Sometimes the pain is too much; it’s overwhelming yet I don’t know how to change or make the pain go away.

Change isn’t something I’ve ever wanted until now.

I figured it wouldn’t make me happier.

Things wouldn’t be different with the kids at school, my parents or my brother and sister. So, what’s the point of changing?

There is no point. So why am I so confused on whether or not I should change who I am because of one person?

Even if that person makes me want to be a better daughter, sister, student, and maybe even human being it doesn’t mean that I should…right?

He had me thinking weird things from the start. Things that made we wonder if things could be different if I changed. And if I did, would I be worthy of the same things the rest of the world did?

He did this to me.

Not necessarily the first moment we met, but in just the short amount of time I’ve known him, he did this to me.

He pierced my soul with something stronger than the studs I have on my body. Worse than the pain of my tattoo, which my parents still don’t know that I have.

I’m somewhat unsettled, confused, and unsure but he seems to makes all that pain go away
.

I thought that if, maybe, I just didn’t see him again things would go back to normal. I mean, it isn’t like we go to the same school or anything.

But man was I wrong.

Now thanks to Zeke and Allie, I see him all the time, but I don’t think he sees me the way that I see him.

Well, at least he won’t see me that way until I change.

And what the hell good would that do?

 

A small hand with hot pink nail polish waves in front of my face. I flinch from the closeness of the swaying arm and bat my lashes. Trying to regain my focus from my blurred moment of zoning, I sit back on the stool until I can finally see clearly.

Damn it! I was fading out again.

“Zar, snap out of it. Come on back to the land of the living, space cadet,” Zoe says.

My sister’s shrill voice and inconsiderate comment begin to make my pulse race and anger rage through my veins.

“I’m not a space cadet, Zoe. I’m just really tired,” I yell in my little sister’s direction.

Getting up from the breakfast bar in the kitchen, I slam my stool against the dark wooden frame. Great! Just great! This isn’t how I planned on
starting what I feel is one of the worst days of my life
.

From the corner of my eye, I see Zoe jump from the loud bang.

If she only knew the lack of sleep I’ve dealt with over the past few days.

No one knows, let alone understands, the stress that I’ve been under before to today.

It’s been almost unbearable.

I unclench my fists, which I didn’t realize were gripped so tightly to my side and put my breakfast dishes in the sink.

“Well, I was just wondering if you’re going to give me a ride to school today,” she says in a whisper.

Shit, I probably caught her off guard. I really need to lighten up a bit; but with all of this anxiety building up about school today, I feel like I’m going to blow.

I turn to look her in the eyes and stare with a glare. I let out a quiet laugh and roll my eyes.
