Chapter 4
"For starters, I am the one who controls your dreams." Emily started. "And control people too. I was controlling your dreams because I had to let you know something. Something important about your past.
Your father is alive. He married a woman but she left him for a rich guy. He is now drunk and looking for you and your family. Little does he know your the only one left alive." Emily stopped talking and looked at me for a long time.
"But what does that have to do anything about my past?" I asked. "Or those dreams?"
" Its a warning. Your father is dangerous." Emily explained. "And how do you know?" I demanded.
"I come from a parallel universe. I was a.s.signed to look after you." Emily replied back
"Look after me?" I wondered.
"Yes. I was your childhood friend. You don't remember anything because you were little and you started to forget about me as you grew older. That is why I came later to warn you about your father." Emily stated.
"mm-my father?" I stammered. "Is alive?"
"Yes he will harm you." She said.
"But how can he? He doesn't even know where I live." I pointed out.
"Yes he does." Emily said stubbornly. " Okay I'll tell you the truth that he's been living in my- in our- universe."
What? I was confused I didn't even know what was happening what Emily was saying.
"He
"So he just found out where I live now and is trying to hurt me?" I questioned.
"Yes and-" Emily was interrupted by the school bell.
"I'll tell you more later I got to go to cla.s.s." Emily said and walked out of the girls room.
I let her words sink in as I continued was.h.i.+ng my face.
My father is still alive, he is looking for me and is possibly dangerous. Emily is from a different universe far from Earth and my dad used to live there. But he turned out to be dangerous.
I gave a long sigh and went back to my previous cla.s.s to take my stuff. When I got to my cla.s.s, everyone was pointing and laughing at me. "Oh look! its clown girl!" Said a girl.
I ignored them and got out of the room.
My eyes met the queen bee of the school, Megan. She was so mean to me and everyone else below her "level".
Her lips turned into a smirk as approached me.
Please no anyone but her.
"Hey clown girl. You looked so nice in that makeup." Megan snarled.
I ignored her. I just listened because I knew whatever she said wasn't true.
"It makes you look waaay hideous." Megan continued.
"Hey!"
Kelly was standing in the middle of the hallway her hands on her hips.
"Are you going to stop bugging her Megan or do you want me to deal with you alone?" Kelly demanded.
"pfft are you going to beat me up or something? I was just messing around with her so chill." Megan laughed.
"I will if you don't stop. So get out of my sight." Kelly snapped.
Megan rolled her eyes before she walked away.
I felt a wave of relief I was so grateful for Kelly.
"Thanks for saving me from that jerk." I said.
"No prob. Just be more confident okay?" Kelly asked.
"Yeah sure." I said carelessly.
"Okay now get to cla.s.s." She said.
I nodded and walked away from her.
