LOGINAlready dark and deserted on the streets, in the sudden pouring summer rain, we came to a densely built-up row of houses and stopped.
"So you two. We are there. Get out and run to the large, colorful wooden gate. You will wait for me there for a short time until I have fetched the remaining suitcases ”, Joe said in a deep voice, very relaxed.
Said. Done. We hurried, with our pastries, into a white rented building at number 7 b.
Wow, I've never seen anything like it. Everything looked so different and strange, flashed through my mind as we waited in the hallway for Joe.
We stood on the floor in a covered passage with colorful tiles. What felt like 20 mailboxes were hanging on the wall and the light in the ceiling flickered a bit strange. You could legendarily hear a couple of cats hissing at each other and the beeping of Joe's car as he had just locked it.
A small gust of wind came and Joe led us, once again, briefly through the rain, to a brick house with a blue wooden door in it. In the small and dark backyard there were legendarily a few bicycles and garbage cans on the left.
“Walk into the parlor and welcome to your new home. Have a look around. Your room is upstairs, by the way, Preston, ”said Joe and turned on the light.
I dropped my bags in amazement and looked around in disbelief.
Suddenly there was soft music everywhere. Joe disappeared backwards with the luggage under his arm. Tesa took off her shoes and hurried after him with another bag in hand.
Madness, what a contrast to that weird entrance. But he actually had a large modern apartment over two floors. For once, Mum hadn't promised too much.
I slowly took off my shoes and could not keep my curious looks from the new domicile. It all seemed so unreal somehow.
The walls were painted uniformly a warm mustard yellow everywhere. The entire interior was in the style of a country house. Basically, I was already in the kitchen and living room at the same time. The entire floor was made of dark real wood. Behind me was the blue front door, which somehow gleamed white from the inside. To my right was the cloakroom, with a huge standing mirror next to it. On the other side was a large flower that was supposed to serve as a kind of room divider. Behind it were the long two steps that put the kitchen on a gallery and ran through to the spiral staircase.
The L-shaped kitchen was white and made entirely of wood. In the middle there was a kitchen island with a table and black leather bar stools. There was also a wooden corner with four chairs. As I walked a little further into the middle of the hallway, on the far left, next to the refrigerator and the pharmacy cabinet, I discovered a white wooden door. A pantry was probably hidden behind it.
My head swiveled slowly to the right, where it flowed into the living room at ground level and further open, without doors. In front of me was a gigantic living area, made of brown, coarse fabric. Right on the opposite wall was a gigantic, luxurious-looking flat screen television, on the wall. Left and right of them were a couple of light wooden shelves lined up as a wall unit with a number of odds and ends and decorations.
A muffled laugh rang out to my ears, as if from nowhere. I crept all the way to the back, past the matt black metal spiral staircase to the left and looked inside through a crack in the door, a door that was ajar. So this was the bedroom, I thought to myself. I saw Tesa and Joe lying half-naked on the bed, kissing passionately and fooling around.
However, I felt a little nauseous at this sight and preferred to turn immediately to the only door that was still unknown to me. I barely audibly opened it. A modern, spacious bathroom including a shower and bathtub emerged.
I climbed the spiral staircase as silently as possible. Once there, I leaned against the railing and wandered down again briefly. The gallery is awesome, it came out of me quietly.
My room was just on the left. On my door there was a not overlooked sign with my name written in graffiti on it. I decided in advance, for myself, to be the last to inspect my kingdom. So I left my bags and suitcases in front of the door and slowly walked on.
First I went into the room opposite. Behind it was a small bathroom with a shower. There was a walk-through room right next to the bathroom. In the front there was an ironing room with a washer and dryer. The back one was probably Joe's study. Right next to my room was a guest room with some fitness equipment.
But have looked around enough now. Now I finally wanted to examine my room.
"Wow!" I burst out as I took the doorknob in my hand and opened it with a flourish.
I've never had a room this big to myself before. It was crazy. I finally had a fully furnished room where nothing was broken. I had, in fact, navy blue walls, exactly like the photos. My room seemed gigantic to me because there was an L-shaped, dark gray sofa with a table in front of it in the middle. Next to the door of my room I had two pegs and next to it was a sliding door wardrobe in high gloss with gray stripes. My eyes moved on to the bed.
