Chapter 2 (Mr. Roy G. Biv)A Chapter by Writing RabbitThis is chapter two to Mr. Roy G. Biv, written by me, Writing Rabbit. English is boring. So boring that I cannot stand to keep my eyes open longer than five minutes. I don’t know if the class is more boring than normal due to the fact that I am anxious to leave school and go to Caleb’s or if it is because The Pearl by John Steinbeck is just unbearable. Going to Caleb’s means that I can spend time with him and get away from my house. Anyway, I don’t even understand why we have to read this story. Who cares about some pearl that is better than all the others? What am I supposed to learn from this short story? By the way, this story is not short. It is such a long story! To make sure we know who wrote what, we had to write our names before we wrote something. It got a bit annoying after a while when we would think someone’s writing was someone elses. Alice: What are you guys doing after school? Although Alice never admitted it, she had a huge crush on Caleb. Her other friends, Caleb, and me have asked her multiple times to fess up for her feelings but she kept on telling us we were stupid and went on her way. That means she obviously likes Caleb. Especially if she keeps on asking him out on a date. Caleb: I’m sorry but I can’t. I have a surprise for someone. Saturday is December 4th afterall. Caleb cocked his head at me and I shook mine. A fake smile told him that something was up and he lightly kicked my shin. I always wondered about him when it came to relationships. Caleb was protective when it came to his emotions but it was still strange. He was extremely attractive, every girl thought so, and he never dated anyone. I don’t even know if Caleb has kissed anyone. I kind of wonder if he has a crush on someone or doesn’t even care about dating. - By the time school was over (2:45), I could hardly keep my eyes open. In every single class of mine, we either did so much work or we did nothing. There was no happy medium. I’m stuck here for even longer though. Caleb has decided to do swim and dive so I have to wait for him to be done. I can’t watch practice because I’m not in that sport, the library is closed so there goes that option, and bowling never started because hardly anyone wanted to play. Such a fun year… I have to sit in an empty cafeteria with The Pearl as my only friend. No one I know is here because they are either in basketball or they left ages ago. So, I started reading. The Pearl actually isn’t that bad of a book. It’s not the most fascinating thing to read but it was something. Kino, the main character, just started to leave his village with his wife, son, and the “pearl of the world”. I wish that Caleb could get done so we can go on our own journey to his house. Or on any journey. It doesn’t really matter. Nothing else is really happening in the story though. Well, I bet more is happening but my mind isn’t really processing it. I still read on. - Caleb’s house was the same. I helped him with work he could do well on his own. His little sister, Nia, asked me about the recent books I’ve read and the anime shows I’ve watched. I bugged Caleb about my birthday present happening on Saturday but he wouldn’t budge. It has been annoying me ever since he mentioned it in English. I’m so good at pep talk. Here I go. © 2014 Writing RabbitAuthor's Note
