"Hey May",my mom said cheerfully and weird,"Umm....hi?," I said. As if I didn't have enough problems."close your eyes eh," she said..and so I did. I felt around and I found it to be rectangular shaped and smooth, I opened my eyes and found it to be a very strange book with a mirror on the cover.I stared at my mom for a second and asked her"Hmph what is this? What? You want me to start writing down my feelings eh? So you can see how I really think so that you can finally understand how I feel about you?"My mom just looked at me and then stared at the book and her eyes started tearing and she kept touching her head as if there was something she missed, and she started to bite her lip...I though she was going to pierce through. She relaxed a little and summoned enough strength to stand up and say "May...I know you might not love me but I'M TRYING GOD DAMMIT!....I am...it's so hard..you don't know how hard it is,I'm sorry but acting childish won't bring your father back to life...I know it's hard..that book is special... it's suppose to tell how you feel..I thought about you when I bought it since, like you I'm confused about my feelings..all I want is for this house to be in peace...Happy Birthday May,"then she kissed my head. Why do parent's make you feel so horrible eh? Aah! No fair no fair no far! Well might as well use it since she went through the trouble and tears. For three whole minutes all I could do was stare at the book...what am I suppose to do with it? How does the mood thingy work?I thought for a while and then I hopped on my computer and searched on Google and I kept getting spam messages. Arg! I can't ask my mom how this junk works,I guess...I can always go to the library.I picked up the book and ran downstairs."Hey mom? I'm going to the library okay?," we stared at each other for a second and she responded "Come back soon dinner is almost ready okay?," and she smiled at me.Now back to me and so I rushed to the library to search on what type of book this can be.
When I arrived at the library I checked with the librarian and she searched in her database, the freaky part was when she type in the characteristics of the book...there was a power shortage. Weird eh? well this made me more interested in the book and so I told the librarian to not worry that I'll search about it on my own. Heh I guess carrying a flashlight pays off. I search everywhere in the library, but found nothing. That's when it hit me, there was a girl who had the same book sitting just a few tables from me. I calmly walk up to her and said "Uh what are you reading if I may ask?" she looked at me and then searched in her purse to fetch her cellphone and she glared the light in my face."Umm excuse me can't you see I can't associate with a low life like you and by the way I bet you caused the power shortage with your bad atmosphere," to my surprise the voice was familiar and then i remembered. Oh god..I forgot it was Cherrie who had that book.
Me and her used to be friends in second grade, but one day she just started getting mean and hung out with the popular girls and then she started smoking and doing bad things."Umm I'm just wondering since I have the same book at home and uhh I don't know how to use it...mind helping me ...please,"she looked straight into my eyes and said "Heh it's pointless for me to ignore you so what the heck, I'm guessing you attempted to do research on this book right? Well the thing is rumors have it that these books appeared out of no where, the book is not even listed and strange things happen when you try to look for more information. What i have so far is that if you close your eyes and place your hand on the mirror surface it will start to magically draw a drawing on the first empty page and it will draw something closely related to your feelings...that's what I have gathered so far." I just stared at her as if she was my history teacher...when did she start to say smart things..am I really that stupid."So uhh can you show me samples of these drawing?"
"Sure," she said. I was relieved since I'm dying to know. She opened the book to the first page and on the page was a drawing of an icy blue eye...it was scary...yet beautiful at the same time. I have never seen anything like it before. "Oh the neat thing is that if you tilt the book back and for the the eyes shimmer. See?" As I looked at the eyes something in me was pressuring my head and then my nose started to feel tingly and I couldn't breathe and I had a pain in my heart that was too much...so I fell to the ground and cried...I just cried in the dark. What happened to me? "May! May! are you okay!" What's this voice I hear...is it Cherrie, It is! Why does she sound worried...why do i feel sleepy all of a sudden and her voice started to fade away...why...can't I........breathe.
