WAS IT cloud nine? paradise? heaven?
every moment since saturday night felt surreal.
come monday everything had just become easier: she had an a in calculus, everyone in her classes at long last call her by her name, the kid next to her in biology had finally decided to take a shower, the lunch food was still ass but at least she had friends
she barely paid attention to whatever they were talking about during lunch, she was too busy trying to finish her homework so that when she got home, her and leo could go out but she couldn't help but pick her head up at their current conversation
"mrs. winchester looks so depressed you guys, i feel bad," youth said with a frown sadness did not go well with the darkskin beauty
"i'm surprised she showed up to school today" mike added, munching on his chips
"what happened to her?" everyone but ruby stared at kim in surprise, ruby sighs saying, "her dad was murdered yesterday"
kim's eyes shift to mrs. winchester, who had just entered the cafeteria, she looked terrible.
her ponytail brought attention to the features on her face; her eyes were light red and watery, her mascara was slightly smudged and her lips looked dry from licking them so much
"murdered?" kim repeats, eyes still on her principal who went to grab an apple from the lunch line while avoiding everyone's eyes, "mhm. what makes it worse, she's the one who found him bleeding out."
kim glances over at ruby in shock before she looks back at her principal; cici's eyes meet hers and kim freezes but winchester breaks their eye contact once she leaves the cafeteria.
kim was distracted as she walked into the girls locker room after school for soccer practice:
almost all the members of the team were there, getting changed for the arduous hours ahead of them
kim was dressing when she noticed that some girls were either whispering or side-eyeing her; harryelle giggles to grace after their eyes meet what was going on?
kim, now fully dressed in her practice attire, shut her locker forcefully and turned around to face them
"ayo, what's up?" kim announces loudly, earning herself silence from everyone else. kim laughs humorlessly, "oh so now y'all quiet?"
