed into my bed like a hard nail. I looked at my toe and it was bloody. Its nail had came off and it was on the carpet. I had punched my pillow and went into the bathroom. I calmed myself down by taking a cold bubble bath. I took my towel and looked into the mirror. My face was red. I looked out the window. I needed a glass of water because whatever I saw was wrong. My heart was pounding. I made an ice glass water and went back up to my bedroom. I saw my Dad outside by a blue Jeep. I went backwards down the stairs not keeping one eye off the Jeep. I saw a woman next to it. Brown Hair. Big Brown Eyes. Just like Mom's. She was holding a little girls hand. Talking to my Father. They were both smiling. Her hair was down to her waist. The little girl had Brown curly lock hair. She looked about 7. She had light blue eyes. Just like Dad's. I felt a tear drip down my Face. I thought about Mom watching down on Dad and cursing him with the name of God. But really, she was probably happy for him. Just like I should be.
Chapter 8 -Meeting Her-I Looked at her outfit. Rich. She wore a gold sparkly sweater and blue jeans. Skinny Blue Jeans. No Mud on them. Nothing. Her Makeup was perfectly decorated and finely lined up. Her teeth were Bright and White. Isabelle was beautiful. She looked like a sweet woman. Very Organized and Very Prissy. But she still looked nice. They both turned toward the house. Dad put his hand toward the house, like he was showing her the way. She walked right by him and put her arm out. She held my Dad's hand! I ran up to my bedroom so she wouldn't see me. I could here the talking from outside. I looked out my window. The little girl saw me and tapped her mom and pointed to me. Isabelle looked at me and I ducked down as fast I could. I could hear her tell my Dad that she saw me looking at them. Then they came inside Dad yelled. "Allliiisooon!" Then He yelled. "Aaaannnnnaa"! . Anna walked out her door and went downstairs. "Hello Anna. I'm Isabelle. Im dating your father". Anna said "Hi Mom." Isabelle and Dad both laughed. "Dating your Father" Sunk into my head like a cookie dropped in milk. What did Anna say?! "Mom?".... I ran downstairs in the living room, where they were all sitting, and I grabbed Anna by the arm. I ran upstairs with her. Tugging by her, I looked back at Isabelle before we reached the top of the stairs. She
