Stranger in me
an excerpt

“How do I do this?” was one of the few words that were written on Sarah’s paper that was due in 5 minutes. It would earn her most of her credit for the year. Unlike many of her other classmates did she care that she would fail the first assignment she was given? Would you? After all her dad could help her in anything she did, he was obliviously one of the most powerful people in Septopia he was the one the only and no one could take that away from him. How lucky was he!

As these lovely thoughts were running through her head, she realised that one of her friends Madison was ‘trying’ to wake her. With Sarah that never ever works, many people have tried and even many more have failed. Now they all feel special!! Considering they are now having fun with the pretty clown and blue fish that inhabit this weird place she randomly calls home.

I probably should start with how I got to knowing Sarah and Madison but I think will leave that for later. For the moment I will say one thing about their lives they are anything but normal!

"Never take anything for granted"

Was what her mum said right before she died, in Sarah’s small arms.

As she was reflecting on this very vivid moment, she realised that she was staring out the window at the school nerd Joshua. Luckily, for her he did not notice her or else she would be in very big trouble! For one Joshua loved her (which for Sarah was very spine chilling) 2. Her best friend Madison actually liked that geeky nerd!!! What she saw in him Sarah could never see, but it was Madi’s own fault. Sarah was still staring at Joshua when he decided to look over at her direction and to her horror, he smiled and waved at her. Her of all people! The most popular most recognised person in Septopia (or at least she thought so)

Chapter 2

Joshua's mind was a buzz here Sarah the love of his life was stairing at him! He felt like he was on cloud 9 and nothing could bring him down,
