Dear Diary,
I am so peed off today. I was nervous. I was so nervous, I almost made myself sick. But that was then, this is now. He had no right to – oh wait I have not said who 'he' is, I guess that would help, wouldn't it? Also, if I started from the beginning, it might help even more I bet.
Okay so I have gone over the fact that my true identity has been finally revealed, and my family was discovered to have been living right here in Destiny City for the last year. So, anyways…
Mrs. Gnozzi, and Laurie told me yesterday and again this morning, that when school let out, I was to stand by the old Oak Tree, with the brown bird house, and my brother, Andrew (Drew) would join me there and walk with me to the Bones residence, where I would spend the rest of the week. I had to be careful, as the press was now in on this, although they were banned from the school premises, and forbidden by City Council to come within 6 blocks of our schools, the foster home, and the Bones' residence. They also said to ignore the other girls.
So well, I was a mess today. Four years of knowing nothing about yourself is almost like spending time in solitary, and the beginning of that? A year of horrendous pain, no memories, no language; a year spent as an infant. Before that? Nothing. Absolutely nothing.
And today? I was to go with a family that knew me quite well up until four years ago. I may never regain my memories of them. Even my identical twin. I think it was very understandable that I was quite nervous. But some of the more noticeable girls (we're not supposed to say popular) have always thought I am a 'freak' and this made it worse. But somehow I made it through the day.
I was waiting for Drew, under the Old Oak trying to contain myself, when this random guy from Hillworth Grammar (I could tell by the uniform), walked up and stuck his big, fat nose where it did not belong. First, asking questions spurred by curiosity, he seemed not to know the 'juicy' gossip, that just about the entire town knew about me. So obligingly, I started telling him bits and pieces of my story.
The nerve of him! He kept making comments about I should be happy about all this! And that it meant freedom. I wanted to slap him. But I didn't. I tried to walk away but he wouldn't let me. I saw both Drew (who at the moment didn't notice this jerk) and Sister Nerise (who did and was just about flying (for a Sister) towards me to help. Then he made the Comment – the one about if Drew and I were really identical twins, we couldn't be boy and girl. Either Drew was a girl, or I was a boy. Sister Nerise was in shock about the comment, but she was still too far away to do anything. I though, had had enough, even with Sister Nerise there. I punched him in the gut and turned away.
I turned towards Sister Nerise, to learn what punishment would befall me for such violence, but instead, she smiled and flashed me a thumbs up sign. Shaking my head in disbelief, I ran to catch up with Drew.
I'm still frustrated.
