Owl's Glint

Another day and another way from the Pretty Patties find some stupid prank to pull on me. Almost every day they seem to come up with different ways to torture me just for “the laughs” as they say. It’s been exactly three years since I moved here and close to two years when they started all this pranking business on me but today on the other hand was mute for them. Just to steal my umbrella in gym class seems a bit mediocre compared to dumping a whole box of raw egg whites in my hair a few days ago. Oddly enough everything they do is overshadowed by just the mere sight of Darwin standing at my front door today. Walking in the soaping rain to see him at the door sent shudders in my heart and who would have guessed with such a sweet delicate face he has can change so quickly to a full bouquet of roses just by seeing me wet from the rain.
