Drowsy morning

Jeneya's POV

I fought the urge to sleep in and get up for another day . Last night I barely get any sleep, I was so excited and kept making scenarios in my head. When I finally fell asleep it's far too late . It's all Jayden's fault. Why did he have to tell me during bedtime? Now I have to go to school looking like a zombie . I drag myself to the bathroom letting the smell of soap sink in and take a look at the mirror . Oh well, I did look like a zombie. I started to contemplate skipping school but then it's a freaking Friday . It's my favourite day of the week apart from the weekend ofcourse and I'll tell you why . First of all my favourite teacher Miss Sullivan have only to classes a week to teach my favourite subject, History. It's Friday and Wednesday if you're curious and it's last Wednesday that I slept in the physics class , not a very pleasant memory if you ask me . But that's not all , unlike on Wednesday there's no physics on Friday and also art class is on Friday. I can't miss a Friday class over some lack of sleep . So I freshen up and put on some of my mom's make up because hey I'm going to school with Shawn. What if he takes back his decision to go with me after looking at my zombie face ? I can't risk that . When I went downstairs, Jayden was already there all dressed up eating his breakfast. He scan me head to toe the minute I step in .

" Eww .. what did you do with your face ? " He asked with a frown scanning my face .

I was taken aback and ask him what the problem is . I don't remember seeing anything odd with my face this morning.

" I don't know, it just look weird . " He shrugged and continue to eat his breakfast. Looking at my expression my mom seems to find it funny because she laughs out loud .

" Mom! Not you too . Come on tell me , what's on my face?" I started panicking.

" Honey ! I think he's talking about your make up . Why are you wearing make up ? You're going to school. " Mom continue to laugh.

" You jerk! How dare you ! I spent 2 hours on this make up . " I scream picking up a spoon and throwing it at him but of course he dogded it .

" Why are you so mad at me ? I just said it look weird because it is weird. I know you're crazy long ago but it seems your craziness just got worse day by day ." He responded acting all innocent. God ! I swear I'm gonna strangle him one of these days.

" Who are you calling crazy ? If there's anyone crazy here , it's definitely you . You're messing with me on propuse . First you get me so excited that I couldn't sleep a wink last night. Then I wake up like a zombie with all the eye bags , so I covered up with make up but you just have had your remarks about my make up too. You know what you're probably just jealous that you can't do make up as prefect as I did . You want me to feel insecure and remove it but I won't let you win because I know it looks fantastic." I express all my frustrations on a lengthy rant. I was prepared to continue it if not for the intervention of my mom.

" Okay you two that's it . Stop arguing. And anybody care to explain why she isn't sleeping last night."

Jayden and I exchanged a meaningful look as we shifted our fucus to the breakfast . Te air arround us grew hush as we both go silent. Fortunately, our mom perceptive as always choose not to press the matter any further. It's not really suprising because she's always been like this . She have always respect our privacy . She once told us that she trust her children enough to not question everything about our life . She said she knows we'll tell her when we are ready and even if we choose not to , she'll understand that somethings might be better left unsaid. It might be just how she's as a person or her parenting style . But if it's a parenting style, it's definitely working. Because of the fact that we never have to deal with too much questioning or restrictions from our parents, we learn to be responsible by ourselves. Our parents only taught us what's bad and what's good and said they trust us to make the right decision. So whenever we are about to do something we know is wrong , we feel this terrible sense of guilt for betraying their trust and as result we haven't gotten into trouble so far . If you think about it , my parents are genius.
