I was shocked they were there. She gave me the most evil look and walked away. Tears came to my eyes but I ignored it and carried on laughing along with my family.

It was 5pm and I asked mum if we could go now.

"Why dear? You love shopping." She said, suspiciously, "Your not ill? Thats the only time you don't like shopping."

"No mum, I thought maybe we should get going as dad needs to go work." I answered.

"Oh yeah! Of course, he will be going at 6, we better go. Thanks Inaayah!"

I smiled. I wanted to meet them again, they said come at 6 to the same place. Ihsaan and Inayah, my two new mates. I didn't tell mum this as she wouldn't let me, not after last time- the problem with Rose...

A little while later, we were home. Dad went work and my sisters were getting ready for the interview tomorrow. My brothers were playing. I went in the kitchen and asked mum, she answered,

"Ok, what is this whole new thing going to the sea? Mind you, you love it. You always wished you could live near one. Go ahead, make the most of it..." What did she mean by 'make the most of it'? I asked her,

"Mum, are we moving?'

"Yes dear, not far from here. Just a road away. You will still be able to see the sea and will still be able to go to the same college but just a new house. By the way, the name ofyour college is St. George college."

"Meaning a white college, great (!)" I answered sarcastically and I walked out.

I sat there, looking at the waves and watching the sun set- most beautiful scene ever. Someone tapped me and I turned around.

"Hi Ihsaan."

"Hello, Inayah felt sick and she is really sorry that she couldn't come but she told me to come so you don't get upset."

"Ha-ha! No worries, come sit down. Look at the sun set."

For a few minutes we sat together, looking. Until I heard my mother call me,

"INAAYAH, COME HERE NOW!" She yelled.

"I have to go, bye!" I called out and I ran.

A while later, I entered and my mum looked very cross. "Mum?"

"Inaayah, go to your room and go to sleep," she said and I silently went up. Why was she so cross? After a while, sister Ikra came and said,

"Inaayah, I cannot believe it. Out of all people, you?"

"Me what?" I asked.

"Why were you sitting near the sea, with a..."

I gasped!

"It's a misunderstanding! Wait..."

It was too late, I broke everyone's trust...
