RHYTHM (EPISODE ONE)

She woke up to the sound of her alarm, she stared at the clock for a while, before slamming the button on it to turn it off right before it buzzed the second time, she didn't look very happy, she didn't wake up with a pretty face or a flowing hair like they protray in movies,her hair was a mess, it was like she had five bad hair days in a row, she wasn't exactly a morning person, she was barely even an anything person.

She got up reluctantly and reached for the shelf which was tall enough to make her stand on her toes to get a remote, she walked to her window, it had the most beautiful view, she pushed a button on the remote and music started blaring out of the speakers so strategically placed at the corners of her room, it was like someone used a remote on her cause, the person who was just looking like she woke up from her death is dancing like a crazy person.

She danced to the mirror holding the remote like a microphone singing to it like she was performing to an audience, she exchanged the remote for her toothbrush and continued to dance as she brushed her teeth, she then took her clothes off like strippers would, she danced into the bathroom and took a really long shower, mostly because she spent most of the time dancing and singing. It went on for about an hour till she got dressed and ready for work, the moment she stepped out of the house, she became the calm, shy, easy going girl people thought she was.

It was a busy Monday morning, different people rushing to different places, cars honking, kids running to catch a bus, she was lucky to get a taxi on time, she entered the taxi, and plugged her earphones in, "it stops strangers from talking to you", she thought, the car was really neat, too neat for a public car. It was all going fine, till she made eye contact with the driver through the mirror, she gave an awkward smile and looked away, "so where are you from", the driver asked turning back to look at her, she knew he was talking to her but she just wasn't the type to have conversations, she figured he'd realize she had earphones on and stop, he did not, he looked back again, this time gesturing to remove her earphones, she couldn't avoid him anymore, she removed her earphones, "so you like music uh, I like music too" he said, she stared at him for a while before saying "ooh, uh, that's nice...I like music too but you already said that, so..I don't know why I just said that", he laughed and said "well I like music too, if that makes you feel any better", she smiled...."I'll be stopping here" she said almost shouting, the car quickly came to a stop, she got down and quickly relocated her earphones in her ear.

As she took a step away from the car, she felt a huge mass slap the left part of her body, she got hit by a school bus and flew over 7ft landing on a concrete floor shattering some of her bones, she laid there with her earphones still in her ears almost submerged in a pool of her own blood, within seconds people were already gathered around her.
