".A baby is born with a need to be loved - and never outgrows it."

Chapter 33 - Blank

"Your time starts now."

It was English period and the Sabio had to write an essay. It was time pressured and freestyle writing which made it a little harder. Isabelle was blank. She didn't even know the first letter to her sentence. Random thoughts came to her head. Rainbows, clothes, pink toenails. That felt kinda gay. She was lost and her paper was still empty. Time was running out. Her mind was useless now. She decided to ditch a draft and started to write her name on a clean piece of paper. Still nothing. She was gonna lose it. Isabelle wanted to ask someone or anyone to help her. At least give her an idea. She was hopeless, she looked around the room for any kind of inspiration. Her eyes were glued on to a movie poster. It was about a robot gaining true love. It seemed unrealistic but as the saying goes nothing's impossible with the power of love. Even robots get hit. Unlike half a minute ago, her mind of useless and unconnected ideas flashed into mixed and poignant dreams. Her head was filled with inspiration and emotion. She started to write fast and fierce. "5 mins", her teacher yelled. Isabelle panicked but she was halfway through. "Pencils up, pass your paper". She exhaled, just in time. Her hands were shaking but she didn't care. Her paper was done, her mind was back in shape and the essay was about how Miguel stole her heart. That made her smile, an essay about Miguel. Her inspiration was Miguel.

".To be at peace with your soul you must bang your head until the fruits of fulfillment show the love."

Chapter 34 - Danger

The bell rang signaling the end of classes. Isabelle walked hastily along the corridors, like someone was waiting for her. She held her books and her bag at her side. She was walking at such a fast pace that people practically was giving her way. She saw her ride waiting outside the campus then she ran faster. Isabelle didn't know why she was walking so fast, her mind just told her to do so. Then in flash, a guy riding a skateboard bumped, most properly crashed, right in to her. Books came flying from every direction and Isabelle's bag flattened on the floor. She became furious. Her face turned red and she faced the guy who was busy checking his skateboard for cracks. The guy looked at her and started to open his mouth but before he could speak a syllable, Isabelle grabbed a book and slammed it on his foot. A scorching scream came from the guy, it was a 600 - page book after - all. "Do you have eyes?", Isabelle said with a slight growl. The guy was massaging his foot, "What?".

"A girl was walking and you just bumped right into her with your stupid contraption?!"
"What girl?"
"I can't believe you! Take off that stupid mask and show your face."
"Yeah, I gotta go. See ya!"
"Excuse me?"

The guy strode off in his skate board and shouted, "Sorry!". Isabelle was taken aback. She was so mad at that guy. Her books were still scattered on the floor, she slammed her bag on the floor and started picking them up. She was about to pick up the last book when a guy stopped right in front of her and swooped it from the floor. She looked up and the guy was handing the book to her. He smiled and ran towards the stairs. Isabelle still stood there her mind still absorbing what had happened.
