Novel & Cerita This Is Ridiculous

“This is a weird thing to shake.” “What about this isn’t weird?”

All because of this messed up situation. How did I end up like this? It makes no sense. --------------------

This is just a sick joke. It has to be. It has to be my brain misfiring because I lost too much blood or because I hit my head too hard or because I am actually dying and this is my punishment for every bad thing I have ever done in my life because there is no other explanation that makes sense right now.

The fact that such things were still even a thing and that children were getting killed simply because of the day they were born was absolutely ridiculous to her and she could not just fathom it. "Honestly, I can only think of one word to describe everything you just said to me and that word has to be 'ridiculous!' I mean, who in their right minds still kills babies because of stupid, ridiculous myths and why would the council even think of trying to rope you into something like that knowing very well that you are still very inexperienced with any of this? Are they even sane at all?" Isabel hissed.

I’m a walking contradiction. I’m totally fucked up.

Stupid fools! ***

"Not now." "Ava, you need to see this right now." Mia held out her phone. It was the school's anonymous gossip account, the one that posted screenshots and commentary and occasionally video, and it had already posted about the exchange, a ten-second clip someone had filmed from the bleachers, Mason's voice clear and sharp: *You're just so afraid of being ordinary that you've made yourself impossible to be around.* The caption read: *THE WAR CONTINUES. Round three goes to Reed??? Comment your scores.*

Just the frantic rise and fall of my own chest. “This isn’t funny,” I said, louder. “If this is some… some experimental therapy, or a YouTube social experiment—” No camera. No crew. No exit door but the one that led back out into the white nothing. Grief, shock, fury, sheer *ridiculousness* of it all welled up at once.

This can't be happening. This can't be real!

it was all for THIS? A freaking lullaby? Seriously?
