EXCERPT
Heather was awakened by the sound of her alarm. Today is the first day of the rest of my
life, she thought as she stretched and yawned. She jumped up out of her bed, hit the silence
button on the alarm, and went to her closet to pick out her clothes for the
day. After looking through all her
clothes, she sighed deeply.
What can I wear to this illiterate, rustic school. If I dress up, then people will think I’m a
snob and snub me. If I dress down, then
I will blend into the crowd, and I will not be able to accomplish
anything. I guess I have my answer. I need to be seen in order to make a difference,
whether good or bad.
Heather picked out her black leather skirt, a white dress shirt, a black
fringed soft leather jacket and her black leather boots. At least I’m wearing boots, that way I’ll
blend in somewhat, she thought. She
styled her hair the way she always did and put on her makeup with a little more
emphasis than usual.
Heather heard a knock on the door, “Yes, what do you want?” she
asked. “I’m going to be outside. My cotton pickin’ cow, Molly, got out
of the fence, and I have to round her up.
Be back after a while,” Mick said through the door. “All right, but I’m leaving in a few minutes,
so I’ll see you after school,” Heather replied.
“Okey dokey, see ya later,” Mick responded.
“Okey dokey! I can’t
believe I’m living with a redneck, dirt farmer,” she said as she rolled her
eyes. Heather glanced at the alarm,
“Crap, I’m going to be late”, she said as she grabbed her purse and ran out the
door. The door slammed behind her as she
ran to the car. She looked around for
Mick, but didn’t see him anywhere. I
guess he’ll realize I’m gone when he doesn’t hear from me, she thought.
As Heather drove down the narrow gravel road she looked for the right
road to take to get her to the school.
She saw Mick with a belt whipping his cow. “Now I’m seen everything,” she said as
she laughed.
As Heather approached the school, a green ford truck ran right in front
of her. She paused for a second after
giving him the finger. I can’t
believe these idiots, she thought.
She pulled into the parking space closer to the front of the school, and
she looked over to the green pickup truck.
A scruffy looking guy with long hair climbed out of the truck. “You need to watch where your going. This aint New York , this is my town,” he said very hatefully
with a smirk on his face. “No, you need
to watch where you are going, you hick.
You’re the one who ran in front of me,” Heather replied as she pointed
her finger at him. Heather was a little
tougher than she looked. She wasn’t
going to let some corn fed hillbilly talk to her like that.
“How do you know I’m from New
York anyway?” she asked.
“That is for me to know and you to find out,” he replied as he turned
away from her.
Heather wasn’t used to people treating her this way, especially
boys. She was the most popular girl in
the whole school at Manhattan
High School Manhattan
wanted what she had. She was the envy of
all the girls at her school. Now she
felt like she was an outsider looking in through a dark stained glass and no
one could see her.
