Piano keys and shaky knees

Don't you test me thought! Just because i play the piano, doesn't mean I am not willing to take you down ... I'm sorry...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Hun? where am i? Whats happening? Why can I here people talking?

I look down at myself, only to realise that I am wearing a floor length black dress and have my piano book in hand.

Then it hit me.

I'm at my piano recital.

And they are calling me up with a mumble that I barely decipher as my name.

Taking a deep breath i muster up my courage and walk on to the now dark stage.

A single spotlight follows me as I walk towards the only other thing I can see, my piano.

I sit down and open my book.

Wait.. this isn't my book!

This is my brothers!

Oh-no! I must have grabbed it by mistake and I can't remember my solo now! What do I do?

Nervously I glance at the crowed and am greeted with blank faces with no eyes, mouths or noses. I barely swallow a scream as then they start to morph into people, disappointed faces I know from school and life, pointing and laughing. At me. And I'm falling, falling into a dark, bottomless abyss...

I woke up with a start in my room.

I took a quick look around before letting out a breath of relief.

" It was all just a dream" i whisperer relieved out loud, earning a glare form my two kittens.

It was a dream... about a piano recital and.. school?

looking at my alarm clock, I laugh quietly.

5:43 am

Thank god i don't have school toda... wait.

I look at the clock again.

5:44 am Tuesday, September 4th, 20XX

oh no..

Today is the first day. The first day of of high school

"Aaaugh!" I groan into my pillow. "How could I forget?"

turning over, I stare up at the ceiling. knowing I'm not going to fall back asleep anytime soon, I quietly, as to not wake up my parents or brother, get up and go to my closet.

Black jeans, black tee-shirt, black boots... maybe I should consider a little bit of couler. After rummaging around a bit, I find my favorite red jacket. There, done!

Wait, no. One more thing.

I pick up my lucky necklace from the nightstand. I gently put the red string around my neck and look at the jade Buddha on the end.

Done

~~~~(about half an hour later)~~~~

"Alice! Time for breakfast"

hearing my mom call me made me realise just how hungry I was, so I headed to the kitchen to eat.

As I sat down across from my little brother, my mother placed a small flat package in-front of me

Inside was a cat ear headband. It was black, with little silver sequins on the ears.

I gave my mom a huge hug as thanks and she, in turn whisperer in my ear;

"good luck my black cat."

I took my hair out of the pony tale it was in and put the headband on. Giving a somewhat confident smile, I turned around.

My name is Alice Mao Long and I'm ready now for high school.

I think
