Prologue

If anyone knew me, it had to be "that" girl.Suzan Bailey.She wasn't your typical girl,really.She was a girl you couldn't forget but for some reason I could and then eventually I couldn't.That girl changed my life, if only I could say thank you to her.I didn't deserve a girl like that in my life. I think God really did love me and yet at a time like this, now I acknowledge him.I'm a cold-hearted fool.


CHAPTER 1

Its was another hot Monday in art class.She was drawing outstanding pictures as usual while I still was contemplating on what to draw.I always wondered what goes on in her mind when she draws.Its amazing what she comes up with in pictures that seem so out of this world.She must have a big imagination.I wanted to ask her some questions about her art but I'm too shy for that.

My art teacher, Mr.Welsh went to the office to get some flyers for his homeroom to pass out tomorrow.Everyone in class barely noticed that he left since most of the time they talked so much and it drove me crazy.

My friend, John Macino who sat in front of me during art was caught up in reading a comic book called Death by Vengeance than drawing.I wouldn't blame him, I would rather do that or just watch 'that' girl draw or should I say Suzan instead.

Then it was these two girls that sat next to me, Patricia Roberts and Evanna Palmer.They loved to giggle and do no work. I hated sitting next to them, all they did was gossip over stupid things like boys,make-up and chick flicks.But they sometimes they made Suzan smile while she was drawing although they didn't know that.Its scary to see her smile or slightly giggle at their stupid jokes because she barely showed emotion.She's like an lifeless doll and art was the only thing that brought her to life.And she was the only one that could bring me to life.

A few minutes later, Mr.Welsh came back with a hug stack of flyers and sat them on his desk. He exhaled and then sat back down grading our old drawings we did last week. He never seems to get a break.

I still didn't have even one pencil marking on my paper.I was too busy staring at Suzan's drawing.Then she looked up at me,so quick that I jumped a little and the two gossip girls looked at me and giggled some more.Suzan has mysterious eyes, eyes that can't be predicted or can really be described. I began to just doodle on my paper. I had only ten minutes left to draw something creative and shaded in, that had to be turned in at the end of class.How stupid of me to wait now.My hand was shaking I still didn't recover from how fast she looked at me.He face shouted Why are you staring at me?Just draw!! or maybe Do you find me interesting?I don't know.

John closed the comic book,laid it to the side and smiled at me.

"You have to read this comic, this is better than I thought,"he said.

Suzan glimpsed at the front cover and went back to drawing.

"No thanks, I'm reading a book right now.Maybe another time"

"You're not gonna finish that drawing you might as well stop to read the comic.He's gonna allow us to take it home to finish."

"Another time,ok? I want to concentrate on this drawing." I totally forgot that Mr.Welsh allow us to take home our art work but I didn't want to mostly I wasn't gonna finish it at home either since I already had homework and plus I would fall asleep while doing it.

John sighed and put his head in arms on the table. I sighed also and put my pencil down did the same that John did.I gave up.It was no shocker to me.I did all the time.Too much actually.It was something my family picked on me about but I tried to not let it phase me.Literally I'm a lazy person who can't find a way stop it.Or maybe I do? I don't know.
