Beyond the setting sun

friendship

Sam's p.o.v

It was my third day in my new home and I had made one friend, rosa. in which i am unsure if I really even counted rosa as a friend at the time. Rosa seemed nice but I thought Annabelle (my older sister who had raised me) would take me to a shrink if I didn't come up with some friends soon . I HATED the shrink never met one i liked, never will. I was sitting in chemistry with rosa we were whispering as the teacher took role for the class he called my name "Samantha Clarkson" perfectly monotone. I replied dully "hear" then wispered to rosa " sadly" we giggled . He listed a few more names then called "Rosalie cortis" she cleared her throat "it's Cortez actually and I go by rosa." She was calm about the whole thing. she had a sweet patent voice , her short wavey hair fell over one eye and if you looked close enough at her you could tell she was Latino (she was relatively pale). She had a sad look in her dark eyes. She looked nothing like her dad he had red hair blue eyes was pail and had freckles all over his face. Next class was home room we talked about conferences. Mrs.Jones asked Rosa if her father would need a translator. Rosa just smiled pulled up a picture of her father and said "this is my dad" Mrs.jones staired at her boots for a second then said "anyone who needs to parents should do so now !" All to eager to change the subject from her Irish dad. I couldn't help but laugh "did you see her face!?! dude, she was like oh shit!" She smiled "i know! I really stumped her!" I sat wondering for a second "what does your mom look like?" I asked without thinking . She wordlessly pulled up a picture of a pretty Latino women"her name is Maria Cortez" i grinned "cool!" She got up and called her dad. I sat contemplating for a second then pulled out my cell phone and called Annabelle "hi Annie this is about conferences " she spoke for a second "ok Friday at 4:00 got it siss!" Then went to the teacher's desk to get a sheet "thank you" and I sat down at my seat.
