CHAPTER ONE

Today it rained, a little heavier than yesterday but I don't mind because it was soothing and it helped block out unnecessary sounds and by unnecessary I mean the sound of my friends who are currently arguing about which genre of music is better pop or Rock. Melanie, Sarah, Elizabeth and Marcel the one dude who is crazy enough to be in an all girls group. These four people are the only friends I have had since I was in Kindergarten not that I was a social out cast I just naturally did not like people I could just somehow tolerate the four of them . I am the youngest of the group the four of them were born in '98 and I was born in '00 that is two years age difference and when ever you see us together you could tell I was the youngest because I had the smallest stature. They never bullied me not that they could any ways. Not that I'm stronger than them physically but I just don't let people bully me. Marcel always said I had two personalities one which is the I don't give a f*ck and the other which is a omg I am an overly ripe fruit your can squeeze me without too much effort I know wired way to describe but you get the memo.

"Earth to June."

I saw Marcel starring at me with one of his brows raised

" What do you want Marcel?" I asked turning back to the manga in my hand 'One punch man' that was the name. I watched the first two seasons but the producers didn't produce the entire thing so I had to get the hard copy of the remaining.

" I have been calling you for the past 40 seconds." Huh was he counting

"yes I was counting"

" You are wired. What do you want?" I asked for the second time but this time I gave him my full attention, from the way he looked something seemed off and it bothered me a lot

"He is back June"

I didn't need any special entity to tell me who he was referring to. The one person whom none of us talked about even though we shared the same blood I hated him.

"How did you know?"

"I heard my parents talking about it this morning"

"If your parents know that means my mother already knows and she couldn't even tell me" I said a little too loud

now I noticed that the girls had stopped arguing and were looking at me with worry clearly written on their face I also noticed that the other students in the class were staring at me some with surprised expressions while some with questioning expressions. I don't blame them they have never heard me shout before. Immediately I grabbed my school back and started heading for the school exit I could hear foot steps behind me.

" Let me drive you home" I heard Marcel's voice behind me

"What about school?" I turned to look at him even though they were annoying I deeply cared for them and they knew that.

"I will cover for the both of you" Elizabeth said as she stood beside him. She was the school's head girl and being her friend gave me some kind of immunity and also we were highschool I gave her a nod as a sign of gratitude as I and Marcel went to his car.

The ride was extremely silent. I kept imagining how I would approach my mother without saying anything disrespectful or hurtful. Three minutes later we were in front of my house a white story building I noticed a black SUV on the drive way I was quick to suspect who it was and as I opened the front door and got to the living room and my suspicion was on point. When my mother noticed me she got up from her seat and walked up to me.

"What is he doing here?" I asked with anger clearly evident in my voice.

"June baby let's sit down and talk please"

"There is nothing to talk about mom" not without looking at my sperm donor who was standing behind her in his expensive looking suit, life was really treating him well for he to be dressed like that.

" You didn't even tell me I had to hear it From someone else. Where you ever going to tell me!?"

"I I I was" she said with a voice shaking

" when? And now you want me to accept him with open arms that is not going to happen" I could see tears already falling from her eyes but at the moment I just did not care.

"He is still your father"

"No he is not because even if I did have one he died eighteen years ago" with that I walked out of the house and I saw Marcel waiting for me. I got into his car he drive us straight to his house his mother was waiting for us at the front door, she looked worried the moment I came out of the car she came to us giving me a very tight hug I hugged her back because she was like my second mom she took me to the room I always occupied when ever I came to their house. Marcel and I were the closest because our mothers were best friends from high school. I climbed the bed and closed my eyes for sleep to take over me. Boy was I wrong the sleep never came at all I was still tossing on the bed. I got up to change my school uniform into huge T shirt and shorts then I went down the kitchen to get something to eat, as I got closer I heard Marcel's mom on the phone

"don't worry Mira she is fine she is here"

"mmmmmmmmm" I couldn't hear what my mother was saying

"you can't blame her you never told her what did you expect"

"Mmmmmmm"

"Mira I remembered warning you about not telling her about it now look where it landed you"

"Mmmmmm"

"No she is not. she is up stairs sleeping"

"Mmmmmm"

"No don't tomorrow is Friday let her skip School then she will come home on Saturday"

"mmm"

"Don't think too much about it" as I was about to walk up the stairs

"I saw you June" I walked done the stairs to meet her in the kitchen. She places a bowl of cornflakes, I took it and said a small that thank you.

"Your mother is worried" she said with a sigh

"She should"

"Come on June don't do this to her"

" I'm not mad at her" I said dropping my spoon

"I am actually mad at him for coming all of a sudden we were doing just fine before he came so I don't know what he wants now but I don't need him I was totally fine I still am"

"oh my little June stubborn like her mother. Nobody will force you to accept him all we want is for you to talk to you mother okay"

"I will try"

"I'm going to bed" she patted my head and went up the stairs

I finished my food quickly. I ran straight to my room to get a shot eye and that I did.
