The Perfect Morning

 

It started off to be a good morning; I woke up to the sound of birds chirping, the air smelled fresh, the sounds of cars playing Beyonce's new song, “Flaws and All”. I started to sing along with the song as I stretched my body.

I don't know why you love me
And that's why I love you
You catch me when I fall
Accept me flaws and all
And that's why I love you

I looked at my prom dress hanging on the door. It was so beautiful . The dress was red with diamonds around the top of it. It was made to look like Cinderella's dress except with spaghetti straps. My fairy godmother came had over the day before and made the dress for me.

The Day Before

“So, do you like this design? It was the same design I used to make Cinderella's dress.”My fairy godmother showed me the design.

“I love it. Instead of the sleeves, I want spaghetti straps.” I pointed to the paper at the spot I was talking about.

“Ok. Let me make the dress for you. What color do you want?”

“I want my dress to be red.” I pointed to my shirt. “A red this shade.”

My fairy godmother waved her wand and the dress appeared before my eyes. My eyes lit up with joy.

“Thank you, fairy godmother, Thank you.” I ran and gave her a hug.

My fairy godmother had came into my life when I was little. When I did good in school, my fairy godmother was always there for me. When I turned seven, my fairy godmother gave me the power to talk to animals and to read minds. I also had the power to make things happen, when I pointed my finger.

My sister, Maya came in and look at my dress. My younger sister was only one year younger than me and was extremely jealous. Maya felt that I got everything I wanted. She hated that my dress was so perfect. She was jealous that my fairy godmother had came and made the dress. Maya's fairy godmother was never in town and never did anything for her. Her fairy godmother made her dress look like it was something a little kid would wear. It was orange with a bow in the middle and flowers all around it. She hated that I was beautiful,smart and I was everything she wanted to be.

I looked at my door and seen my sister standing there.

“What's up.” I asked her sister

“Nothing, looking at yo ugly dress.”Maya replied with an attitude.

“That's not what you are thinking in your head. You think that my dress is beautiful. You want a dress like mines. You are mad that your fairy godmother didn't make your dress the way you wanted.”

I got out of my bed and walked towards my closet. I pointed my finger at it and it opened.

“Why are you so perfect.” Maya looked me up and down

“I don't know”. I was just made that way.” I stepped into her closet and came back out dressed in a white and red outfit.

“Why were you ever born? Why couldn't you just die? If you were dead, I could have everything I wanted and more”. Maya said eying my dress.

“Could you just leave my room.” I pointed to the door and it opened up.

As she was walking out of the room, Maya snatched my dress off the door and ran into her room and locked it. I ran after her and started banging on the door.

“I'm giving you five seconds to open this door.” I started to bang harder.

“Five”

No response

“Four”

“Three,Two,One”

Still no response. I could've used my magic to open the door but I had an interview to go to. I went to my room and grabbed my purse.

“When I come home, my dress better be in my room on my bed.” I yelled through the door.

When I heard my sister's footsteps go down the stairs. I opened my door to make sure she was gone. I closed my door and started to look for my scissors. I planned on cutting up Serenity's dress until it was in pieces. I found the scissors and started to cut. As I was cutting the dress, the sun started to fade away and it became dark. The more I cut the dress, the more darker it became. When the dress was in pieces, Serenity's fairy godmother appeared in my room.

“Why did you do that to the dress?” The fairy godmother picked up the pieces.

“I was mad. I was mad that you didn't make my dress. I was mad that I don't have any powers like Serenity.” Maya started to sob and cry.

“You shouldn't do such nasty things to your sister.”

“What would happen if I don't stop.”Maya's tears kept coming.

Instead of her tears going down her face, they started going up her forehead. Maya tried to stop them, but couldn't. She looked aroun for Serenity's godmother and she was gone. The sky was black and Maya's ceiling tore off. The sky started raining steak knifes into her body. She couldn't run or scream. The knifes stabbed her countless times.

Two Hours Later

I walked up the stairs to my sister's room. I twisted the knob and the door was unlocked. I looked into the room and seen my sister laying there. All these knifes were around her. Her bedsheets were soaked with blood. She was dead. I pointed my finger at the bed and lifted her off the bed. I took her floating body into the backyard. I layed her stiff body in the grass. I made a hole in the ground and lifted her body in to it. I put some flowers over the dirt and went back inside. I pointed my finger at all the pictures she was in and made her disappear. I went outside of her room and said a couple of words and her whole room was a faint memory. My parents got home and asked me to come down the stairs.

“How are you doing, Serenity?” My father asked me.

“I'm doing good and you?” I crossed my legs.

“We have something to tell you.” My mother walked over to me.

“Yes, mother what is it.”

My parents looked at each other and smiled.

“WE'RE HAVING A BABY.”

I fell out of my chair and thought to myself, I will never have another perfect morning again.
