Erica: Get out of here now!

I screamed, I could feel my throat burning. My voice rose from the depths of my lungs and as a Tingling spread all over my body. The power of my phrase being so great that it became what all of me anxiously yelled.
The monster to disappear, to leave now, to no longer exist. He took a step backwards
Inadvertently, as if he received a push from my hand, a kick from my leg, as I accepted from him.

The Elevator

Gymnast: I want you to give your best, you are all guys with very good prospects and abilities. 


So we started to follow the exercises he indicated to us. I made a slightly more careless move, causing me to run into Jianna without hurting her in the slightest. 


Gianna: Anyone who is not good enough stays at home.. Ok. 


She was testing my patience, but I'm not going to do her a favor and give in. 


Gianna: Freak, do you think we haven't heard of you? The whole school knows you live in an elevator! 


Along with her words, she unleashed a wave of wickedness invisible to the naked eye. 


I showed her the necessary gratitude with my gaze. I'm not used to being defended. 


Elena: Just know.. don't pay too much attention to her, she's kind of weird. 


Her words barely came out like a hair of steam from her chapped lips. 


================================================================================ 


After the end, I made sure I got home as soon as I could. It's a good thing it wasn't far away since I was already terrified of the darkness that dominated the streets. I was back in the safe and bright chamber again. 


Not wasting time, I got into my books, maybe tomorrow they'd put us an unannounced test in the Ancients. Focused as I was, I was completely indifferent to the new addition in my environment. Mr. Jason, Nadia's father, was taking us down to the ground floor. 


I didn't even look at him, but he didn't seem bothered by my presence in the room either. Instead, with excess comfort, he ignored me and continued his conversation on his cell phone. 


Jason: Yes, Mother, don't worry, I'm already on my way. 


The tone in his voice was so restless, he didn't need anything else to pique my interest. 


Jason: Yes, of course! Orpheus will surely be very happy... It's all going to be like we said. 


I turned the page on the book I was holding without really finishing with the previous one, I kept looking at it blankly while eavesdropping. 


The door opened and he left, I imprinted its form in my memory. Bathed in sweat. Nervously folding the sleeves of his shirt. Did mommy really make him so nervous?I wonder why he's getting ready... It's going to be investigated. 


I turned the page back and blocked the inconspicuous thoughts. I could be a big gossiper from time to time. To acknowledge it, it must be one of my main characteristics.But I don't have much of a choice. Maybe this was my escape to the outside world... Maybe just a weak excuse. 


Anyway, I've read enough, let's go get ready for bed. I'm thinking and getting up to do my routine that made me sweat nervously worse than Mr. Jason before.


Freak!
