PAST
January 2014. Age 16.
I stared at my bedroom ceiling, procrastinating and contemplating about
getting ready for the first day of school. Nervous energy coiled through my
stomach as I checked my phone for the hundredth time. It was only 6:03
a.m. I sighed. I still had plenty of time.

My phone flashed back to an image of a bright red thread woven together
in an elaborate pattern between two pinky fingers. It was an article about a
Japanese legend that I had been reading last night before I fell asleep. I
wondered if it was real. Was life all that simple, yet so complicated? Were
we all living in a pre-determined plot that someone wrote for us? Was I
supposed to end up here in Bellevue? A town that I now called my new
home. I smiled as I thought—I was now a small-town girl.
I hoped this time around that the fated red thread led me to the right place
because I was tired of moving.
I exhaled as I slid out of my cozy double bed that I had pushed off to the
far wall. A tiny window above the bed overlooked the street outside which
was currently drawn closed with my flower-patterned pink curtains. My
room was a complete mess. Boxes were lined up nearly everywhere,
containing most of my belongings. I counted about six of them that still
needed to be unpacked.
I glared at the walls. I hated the color. It was a dirty white splotched with
yellow stains all over it. Assuming from their condition they were probably
painted ages ago. It definitely needed a fresh coat, but I had to get ready
now.
“Evy! You are going to be late for school,” Aunty M yelled from
downstairs. I glanced at my watch. Oh no, it was 7:34 already. I had to be at
school in like twenty minutes. How did time go by so fast when I didn’t
want it to?
That meant I had been standing in my bathroom for over an hour,
dreading the fact that I had to face the outside world soon. I stared at myself
in the mirror, my warm brown eyes shining under the bathroom lights, my
porcelain skin free of any makeup, and my long, dark brown hair, almost
the color of chocolate, cascading down to my waist. I was nothing special,
just a typical next-door brunette with big brown eyes, barely over five feet,
and an average body. On the outside, I looked like a regular teenager all
ready for school in my purple hoodie and my old blue jeans. But on the
inside, I was a nervous wreck.
Because I did not like first days. I had been transferred to several schools
in the past, and that had always made me jittery. But this time I was scared
out of my mind because it was the middle of my sophomore year. It sucked
because I was supposed to be a junior but was a sophomore instead since I
skipped a school year when I was younger.
I sighed, fixing my hair one last time, having already brushed it several
times till I tamed it down to smooth soft waves.
“Coming, Aunty M,” I said as I rushed out of the bathroom and headed
downstairs to the kitchen.
