More Exposure Coming Through (Transcript)

It is already afternoon Zoe and Josh are back in school in the hallways after finishing putting up the newspapers. They started talking about Kayla on the way to class.
Zoe: Josh, I'm glad that you've reached 1k followers on Instagram.
Josh: Thanks.
Zoe: Don't sweat it, mate.
Josh: Also, Kayla hasn't seen it yet.
Zoe: If she sees it, we're doomed.
Josh: I think she's over.
Zoe: I couldn't find her account so you're right.
Josh: Really?
Zoe: Yeah, it just vanished.
Josh: Maybe she blocked you.
Zoe: How can I tell if she blocked me?
Josh: You won't be able to find her account.
Zoe took out her phone and finally found Kayla's account. She just typed in the wrong username. That's when she found a repost of a member of the boy band, Why Don't We, Jack.
Zoe: Crap, I saw a repost of Jack and she said he helped her cope with her ‘anxiety’ and ‘panic attacks’ when she actually faked them. And she didn’t block me, I just realised that I just typed the wrong username.
Kayla: There you are, I've been looking for you.
Zoe: Uh oh.
Kayla: Hey Josh, wanna date? I know it's a strange question to ask. Okay, never mind, it was a stupid question anyways.
Zoe: Well that's weird.
Josh: Wait, she's looking at my post.
Kayla: Josh, how dare you expose me! 
Josh: Well, you said that I made you pregnant and even faked a heart attack. That's so uncool.
Kayla: Yeah, I did love you. But now I hate you.
Josh: Sorry not sorry. I didn't want to expose you, but you played with too many people in this school.
Kayla: How dare you Josh?! What the heck! I'm so sad I wanna cry. How can you do this to me? I thought you were my friend.
Zoe: I thought you were my friend too but you betrayed my trust.
Josh: What my sister said.
Kayla: She doesn't look like your sister, she looks like a little girl you picked out from the trash in Asia. She's such a chink.
Zoe: Hey! I am not a chink. I'm clearly not a chink. Also, did you really overdose?
Josh: Yeah, you were fine last week and you went to school like everyone else.
Kayla: Well, I actually did overdose, that's definitely true.
Josh: Can't you just quit the act already?
Kayla: I actually did overdose on some pills and threw up afterwards.
Josh: But I actually got an accidental overdose and Zoe believed me.
Zoe: Yeah, my brother always tells the truth. Not like you.
Kayla: How dare you, Josh. I'm so sad I'm gonna kill myself.
Josh: You legit planned this.
Kayla: Josh, I actually did overdose a few days ago. No lie. I vomited afterwards too.
With all of the screams and shouts from 2 16-year-olds with a young 14-year-old intervening the fight joining her brother's side, she is starting to have enough. She couldn't take it anymore.
Song: Quiet from Matilda the Musical
Zoe: #Have you ever wondered #Well I have #About how when I say, say, red #For example there's no way of knowing if red #Means the same thing in your head #As red means in my head when someone says red #And how if we are traveling at #Almost the speed of light #And we're holding a light #That light would still travel away from us #At the full speed of light #Which seems right in a way #What I'm trying to say #I'm not sure #But I wonder if inside my head #I'm not just a bit different from some of my friends #These answers that come into my mind unbidden #These stories delivered to me fully written #And when everyone shouts they seem to like shouting #The noise in my head is incredibly loud #And I just wish they'd stop #My dad and my mum #And the telly and stories would stop for just once #And I'm sorry #I'm not quite explaining it right #But this noise becomes anger and the anger is light #And the burning inside me would usually fade #But it isn't today! #And the heat and the shouting #And my heart is pounding #And my eyes are burning #And suddenly everything, everything is... #Quiet #Like silence, but not really silent #Just that still sort of quiet #Like the sound of a page being turned in a book #Or a pause in a walk in the woods #Quiet #Like silence, but not really silent #Just that nice kind of quiet #Like the sound when you lie upside down in your bed #Just the sound of your heart in your head #And though the people around me #Their mouths are still moving #The words they are forming #Cannot reach me anymore! #And it is quiet #And I am warm #Like I've sailed #Into the eye of the storm#
The burning sensation behind Zoe's eyes caused one of the hallway lights to explode. She felt like this is the beginning of her getting powers. Not just any powers, the special power of telekinesis. Zoe was confused of the burning sensation behind her eyes and the special power she has.
