I got home from the satanic lair of evil that is school.

My mom came up to me. "Hey, Vic!"

I was able to muster up a halfhearted smile for my mom.

"I know." My mother understood my pained look. "But school's almost over, right?"

I nodded.

"Well, you should probably get started on your homework." Mom suggested.

I nodded again.

I got started on my homework, just as my mom told me to. I grinned at the thought of all those kids doing their ELA homework. I wished more teachers punished the kids for bullying me. I wished more teachers were like Ms Hart, where i could just show them how hard my life really is. But qui est juste la vie.

I wish a lot of things. I wish my life wasn't so sucky. I wish I could talk. I wish those assholes at school wouldn't bully me. I wish my homework was finished.

But oh well. Complaining about life won't help it get better.

After doing the first 5 math problems on my homework, i decided that i didn't want to do any more homework. I stood up and put away my homework. Eh, I'd finish it in school before class. I hope.

I walked upstairs to my bedroom. I wanted to be alone for a while. I needed a break from people.

I sauntered inside my sanctuary. My beautiful sanctuary that was my bedroom. I had everything i needed in there. I had a mini fridge stocked with juice boxes and those small dixie cup ice cream things, a small pantry filled with snacks and some dinner crap that i could eat up here whenever i was blowing off steam and didn't want to be around people, and a TV and computer.

Yeah, I thought with smug satisfaction. I could totally survive the zombie apocalypse in here. I then laughed at the thought.

I plopped on my bed and grabbed my journal. Before opening it, i ran my hand over the designs and glyphs that were drawn into the leather all over the front and back cover. I didn't know what the glyphs meant, or if they even had a meaning, but they still looked graceful and elegant, but also mysterious. I then opened the journal.

I almost had a heart attack right there.

Right beside the word i wrote this morning, was another word. I knew i hadn't written it, plus it was in a different handwriting.

Greetings
