I woke up to a screeching sound which was really disturbing.
I reached for that damn alarm clock switched it off then hugged my pillow and snuggled back into my duvet.

procrastination you know

After five minutes my duvet flew off my bed and just then I knew it was mom, she is the only one who really woke me up so brutally.
"Mom only five more minutes please"I groaned while reaching out for my duvet.
"Elle, no procrastination we're already getting late. "she replied in a serious tone.

I got up and went to my bathroom to prepare and then decided on an indigo crop top and blue skinny jeans, some light makeup, then picked my bag that mum had prepared for me and my phone.

I stormed out of the room, down the stairs to the kitchen . I found mom dressed already or should I say ready to go.
She had prepared sandwiches and coffee which we had for breakfast then left the house .

This time I tried calling Belle and oh thank God she picked up.
" Good morning sleeping beauty."I greeted .
"What the hell are you doing up at this time?" She paused.
"6 in the morning, what the fuck?."she shouted this time .

"School, Am starting school today that's why I woke up early , and yeah mom preferred I came early because of the traffic and I also have no one else to take me to school if she leaves me at home , I already don't know this place, so."I explained.

"Ok , btw which school are you going to?"
"I don't know , am also just waiting to see where they are taking me"I replied
"Also how was the whatever you were going to tell your parents"I added curiously curiously.

"I'll call you later and tell you everything ,right now and really sleepy I'll call you later , bye and good luck for your first day at school without me ."

The last sentence really hurt me so much , I was going to attend school without Belle for the first time, I felt like my heart was getting torn into pieces but I had to keep strong.

So I jumped into the car , backseat obviously so that mum doesn't peep into my texts.

Mad woman by Taylor Swift was playing, oops!! looks like the music understood what was happening because first one was from Erica.

"Hello loser, how was the lecture from your mommy?"
I jeered that and didn't even respond , I just didn't have time to waste on her.

The next one was from Belle ."congs" I smiled at that though not knowing what it was for , if it was for me getting into a new school quickly or she convinced her parents to come and study with me.

I read some others from my friends that I left at school, asking how I was doing , which school I was going to, And all sorts of questions like that . I replied to some then kept the others for later . I ignored all the messages that involved a hot guy or party or anything like that.

I put my phone in my bag then decided to take in the early morning view while thinking about how my first day at school was going to be you know, the school bad boys , how am going to cope up , if i am going to make any new friends or am just going to be the social loser.
I shrugged off all those thoughts and just looked outside the window throughtlessly till-

"We're here darling"my mom said in a singing-ish tone pulling me out of my little reverie.
When I lifted my face to be faced with a huge building with a huge poster of "BIRMINGHAM HIGH".

And I was left in awe, students were filled in the parking lot , some chatting others walking into the building while others were just arriving but the number of students really scared like where was I really supposed to start from .
