the beginning
Stephen Wright's POV:
That's when I heard it. The sound of the alarm clock going off "Ring Ring Ring!". It was like any other day but today was different, today was the first day back to school. Summer vacation passed by so quickly I hardly had time to notice it.
"STEPHEN GET OUT OF BED!" said my mother. I could hear her voice all the way from downstairs. My mother Christina Wright has a lot on her plate, I can only Imagine what she has to go through for being a single mother. Growing up I never had a chance to even meet my father, No matter how much I ask my mother about him, she'd always say "maybe next time".
The moment I set my foot on the ground is the moment I wanted to go straight back to bed. I headed to the bathroom to brush my teeth and wash up. I can hear the commotion from downstairs, clearly everyone was awake and in big spirits. I was a bit nervous after all, I mean it was the first day back to school. I was only thinking of my new classmates I had to get use to. I'm sure that some of my old classmates might be in some of my classes. I finished putting on my clothing and proceeded to go downstairs.
"Good morning sweetheart, please finish breakfast so you can head to school." said my mother. "good morning, thank you I will." I replied. My siblings Adria and Michael seemed to be enjoying themselves, so I waved and told them "good morning". After breakfast I headed out the doors. It was a very cold morning, the sun was barely shining. I usually take the bus to school since my mom has work in the morning, and even though its nice to have her drive us to school I didn't have much of an option.
There I was, already at the stop sign waiting for the bus. I can see a couple kids around my age approaching the stop sign as well. "Oh my goodness, no way!" It was one my best friends Jason Tyler. The last Time I got to see him was in 10th grade. "Oh It's so nice to see you man!" Jason commented. "You wouldn't believe how much I missed you" I replied. We gave each other a handshake. Before we could continue on talking we could already see the lights of the school bus heading our way. The bus stopped and everyone proceeded to hop in the bus. Of course! it was our old bus driver Mr. Jinkins. He'd always make jokes in the bus and let us have loads of fun in there. I greeted him and got on the bus.
