It was an ordinary day like any other. Students shuffled into class, kids laughing obnoxiously and slamming their lockers with effortless force. They chatted down the halls, some lingering with their boy friend or girlfriend, stealing a kiss or grope or two. All she intended on doing was focusing on what the board in front of her had written. Trista Morreti kept her eyes focused on the board, barely edging a glance down at the notes she scrawled in pencil. Within moments, class was dismissed, and it was time to leave, something the seventeen year old was relieved over. The slim and slender brunette headed towards her locker, grabbing her things and heading towards the library.
After two hours of nonstop homework, she noticed a peculiar book that caught her attention. It looked old, fragile, bound by worn leather with a title she wasn't sure on pronouncing. Without another moments of hesitation, she grabbed the book and left for home. Once arriving home, she headed upstairs, dropping her things, and moving to her room to shower. She gazed at her face, which was smooth, her skin cream color, her eyes a light hazel. She rubbed her face before finally turning her attention to the book that caught her interest.
Trista flipped through pages, not able to understand many of them until one page, which she felt call out to her. She brushed her fingertips against the pages, and slowly began to chant the words, dimming her bedroom light before she spoke the tantilizing words. Trista admitted to feeling a rush of emotion through her, then nothing. She arched a thin brow, 'Well?' she thought, looking around. Nothing but silence. Stifling a sigh, she tossed the book onto her desk, pulling on a tee shirt, and pajama pants, before moving into her bed, curling up under the covers, and fell asleep.
