Day: 1. July 2010

My name is Fathom. I’m only ten but I have an interesting life. Trust me, I know interesting.

I stare at the big brick building standing before me. I turn around. My dad left me…….again. My mixed emotions tell me be ready for a bossy Febe, mean Megan, and best buddy Madison. “Hi,Fathom.” said Madison.”Hey,Madison” I reply, signaling to the stairs,” You first.”  “Why?” with her you-are -older-and-smarter-than-me look. “Because………………ummmmmm………………..uh,well,”Drat! She got me! “Ha! Got you!” she says…………we start cracking up at that remark. “Let’s go together.”  “Go where?” said a voice behind us. We turn around.  Madison says, “Oh-no.” “Race ‘ya!” I reply, halfway up the stairs. We lose Febe in a sea of students. “We lost her! Whoa!” I say, tripping down the stairs,grabbing a backpack. “Let go of me, you twit!” said Megan, grabbing a frightend Madison. I let go of Megan before I fall.  Madison and Megan tumble to the bottom. I run to my classroom before the bell rings for lunch count. I run to the window.  Megan walks in the classroom,unharmed, Madison, on the other hand, with a big gash on her leg. Everyone staring at another victim of the meanie Megan.
