What Happened to Me?

The blazing sun shined its brilliant and annoying light at me. I twisted and turned in my covers, but the light was not going away. I sat straight up on my bed and stretched out my arms and took a good look at my room. It looked just the same as it did yesterday neat and clean.

I dragged myself to the bathroom to brush my teeth when I looked in the mirror my reflection was not there, hold on, this can’t be right maybe I’m just dreaming and this is a nightmare, or is my sleepy mind playing tricks on me? I was going to rub my eyes, but my hands looked as if they were gone. I knew they were there I could feel them of course, they were my hands. I knew something was fishy but what?

“I think I had enough of this,” I told myself and went down to eat breakfast but when I got down everybody acted as if I wasn’t there.

I walked around and tried tickling my sister, of course, she laughed but she didn’t tell me to stop. I took a minute to think when a strange thought popped into my head. I tried to push it away

“No, it can’t be, “ I told myself.

Am I……invisible?

I looked around the room and it sure looked like it and that would explain why I couldn’t see my reflection in the mirror and think of all the things I could do so my mind started trailing off imagining all the great things I could be doing right now instead of worrying. I had so many ideas that, took out my journal and wrote a few of them down. Here is what I have ….

  1. Annoy my sister with no one watching
  2. Eating all the sweets I want
  3. Missing school
  4. Stealing my dad’s credit card and getting all the stuff I want
  5. Everything…

Well, I guess some of them are a little evil but who does not want to be invisible….

That day I did everything on my list but whatever I did I felt lonely and bored. That night when  I went to bed I looked out my bedroom window, there I saw the first star of the night and made my wish, the next day morning I woke up with a huge yawn when I went to the bathroom I could see my reflection! I rushed downstairs and everyone came and hugged me, they kept asking me where have I been? and why have I been gone so long. I wanted to answer them but that was my own little secret. The big thing is I was back to my original self and I got the answer to my question, who does not want to be invisible? Me!
