Thanks For The Pain

Thanks for the Pain.

You know some people are excited for their first day of High School. It’s a “New start”, a chance to grow up, maybe make some new friends, and leave all the other BS behind. That’s what I thought, until “she” came around. “She” ruined everything for me last year, and I’m not exaggerating when I mean EVERYTHING!

It was only the second week of school, and I was in English. I was sitting there doing my work with Britney when “She” came up and started to taunt me. “Hey Mariah! Heard you wore your mom’s bras?!?!” I just sat there and looked at her with no emotion in my eyes. I just calmly looked at her and said, “No I don’t. please do not spread that rumor about me” She got up and just started verbally attacking me. Calling me nasty names, telling me she would “Slam my head into a wall again”, “beat my ass” and that she would “put me into a hospital”.

I was to be honest scared. I asked the substitute teacher if I could go use the restroom. I walked down the hallway plagued with pain in my heart. I could feel the wet, salty tears run down my cheek and touch my lips. I didn’t know what to do or where to go. I just sat in the hallway. Alone. I reached the bathroom and pulled out my phone. I could hear it vibrating from people texting me. “Where’d you go?!” “Are you ok?” “Why’d you leave?” I just set my phone down for a second and looked at my reflection in the mirror and thought to myself “Here we go again.”

I grabbed my phone and called my mom. I tried to be calm but I couldn’t. It was almost impossible. My mom finally picked up.
“Hey honey. What’s up?”
“Mom! “She’s” starting drama with me! She started saying that I wore your bras and that she would beat me up again! What do I do?!?!”
“Just go to the office and talk to Oatly everything will be fine”

I could tell just by the way she talked, that she was worried. She was scared for me. I knew she was. I went to Oatly’s, talked to him, and then left. I had to go

    I dreaded the alarm that woke me up at 6:30 in the morning. It was as loud as a screaming toddler that could be heard for miles. I groggily got out of bed and got ready for my first day of school. It was a weird feeling not putting on a uniform like I had been for the past nine years, but I also enjoyed that freedom. The nervousness became more and more intense as I could closer and closer to campus. When we arrived, I got out of the car, and watched my dad drive off to go take my younger sister to school. There was no going back now; I had no other choice than to walk through those doors. I felt like my throat was in my stomach. I noticed some familiar faces, and I walked towards them. While I was approaching my friends, a senior, facing toward me, walked passed. He must have been at least six feet tall, which was incredibly intimidating for me at just over five feet. I was not used to the fact that I’d potentially have classes with these giants. Additionally, the array of new teachers, and having to learn all of their teaching styles and things they did or did not tolerate was hard in…

    What I meant by go tell the teacher was go get help but I didn’t say that. He didn’t say anything he just ran off. I should get up he’s probably not going to come back, I thought. To get out you had to crawl through one of the hexagon holes. I could barely even get to my hands and knees but once I did, I could only crawl with one arm. Once I got out I had to use the bubble to help me stand up. I started out walking slowly I had to keep my balance. I was so dizzy, I felt like I was going in circles while was walking. I had just made it on time to go back inside before they closed the…

    Even in this tense moment, my dad cracked a joke. My mom was still panicking about the fact that I had almost died, and my twin sister had come outside to see what was going on. I hung my head low, arms dangling at my sides, and holding the fire extinguisher by the hose. I was safe, but it felt like something inside of me had died.…

    The sky was nice and clear. It wasn’t too hot or too cold. It was perfect. It was a typical third grade day. My friends and I were in recess, goofing around, having fun. We sat on the benches and joked around. Next thing I knew my friend was on my back and I was carrying him around. Not aware of my surroundings, I tripped over a bench, closed my eyes, braced for impact, and fell face first into the dirt. I got up feeling dazed and the first thing I hear is a scream. Confused, I looked over to my friend and her face was a mixture of scared and shocked. I saw friends run to the restroom to get me paper towels, but others told me to go to the office. As I walked to the office, I began to feel pain in my lip. I walked into the office speechless.…

