The Jacket rough draft

But I found a new cool jacket in my bedroom closet. My confidence lead me to better grades and attitude. Better reputation or so I thought. I thought that the play ground terrorist will respect me more. I wouldn’t have been messing around with the dog if I would’ve liked the jacket. When I saw the ugly jacket he straight away hoped it was for my stupid brother. My mom yelled from the kitchen that my jacket was in the closet, so I flew to

So I went outside and hopped onto the fence to stare at the valley, then I hopped back down to play with my dog and before I knew it my dog had ripped a tear into it and just like that the jacket was ruined. So I was somewhat happy but what I had forgotten was that I had to go to school with that ugly jacket, because mom didn’t want me ruining it the first week. So I did and before I knew it, my friends were making fun of me, or so I thought. Even the nice girls wouldn’t talk to me, but that’s maybe not the reason. So maybe I should try and play something to get my mind off it, but what I knew was the jacket was still on and it would stay on for the rest of the week. But with a bunch of anger he knew in his head that he had another jacket after all. That other jacket was so nice that he couldn’t stop thinking of it, his teacher had to wake him up from daydreaming so much. But then just like that the week was over and he rushed home, threw on the jacket and right away, faster than a cheetah he flew out the front door off to school, and straight away when he got to school, he became the most popular kid

My classmates are hunched over their spelling tests, ready to spell adjective words. I’m invisible. Most people would say that’s a lie. They’d say that I’m not invisible because they can see me as plain as day, but most people are wrong. It’s not my skin that makes me invisible. It’s my silence. My silence and the trick I do with my eyes where I never look anybody in the face. I’ve been invisible for two years now. I promised myself that I’ll never use my words again, the words that could save my brother Pete from the accident that results my brother to Carbon Monoxide poisoning. I don’t care about the spelling bee. I walked down the hall and went into the school library. I grab one Nancy Drew book from one of the shelves. I walk to the cottonwood…

    Once upon a time I was blessed with a beautiful rare red horse. The reason I got it was because it was my 16th birthday. The horse was so special because not only was it red, but it also talked. I named him Billy, because he said ‘’ I want my name to be Billy’’. I always took Billy out for walks and sometimes he took me for walks. What made Billy even more special was that he could fly. One time when I was walking with Billy, another kid from down the street was walking his horse. The kid with the horse told Billy and I that we are stupid, so Billy started to cry. I felt bad because I didn’t know what to do, so under pressure I did what any kid who is getting bullied would do. I told Billy to fly away, and we ended up in a magical place named Chicago. We crashed at a motel downtown.…

    I threw my books on the bed and approached the jacket slowly, as if it were a long lost brother who I had been dreaming about meeting. I touched the smooth leather sleeve, the popped collar, and stared at the brown leather lining in disbelief. My mom’s voice echos through the house, “Your jackets in the closet” My heart sinks as my mother’s words process in my brain and as I slowly walk to the closet where soon I’ll find the jacket that actually belongs to me. I rummaged through the small space hoping that there is not another jacket to be seen and luckily, there wasn’t.…

    As my mom drove her car to school, she spoke encouraging words to me. As soon as we arrived at school, my hands felt clammy. My mind raced so much that I could not think about anything else but how school would be like. I slowly walked toward the two massive school doors squeezing my mother's hand. My body screamed inside as I entered the school premises with my mother and older brother. My mind raved with many thoughts as of how I was going to make friends, or if the teacher was going to be mean and cruel. I lacked confidence of how I was going to do on that day.…
