I looked in the mirror. I looked like I did everyday. Dirty jeans. A red flannel shirt. Black boots. I put my deep red hair into a ponytail and put my fringe to the side. I walked down the stairs and into the kitchen.
My dad was sitting at the table on his laptop and my mom was cooking up pancakes. I looked just like my mom. But instead of a beautiful shade of green,my eyes were muddy brown. She smiled at me and I smiled back. I sat down at the table next to my 11 year old sister,Ashleigh. 'You ready for school,Olivia?' my dad asked me. I shrugged.'Not like I have much of a choice' I murmured as I ate my pancake. I was home schooled. Since I lived out in the middle of nowhere in England I didn't exactly have much of a choice. I never had any friends. Me and my sister were close enough.
My dad passed us both a sheet of math questions and we set to work. I was done first,of course. My sister was only on the third question. After a while my dad looked at me. 'Very Good,Liv. All Right.' He smiled his crinkly eyed smile. 'Meh' I shrugged. It wasn't exactly a newsflash. I always got top marks. While I waited for Ashleigh I decided to go outside for a bit. I asked my dad for permission and he agreed. I got up and opened the back door.
