BLACK AND WHITE BLACK AND WHITE WORLD WORLD
It was only a few days ago when I met my best friend. Shes sweet, kind, nice and she has super blond hair. Her name is Charlotte. Charlotte and I are only 16 years old, we re both in the 11th grade and so far, it s been good for Charlotte but not for me because I haven t told her my secret. It all started a long time ago. I was new to the school, I didn t know anyone and after what happened to me, the world has become all black and white to me and I can t tell you why yet, but anyways as I was saying the first day of school I walked into class and saw this girl and that girl is Charlotte, she has green eyes, blond hair, wearing a yellow dress with red shoes and she was the one who let me be myself in elementary school. I m just a boy with dark brown hair, blue eyes and pale skin with a black t-shirt and pants I m no ordinary person I m different. More days passed by and Charlotte finally came up to me and said: Hey I m Charlotte, what s your name? Nate, I said. Ooh love the name Thanks, I said. Charlotte kept going on and on asking basic questions like where I m from, what sports I m into and much more. We talked for hours and hours. It s so weird because when I m around Charlotte I m finally myself.
One day I was walking to school and I was looking at this tree, it was no ordinary tree, this tree had colour all around it. The thing is that I can only see everything in black and white and that s it but today was the day that I saw that tree, it was green, brown, yellow, red it was wonderful. As I kept looking at the tree I was thinking to myself why can I see this tree in colour and not anything else and then it hit me, I can see this tree because someone has changed my perspective to see the world and to not think dark thoughts all the time and that someone is Charlotte. The next day at school it was lunch time and I went up to Charlotte and said: hey Charlotte, is that okay if I sit with you and your friends? Charlotte smiled and said yes , soon after I felt uncomfortable sitting with Charlotte and her friends just because I got a weird vibe from them and I could feel them whispering behind my back so I just told Charlotte I was leaving to go to the bathroom but then I never went back because I was scared. A few hours later as I walking out of school Charlotte came up to me and said hey Nate where did you go at lunch I lied to her and said I had to catch up on homework, after I said I had to catch up on homework I just walked away from Charlotte and I didn t even say by. I was mad at the world I didn t want it to be this away, I was just scared, scared of being judged, scared of seeing the world in black and white, scared of having no friends. After talking to Charlotte, I decided to walk home and then I checked my phone and realized I got a text and a phone call from Charlotte my only friend asking if I wanted to hangout and she also asked if I was okay, I got mad and didn t answer her.
Its the weekend I should probably get up and do something with my life because I live one of the nicest places in the world New York City, Manhattan, I moved here just a few months ago and I m noticing that New York is so beautiful because we have the pizza, the shopping, the celebrities and Times square but I can t enjoy any of that because all I want to do is lay in my bed. It s now 2 pm and I woke up to a call from Charlotte I answered it being all moody and said Hello? Hey it s Charlotte obviously, but I just wanted to apologize for the other day, I just realized my friends were being so stupid and I m sorry I didn t talk to you a lot, I m just not so used to having a new friend but anyways I just wanted to call and ask you if you want to hang out? I replied with yes sure and don t worry about the other day okay great let s meet at Times square at 3 pm. Okay.
I arrive at Times square at exactly 3 pm I see Charlotte, she looks so cute with her little red top and blue skirt and all I m wearing is black. Charlotte runs up to me all happy and she asked me so what do you want to do today? I don t know surprise me . Turns out we walk all around the city, talking for a long time, shopping at Charlotte s favourite expensive stores while she tries on dresses and I sit on the couch telling her that the dresses look great even though they don t, we eat some good old New York pizza and even visit Dylan s candy bar and pick up a whole bag of candy plus two giant lollypops, I could say that has probably been the best day ever for me. Charlotte and I were just walking on the street and we see two cars crash I immediately run away and leave Charlotte stranded in the middle of Times Square. That s right my big secret is out and here it is. A few months ago before we moved to New York we were originally from New Jersey and we were just driving one day on the way to my grandparent s house when some drunk guy crashed into us and my mom was killed from that car crash and ever since that has happened, my dad has been bottling up his emotions and he takes out his anger on me and I ve become so upset that I decided to think bad thoughts and see the world in black and white because bad things happen to good people and there is no colour without my mom.
Charlotte called again asking what happen to me in New York I didnt tell her all I said to her is that were not friends, she was so upset but I didn t care. The next day at school I made eye contact with Charlotte and she just looked away, I knew I upset her so I tried to go and talk to her to explain but she just slapped me across the face and then walked away, now I am in pain. Later, I was in a better mood so I decided to grab a taxi and head to Times square to grab Charlotte a present just because I was being so rude to her, I decided to grab her favourite candy at Dylan s candy bar and some roses. At 6 pm I rush over to Charlotte s house and I knock on her door and she answers the door I quickly drop off the stuff and leave but she insists I come inside so I do.
I began later to explain to Charlotte why I been losing my temper and acting all weird, it was because of the car crash accident and my dad, she then hugs me so hard it fills me with joy, she said she is here for me and I can tell her anything if I ever need help and after that we soon became best friends and did everything together. It was a beginning of a new friendship which I will never lose and I forgot to mention that I can now see the whole world in colour again thanks to Charlotte. Charlotte reminded me of someone and that someone was my mom because my mom was the only one who could make me smile or laugh and make me see the world in colour. The end.
