I picked my bag and rushed downstairs with my hair flowing freely in the air.
I got closer to the dinning table and spotted Aunt Betty arranging the table.
"Hi Aunt" I said softly.
She turned and glared at me then took her eyes back to the meal she was setting.
"I'll be going to school now" I added but she didn't respond and I took the exist door.
I took the usual road I normally take to school and notice a black car coming behind me.
The black car pulled over and a guy by the name Jason looked out to me from the back car.
His mom was actually driving him to school.
"Hey Dana" he waved.
"Hey" I waved back and tucked my hair which was hovering all over my face tho to excess wind behind my ear.
"Jason, who is she? I've never seen a girl so beautiful" Jason's mom said from the front sit.
I took my eyes to her and smiled.
"Hi ma'am" I greeted.
"Yea good morning, hop in, let me help you get to school since that's where my son is also schooling" she offered and I smiled.
Jason quickly opened the back sit and I got in and shut the door.
I sat and faced the front.
[Hi, you can add me up on What'sApp for the complete episodes,+2347062396226... thanks..]
"So, tell me Dana, are you new in this neighbourhood?" Jason's mom speak from the front.
"No ma'am, I'm not" I replied politely.
"So, how come I've never seen you around this area, cause this is where we also stay" she said.
"Well, I've seen you a lot ma'am" I cooed.
"Really? Then its must be my fault then. Maybe its because am getting older you know, anyways you're really beautiful" she complemented at the end.
I smiled again.
"Thanks ma'am" I cooed.

We arrived school and I came down.
"Thanks once again ma'am" I greeted Jason's mom as she speed off.
"Hey" Jason called coming closer to me.
"Hi, you and your mom just saved me the stress of walking to school. I'm grateful for that" I appreciated and he smiled.
"Its alright, its nothing" he replied and I nodded and turned to take the hallway to the class when students started rushing to me like bees rush to honey.
"Hi Dana."
"Hello Dana."
"You're looking pretty Dana."
Different students kept singing as they handed different things to me.
Flower, mostly snacks.
Today I noticed that the attention is much more than yesterday.
Everyday the attention I get increases.
I honestly like it and enjoy it since I've always been left out in the past.
If its what I'm thinking that made it possible then I'm grateful for it.
I'm grateful for this opportunity.
I smiled at them as I collected different gifts to the extent that I couldn't take in more.
They keep falling off my hand. Can't carry them.
"I'll help you" I heard Jason's voice and he started collecting gifts on my behalf.
"Aw she's really pretty."
"More pretty than a goodness herself" I heard students say.
I struggled through the crowd of students and finally got to my class and sat.
My desk was filled with gifts, even large teddy bears.
The gift didn't stop coming in until a teacher came into the class and started teaching.

Lunch time.
Students started bringing their foods to me.
"Hey Dana, this meal is prepared by the best chef you can ever see" a student said handing her lunch box to me.
"No no, mine is prepared by my mom, she's the greatest and the best cook. She's won so many awards, it would be my honour if you'll taste it" another said.
Huh!
Other students did the same too confusing me.
I told them off but they didn't wanna listen and at the end I ended up collecting all their meals.
Then I tasted them too.
Gosh, it still feels like a dream to me.
Just last week, people ran away from me.
They stay far away from me but now..they all suddenly care about me.
If its a dream then I wish not to wake up.
I don't wanna wake up.

One of the male student who wasn't my classmate offered me a ride home.
His not just the only one tho, they were much.
But I had to accept his because he was the first.
He drove me to my guardian's house and I came down.
"Thanks a lot, Jace" I thanked.
"I'll be happy to take you home everyday so don't let others take you home" he said in a hard muscular voice.
I smiled and nodded.
"Noted" I replied and dragged the bags of gift with me into the house.
Thank goodness my Aunt Betty is not around so I went up straight to my room.
I'm over feed and I want to sleep but no.
I can't, I can't sleep in this condition.
I barely had time to think but the little time I had, I figured out that the only thing mysterious was the book.
Yes, the floating light book.
That's the only thing mysterious and I'm gonna have to check it out but first I need to shower.
All those student crowding me attracted sweats so I need to wash them off.
Before I don't normally care if I get dirty but now that everyone wants to be my friend.
Now that attention is on me I think I need to stay clean at least to appreciate the STRANGE BEAUTY given to me, I thought and rushed into the bathroom and showered.
I did that and later came out with a towel drying my long shiny hair.
And if I haven't said this you gotta listen.
My hair actually brings out tiny lights which is visible only at night.
Its beautiful, really beautiful.
After everything I went under the bed and saw the book.
I smiled as I held the book to myself.
Hmm I think I'll call you my lucky charm, you changed a lot of things for me, I thought and looked at the book.
Words were written on the cover but they were confusing words.
I can't understand them one bit.
I knelt down on the floor and placed the book on top of my bed then I slowly opened it, ready to see and know what caused the changes.
