Warm tears dropped from eyes onto my paper, I’ve just been accepted into Skyline University!
I threw up a fist up in the air like Rocky on top of the stairs, many eyes jumped on me, most of their expressions were confusion and jealousy. I shrank up up like a rotten apple and went back into my own business.
After a few moments the school bell rang and I got out with all of my papers and recycled it before I left for home.
I headed to my locker and grabbed my book bag but I was stopped by my sister and her group of “cool kids”, they looked like they came from every teen movie from the eighties. First there is Richard Kendrick , he is the muscle of the group. He is a middle linebacker for the high school football team about 6’2, blonde hair, blue eyes, tanned skin, and fierce eyebrows which is a defining thing about him.
Next there is Tiffany Albus who is the student council president and is also a powered person. She is extremely arrogant and overbearing since her dad is a board member of multimillion and billion dollars companies. She is about 5’7, long black hair, with blue eyes, high cheekbones, plush lips, and overall very beautiful. She seems to stick to my sister like glue and my sister treats her better than me!
Lastly there is Sandra Atkins , she is literally the nicest person in that group, which is really surprising. She is attached to my sister because one time in middle school my sister saved from a group of bullies (Another example of how my sister is a planning trickster/Devil spawn). She was actually very average looking, same height as Tiffany, Black hair, hazel eyes, and a very white teeth which leads to a very nice smile.
Well back to the present, “What do you want?” I gave a dead eye look to my sister, this always leads to her to try and mess with me to embarrass me or make her friends laugh.
“So did you even get accepted to a college or did you rejected for every single one!” Richard made a super corny joke attempt to “bully” me.
“I did get into college with full scholarship” I left only one possibility for him to answer to get into my trap and held a smirk back from my poker face. I can’t wait for them to be totally surprised and I leave really cool without looking back.
“Oh and what college was that Alex?” Sarah interrupted Richard and called out with an amused look on her face.
“Skyline…” I look to my right to find 4 mouths open in shock and astonishment staring at me like they had seen a ghost. I grabbed my book bag and rush to the bus to get to my favorite seat.
We were given a new bus driver this time, it was an old strict man in glasses who for the first time stopped the record of paper wars. The bus ride was actually peaceful…
Later that day I had told my mom about my scholarship to Skyline University who had freaked out and started crying tears of joy. My sister was just really quiet the whole time which was a first. I jump on my bed after a long day and just thought to myself about my future college, and just life overall.
The last day of school is today and it’s also graduation. Our school hosted it in our gym which was really big and yet was full to the brim with people. We were in our graduation gowns, sitting down in chairs on stage with a huge crowd of parents and family watching us,
Our principal gave a long speech on our younger years in high school and made some funny jokes based on nostalgia. They called up our names one by one till it got to me “Alex James!” I got to hear some clapping in the audience and hear a scream in the back “That’s My baby!!”, I kept my head down to avoid my embarrassment of my face. I shook hands with a couple of teachers and the principle and got my certificate and head back to my seat.

And this is what pissed me off. “Sandra James!!” It was like it was like a concert and you could hear screams of “I LOVE YOU!!” in the back and vigorous clapping could be heard throughout the crowd. My sister got up from her seat next to me and gave off those orbit smile to the crowd and gave waves of to the crowd.” Even the faculty were clapping very hard and smiles beaming off their faces like a reflective window with the sun shining on it.
She gave all the teacher a hug while crying “tears of joy” and I say with air quotes. She walks to back to her seat and quickly looked at me and smiled maliciously. I shuffled in my seat and felt a chill in my back. In a few minutes the ceremony had finished and everybody went to their families and started leaving school.
It was kind of a depressing goodbye, my two friends and I were going to different colleges and I might not ever see my friends ever again. We had a group hug and there were some tears involved and the person wishes to remains anonymous.
The car ride home was quiet, me and my sister were in the back with our graduation gowns still on. I was just looking outside through the car window while listening to some Alan Walker remixes on my playlist. My sister was on her phone texting like a crazy person to someone, her nails tapped rapidly against the phone screen and was very annoying. I sighed and raised the volume and continued to look through the window.
When we got home, we had gone our different ways. I through all of my clothes on my bed and changed into new ones. I went on my computer and went to the Skyline University’s website and inputted my code. I went to the forums and looked for summer classes or jobs to do because if I stayed a whole 3 months doing absolutely nothing I’m going to cut myself (It was a joke, calm your offensive butts down, I like dark humor). There were a few jobs I was interested in, most were a being a lab rat for a harmless experiment and were rewarded big bucks. But there was one that caught my attention.
I am looking for a person with moderate skill in work involving hands for research of a certain experiment and one needs to keep whatever they see a secret. If they do there completely they shall be given 5 million as compensation and something else of my choosing. In the link below I want you to fill the form out and send it to…
The hell is this?! 5 million dollars for this I could live richly for the rest of my life! I clicked on the link and I quickly filled out the form and emailed it to the man. I browsed through the site and looked through the general information on the forums. I look through the classes offered at the fall and damn were there a lot. It went to Quantum Mechanics to arts and crafts, they had a popular class list and number one on that list is the Hero course. I mentally sighed, If only I had powers… Ding!
I turn over my phone to see a message from a guy named Dr. Seno I tapped the message and it had said ” Hello Mr. James I carefully looked over your resume and I have found you acceptably for the position, please come to Skyline’s R&D department tomorrow at 3:00pm. And also bring your stuff over you will be here till school starts”
