It's a cold morning,feeling the breeze of the temperature on a school day.Three 14 year old middle schoolers started there monday at 7:41 am. The running and walking, agreeing would be fun to go back to the building of the school campus.We treated it as if it was an adventure living as if we were main characters. We carried out backpacks as well. 


 When we arrived Lemsy asked, “Is the tennis court” she said trying to catch her breath. I tucked my hands in my sweater  and continued walking. Saying “I think so, yeah let's check.” Esmi agreed with my words so we started running again towards the tennis court. I was surprised it was open by itself. We walked in, putting our backpack on the floor in a row.  Lemsy had the idea to jump from the net of the tennis court as she was preparing herself to start. “It was a reckless idea but seeing her about to do it motivated me to join with her. Esmi just watched at a distance cheering the two of us like it was a olympics. 


As soon as she jumped her leg got caught in the net and we kept laughing meanwhile Esmi was getting her shoe untangled from the net and I offered Lemsy my hand to get up from the floor. It was as if we had no worries in life and didnt need lisent to our parents say it was such a stupid idea to hear even if i  ever mention this moment to my perents. It was a refreshing feeling, once I reached my hand to my swithering pockets and grabbed my phone I checked the time just to see it was time to go. 


“It's already 8:00 am, and they opened the building.” showing the time from the screen of my phone to them. “Oh you're right!” We should get heading inside.” Lemsy said walking towards her backpack running and me and Esmi did the same. “I forgot that we were at school for a second of how much fun we had at such a little idea we had.” “right! It felt like freedom.” said Lemsy I nodded along as they were saying and added “hope we still have moments like this once we hit highschool next year.” Walking all the way back from the start of the school entrance of the school and running towards the stairs and into french class. 


Thinking about it now, it was crazy how much we had grown together since elementary and it was the first ever time to do something like this before. It really did feel like freedom. I guess this is a thought of a teenager and part of growing up shows. I don't think you, risk taking what 'ifs' questions to never take action for thoughts in your mind. It might be dangerous to have 0 clue what we're doing but in the end we can learn something from it and embrace mistakes. The more you rabel the more you learn in life then others words telling you how to live them.
