    “Mother!” I cried.
    And she lay still.
    “ Oh mother you idiot. You should have ran.”- Then I looked up and saw father. And the tears came. His face was that of agony, rage, and the fact that he had done nothing. He was mortified, as I was. - “Father I’m so sorry.”
    And he came to life. “ You should be you killed her!”
    I gasped. I had known this and yet to hear it out loud made something in my heart break, at least what was left of it. I cried even harder while he continued to yell at me. All he did though was tell me what I already knew. When he was finished I picked mother up and held her ice-cold body. I don’t know how long I was there. Sitting, watching, waiting. It could have been seconds, minutes, hours, days, even weeks. Finally I set mother down, got up, and ran.












    Chapter 1: School Again!?

    I walked through middle school with my only friend, Kagome, glumly thinking to myself.
    “Kagome…” I started, but I realized that she was talking to her friend, Ayume. I should have thought as much. After all I was only 14, one year younger than the two older girls. Anyways, they were talking about Hojo, AGAIN. When we reached the lunchroom I felt completely unloved and lonely, it was almost overwhelming. We were surrounded by preps, jocks, nerds, geeks (there is a difference), the rare gothic and emo kids, and a few solitary kids, but they usually sat together.
    Everyone had a group but me. All the years I had lived in Tokyo and I still didn’t have any friends. Maybe it was because the preps were jealous of me. I really wasn’t bad looking. I had reddish-black-brown hair I wore in a pixie cut, with long bangs over my left eye, wicked curves, ivory skin, full red lips, and a perfect face. And yet, I had one flaw- I had really freaky eyes. They were always changing color. Yet when I thought I couldn’t get any weirder I figure out that my left eye shows my emotions and my right eye shows my hunger status- weird right?
    Emotions: red=angry/pissed, orange= pretty mellow, yellow= stressed, green=jealous, blue= sad, aqua= depressed, white= lonely, pinkish= happy, gray= deep in thought, black= just out there, and brown=totally confused.
    Hunger: yellow= full, honey= the times when you b.s. people and say maybe one more bite, amber= sure I’ll eat the leftovers, brown= I’m really hungry!!, and black= god I really need food or I’m gonna die!!
    Or most likely it was because I was told I was orphaned before I was born, but I just had that feeling…
    “ Come on Suki!”
    Whoa, didn’t even touch my food. I thought. Oh well, I guess I’ll just throw it out.
    “ Suki! Your gonna be late! Come on!”


    “ Coming!” I gulped down my milk, threw my lunch away, and raced to gym.
    Gym was my favorite co-ac. It was always fun. Today we were playing dodge ball. I was really good at that game. I always hit people, but they never seemed to hit me. It was like I knew where they were gonna throw the ball before they actually did throw it.
    And that day I seemed to be doing a good job of not hitting people in the face. I was actually in a pretty good mood- until I heard the loud crunch and the all but comforting voices of children, and the coach.
    “ Suki get in the principals office this instant!” I could feel myself blushing- and I could almost see my eyes changing color, blue, because I was worried about the principal, aqua, because I knew I’d most likely get suspended, or worse, expulsion. I also knew I’d be grounded. s**t! Well there goes my weekend. Red, because I wondered why in the name of hell the principal was doing in hear anyways, and yellow, simply because I hated, no loathed, seeing Mrs. Higarashi mad at me.

    “ Suki. What I don’t understand is why you weren’t paying attention to who was around you…” said Mrs. Higarashi.
    “I’m sorry. When I’m playing games I’m in the zone and I can’t focus on anything else.” I mumbled.
    “ Suki, you don’t understand. It was the principal. And… ugghh. I just don’t know what to do with you.”
    She didn’t say anything more. I knew she could tell how I felt by my eyes- they were a yellowish- gray.
    I got up and headed to my room.
    “ Suki, where are you going?”
    “ Upstairs. Aren’t I grounded for like all of eternity?”
    “Suki I’m not going to ground you.”- I knew my eyes were changing a color that they hadn’t been in a while, brown- “what I’m going to do is just give you a few extra chores while you’re suspended. Oh, and I didn’t mean to yell earlier… I guess I was just surprised that I would hear from the school about you…”- when she said this she glanced at Kagome as if to say yes, I do remember what you used to do at elementary.
    Hah. So I was right about being suspended. Oh well, I‘ll just have to live with it.
    “So how long am I suspended?”
    “ About three days. Why?”
    “ Well, shouldn’t I know about my own suspension?”
    “Mom! I’m home!”
    “Come on in Sota!”...
