Episode 2
Gabby wakes up early and gets ready for school. She grabs some toast and quickly eats it
Tyler
*walks pasts her and yawns* What’s got you in such a hurry?
Gabby
*mouth full* Just want to get to school on time
Tyler
You’re always on time.
Gabby
*swallows* And I’m going to keep it that way.
Gabby rushes upstairs and brushes her teeth. When she walks out, she still has a few minutes to spare
Carlos
Where’s Mr Dinosaur? I need him.
Brianna
You don’t need Mr Dinosaur for kindergarten, Carlos.
Carlos
*sounding like he’s about to cry* I do!
Violet
You can bring toys to kindergarten.
Brianna
I know that. I’m not stupid.
Gabby
Here’s Mr Dinosaur, Carlos. *hands him Mr Dinosaur*
Gabby
Let’s try to not get into any fights this morning, ok? I’m sure mum would love a morning without any fights.
Brianna
*rolls eyes* Fine.
Zack
*skates past Carlos, nearly landing on him with his skateboard* Coming through!
Zack
*trips over a toy* Oof!
Gabby
*helps Zack up* Be careful. Didn’t mum tell you no skateboarding in the house?
Zack
She did. But that’s no fun.
Gabby
If you want to go on your skateboard so bad, go outside.
Zack
*grabs skateboard* Fine.
Gabby gets all her younger siblings breakfast. As she’s about to head out the door, she sees her mother.
She has red marks on her cheeks and bruises all over her face and arms.
Gabby
*concerned* Mum, are you ok?
Gabby’s mum
Oh, me? I’m fine, dear.
Gabby’s mum
*lies* Oh, nothing. Just-just tripped and fell.
Gabby
Well, I’m going to school now. I got all the younger ones breakfast. I hope that saves you the hassle of having to do too much.
Gabby’s mum
*hugs Gabby* Thank you so much, dear. I don’t know what I’d do without you. Your brother does nothing.
Gabby
*hugs back* That’s just Tyler.
Gabby
*walks out the door* Bye!
Gabby walks down the empty street as she heads to school. She loves leaving the house early to catch a glimpse of the sun as it rises.
She also loves the morning air and vibe that comes along with it. It makes her mind refreshed and relaxed for the day.
Danny
Oh, hey, it’s Little Miss Sunshine!
Gabby
*mutters under her breath, annoyed* Danny…
Danny
*walks beside her* What brings you out here so early?
Gabby
I was hoping to avoid seeing you. Why are you up so early?
Danny
Felt like it. And, just so you know, you love my company.
Gabby
*says sarcastically* Oh, absolutely. I just love your annoying presence accompanying me to school.
Danny
*sniffs the air* Ew, why did you fart?
Gabby
Excuse me? If anyone farted, it was not me!
Danny
Ah, ‘cause girls don’t fart?
Danny
*looks down at me* I have been meaning to ask you something, Gabby.
Gabby
Yeah? And what’s that?
Gabby
*thinks* He better not ask me out.
Gabby
*thinks* I like someone else.
Danny
Why are you so short?
Gabby
*eyes narrow and thinks* Oh, that’s it. Of course
Gabby
*says sarcastically* Maybe because I wanted to try and be a mouse.
Gabby
It’s totally not just genetics.
Danny
You sure do smell like a mouse.
Gabby
I smell that bad?! *sniffs herself*
Danny
You seriously take things too seriously. Why do you even want to- oh.
Danny
*voice sounds kind of sad and annoyed* You want to impress Lloyd, huh?
Gabby
*embarrassed* I-uh-no-I-uh-I do not!
Danny
It’s obvious that you like him, Sunshine. Everyone knows it.
Danny
Yeah. That’s why you’re so annoying. I don’t think he likes you.
Gabby
Why would you say that?!
Danny
Because. He doesn’t like annoying girls with annoying voices and an annoying attitude.
Danny
Hey, no one tells me to shut up.
Danny annoys Gabby for the rest of the walk to school. He is known as a bully in Kingsmill high.
When they get to school, Gabby immediately walks to her locker. Suddenly, her best friend, Zoe, appears at her locker*
Zoe
*happy* Gabby! I missed you!
Gabby
*smiles* I missed you, too. Even though it was only two days.
Zoe
Most boring two days of my life. All I did was-
Gabby doesn’t listen to Zoe as she sees her crush walk into school.
Lloyd Thompson. High school girl magnet. He is very popular and all the girls seem to like him. If he wanted to, he could date any girl he wanted to date in the whole school. In Gabby’s mind, he didn’t even know that she existed.
People had mixed opinions on him. Girls like Gabby absolutely loved him. They all dreamed of dating him. Girls like Zoe found him nice but didn’t have any love interest in him. Some boys were friendly with him or just found him a nice person. Boys like Danny seemed to absolutely hate his guts for no reason. No one wanted to ask Danny why he hated him as he was a bully.
There were two popular boys in school. The second was Danny. He was popular for a completely different reason.
Danny Rylan. High school bully. Apart from being incredibly handsome, he was a bully. This made girls go off him and not want to date him. Any girls that did date him broke up with him because they couldn’t handle him. It was either that or he clearly didn’t love them.
Danny didn’t really like any of the girls in their school. He only ever hooked up with them for fun. Otherwise, he never hung out with any girls. When he did, they all either feared him or obsessed over him. But, for some reason, he seems to always want to hang out with Gabby.
Anyway, back to the story.
Zoe
Gabby? Hello? Are you even listening to me?
Zoe
Distracted by Lloyd’s beauty? Yeah, I know.
Zoe
Let’s just ignore what I was saying about my weekend and just get you to class.
They both walk to class together
