My Best Friend Changed My Life

The move in

16th June 2014.
-The day I moved in
-The first day my life would be different
-The first day in my new home

When I first moved in, my parents were arguing non stop. When it was time to leave my old house with my suitcases I could see my brother was getting very emotional.

Unlike my dad. He was just shouting at everyone for no reason.

Dickhead.

I remember opening the front door and down came Chloe. I first met Chloe when I came for my induction, a week after my interview. On that day, Chloe and I both got on the same bus, the W9. It wasn't long before Chloe and I were chatting away.

The first thing she asked me when I came through the door was if I needed any help. I said yes and Chloe was teaching me how to unlock and lock the door.

I swear to God that lock is so annoying!

My parents also came in and helped me bring the rest of my stuff into my room before we said our goodbyes. I could see the pain in my mum's eyes, but deep down she knew it was the best decision for me.

After Chloe helped me finish my room, we went downstairs to watch a horror movie. It wasn't long before Erin came in with her friend Paige. Chloe had already told me things about Erin, some bad and some more bad, but I wanted to see if she was like that towards me.

Next thing you know Chloe and Erin were fighting over the washing machine.

I was just sittting on the sofa like what the fuck is happening.

I thought they were gonna say sorry and make up. But hell no I was very wrong. Erin started threatening to beat up Chloe, then Paige started joining in.

This is what I don't understand, if your a sideman, remain a sideman, you got that position for a reason bruh!

Grace then came in saying "girls, girls what is happening". In her Nigerian accent.

Ahh guys, Grace is the best staff member you will ever meet. She is literally a mum to us girls, always caring for us, cooking for us and treating us like were her children.

The fight stopped and Erin and Paige went upstairs. Me and Chloe were left laughing about it in the living room with Grace.

That was my first memory from Roedean House.
