Well, despite my rather unstable financial situation, I have managed to stay a little productive although I am unable to work on any of my bigger projects. I have tree short stories, and one is closing in on the finish line, so I thought I’d actually use my blog to share some of it, before it enters my wattpad account.
I tried to add a psychological sub-theme to it(I studied psychology after all), but I have never done it before so in the end it will probably just end up as a love story, lol! Oh well, there people who like that too:)
Unseen.
“Anna has everything a teenage-girl in High School could possibly want. Her best friends are Matthew and Melissa. Matt had been her best friend and neighbor for as long as she could remember. He was a athletic boy with brown hair and eyes. He was friendly, handsome and popular. But just because he was popular, he wasn’t a bully and picked on the nerds or the Emos or anything, he just left them alone. Though, he rarely was able to see things from other people’s perspective. And he never took a hint. Ever.
Melissa joined their duo in high school, and was a super tall girl, taller than Matt. She had legs as long as a year and always wore high heels to show it off. She had long, red hair, long lashes and seductive dark eyes. She had the curves of a Greek goddess and she’d cause a heart attack on a nerd if she passed him in the hall. But she was a Greek goddess with a keen eye. She was the opposite of Matt(opposites attract one-another, huh?), she picked up on every single gesture and eye movement and read anyone like an open book. And boy did she use it to her advantage. That’s how she became friends with Matt in the first place.
Being friends with these two gave Anna access to all the parties, concerts and happenings. Nobody picked on her, no one even spoke to her unless she spoke to them first. People separated when she came walking down the hallway, despite not having the looks like Matt and Melissa. Anna was a plain girl with sleek brown hair and hazel eyes. She was athletic and did good in sports like Matt. Melissa however dreaded them, and rather eat carrots for a whole week to keep her weight than actually exercise. Whenever Anna and Matt ate a burger she’d sit as far away as possible, like the calories could get into her body through diffusion. Not that Anna thought she even knew what that was.
But despite it all, Anna was miserable. It was like having pillowed stitched under your arms and always walking on a gold bar covered road. Everything was just handed to her all the time. Where was the adventure?
And then there was that thing. Anna’s dark secret. Anna has had a crush on Matt since she was 12, and still had not been able to convey the message. But at least she had successfully been able to hide it from gossip queen Melissa. That had to count for something.
But on the other hand, complaining over her situation while others tiptoed through the hallways trying to avoid their bullies, seemed so shallow. Anna felt like a spoiled brat as all she had to do was glare at them and they’d back off. She had the power to stop any bullying, but she didn’t.”
Stay posted for the update!
