The Mysterious Girl for Doc by Orianna Williams




Faloria. She was the girl you glanced at and took a second look. The day I viewed her I was in amazement. She dressed in a small cut vest, just high off her belly button and she wore black skinny jeans that stopped right above her smooth ankles. From her high pumped shoes and her pale yellow skin I knew something was different about her. “The face she has describes nothing she’s into,” said Doc, thinking to him self. Doc continued, “You would think she’s a weird gothic person, or something of the sort.”

Faloria came from a whole different perspective that I bet I wouldn’t understand. Every period throughout the day she would always change into different hairstyles; a ponytail first period, the next hour it would hang on the left side on her head, and by the fifth period it was on the right, and finally, by the end of the day it had two fish tail braids that fell neatly against her back. No matter what period of the day all of her hairstyles were amazing.

The restroom was like her secret fortress, a place where she could change her hair, her clothes, and even her identity. As I walked pass slowly I glanced towards my left but my eyes were too blurry to see what Faloria could possibly be doing. I wore glasses from time to time by the way because it seemed that I needed them now. The things that occurred in there—the glamorous socializing by the lionized girls—are not allowed for people like me. But that would not stop me from daydreaming about the talk that traveled among the girls in the schools restroom. One time I over herd Lexi gossiping with Raine about Faloria, it seemed to me that they were just jealous. I wouldn’t believe anything that the girls would say about her because they’re stupid and naive.

Doc is 5’9, with pearly white teeth, grey eyes, and a swag that can be priceless towards the ladies. They called him Doc for short and he is cherished throughout high school. His life had just entered this feeling that was hard to describe. Like all teenagers you couldn’t discuss it with your parents, sibling’s, or even friends at school. This change was to remain to him. It was an experience that only he could have visualized. Every time he wandered the halls he would pass Faloria and his legs would cramp up, my cheeks would turn red, and I would stand as if I had to take a crap. This nervousness was something that I witnessed Doc experiencing; it was as if he was up on a roller coaster from outer space.

Often times when Doc walked into class I would witness him covering his cheeks while in his seat and take a peep around to see if anyone was watching him. But as Faloria walks pass him he would glance at her firm butt, which made him feel quivery and sadly guilty because she wasn’t like any other girl to him. She was about her and only her and she seemed to be here for a reason, but I couldn’t pin point what it was. No one ever dared to talk to Faloria. And during 4 th period Doc began to see things differently now. He cherished the symmetry of the walls and the glow of the lights that lingered in the halls. Maybe it was because…. sigh I doubt know.

“Man, you in love!” says Oshay.

As I viewed Doc and Oshay walk slowly towards the double doors of the hall.

The expression on his face every time he glanced at Faloria gave Oshay the impression that he was in love.

Oshay knew what love was. He was going out with the captain of the cheer squad. Yunny and her teammates would go to numerous competitions and perform for the high school basketball games. But anyway her name is Yunny I think. Everyday was like the first day Oshay and Yunny had begun going out. They acted like they were in heaven, reaching for the clouds and laughing at things that weren’t even funny. That’s why Doc questions himself and wanted to know what this “love” thing was all about and he knew that he wanted to share it Faloria.

“yo stop daydreaming again Doc” said Oshay.

Doc says continuously; I’m not, I’m not, give me a minute. He saw something that was very unusual to his human eye and Doc grew strange enough to see what the heck it was. He believes he saw purple smoke that surrounded something or someone. As he Started To walk toward the love trap bam! he grew lazy and weak. My eyes began to gaze and I tried to wiggle my head back and forth a couple times but it was useless. And before I knew it. Boom! He was knocked by her love spell.

Oh my gosh! Said Faloria as she presses a button that triggered the ship in somewhere land. Sluck tu nee la day té. Faloria you will need to return as soon as possible or you will be doomed! Said Toni, the father of Mother Lord Ship. Faloria’s purple essence was only hindered by her true lovers. She didn’t notice her powers as she continued to grow mentally every day. I view Faloria struggling and Unable to carry Doc to the outside of the cafeterias double doors where everyone was entering to go to lunch. Doc wakes up in shock and realizes that he’s by the cafeteria and wonders how he got there. He walks into the lunchroom and looks around in slow motion from left to right for people that he was familiar with.

He then looks for his best friend and whispers to Oshay about what happened to him just a couple of seconds ago.

Oshay stated at lunch that he was crazy and that he needed to wake up and realize that he's not in some other fantasy world.

“Faloria is just like any other girl and you daydream about this girl noticing you that’s all” says Oshay.

Oshay begins to laugh out loud “hahahaha”.

“ You know that she doesn’t pay attention to anyone around here. I can’t believe you. I think you need to stop playing video games my dude.” Oshay says as he shakes his head in disbelief.

"But no! I’m serious why you won’t believe me? So much as a friend" says Doc under his breath. As he puts his head down on the lunchroom table he looked to his left and he steadied his eyes on Faloria as she walked to her table. Oshay turns to grab him aggressively.

“yo dude.” Oshay yells to Doc. Oshay then sees the purple essence that follows Faloria as she walks. And his light brown eyes followed with a black pupil opened wide as he passed out right there on the lunchroom table. Is this a dream? Said Doc, he wondered in suspicion, or was Faloria giving me a hint to approach her through her love spell?

The next morning while at Doc’s house.

Yo, yo, Oshay wake up your going to be late for school. Its 7:00am. Lets go! Says Doc. Oshay then wakes up as if he wakes up from a bad dream. Doc leaves his room and shakes his head at Oshay as he starts to tell him about the insane dream he had.

“Everything seemed so real. I can’t wait to tell Yunny about this dream say Oshay.”

“What are you talking about? You play too many video games dude.” Said Doc as he shifts his hair to one side of his face.

As I sit in my room I continued to hear Oshay stumble over Doc's action figures and Doc yelling my name to come down stairs for mama's breakfast. Ali you have ten minutes before the bus comes Doc says as he scuffs down his morning breakfast and cold orange juice. I’m coming I say. As I leave my room Oshay leaves my brothers room door and runs down the stairs. Ring, ring, ring Oshay's phone rings and I hear Yunny's voice once again. Doc looks at Oshay in shame and hears Yunny talking about the prom arrangements. I say to my brother you're one lonely kid but in my head I wish he was to find Faloria the girl in my dreams.
