Superman's Dead

Prologue/Chapter One

What advice could you give me?

I'm sixteen-year old Roxanne Monroe. I've had 8 first days of a new school since my first year of schooling. Kids either laughed at me or stayed away from me until I hit high school. See I have very long bright hair, it ends in the middle of my back and it's this odd red and brown color almost like a shiny auburn. I used to have big bright blue eyes but over sixteen years they've now glazed over and look cloudy.

Don't understand? Well let's just say the blind girl never made a lot of friends.

With my father in the military and my 'disability' playing as a major factor in my family's life, things have always been awkward. I still have both parents and I'm the middle child. I have an older sister, Rachel and two twin brothers who are younger than me, Daniel and Alexander. I was a baby when diagnosed; I was simply born with it.

Doctors found me amazing, whenever I was told this I would ask why and each time I was told that the doctors said whatever power that should've gone into my eyes was divided into all of my other senses.

So now I have to attend Robert E Lee High School in Mystic Falls, Virginia.

It's 7:00 AM and I am seriously considering hiding underneath my covers and praying to fall into some odd rabbit hole and live my life in Wonderland.

Did I mention that since I'm blind I don't have a chance to gaze at life so I like to live in what isn't and think it is. I hope that confused you and made you smile.

This is the tale of my dead superman.