    I looked up and there he was singing my favorite song. The whole stadium was roaring like a lion. My friend Sam and I were screaming “baby, baby, baby oh”. We jumped like everyone else. The stadium was shaking. My mom fastened my arm rapidly. There was sweat dripping down my friend Sam’s forehead like a waterfall. When the song ended, that is when everything settled down a bit and my mom then released my arm. Which made me feel a little bit less distressed.…

    We were almost through the state of North Carolina as we traveled on Interstate 95. It was rush hour and you could tell everyone was antsy and excited to get home. Cars traveled at 80 miles per hour, and some were even traveling faster than that. I could now see why it was ranked the fifth worst highway in North America. Cars were weaving in and out of traffic at over 90 miles per hour. Traffic was getting heavy. Listening to the radio, my dad and I sang along to a familiar song we both knew, “Yeah” by Usher. “Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!”, we both sang while he drove. My dad always loved this song, so we had the radio turned almost all the way up. The song ended and we turned the radio down. We had already been on the road for ten hours so we were beginning to get a little tired. It was almost 5:00 in the evening and we did not eat lunch, so we were both getting hungry as well. “Where do you want to stop for dinner?”, I asked him. My dad looked at the food signs next to the highway as I looked up places on my phone where we could grab a bite. Just as I was about to name off a few places where we could go, my phone flew out of my hand and my head jolted forward.…

    It all started the first day of fifth grade. I tried to focus on my teacher; however, the constant thump in my head drowned out her voice. Not knowing this feeling, an emotion of fear displayed on my face. I became perplexed, yet resolute. Determined to persevere through this milestone of the first day, I shifted the focus of discomfort from me to other things in class. Having this diversion, I made it through the day.…

    I headed to my first class which just so happened to be my favorite subject, English. The hallways were very wide but when filled with students I felt like I had to shove my way through just to get to my locker. The lockers were a mixture between Gray and purple. The school colors were supposed to be purple and silver but there was no way that these lockers could be considered. I took a look at the little piece of paper that the lady in the office had given me and tried out the combination on my locker. It took me about five minutes to open it and after struggling for that long I was a little irritated so when it did open, it flew open and slammed into the locker next to mine. I held my breath and hoped that nobody had noticed. I took a long deep breath and slowly opened my eyes again. Luckily I was still standing alone and nobody around was looking at me. I put my extra books and notebooks into the locker and and closed it as quietly as I could.…

    I got out of the car and apologized. She said it was fine every single kid does something like this. My mom gave her my purse so she can get the coins. When she was done getting all of the coins out of my purse she gave it back to me and told me, “Jessenia there’s no reason for you to be crying.” And she wiped the tears off my face. My mom said, “I’m really sorry Janet, Well we have to go because I have to go pick up Jacky and Ashley. We walked to the car and drove to my uncle’s house to pick up my sisters and drove back home.

    I was in class and she started to ask questions about the Holy Trinity. I was the only one to get a question correct, but unfortunately she didn’t have her prize box. She told me me with as sad voice that she was sorry that she didn’t bring it, but that she would bring it next class. I told her that I didn’t matter and that there was no hurry. I said goodbye to find my mom in the family center. The next day, I went on the bus to go to school. Once off the bus, someone called my name. It was my teacher! “I told you that I would bring it,” she said. “Thank you,” I said and picked my prize. I waved goodbye to her and walked inside the building to…

    “Hello,” said a kind face to me as I entered my first eighth-grade class at a new school. “Hello,” I said back, not knowing how to take the gesture. I walked into a classroom full of new faces. Everyone was gawking at the new kid. I thought to myself, “is it what I’m wearing? Do I look weird? Should I say something?” I did nothing but go to my assigned seat, and sat quietly just like I did on the bus months prior. As I sat in silence, I listened intently as the teacher floated across the room while calling roll. When I heard my name called, I tried to muster up the courage to address myself in a casual way, but I’m sure that it came out as a nervous “here.” As she finished roll call, each student was handed a mountain of forms and papers. Then the class slowly transformed into a parade of shouts and laughter. Everyone was welcoming each other back, except for me. I sat there in silence examining everyone.…

    High school is a new atmosphere to everyone. There’s more people, new teachers. It doesn’t start to hit you that you’re almost done with high school until the first week of senior year.
