Hannah's POV
*****
….
Hannah!!
Hannah!!!!!
Ha...nnah
I feel an aggressive pat on my leg three times,
Hannah? My mother calls me, breaking me away from my relaxing and calming sleep.
Wakey wakey, you're gonna be late for school honey.
Honey?
I scoff with an unpleasant surprised look on my face,
When did I become honey? I asked to try to get my head up to process what's going on.
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday to youuuu
Happy birthday Happy Birthday Happy Birthday to youuuuuuuuuuuuuuu
Fully awake with my wonderful decorated room filled with my sister Chloe, my mum Mrs Scarlett, my dad Mr Ethan James and an unknown attractive male whom I have never seen before.
Birthday songs echoing all over my room causing me a minor headache and confusion, heart full of surprises, I have never been the type to enjoy birthday celebrations, they're like a burden to me, a reminder to get my life together. It sounds so cliché considering I am just 13 but that's how I've always felt.
13 looks good on you Hannah,
My mother comments snapping me into reality, immediately I feel liquid rushing through my whole body soaking my bed and sheets,
"Cold water!!! Seriously?
That's when I realized my family just spilled a whole full bucket of icy water on me as a birthday prank.
It has always been like a birthday tradition for the Parker family. We prank the celebrant by spilling water on them on their birthday, it used to be exciting and fun growing up but I find it really annoying presently, maybe because I'm not 5 anymore lol I chuckled.
Mom, it's just June 7, nothing special. I stated,
standing up from my wet bed to prepare for school. I'm already late. I hope my school understands at least it's my birthday, give me a break school, I wish.
My once peaceful morning turned into a chaotic messy celebration, my heart pounding rapidly for no reason, mixture of irritation and little excitement, I'm finally 13, I sighed.
I stood up approaching my bathroom and almost slipped but held myself back on embarrassment, a little cold, my clothes dripping wet on my floor and glued to my skin, my underwear and breast revealing and can be clearly seen, making me a little nervous and shy, I know, how can I be shy In front of my own family, well that's how I have always been, always shy and introverted.
Chloe grins mischievously while my parents chuckles, the unknown attractive male glances at me and smirks which puzzles me, I'm assuming he is my sister's new boyfriend. Chloe changes boyfriends like rain falls, I hope this one lasts and I wonder in my thoughts, at times I feel jealous wondering if I would ever get a boy to like me.
I let out a visible and somewhat loud sigh, heading into my bathroom almost slipping again in embarrassment, I slammed the door as hard as I could.
I could hear them leaving and laughing loudly at my dad's joke having some unclear conversations.
Clean your room little angel, Chloe says sarcastically.
I brushed my teeth with a tired face staring at myself in the mirror on my bathroom wall, I sigh with relief spiraling all over my body, finally they've left me alone.
Climbing down the stairs making enough noise to get everybody's attention.
No no no I don't want you to take me to school, I will walk to school,
Okay darling, suit yourself.
I thought my mum was going to beg me if I said she shouldn't drop me off at school, I guess she has had enough of my independent ass.
I'm always claiming I don't need help, I can do things all on my own.
She drops off her coffee cup, picks her car keys from the kitchen canter without giving me a glance and she exits the house heading to her car.
Okay fine, drive me to school
Whatever, she laments and makes her usual expression showcasing she's had enough of me.
I follow her to the car frowning like I hate life.
I could hear my dad saying something, as I came further I began to hear him clearly,
It's your birthday darling, it's not the end of the world you know, stop giving everybody that attitude,
Good morning Dad
I guess you're just seeing me now, he nods finishing his sentence.
Hannah enough of delaying me, you can't make me late with your dumbass,
I'm coming mum'
I throw my backpack to the back seat and head for the front seat as quickly as I can before my mum changes her mind and leaves me. I will be screwed even though I claimed I could walk to school, my school is far from where I live making it impossible to walk to school.
I hate school jeez must I go to school? can't I just be a high school drop out? As I opened the car door, my mum had this "don't you dare" look on her face and I looked away pretending not to know why her expression got so bad.
My parents are super tolerant but to a limit.
I sometimes feel like the outcast of the family, completely opposite of Chloe at least that's what everybody says.
I could easily be a victim of anything.
"Soft"
That's the perfect word to describe me.
"I want a boyfriend"
I lashed out loudly without thinking twice.
My mum gives me the bombastic side eye look,
Hannah you just turned 13 for God sake, what do you mean you need a boyfriend?
Are you lonely? you're still a child, I've told you multiple times that you can't have a boyfriend till you're 16 at least.
But what about Chloe? I said in a low voice
my decision is final besides Chloe is mature.
but..you let her date before she was 16.
there's no but here, this conversation is over and should never be brought up again, be warned Hannah.
I will come earlier to pick you up from school for your birthday party, invite your friends.
I sat through the ride silently with thoughts running through my mind, everywhere became blurry and I realized I was about to cry, I held myself careful not to spill any tears, it's my special day after all.
Oh my sweet Jesus
Hannah, what are you wearing? It's your birthday princess, you should be on suit or a Cinderella gown but here you are dressed like a cartoon back up character"
Happy birthday to me Rose Bonnet
Is this how much you care? While raising an eyebrow up in curiosity, what a great way to wish your best friend a happy birthday?
Happy birthday to you'
you're growing some nerves, hahaha Rose laughs and gives me a hug.
I felt at ease like the hug was just what I needed to start the day.
Rose has always been my closest friend, although we're not officially best friends but we see each other as one.
We are not close enough to share each other's secrets but we are pretty close.
I like her a lot.
She is funny, beautiful, brave, confident and always elevates my spirit, she's always there for me during hard times.
I know I'm pretty much too young to talk "about going through a lot"
But the truth is that, if you're alive then at some point you're bond to feel overwhelmed and unhappy at some decisions or life in general, well that's how I have always felt until I met "Liam Alexander Davis"
