I woke up with the morning sunlight streaming through the closed curtains. Stretching like a cat I slowly blinked away the sleepiness. Going over to my closet I chose to wear a white tank top under a black one with a white leather jacket, white jean shorts with fishnet leggings, and black flat boots. Grabbing my bag I went downstairs and into the living room.
My pet King Snake lay in his glass terrarium. “Good morning Hebi,” I smiled and lifted him out and placed him around my shoulders. Hebi’s head curled around and his tongue flicked in my ear. Stifling a giggle I placed him back in his terrarium. “I’ll get you some breakfast.”
After my breakfast and giving Hebi his I went out the door and headed to school. As my walk progressed, boys started surrounding me.
“Melodie, let me carry your bag.”
“Are you kidding? Melodie, let me carry you.”
Shaking my head, I went inside the Academy and opened my locker. By this time a throng of boys were watching as if they had never seen a girl open her locker before. Getting my books a guy grabbed them from my hands saying he would carry them for me.
I had a twinge of annoyance. “No thank you.” I took my books back and put them in my bag while the boy looked like he would faint just from my talking to him.
Ignoring similar requests I noticed Narumi Uchiha out of the corner of my eye as she made a clone of herself and disappeared down a hallway. Smiling slyly to myself I waited for the precise moment to arrive. Eventually, it did; a crowd of students was surging down the hall, approaching me and my band of fan boys. Doing a few hand signs behind my back I created a clone of myself and vanished into the crowd. The boys followed my clone as she went to the girl’s bathroom. Don’t call it copying; I used that tactic a week ago and apparently she took a leaf out of my book.
It’s always like this you know, every day. Girls always say they want to be me; but give them one day in my shoes, just one, and if there was anyone they wanted to be, it would never be Melodie Himitsu.
