A very irritating sound and a trembling feeling startle Chris, who starts to recover from his dream or maybe nightmare...
It's his phone.
"...."
With an irritating feeling, he stops the alarm clock on his phone and goes back to sleep.

06:50
A very irritating sound and a vibrating feeling from his phone startles Chris again.
He stops his alarm clock again.
Chris looks at the time on his phone and the battery, 06:58 45% it shows. He quickly put it on the charger.
Carefully he gets up and walks to his mirror. In the mirror, he sees a thin boy with black hair and dark brown eyes with large bags. When he carefully removes his t-shirt, he touches the wounds near his belly and feels a tingling.
As Chris walks to his closet he picks up a few pieces of clothing and new socks. He quickly changes his clothes and walks to his bin with lenses and puts them on.
My vision starts to improve and I can see like an average person again. I think.
After brushing my teeth I look at the time. 07:50 it shows.
"..."
After a few minutes, there is a sound from downstairs...
"CHRIS COME DOWN!"
My heartbeat started to get faster for some reason.. Sigh
After a few seconds, I grab my phone and go downstairs and look for my father but soon I see him on the couch. Quickly I walk over to him and stand in front of him.
"Took you long enough, can you go to the shop after school? We're out of bread bags and condoms. As a reward, you can keep some of the condoms. If you are ever going to use them."
Funny dad...
"Uhh... yes sure..."
"Good! Hey don't let them come to our house and I don't want any calls from your new school."
Chris walks away and takes a quick look at his phone. 08:05...
"SHIT"
Chris grabs his bag from upstairs and walks back downstairs and quickly puts on his shoes.
He quickly walks past his father and opens and closes the garden door. He puts his bag on his bike and-
A vibrating sound comes from his phone.
I am startled I quickly grab my phone from my pocket, and with a smile, I read a message from his friend whom he met online.
"Hi!!! Chris, good luck at your new school!!!¨
But my smile goes away when I look at the time. Quickly I put his phone back in his pocket and goes to his new school.

When I arrive at his school, I put my bike on the bicycle racks and see a lot of students around me. My heartbeat starts to go fast. As I start to feel sweat in my hands I walk inside the big building.
Thinking that everyone is watching me, I see a small man with a mustache waving at him. Sigh
After a few seconds, I walk up to him and start to introduce myself.
"Hi, I'm the Director of this school! Let's come to my office" Why did he sound so proud..
"Hi. Okay..." I'm already embarrassed..
I walk after him with tense legs, a few strange looks in his direction... Didn't expect anything better...
"Come on in, have a seat!"
"O.. Okay...",
"Allow me to introduce myself, my name is Spencer Rottenburg Director of Fairview High. And it's great to have you at our school! Christopher is your name, right?" He has such an expansive suit..
After a few minutes of talking about me and my class and the school, he gives me a class schedule and the keys to a locker... Oh, God...
"Over here! Your first class is in room 2IG3, which is right around the corner from here." 2IG3... How big is this school...
"Okay, thank you."
"No problem. Good luck in your class, and don't be too rough." Yeah, I'm rough for sure..
"Okay... Thank you."
With a confused face, I walk out of the office which to my surprise was way too big.
"Okay." This is going to be fine. As I said that I just felt my heart in my throat...
I can run away now and be done with it... and end it here.
No. This is going to be fine.

After a few minutes, I find the sign that says 2IG3... I take a deep breath while I have my hand on the door handle and knock on the door, then open it.
The whole class is looking at me and there is a tall man with a bald head standing in a corner by a desk. Meanwhile, there are children pointing at me and giggling... So the teacher just sees that but doesn't say anything... Good start...
"Hey!",
"H..Hi... I am new here..." I say in a voice that's way too tense...
"Okay CHRIS, my name is Ryoko Radl, please introduce yourself while you still have the time. " His smile scared me.
Shall I just run away... No. I'm just going to do it.
"O.. Okay. So my full name is Christopher-"
"SIR, IS HE THE CHRISTOPHER FROM ELSA, BUT THE FAILED GAY VERSION? HAHA" W-What...
H..How does he know I'm gay... W..What... Even the t-teacher is laughing...
W..What...
I ran out of the class... And kept running for a while...
Chris kept running for a while and it felt like he had been running through a large hall for 5 minutes. ¨How big is this school?¨
Finally, I saw a sign that said WC and went in. I ran into a toilet cubicle and threw my bag down.
Water was running out of my eyes... And my head was full. Suddenly I heard the door to the bathroom open...
Chris feels his heartbeat beating faster and faster. It felt like my heart was about to jump out of my body through my throat... With a face of shame, I quickly wiped my tears on my worn hoodie. I picked up my bag from the floor and quickly opened the door.
I didn't look forward for a second... All I saw was a dirty floor... I ran very fast to the sink and tried to pretend that I had just come from the toilet and went to the bathroom.
While I'm doing that I can feel eyes looking at me all the time... He probably wants to laugh but he finds it pathetic. What am I trying to do here anyway?
¨Um... Are you okay?" says an innocent, unfamiliar voice.
I slowly start to lift my head and start to see clean shoes. Adidas or something. I try to lift my head higher but somehow it doesn't work. And yes I know how silly this looks...
After I said that, three guys stormed in. My head was still stuck in the shoe stand...
¨Hey LUC! What have we here! Is this that boy who ran out of class crying at a joke? Wait don't tell me he went into the toilet crying like a girl!¨ Says an arrogant student from his class.
¨Wait CHRISTOPHER did you try to hit on LUC? HAHA!¨ Says someone standing next to the arrogant student.
Suddenly I heard someone hitting someone.
¨ It's not funny Victor, fuck off." says another unknown innocent voice.
I heard them walking away and gossiping in the meantime. Why did he do that... Who is he...
Suddenly I felt this strange warmth. The same warmth when my mom hugged me when I was little. Suddenly I started to lift my head and I saw a young student with a red hand. Did I give him the red hand?
Silence filled the toilet.
Staring at his red hand, I said shakily, "You should've just ignored me, I'm not worth it." I walked past him out of the toilet with no idea of what had just happened. I looked around and saw children staring at me. What have I got to thank for this...
I ran outside and ran in one direction. I didn't care where but I just wanted to get out of there... away from that school... While people were looking at me funny, I ran into a flat. I ran as fast as I could up to the roof.
"I'm not worth it. I'm not worth living... "
"Nobody would care if I wasn't there... No one would notice..."
"If they want me dead so badly, I'll gladly do it for them."
I walked slowly to the edge of the roof... I can't go on... I'm done.
...
I took a step forward and suddenly heard an innocent voice "I would notice if you were gone! Even if I don't know you very well..."
What... I looked back and saw a tall young man with tears in his eyes. Just let me go, I don't want to do this anymore... I looked back to the front again.
I took another step forward...
Muscular long arms went around my hip. "Stop! I don't want this! LET ME GO!"
"It's okay... I'm here."
I felt my heart stop for a second, I collapsed into his arms and felt his arms embrace me.
