I hope I never lose you

I am not surprised, I woke up to mom and dad nagging me, I sleep like dead and It's not my fault that I never heard them, It's just me being immune to their nagging. My mom and dad are religious and we have to pray every morning and evening like for 15 -20 minutes. It's been like that since the beginning and I would say it's a good thing; praying before we start our day. My bro and I ( the middle child is a bit stubborn or what do we say?? disrespectful ?! ). We were the only one who got the most scolding (courtesy of our smart mouth)

After our morning prayer, I took a look at our wall clock and freaked out, I only have 30 minutes: to cook, shower, eat breakfast, do homework because as soon as I ate dinner and did the dishes last night, I slept thinking I can wake up early and do it. Well, Procrastination is a must. I know, I suck in my studies; I don't study always. Today is another day, I did my homework just before the bell rings, my head hurts thinking of what I should accomplish when I reach school. Gosh, my pororo is gonna start nagging if I don't. I am a horrible being.

"Don't you have school today?" my older sis ask me, probably ready to rap about my tardiness.

"yes. Is the breakfast ready sis?"

"Umm, you are in your final year Lyra and I have never seen you studying, all you do is eat sleep, shower and go school ".

"I'll study." I am really gonna be late if my sis keeps up on pointing out all my error. I am mentally praying right now.

" Dad left the money on the table."

"Okay, when will you leave for your university?

" Next week"

"Good I want you to go"

" Yeah, Yeah, you'll say that when you work by yourself "

" pfft... I am fine by myself When you left for fieldwork last month"

" I want to leave soon. I am sick of staying with abnormal siblings" she says.

"I'll make sure they know you say that"

"I don't care"

"Pororo say what?"

" I said lazy ass"

" Hypocrite"

" Talking machine go to your school"

" Bye cinderella " I wave my hands mockingly and run up to my room.

I dressed up for school, did my routine, applied a thin layer of cream, and some nude lipstick, mascara, I checked the mirror, and Cringe. Damn! I forget to comb my hair. I comb it as humanly as possible, tied it to a loose bun and put my tinny silver earring; I love earrings it makes us look complete. I went outside and met my fuming cousin aka Ashley waiting to eat my head off. INteresting!!

" Lyra I swear I'll leave you one day if you're this late always "

"Good morning to you too Ashley"

" Annoying useless lazy.."

"Okay okay I get it, I am annoying but I am not useless and not lazy"

"Pfttt.... not lazy?? Are we talking about the same person here?"

It would be lovely to slap her hard right now; I want her to shut up " Ashley I saw Logan yesterday"

"So ...." she hums; Haha I knew it; Logan is Ashley's long time crush and. she's so stubborn, she never admits that she like him and last year I finally made her admit it.

"So? ??"

"Where did you see him??"

Okay, how do I lie??? " At school, Of course. "

" Ohh"

I won't be able to finish my homework if Ashley drives at this rate. You see Ashley is too cautious but I have to say coward, she drives like an old woman ...

Ooo!!!! Finally !!! Hallelujah !! I have exactly 15 minutes to finish my homework.

" Bye Ash"

"Bye"

I literally sprint towards my locker and spot Damon waiting for me. If it was another day I would be happy to see him but I know he's another person who won't be doing his work, he is worse than me, but he is one of my closest guy friend I have in my class. I met him last year, but it feels like I've known him forever. He's cute and has a tiny dimple unlike mine, I've got dimples on both my cheeks.

" Morning Ly"

"Morning, now, out of my way I've work to do"

" Geez !! Did You sleep late again reading your clique romance?".

"Hey nobody says that about my novel."

"Whatever "

He literally drags me by my shoulder and we went to our class. I met my best friend Georgie she's talking with her boyfriend Brett Once she saw me, she ran towards me and we sat in our usual seat in the last corner.

Thank god I finished my biology homework.

OMG!!!! please kill me it's math and I have to try hard not to sleep.

Time flies by and it's lunchtime now; I met my friends at our usual seat, Georgie is sitting next to Brett, Amber is between Rosie and Bless. Damon sat across Bless and I have to sit next to Damon. My friends think that Damon and I have a thing for each other, honestly yeah I like him but he has a girlfriend and she didn't go to our school. Damon do's these things which leaves me confused always, he would get mad if I get close with other guys, but him liking me is out of topic.

" Hey, how's your day," Brett asked me.

" Horrible, I hate miss Dana, Do you know? she glares at me always "

" Don't start about her SHE'S the devil spawn" Georgie replied rolling her eyes.

" I am hungry, what are you guys eating" Bless asked us

" Sandwich "

"Burger"

"I am not eating, I don't really have an appetite. " I said leaning my back.

" I am not surprised you say this every time, Are you on diet?" Damon asked while looking at me intensely.

"I'm not"

"What's wrong then? "

"Nothing" it's not that I'm on diet I just don't have an appetite it's almost a year I don't eat during lunch.

" Do you want gum? " Damon asked me.

" Give me " I stretched both my hands, he laughs at that always.

" Here," he gave me five gums and winked at me,

" Bley" I stick out my tongue playfully; both of us were grinning like idiots when we heard a throat clearing.

" Love is in the air " Rosie is singing a song and I reached across the table and smacked her head hard.

" He has a GIRLFRIEND " I replied and looked at Damon to see him frowning. It's the truth though I will never admit that I like him.

"What did I say?" Rosie replied looking innocently.

" Shut up" I muttered.

" Well, bye guys, I need to go"

"Bye," they all said in unison and I went straight to the library. Gonna read some novels. I love tragedy ( no Romeo and Juliet tragedy), but some sad ending novels; they are more memorable than those happy ending
