As I opened my mouth wide open, I remembered the boy from earlier, the fact that he chuckled 'Why-? Just who is he?-' My mom had to interrupt me "Lettie. Please eat, do you not like the food? Or do you have something in your mind? You've been zoning out for the past 10 minutes." I look up to her as she wears a warm smile on her face, I ask her; "Do we have new neighbors?" She shoves a spoon filled with food into my mouth. As she shoves it right after, I almost choked due to the sudden counter.
She nods and said; "Yes, we do but I also heard they lived here before, the town- almost the whole town knows them, there are two children maybe around your age but one is 2 years younger than you. Why do you ask? Have you met them before?" I swallow my food and reply to her "Yes, it just so happens that I met one of their son, which is the eldest." She is still wearing that smile on her face. "Great! Are you friends with him?"
I shake my head, I can tell how excited she is knowing the fact that I don't have any friends because of those.. Rumors 'To be honest... Should I consider being friends with him and other people? Despite others being disgusted with me?' As we continue to eat in silence until my dad came home from work.
As time passes by, I head to bed and try to go to sleep but my sisters are being to loud, I tried to tell them to keep it down but they're busy arguing about a game.. I sigh and tuck myself to bed in hopes and praying that 'I won't bump into him.. But I might consider on being friends with him if he ask that is. But it was a weird encounter.. '
The next day, getting ready for school and on my way to school. I walk in the sidewalk as I glance and take a look of the sky and appreciate the atmosphere and environment when suddenly a boy with a bicycle with blonde hair match up to my speed, being perplex he shouted; "My name is Isaac Smith!" I show no interest because he ruined about me appreciating the environment. 'Yes, I may have considered on making friends but.. I'm not ready yet. On making friends I mean.' He still continues on following me while introducing himself to me and what a surprise (sarcastic) we're on the same school how amusing. 'Great.'
As he enters the gate, he look back to me and wave at me. "See you!!"
'I would appreciate it if we won't see each other again. Fortunately, when introduced himself, he's 13 meaning, we're not in the same grade.' I sigh in relief. Entering, the school with enormous hallway filled with people, White metal lockers, just like ordinary school.. 'Those gaze again, when can I escape from gossiping? When can I escape from unwanted attention?'

'Kids at my age fear me, parents look down on me, some kids either make fun of me or take advantage of me. Which is why I don't like making friends. Friends come and go. When you have one mistake and misunderstanding, they'll just leave and avoid you.'
Looking back on Scarlet's experience with friends
"Hey Scar! Do you have this limited edition toy!?" As she laughs while showing it to me. 'Of course I have to lie so that I won't be an embarrassment and I need to fit in.'
'I go along with everyone and do what they say in order for me to fit in. Even If I wanted to ask my parents.. Sometimes I don't want to be spoiled although we can afford such items, I just don't want to carry heavy burden to them.'
"I don't want to waste much money on toys, It'll be useless when we get older and get bored of them." I said, with just wearing a poker face.
"Just say you can't afford it. If you can't and if you can afford it, then.. Buy it. And we'll still be friends." She says it while wearing a smirk. I had no choice but to cooperate while I have strict parents, I'll have to study really hard so that I can earn it, though I want to buy something else.. Than a toy.
It kept going and going, everyone expected highly of me but then one certain rumor and misunderstanding had to change everyone's perspective into disappointments. I wanted to please everyone. Now everyone is disgusted of me, except for my family but every time I try to make friends my expectations drowned and they are filled with disappointments. 'I'm lonely.. I want to make friends.. But I can't.'
Now I suddenly remember that boy from yesterday
"Red." He mumbled, I scoffed
'Is it because I'm filled with guilt, lies, mistakes and other things? Or is it because I'm a threat and a menace to everyone? Red is truly suitable for me' As I glance around 'Everyone fears me. Is that what he meant?'
As I walk in the hallway about to enter the classroom as I stop and try to open the door, I feel anxious and excited for some weird reason. 'Should I make friends? Or should I not?' I bite my lip and decided to go to the bathroom and look at myself in the mirror 'Black hair, Black eyes, red lips and a confuse face. Just what does this day have in store for me?'
.・゜-: ✧ :- -: ✧ :-゜・.
'Oh great... Him. We may be neighbors but I never would have thought we'd be in the same school, in all schools it has to be here.. How did he.. I mean how is he beside me?' I can feel the eyes are on me. 'Don't tell me that I'll be made fun of again.. Later. Great just great.' I roll my eyes
