Introduction of character
My name is Celesta D'Arcy just 15years old... A school girl. The meaning of my name is Heaven. Heaven? No,there's nothing heavnly in my life...just pain,loneliness and that secret that sets me apart from the world.
(It was morning.In the school lane,kids were laughing,joking and the noise buzzing everywhere.somewhere,I could hear the sound of a cricket ball bouncing I was walking slowly,step by step with a strang heaviness in my heart.with every breath,the world reminded me that i am different.)
A gentle gust of wind blew...my hair swayed lightly in the warm breeze,and for a moment,it felt like the wind would carry away my secret and reveal it to everyone.
(in my mind, a dry laugh escapes)
"Funny,isn't it....the world feels the Wind,but everyone fears feeling me."
when i reached my classroom door,all eyes fixed on me for a moment,And then...back to their own worlds,As if I'm just a passing shadow,As if i don't even exist.
I started walking towards my seat.Then a sharp voice rang in my ears
( A girl to her friend):
"hey....don't go there,don't sit near celesta,come here,quickly."
My heart sunk a little.My feet stopped but on my face I wore my usual mask.The normal celesta.
I looked towards the classroom.The three benches infront were empty. The three in the back were empty. All around me,everything was empty.
(Inner voice):
"Look...as if I'm some disease.As if even my scent is poison.Everyone's avoiding me....but I can't escape myself anywhere"
Just then,another gust of wind blew inside. The pages started fluttering,a couple of papers fell to the ground. Outside the window, a crow was perched. As if it was staring right at me..
My eyes slowly closed,and inside one thought kept echoing:
" why?becuse I have HIV..."
This wasn't just a secret . It was the truth of my life that. I drown in day and night. A truth that sets me apart from everyone. A truth that turns my name Heaven into a cruel joke.
(Extended)
(The big iron gate of the school - Lyćee Louis-le-Grand , with a crowd of students and a gentle breeze. A boy on his shoulder and a starnge calm in his eyes. This is the kind of school rich kids get easily , but people like us earn it through hard work. By the way , this is Lucien Daskbane.)
Lucien (in his mind):
"so....this is the new place. New school,new faces. And new battles. People say everyone's nervous on the first day....but me? I'm a bit confused. I mean.. I came here to study, but looking at this crowd, it feels like I've wandered into some fair."
My name is Lucien Daskbane.yeah yeah , i know...the surname sounds vampire-like.just yesterday, someone DM'd me:'Bro,are you Edward Cullen's cousin?' Guess I've already got fans.
By the way,truth be told,i don't make many friends. I mean....people think I'm funny, a bit weird too,but I'm just simple. And with girls? Yeah, i talk when needed...otherwise,no .I respect them,but unnecessary hello-hi....that's not in my dictionary still,rumors spread that I'm rude.Hey bro, I'm not rude, just selective.
(walking towards the classroom,spotting empty bench spots):
"I don't know,people always look like they're having a blast in groups...but i think real fun is in the silence. Backbench,diary,and a breeze from the window....that's my party.Anyway....I'm more of a guy for those thought that sneak around quietly in my mind."
(stops for a moment with a faint smile):
"And honestly....sometimes I think,maybe. I'm a bit weird for the world. But I feel like....this is my chapter one."
His eyes land on heroine "celesta" for a moment-she's sitting alone in a corner. The wind has just written the first word in their story.
"To be continued....."
