Just something i come up with. I had nothing better to do :tongue:. Hope you guys enjoy. Let me know what you think.
Ps. Sorry for grammar errors.
"Sarah!, hurry up. It’s getting late," she heard her mother scream from the living room.
“Coming Mom!. I’m almost ready," she replied trying to calm her.
Her mother was the kind of people that gave great importance to punctuality. Since she was only a child, Sarah’s mother always used to wake her early. That she could get make it to the school in time.
Since her father had abandoned them, her mother took care of everything at home. He had a steady job as a waitress that was barely just enough to pay for the house. However, her mother was always there, whenever Sarah needed her. She was very lucky to have her in her life.
When she finished dressing, Sarah look herself in the mirror. Her brown hair looked ...
"Wait a moment," she thought. “Am I stupid?. I saw myself last night, why am I acting like I don’t know what I look like? " . She walked away from the mirror, opened the door of her room and went down stairs.
His mother seemed very impatient; her face was red and her eyes bulging.
“You’d better hurry," she said as she handed her her backpack. “Denise must be waiting for you. Where exactly did she tell you she was gonna be?”.
"Um ... in Thomas AV. She said she would be in the Thomas Av”.
"You could have told her, to pick up you here. It would have been easier."
" Yeah, my mistake”. She replied trying to sound ashamed. “Don’t worry mom; I’ll make it in time”.
"Easy for you to say."
"Oh come on, mom!. You don’t need to be so dramatic. I will get there in time”. She kissed her and then headed to the door.
" By the way mom”, she said before leaving. “Maybe I’ll come back a little later than usual. Denise offered to help me with my essay. I’ll go to the library with her”.
His mother sighed. “All right, but please. Don’t forget to call. You how much I worry everytime you don’t answer my calls”.
“I won’t, mom”, she opened the door and went outside.
His mother peered out the window. Sarah waved her goodbye and then she went up the street towards Thomas Av.
“All right, keep walking. Just a little more and then you can stop pretending”.
She arrived at the intersection and then cross the street . She kept walking until she found an empty alley near some buildings being that were being remodeled. His heart staring beating, more and more strongly with each passing second.
If anyone saw her, she would be in big problems. Sarah made sure no one was watching her . Then, just as she was about to do it a noise behind her alerted her.
“Hey , girl!”. The man said . “Do you have some cash ?, I need my medicine. Do you have some cash?”.
The guy was acting very strange and erratically. His clothes were a ripped and his voice sounded confused.
“This guy is so stoned I’m surprised he can walk straight. I’m very lucky”. “No sorry. I was just ... um ... I was just waiting for some friends to pick me up”
“What a coincidence”, the guy said laughing. "I 'm short of friends. C-Can… can I be your friend”.
“You are a creep, aren’t you?”. “Suuure, just… just let me call child protection. They love guys like you”.
“What the hell did you just say, brat?”
“I said that you're too big to play with girls and dolls. Although, on second thought. The guys in prison, on the other hand, love guys like you. I know!, Maybe you could ask them to be you your new friends!”.
“Okay, no more games brat”. The guy pulled out a knife from his pants. “You better give me whatever little you have, if you don’t wanna get hurt”.
“Whoa, a knife ” Sarah tried sound surprised. “Are you going to use it to clean your teeth?”. The man, apparently, had had enough. He ran to her and tried to cut her,
Sarah instinctively jumped as high as she could. If the guy saw her as she rose, she did not get to know.
Within a few seconds, she was several miles above the city. The buildings looked as small as the first time she saw them from that high. According to the information she had been reading, at that altitude the human body could begin to suffer symptoms of altitude sickness. Lack of appetite, nausea, vomiting, fatigue, weakness dizziness or lightheadedness. Among other things.
None of that bothered her, she felt perfectly. In fact, she felt much better when she was flying than when she walked.
The memories of the first time she flew were still fresh.
She was falling asleep after studying for a math test. She felt the bed sagged under her. Or at least that's what she had thought. It wasn’t until her mouth touched the ceiling of her room that she realized what was happening. It took her several days of pratcticing for her to do it at will.
Sarah looked at her watch and saw that she had less than ten minutes to get to the high school.
“Okay, if I hurry, I may reach Michelson Lake before the time runs out. A hundred miles is nothing”. She took one last look to her city people and then she proceeded to fly as fast as she could.
“I'll never get tired of this”.
