FRIENDS TRIO

CHAPTER - 1

WHEN WE MEET...

1.ESTIE CLARK

I was sleeping dead, dreaming pleasantly in my owl world. I was dreaming that I was the most popular student in my college which was about to start in a week. I was the richest , most beautiful, most popular and everyone in the college was trying to talk to me. However, as usual it all was happening in my dreams.

I woke up that morning and came back to reality and saw that Toby (my dog) was lying beside me. He was trying to wake me up . Though I didn't want to, I didn't want to go downstairs and face my parents' tense faces. Although I knew that their faces were tense because of me.

Yesterday night we had a discussion about my college admission.

I applied in three schools of three different types of fee ranges ( you know middle class family children). One of them was the most expensive one in which I wanted to go as I wanted to experience some luxury and premium teenage friendships and love (of course).

Although I didn't got approved there so it all my imaginations went in vain.

I was kinda relieved that I got rejected as I didn't had to tell my parents about its fees. My parents come from a middle class family , my mother is a teacher in a kindergarten and dad works in a bank at low post.

Our family's financial income has increased since my sister, Bella, got a job at some sort of office. She has always been a helpful kind of sister. She provided me all the resources and adherence that was possible from her side.

Even she was the one who advised me to apply in more than one college.

I have decided to go in Mind Foundation Education college which is not as expensive as the one before but still expensive. When I told my parents about my acceptance letter from Mind Foundation , My parents were like, "Ah!"

Me," Yeah I got accepted. "

Mom," Congrats dear , its such a good news. No one in our family has ever gone to a college like that."

Dad said a little worriedly," Did you got any scholarship or something...?"

Me,"I did got some of my fee reduced as I know its hard for you guys to afford that but I really want to go there."

Mom," Oh, Estie"

Dad,"Well, if you have already made up your mind then you should surely go."

That's what my dad is like sometimes he's one of those cool dads who tell their kid to buy anything at the supermarket and sometimes he worries about things like college fee.

Me, "Thanks, dad."

Mom, "From when your college will start?"

Dad," These collages usually start from next month ."

Me," Yeah, there is one week left , then I will be gone from here."

Mom," Est , You need to cheer up a little . Tonight is a celebration night."

At that we ate a special dinner with all my favorite dishes in it .

That's how I convinced my parents . Bella also supported me in this parental 'prep' talk.

I woke next morning and got dressed as I have to go to my college to do some leftover formalities for the admission. I was meeting my two best friends Martha and Lee to go together as we all got approved in the same college.

Coincidentally all three of us have been friends since our kindergarten.

Though Lee has become a little distant from us. She got her hair cut so short (I loved her long hairs) that I thought she had gotten bald and she colored those hairs in a very neon blue color. She visited her grandparents house during holidays and has been weird since she has returned. She didn't even texted or tried to contact me , I don't know what's wrong with her.

I saw Martha standing at the entrance of Mind Foundation alone and staring at nothing .

Me, "Hi Martha "

Martha , " Hey"

Me, "How have you been?"

She, "Fine, what about you?"

Me, "Oh, You know always struggling."

We both chuckled. Then I saw her , Lee was coming toward us. She was literally covered in black inked tattoos. Martha and I both gasped, Lee, "Hey guys"

Martha," Umm,...h...hey"

I quickly recovered myself from this sudden shock so that I won't look like a fool in front of Lee.

Me, "Hey Lee, What's going on?"

Lee, "Nothing interesting."

I thought how could her life not be interesting after such a huge makeover.
