My name is Natalie Howard, a high schooler, I'm 18 years old and I come from a family of four, have an elder brother who schools outside the country by scholarship, well. I have an average family, my dad works as a secretary, and my mom is a beverage store manager, I wish I was normal like everyone else, why is that? My dad calls it a curse my mom calls it a gift, this is my secret ability, my ability to read people's minds, it all started after a heart transplant when I was 6, three days after I had a heart transplant after suffering from heart disease for two years, my parents finally raised the fund for the heart transplant, and that put me into a dilemma, i was still in the hospital when it all started, the doctor was thinking I had an obvious resemblance with his dead daughter, why the nurse was thinking the doctor back ass looks sexy... I was so confused hearing their thoughts so loud, I had asked the doctor if I really look like his dead daughter, he was so surprised, he asked how I know and I told him he said it... My mom and everyone had denied him saying it, I was thrown into a complete dilemma, and mom was thinking I had ear issues, I had told her I don't even if it was from her thought, my mom had apologized to the doctor and had stayed with me asking questions. She finally figure out I was hearing people's thoughts, she had made it easier for me to differentiate between people's thoughts and voices, and she had made sure she keep it secret saying a gift like that was rare and could attract unwanted attention.

Dad had found out after I told my mom he was having an affair, I was 12, dad had said it was all a lie, my mom had look at me and I told my mom what exactly was in my dad's mind, my dad was fearing divorce, and he still love my mom, he was just playing his boss to get a raise so as to keep up with my mom in the contribution to the house, it had came as a shock to hear me say it, my brother was also amazed, Ever since then my dad has always believe I was cursed.

My talent had benefit and much disadvantage, I couldn't concentrate on my studies anymore, I couldn't have friends, and I had to transfer schools once a person discover my gift, after transferring two schools, I finally adapt to it, I had headset, music prevent people's thoughts from disturbing me, but what of in class during teaching, I use my headphone under my winter cap following only what was written but not the words it was hard coping, my mom had helped too, she had reconstruct my room to be sound proof, and make sure I'm always in human free environment, our house was restricted to human movement, and my brother had help too by stopping his friends from visiting but this happened after yelling every time people's thoughts get crowded in my head, I fainted two times because of it, the first one happen in my first school when all my classmate have different thoughts and I was hearing it all, I yelled and fainted, my mom had rush out to school clinic after she had, I had complained to her everyone was making noise, everyone present to visit me was shocked except my mom, and my brother, he had brought his friends as usual and I was working on my homework, they wouldn't stop disturbing with various thoughts, I had stomped into the sitting room and insulted them for making noise which there wasn't, they were playing scrabble, but their thoughts was so loud,

Jeremy was crushing on my brother's crush despite knowing my brother's feelings for the girl, John was so eager to beat my brother in the game, Chris was planning to steal my brother's cracker and Ethan was imagining kissing me, I had said it to their face, every single thing they were thinking, all of them at that time was calling me a psycho lunatic, and I had yelled at them for that asking them to get out, I had left my brother speechless, not because of that, but because of his friends thought, his own thought was rowdy, steal his cracker? Crushing on his crush? His mind was full of questions which were disturbing, for a 17-year-old boy he was huge and bumpy, we had that trait, I was huge too, and I was 15 at the time, my brother Nathan was a complete replica of my dad and I took after my mom, the bus stop and I felt a tap, the man's thought crowded my ears with that, yes contact make the inner voice more audible I removed my headset to look at the man, he was a pervert, he thinks I had sexy thigh, I draw down my school skirt which only stopped two inches to my knees, I draw it down, on looking at him.

"The bus has stopped," he said bringing my attention to the bus, I climbed down making my way to school, it was the first day of resumption, glad I'm now in the last year of high school.

