103. THE DAY

Today has been a cool day for Esther, because she had to go to the dentist to have the braces taken out of her teeth. On the other hand, her family was already asking her about the grades and she had to lie a little bit, maybe they could appreciate that. The ones who didn’t stop asking for every detail were her sisters, they’re worse than her mum! How tiring! Anyway, after some time daydreaming in her bedroom she had to go the dentist, where she run into an old classmate from the private school she went to as a kid, with whom she relived a bit that raw part of her life (why can't she just get that over? No matter what, everytime something related to the Bullying at school and the summertime town was showing up, she was getting emotional, so definitely better not to think anything, but in her small hometown, sometimes that was unexpected, like seeing this person) After all that she went to High School feeling happy because of her new smile and everybody noticed and told her she was really pretty. But not everyone noticed, imagine who… Yes, Imogen who lives in her own world who was obviously complaining about… wait.. what? She was just making up reasons to complain about nothing really! What a pain! That definitely was enough and then Esther exploded, telling her everything she thought of her; because she was weighing her down and that she couldn’t stand her, all her complaints, fake stories and tears,…. it was too much, and she wanted to stop playing truants, and pass that class! Then Imogen just left without saying a word, half crying. Esther couldn’t believe it, after so many fights and confrontations and disagreements. Later at school, their classmates didn’t believe her, and there was a moment when Esther though that maybe she was too mean. Well, let’s see what happens next.

102. THIS IS THE STUDENT LIFE

Today at high School: Marks day! So, there they were Nadja, Beryl and Alex talking and debating. The truth is that Esther doesn’t want to be taken by any bad surprise and works a bit harder because the next course is decisive, and we’re talking about college, some of them knew already what to study, but Esther wasn’t very sure, as well as Nadja. The thing Esther likes to do the most is singing. Yet in Phsychology class, they made Esther happy because she passed!! So great! She was happy for all day long and saying it to everybody. In other classes it wasn’t the same, but she didn’t care, she was even fooling around with Herbert and JM, whatta a jokers! She actually had a lot of fun, Herbert’s been nicer than usual, the bad thing is that they were told off by the teacher. Sometimes, especially Esther, he’s got it in for her, so the fourth time he changed her of place, making her go to the front row, not expecting that, and that made her get blushed. It was a really long time she didn’t feel that embarrassed. And she hates that feeling so much, because everybody laughs for that. She doesn’t even know why she gets blushed, why she is the way she is. But just for once she is starting to feel more confident, suddenly this happens… In the last class there was an exam and she had no clue, so she made a crib and meanwhile a classmate was telling her the answers, but a bit silly, cause he got caught and almost her!
