*beep beep* I awoke to the sound of my alarm clock. I swiftly turn it off and try to get another few minutes of sleep. But as my luck has it my dad came in and disturbed my rest.
"Layla hurry up and take a shower it's your first day, now get up." he said
"Okay just let me wake up first." I sighed
I looked at the time it was five o'clock. I got up and trudged to the bathroom. Truth be told I was really nervous about today. I mean of course I've been to school before, but this is different. This is high school. I'm going to be a freshman at a new school where I don't know anyone. Even though I'm going a few days late I still feel like I haven't had any time to prepare myself for what's about to come. I just feel like I've been put on the spot even though I really haven't been. But I know the reason I'm so anxious is only because I'm flooding my mind with bad thoughts. I'm gonna be the new girl and I'm gonna have to do introductions to the students and the teachers. People might make fun of me because I haven't learned the ropes already? What no one lets me sit at their table for lunch? What if people make fun of my clothes? What if nobody likes me? What if-
*bang bang* "Layla!"
I was pulled out of my thoughts as I was startled by a pounding on the door.
"Hurry up and finish your shower I have to shower for work!"
It was my sister Maya I don't know why she said I was taking a long time it's only been a few minutes. I stopped and listened to my music telepatía was playing. 'But that's so far down on my playlist I usually finish my shower before I can finish' I got out and looked at the time. It was already 5:45.
I must've been to caught up overthinking that I lost track of time. I quickly put on my clothes instantly feeling self conscious about my outfit.
"Hurry up and get to the bus stop Lay you're already a few minutes late anyways." My mom said
Well no time to change now. I quickly grabbed my backpack and the rest of my things. Well if I had any school supplies anyway. But besides the point I got my things and left my room
"See you later sweetie" My grandma said
"Leave me alone grandma." I shouted
I went to see if my brother was awake before I left. There he laid still sleeping there on the floor as my parents hadn't woken him up yet. Honestly I didn't care, if he wanted to be late then so be it. I said my goodbyes and left through the door. I went to the bus stop and waited for my ride to arrive. I sighed as I saw the bright yellow vehicle come into my field of vision. I cringed at the loud and annoying creak from the bus doors. The ride to the school was long. Very long. Well at least it seemed like it. It was actually only a few minutes. But my anxiety about the day ahead of me made the time stretch even slower and my heart beat even faster. Suddenly the bus came to a halt. I stood from my seat and walked down the bus aisle. As I went to exit the bus my nervousness grew. I was so anxious for no reason. I felt almost as if I were about to faint with each step I took. There I stood in front of the schools double doors that looked gigantic from my point of view. I drew in a deep breath.
" Well, here goes nothing." I quietly said to myself as I pulled on the handle and walked my way into my impending doom. Dreading each step of the way.