    "Hey" I heard Alfred's voice, I couldn't have mistaken that, he was actually the person bending over to me as I slowly open my eyes, so that implies...I am still alive. That's a relief, Mr Smith will be so disappointed to think I'm dead."Hey...you're awake" Alfred asked and I nodded slowly and painfully."How long have I been out?" I drawled."Two days" Andy replied making herself noticeable at the corner she stood staring worriedly at me."That long? damn, I've missed pretty much of things. Classes, training, oh hell-"I found you very unbelievable, you've been lying down for two days and the first thing you worry about is classes?!" Nicholas exclaimed in disbelief before scoffing, leaving me embarrassed he's right, I've missed Mr Smith call for the day before, we are always communicating so I could inform him of my progress. He'll be pretty worried, Nicholas shook his

    "Hey" I greeted as I sauntered into my room and my roommates all shoot to their feet immediately."Where on earth have you been?" Andy literally yelled."I'm sorry" I apologized timidly."Well...I think you owe us all an explanation" Emily started with her face narrowed at me in question."We were worried sick about you" Andy added, her voice lace with concern."Guys...I'm fine, I just had take care something" I briefed."Well...how's your wound? I heard Nicholas whoop the ass outta ya" Emily mocked and I batted my lashes at her feeling irritated."Emily! That's painful" Andy reprimanded her with a frown on her face."I'm fine...how's Tina?" I asked recalling she wasn't feeling so well."You should worry more about yourself" I heard her mutter as she walked out of the bathroom with

    "Come on guys" I said trying to persuade Andy and Alfred to talk to me since they refuse to say anything ever since the post was decided."You screwed up" Andy snapped harshly."I'm sorry. I just think it's for the best, he's better than us-"Don't you get it. You just made him a gamma, our team leader, he has authority over us. He's in control now and you just gave him your life Ari, like that wasn't enough. If anything happen to you...we don't know what we'll do" Andy explained despondently making me feel warm from the inside, she was very sincere."I'll be careful" I promised."I'm sorry" I said with my hand on her shoulder."It's okay" she said finally and I hugged her."Alfred" I called immediately I released Andy."Come here you" he said and I hug him, together with Andy."AAAA" He said taking a selfie of

    "Where were you?" Andy asked as I came strolling down from the control building."Just...out to see someone" I replied stuttering a little."Really? I don't like the tone of that" She asked narrowing her face at me in suspicion."Trust me everything is fine" I assured reading her thoughts, she thought something was wrong. Not anyone can come to the control building."Are you sure?" She pressed."Trust me I'm cool" I said going along with her."Hey" someone called behind us indignantly and we both look back."Nich-"Was it you?" He snarled cutting me short."What?" I asked cluelessly not too sure of what he meant."This" he said showing his bandaged hand, I was quiet, I couldn't tell him I helped him treat his wounds."I wonder if you're stupid or just clueless" He e

    "I have nothing to do with what was stolen" I declared though many believed me. They still find it very hard to accept it."Andy....did you see her take it?" Mrs Georgia asked but Andy stood looking at me. She was certain she saw me but, she wasn't completely sure."Andy" Mrs Georgia called some of softly after seeing how quiet she was."I...I don't know, I can't remember" She finally answered looking at my sombre expression."Alfred" Mrs Georgia called out to Alfred."I didn't" he declared without doubt. He had a memory of seeing me though, but he just couldn't bring himself to tell them he saw me."But you both agreed you saw her closing her locker after putting some files inside. Which was found out to be exactly what we we're looking for?" Mrs Georgia asked staring at them suspiciously."I said books...not files" Alfred rephrase

    "I'm so exited about tomorrow" I said to Andy who was busy with her nails."You know what! There's so much you don't know about climbing Ariana" She voiced checking out her nails"What's there to know about? Its just climbing! "I shrugged trying to get her to explain what she meant."No...it's not just climbing, all team is ready to do anything to get that flag and that includes eliminating anyone who try stopping them" She explained while I still gave a nonchalant look because I would do anything as well."Why would they do that?" I asked not too certain what the term 'eliminate' implies."Ariana... don't mess with anybody tomorrow. Especially not the Neutrons" She advised earnestly."But...why?" I asked but she just kept quiet, from her thoughts I could sense she was deeply hurt, she had lost her friend in mountain climbing last year, they all claim she
