My bag swings on my shoulder as I run towards the school doors‚ attempting not to be noticed. Pretending not to care as people fall silent while I run past‚ my auburn hair flowing in the wind behind me. “Hey!” “Jasmine!” “What went down last night?” “I heard that the police came to your house.” I listen to the miscellaneous shouts of the crowd as my heartbeat slows like a bass drum in a ballad. Someone takes hold of my hand and pulls me to face them. It’s Maya‚ quite literally

I rounded a corner‚ giving me a direct view of the gym field‚ where‚ since no one had to dress for P.E. classes that day‚ only a few people were out playing

I was so happy that we had a five day weekend‚ this week. I don’t know why I felt like this week went by slow. We got our first progress reports on Wednesday and I wasn’t extremely happy with my grades. Upperclassmen would always tell us that senior year would be the most relaxed year of our four high school years‚ but honestly it does not seem like it. It’s not that the subjects that are hard‚ its keeping up with every class and the assignments. The thing that i am stressed about is processing all

The Day Just Like Any Other Day It was a beautiful afternoon. The spring breeze was crisp and the bright green leaves swayed gently in the treetops. The sun hung high in the sky warming my face as I waited for the bus to take my brother and me home from school. Every blade of grass and newly bloomed flower was indicative of new life; the changing of seasons. We boarded the bus with all of the other kids just like we had so many times before. Everything about this day seemed so much like any other
