3:20 pm The bell to get out of school rings. Finally. Why do days have to be so long, I can’t wait to get home so I relax on the couch and watch T.V. I walk to the gate where I wait for my sister so we can walk home together. Kendall comes out. “Are you ready to go,” I ask her. She nods. 3:30 pm We are about halfway home when I hear a strange noise coming from behind me. I turn around to find nothing. “Kendall, did you hear that noise.” “No, it was probably the wind or something.” “Ya, you’re probably right. It was nothing,” I respond still a little unsure. We walk home in complete silence. 3:35 pm We walked into the front door just as mom was pulling into the garage. “How was your day girls,” she asked in a cheery voice. “Just great,” I answered. Which wasn’t true because I got my math test back and I got 20 out of 30. To top that off I found out I had a major history test tomorrow and I know nothing about what we're learning. I ran upstairs so I could start watching Netflix. 6:00 pm Mom called me for dinner. I realized that I spent this whole time watching T.V and I hadn’t studied or done any homework. I promised myself I would do it right after dinner. 6:22 pm …show more content…
“Mom, Kendall. Do you guys hear that noise that came from outside.” “No honey.” “Again? You're hearing things. This is the second time your hearing these random sounds. No one hears them beside you. Stop asking,” Kendall screams. “Fine. What’s up with you?” “My head and stomach ache. I’m probably coming down with something. Sorry, I just lashed out at you, I’m a little grumpy. Mom can I be done with dinner so I can finish my homework? I want to go to bed early.” “Sure honey. Feel better. Holler if you need anything. I love you,” mom tells her. “Thanks, mom. Love you too,” Kendall answers as she goes
When Meghan hears me enter she runs crying "Tim's teasing me and I'm hungry." I ask the kids, "Why didn't you feed her?" Tim responds, "she didn't say she was hungry." Pat runs up from the basement and reminds me I have to take him to guitar practice now or he'll be late.
“Hi Daisy”, Abby says while taking a seat across from me. At that moment, my jaw literally dropped, and my mouth went speechless and dry. “Daisy!” Mom snapped, giving me “The Look”. I quickly closed my mouth and said hi. As we spent a few minutes in awkward silence after I said hi, I sat there staring aimlessly into her face. I wasn’t trying to be rude but she w...
Because of some of the circumstances that make me who I am, it is hard to say I have any one definitive home. Instead, I have had two true homes, ever since I was a young child. What makes this even more of a conundrum is that my homes have always had little in common, even though they are only a few hundred miles apart. Between the big city of Houston, Texas, and the small town of Burns Flat, Oklahoma, I have grown up in two very different towns that relate to one another only in the sense that they have both raised me.
Finally, it’s June 3rd. Laura is going to be graduating from Silas University today with her whole family present. With Carmilla still in Toronto, Laura couldn’t wait to see her girlfriend after not being around her for a month. School kept Laura busy, while Carmilla had to deal with work. They’ve had skype dates and Carmilla even managed to help Laura with some homework over the webcam. Finally, she gets to see her girlfriend face to face and she couldn’t be happier. Carmilla apologized most of the time for being busy, Laura felt the same since she had to work extra hard just to make sure she could graduate with honors. She is and she couldn't be happier.
She walks up the stairs. The house is very noisy. The music is so loud that the floor vibrates. The smoke alarm is off and the little girl is coughing and sneezing. The living room looks cloudy. “What’s burning? What is up? Whose jacket is this?” Linette asks hanging her bag. “What has come over my son, God?” She asks rhetorically looking up the ceiling. “Didn’t we discuss this before I left for Dubai?” Linette asks Brian, her eldest son who is slowly becoming a drug addict. “What are you up to this time round? What are you smoking, my dear…pot?” Linette asks as she bends to pick pieces of what looks like packaging manila. “Oh my goodness!” She pauses. “Look at what you are doing to your sister. Can’t you spare her at least?” Linette wonders as she stretches her arms to pick up Kimberly, her youngest daughter. “Mom…” Kimberly utters. “I miss you!” Kimberly says as she reaches her mother’s ears. “I know ma’am! I am back and I missed you too. How are you?” Linette asks as she looks into her daughter’s eyes. “I am hungry. I ate lunch, though!” Kimberly
“SOPHIE! SOPHIE!”I heard a voice calling me as I woke up hazily. Looking around, I realized it was my mom calling me. She was shaking me awake as she giggled, “I told you that you should’ve taken a nap! Now, go along, finish your homework.”