Zoe: What? What happened? I dunno what happened.
Josh: What happened, Zoe? 
Zoe: I have no idea, the lamp just exploded.
Josh: (sighs)
That's when Zoe started crying, letting all the shame and guilt get out of her system. Instead of Josh backing away, he hugged his little sister tightly and Zoe hugged back.
Josh: It's okay, Zoe.
Kayla: Wow Josh, didn't know your baby sister is a cry baby.
Josh: Shut up and leave! You don't know what she's going through! 
Josh let go of Zoe who is kneeling and is a crying mess. The 16-year-old boy stood up and angrily yelled at Kayla.
Josh: She's adopted because her real parents ditched her and me and my family have no choice but to adopt her! Bring her back to Australia with us all the way from the Philippines!
Kayla: She's probably from a poor family who put her in a rubbish bin just hoping that she could find someone to adopt her and give her a normal life.
Josh: No! You got it all wrong! Her real family ditched her because her indigenous biological mother couldn't take care of her on her own while her biological father flies back to America.
Kayla: Then he should've took her to America instead of having you adopting her. And you would've been the only child when your sister, Addison, moved to Sydney.
Josh: So what?! Adopting Zoe helped me cope with a lot of stress! You don't know our family life! Just leave us alone!
Kayla: Fine!
Kayla stomped away leaving Josh and Zoe alone. The girl stood up and Josh made a really tough decision to skip a few more classes and their extra-curricular.
Josh: I think we should go home early today.
Zoe: Why?
Josh: I don't want you to get too stressed out from what happened. Okay?
Zoe: Okay.
Josh: Good, I'll go grab our going home early slips and let's walk home. I'll tell them that you're sick and you have to head home early.
Josh and Zoe got their slips and walked home. But there are questions roaming around Zoe's head so she decided to ask these questions to her brother.
Zoe: Josh, are you mad at me?
Josh: For what?
Zoe: For destroying one of the lights.
Josh: Zoe, it's not your fault. Your powers just can't help it. Your powers are actually extraordinary.
Zoe: Powers? I didn't know I'll have powers.
Josh: Don't worry about it.
Zoe: Then how did that light explode?
Josh: Because all your brain cells came together and formed a burning sensation behind your eyes. Then, with all the power that you have, the light exploded. You have the power of telekinesis. 
Zoe: Woah.
The siblings arrived home and surprisingly, their mum isn't home from work yet. They both got changed from their school uniforms and met up in their room.
Zoe: You got her pissed off.
Josh: She planned this for sure. She probably saw my posts, asked me out and did this.
Zoe: She didn’t get herself OD, she faked it.
Josh: I know right, there's no way she did it.
Zoe: If she says she wants to kill herself, she’ll fake her death over again. It’s only a possibility.
Josh: Yeah, she'll even lie to me then.
Zoe: About my powers, I need to try to get used to them.
Josh: I have an idea. Why don't you lift up your giraffe, Daniel.
Zoe closed her eyes as the burning sensation behind her eyes comes back. Then, she managed to lift up her stuffed giraffe.
Zoe: (gasps) It's working. I can lift Daniel.
Josh: Now try to lift Zach.
With the help of her powers, Zoe put down her stuffed giraffe and lifted up her stuffed panda. Then, she lifted up her laptop, Josh's computer and a lot of things. She is getting used to her powers.
Zoe: I did it, I can lift everyday objects.
Josh: Woah. Okay, you can put everything down now.
Zoe used her powers and put down everything.
Josh: I'm impressed with your powers.
Zoe: Thanks. It wasn't so hard, but getting used to it really is.
Josh: Yeah.
Zoe: Tomorrow we still have class.
Josh: I know, let's get ready for bed and tomorrow you have to tell me what's happening with Kayla.
Zoe: Right.