When I noticed the page was soaked in blood, I had to stop. I couldn't write any more. My action at that moment was frozen by the sight. My right hand and my ballpoint pen were already covered in blood. I closed my eyes and closed the book first, pushed it under my bed before I got up and then quietly but quickly scurried into the bathroom. Once there, I frantically washed my hands and my left forearm. Two of the cuts were even deeper than expected. Immediately I went to the closet and packed the basket with bandages under my arm, with, to my room. There I bandaged my forearm. Then I did the same with my right hand.I needed another cigarette. My body started shaking and obviously seemed to be in withdrawal. I lit a butt and immediately took the first draft. Immediately I felt my racing heartbeat calm down and I buried my bound hand in my pocket.It was already quite late in the evening. Suddenly my mum was standing in my room. In my life I hadn't expected her any
Damn it, what was he doing here now? My head moved to the side and I noticed that the boys from the parallel class have also arrived here. Obviously we had sports together. Great!"Then pay close attention, Raul. You better let go of me now and never touch me again! I definitely don't want any stress with you here! Just leave me alone and you better get out of my way! And by the way, I want to have my jacket back right away, ”I replied meekly and tore myself away from the guy in panic. I couldn't bear to be touched anymore. I was aloof!Raul looked at me from head to toe before he let go of my collar and immediately grabbed my left arm when I reflexively wanted to turn away from him. I caught my breath in shock, so that I could hardly breathe.“I really want to, for you, Preston hope. Oh, look at that. Our fagot is even an emo! It also cuts itself! Are you going to cry in a corner now? Why do you actually do something stupid? You are probably not tha
The radio jumped on and said something about 30 degrees and bright sunshine. As soon as I opened my eyes and wanted to switch off the alarm clock, pleasant music started playing and I turned on the other side."Preston do I have to wake you every day? Get up and come down," came Joe's stern voice."Hmm ... I'll be right there," I muttered, pressing my head into the pillow again."I hope so," he replied and audibly left the floor.Oh man, I didn't feel like going to school, I thought to myself and slowly tormented myself. I mean, after yesterday's botched school start, I couldn't look forward to having to go there again. Because I didn't necessarily want to experience more embarrassments again.Completely sleepy, I padded to the closet, pulled some fresh clothes out of the closet and strolled with them into the bathroom. Finished washed and styled, I examined my hair one last time in the mirror. One, two, three strands that fell annoyingly in my fac
Preston o`Connor! It's a shame that we have to get to know each other like this. This is your first day of school and you are already getting noticed. I don't even want to know what you have to say about it. Not to mention because of them Raul Hamton! You will both be warned! I will contact your parents and inform them of this incident. If this happens again, I'll give you a reprimand! And now go back to your classes. The conversation is over! ”, The burly older man with dark brown short hair and a beard explained to us."Please excuse the inconvenience, Mr. Brown," I said quietly and Raul apologized as well. We both got up and went outside without a word."We are far from finished Preston," Raul warned me and disappeared.I also strolled back to my class, shaking my head.At my old school, I was the gangster who always hung out with high school students. The girls flew on me in a row and I never had any problems finding followers. You only needed t
Hi you pretty ones. How are you? ", I asked overpowering the group.“Good and yourself?” One of them wanted to know."Girls. This is Preston. Preston that's Hannah, Michaela, Antonia and Paula. You already know my BBF Betti and me. Hannah and Antonia are in our parallel class, ”Laura introduced me to the girls, one after the other, starting from the left."Hi," I replied legendarily.“And did you arrive safely? How do you like school so far? Now I finally have the pleasure to talk to you. Our new one in the class, "Paula immediately poked me."Yes, everything is great. It's just a little strange having to get up so early in the morning, Paula. My school always started at nine, ”I explained patiently."What really? You had it good Why did you move to Germany? You lived in America ”, this Paula continued to bombard me."You look really cute", Hannah whispered suddenly, with a bright red head in betwee
Yes, Ms. Brown," I couldn't bring myself to say so easily.“Your class is 10 F. The class leader is called Ms. Liebhold. Unfortunately, I can't leave here at the moment, because I'm alone and waiting for an important call. But I'm sure you will find your own class. It's also very easy. You have to go upstairs next to our office, to the first floor and left to the very back. On the wall, next to the classrooms, are the classes and the cables on them. If I am not mistaken, it should be the third or second door from the back on the right, ”she explained to me with illuminated hand movements."OK. Thank you. I'll find it, ”I replied and politely said goodbye.I followed their instructions and immediately found my new class at the penultimate door. I paused for a moment in front of the locked door. He took another deep breath and finally knocked haphazardly and entered."Um, good morning ... I'm Preston o´Connor. I ... I'm probably new
