Being Alive

It was last day of summer. Last day of holidays and last day of freedom. Yeah, I love holidays, because that's when i can do whatever i want and just don't care about school and homework. But I was so depressed, because I have to go to school tomorrow and I just want to have fun with my best friends and my brother Lincoln, I call him Linc. We were spending our last day on the beach, it was 2 hours away from our home.The waves were hitting the shore, the sun was shinning brightly and the day seemed calm. The only place that could help me escape from my problems was the ocean. I was a very lonely person from the childhood, but then Mia and Jeremy appeared in the picture. My heart was still limited though. They were the only people who found a key to my cold heart. I may say that I'm a pessimistic person. I laugh probably 2 times a day and only with my friends and brother. I don't know why they are talking with me in the first place, but maybe they are the ones who truly unders

 When all the lessons ended, I went out of the school and saw Mia and Jeremy talking. I went to them. It was the first day of the autumn and it wasn’t cold, but it was very hot. Like it was still summer going on.“Guys!” I said and they stopped talking to look at me.“Are you going home?” Jeremy asked.“Yeah, I should find Linc at first. He is my ride, as always. Have you seen him?” I asked, looking around to find my brother.“I think I saw him going somewhere with Raf and Dylan,”  Mia stated. I rolled my eyes. “Why is he hanging out with such idiots?” I complained and went searching for Lincoln. I went to the field, where he was always playing football. The grass was perfectly cut as always. There were some people standing and some of them sitting in the bleachers. I saw my brother standing with Raffael and Dylan. He was laughing, while Raf

I was at home. I had some time before my shift started. Yeah, I was working sometimes. But I didn’t spend any of these money on me. I earned money, so that I could go to some toy shop and buy toys for orphans. I think they really didn’t deserve being without everything that I had. They are the same as me, probably better but they don’t have as much as I had, only because they are alone. Also I was buying some food for abandoned dogs and cats. Every week I was going to orphanage and shelter. I decided to read a book. Whnever I had some pastime, I spent long hours, indulging myself with a gripping, thoroughly absorbing book. I think it’s because I liked forgetting about my life and just being in someone’s other one. It’s like the only escape for me. I liked doing different things so that I could forget about my problems. But somehow it was always coming to me back like waves. It was already time for my shift. I quickly took m

I was sleeping, when I heard some noises. I really wanted to ignore them, but they started getting louder every second. I couldn’t stay asleep so I woke up. I looked around, but couldn’t see anything properly, because it was dark and I was still sleepy. I scrunched my eyes and opened them widely. “Why?” I heard someone saying. “Who is it?” I asked frightened. But I couldn’t hear nor see anything. Damn, I am seeing ghosts now. Great. I closed my eyes and put my head down to continue sleeping.“Kylie, I’m hurt!” I heard a familiar voice whispering. I opened my eyes and looked around again. My heart was beating like crazy. I was really scared.“Who is here?” I asked, switching on my lamp. “Kylie, help me!” I heard the same voice again. I tried to recollect whose voice it was.“Jeremy?” I

The first period finished and I quickly left the classroom to meet Jeremy and Mia before the second period would start. I got to the lockers to put the book in my locker. Next period was Physical Education. Mia and Jeremy would be there. I went to the locker-room to put on my sport clothes. I met Mia there. We got ready and went to the field. Mr. Peters said that we should start running. I haven’t seen Jeremy anywhere.“Where is Jeremy?” I whispered to Mia. She shrugged and we continued running.“What happened? Are you keeping something from me?” she asked suspiciously. “No! Relax, we aren’t keeping anything from you. I’m just...curious!” I said with a soft smile.She looked at me and turned around. I sighed. Thank God, she didn’t start interrogating. “Hey, Walker!” Raf suddenly came out from nowhere and screamed. “Hi,” I said mat