“I’m not thankful for anything”, says Mark, “I’m mad I had to get up early, I don’t want all these people over, I hate thanksgiving!” Everyone just goes back to eating, Mark’s mother tries to talk to him. “Why are you being so moody? Why can’t you be joyful on the day of your family coming together? “Mom!”, says Mark, “why do all the uncles and cousins have to come over? Why can’t it just be me, you and grandma?” “Your grandma loves her children too honey say his mother, I’m sorry you’re in such an agitated mood.” Mark goes to his bedroom, he doesn’t even spend the rest of the day with the family, he just goes to his bedroom, slams his door and jumps in his bed. As Mark lay in his bed with his face smothered in his pillow, blankets over his head. He thinks about how aggravated he is. Maybe I just need a nap thinks Mark to himself, he closes his eyes and goes to
I couldn’t believe this day was finally here. I would get my high school diploma and get out of this town forever. I was finally going to get the chance that I had been waiting for so many years. I was going to start a brand new life, someplace away from here, where no one knew me. As my mind was lost in plans of the future, I tuned out my surroundings, until, a loud noise snapped me out of my thoughts.
Ever since you left me, no one visits our home, except the mailman, but I do occasionally receive phone calls from my mother. I forever wish that I had died that night I was hit by your car, the day I met you. “Ring Ring”, “Yes, this is her, that’s great news, thank you, goodbye.” Jeremy, that was the doctor she called to confirm my pregnancy tests, and they were… positive. “Ahhh” I'm so excited, it’s crazy how I didn’t realize that I was four months
Mom took us to this big old house with many rooms. There were other people there too, but they are all really nice. We’ve been there for five years now. “Violet, sweetheart it’s time for bed,” mom said calmly as she climbed into bed and under the covers. “Ok mom,” I said as I got in bed.
The high pitch ring of the Vtech cordless phone filled the living room and I hear my mother answering the phone. After a few moments, of chatter, she looks at me with a surprised stare and says it’s for you. I pick up the phone, say hello, and I hear a voice introduce himself as the CEO of KB Toys. “Hi Bryan! I received your letter and I wanted to thank you for being such a fan of KB Toys” he says.
We decide to stop for today after about 5 different tests. When I went back to my dorm, I walk into my dorm and lay down cry. Kelsie asked
Once upon a time, I saw the world like I thought everyone should see it, the way I thought the world should be. I saw a place where there were endless trials, where you could try again and again, to do the things that you really meant to do. But it was Jeffy that changed all of that for me. If you break a pencil in half, no matter how much tape you try to put on it, it'll never be the same pencil again. Second chances were always second chances. No matter what you did the next time, the first time would always be there, and you could never erase that. There were so many pencils that I never meant to break, so many things I wish I had never said, wish I had never done. Most of them were small, little things, things that you could try to glue back together, and that would be good enough. Some of them were different though, when you broke the pencil, the lead inside it fell out, and broke too, so that no matter which way you tried to arrange it, they would never fit together and become whole again. Jeff would have thought so too. For he was the one that made me see what the world really was. He made the world into a fairy tale, but only where your happy endings were what you had to make, what you had to become to write the words, happily ever after. But ever since I was three, I remember wishing I knew what the real story was.
It was just another day of my life. The fourth ring of my alarm woke me up. As usual, I was not feeling to go in school. I slept a couple of more minutes.After while, the shine of the sun coming from the window woke me up.I slowly stretched my arms and slid out of bed. I brushed my teeth and took the shower. Downstair,my mother was calling me for breakfast.I was still undecided what should wear for school. After browsing for while I found something to wear,and finished getting myself ready for school. When I checked the clock, I was running late as usual, which was not a surprised. I quickly ate my half sandwich and left the rest of the sandwich on the table.I took my car key, jump in my black Lexus and made my way to school.During my way to school, I got a call from my friend John. John is my best friend since when we were in middle school. He told me that his car was broke down and he needed to ride to school. Fortunately, my friend house on my school way. I told my friend. I am on my way to pick you up from your house. As I got there, john come out from his house and jumped in my car. With sound of Drake singing and music blasting, it was a
I exited the shower shivering, the sizzling smell of mouthwatering eggs and bacon hit me. My stomach was growling to eat. I quickly ran to the kitchen and grabbed a plate and told my mom “Thank you” as I kissed her on the cheek. “You’re welcome baby” she replies as she poured me a cup of freshly squeezed orange juice. I ate as fast as I could because I didn’t want to risk being late. I go in my room and put on my socks,
