Stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid!

Why did I do that yesterday?, Why!

I mean, it's not like I wanted to, I didn't. It just happened, my eyes just closed on their own, I couldn't control it.

But wait, what was he about to say before dad came in?,

'do I?'

do I what? Uh?

I mean, it's his fault for leaning in and looking at me like that, why wouldn't I get the wrong idea.

"stupid jerk" I cussed out.

And What did he and dad talk about when they left the room?
I should have followed them and listen in?.

Arrh, but I was too embarrassed.

  I pulled at my hair in frustration, "why" I cried out,

I cringed again, remembering my stupidity.

"why did you close your eye you idiot, why?" I rested my head on the table,

  "Amies you alright?"

I jerked my head up, at the new voice "Raven"

She rose her eyebrow and took the sit next to me "why are you talking to yourself?, are you alright?" She asked as she placed her book on the table in front of her.

We where in class waiting for the teacher, and about to start our third period

"Yeah, I'm fine, I jus-"

"Hey Andrew!, over here" I heard someone call out, and immediately dived under the table like a fool,

Raven looked around in shock "what! What's happening?" She asked frantically,

When the person passed, I released the breath I was holding,

I cussed under my breath.

fool, no one calls Drew 'Andrew', not to mention, he doesn't take this class with me.

Someone in a sit not too far from mine spoke "yo 'fun Amy' what you doing under the table?, don't tell me you're still drunk" with that he and the person next to him snickered.

Did I mention I now have a nickname going round school, yeah, hopefully by next tomorrow they'll have something else to talk about.

I laughed awkwardly and sat back down,

Raven was looking at me like I had a loose screw "dude are you sure you're okay?"

  I gave a stiff laugh "I was looking for my pen"

She looked at my hand then back at me "you are holding your pen"

"Oh wow, I didn't notice" I gave another stiff laugh,

My goodness Amy, what is wrong with you?

"Amies, are you actually drunk?"

I Rolled my eyes at her "no, I'm not"

but I might need to be, in other to face Drew during last period

****

Thursday after school:

"Hello?" I said into the phone,

"Guess what my mom made this afternoon" Raven said

I chuckled as I walked up the stairs "what?"

"Ah Jol, ah jollo, ah Jollof rice!," she sang
