PROLOGUE
I was sitting on the bench and staring at the kids. They were begging
their parents not then in the school.
One boy out of all other kids caught my attention. He wasn't crying
like other kids, he had a beautiful smile on his face while he was
staring at his parents with the twinkle in his blue eyes. His hairs
were blonde mix with brown a weird combination but he was looking
handsome in them. His rosy chubby cheeks almost made me got up from
the bench and kiss them. I held myself back by curling my fingers
around the base of bench.
His mischievous blue eyes was shining looking at the ground with full
of surprise like it's the unique thing he have ever seen.
I saw his mother kneeling down and kissing his temple making me wish
to have a family like his. His dad also kneel down and said something
to him at which he nodded his head excitedly.
He waived his hand and said bye to his parents. The teacher came and took him.
I thought, How would it be if my mom and dad drop me off on my first
day of kindergarten instead of aunt Emma. She just left me on the
school ground and told me to follow other students. But I feel scared
to go inside all alone and meet strange kids, the kids who knows
nothing about me. Will they hurt me like Delia? I hope not because
it's a good day.
I got up from the bench and made my way inside the class. Everyone was
looking at each other like they've just seen aliens. Rolling my eyes I
went to sit on the back chairs and that's when my eyes landed on a
same boy who I've seen outside.
He was looking left and right to find a seat. I wished that he'll
choose the empty seat beside me but he sat beside another girl two
rows away from me. Disappointment engulfed me when he started talking
to the girl. She smiled shyly at whatever he was saying.
Jealousy strike my heart that was a complete foreign feeling for me. I
glanced at them again. The girl was beautiful with blue eyes like him
but little darker. Her face looked soft and her hairs white blonde.
She was dressed in a cute pink jacket with some jeans making me
dislike her more at the choice of "Pink" color. I don't like pink at
all.
The teacher entered in the class and made us all introduce ourselves.I
got his name because of whole introduction thingy. His name is
"Brandon" perfect for his charming personality. He said that he's five
years old, love ice cream and football instantly making me like him
more.Because I love football too. My dad and I used to play football
every weekend.
A girly voice blubbering pulled me out of my thoughts making me see
who it belongs. The white blonde girl got up from the chair standing
in a straight posture, she started telling class about herself. She
was saying that her name is "Laura" and that her favorite color is
pink. I snorted at her boring introduction but all the boys in the
class looks quite interested in her little foolish speech.
Finally, it was my turn to rant about myself. Taking a deep breath I
started by telling my name "Madeline". I didn't receive anyone's
attention in the class. Everyone ignored me making me feel extremely
uncomfortable. The nervousness started seeping in my body and making
it impossible for me to continue my introduction.
I glanced around to seek some kind of attention from other kids but my
eyes landed on Brandon. He has turned around to look at me as I was
sitting at the back. He has a beautiful smile on his face and his eyes
were staring at me, waiting for me to continue my introduction.
A small smile appeared on my own lips and I felt confident. As I
started speaking my eyes focused only on Brandon, it felt like he was
the only one in the class with me. I told him that I'll be turning
five after two months. I love reading stories and my favorite food is
pizza. Then I told him that I love playing football.
When he heard that I love playing football his smile widened. Finally,
my little speech ended and teacher started distributing books.
Taking my books from her I wrote my name on it. I know how to write
and read because my mother taught me a lot of things at very young
age.
I miss my mother, aunt Emma is nothing like my mom and she could never
be like her.
Two hours passed learning the same things that I already knew. Then
finally teacher permitted us to have some lunch. Kids hurriedly
started digging in their bags retrieving their lunch boxes out of
their bags while I just stared at them because I had nothing to eat.
I glanced at Brandon who was probably asking Laura to share his lunch
with him. She glared at Brandon making me narrow my eyes at her
actions.
Suddenly, Brandon leaned towards her and kissed her on the lips. I
gasped at his action as well as the whole class. Laura started crying
in her shrill voice making me cringe.
Brandon face become sad at her response. He looked baffled like he
doesn't understand what was wrong with her.
That day my heart broke. The first boy that I have ever liked just
kissed the other girl in front of my eyes. Now there is no way that my
broken heart can be mend again.
Or
Is there any possible way to mend my heart again?
