To Be Me

Miss Emma Blake

The drive took some time but they finally arrived at the school's gate late noon.

Emma stared widely at the entrance. This was it. The start of her new life.

The gate was huge and majestic with intricate patterns running through it. It's gold surface glistened in the sun bouncing back multiple rays of light.

As they drove further into the school, she noticed some of the buildings but couldn't determine what they were meant for. Of course they weren't your usual school buildings. No.

They were bigger, prettier and definitely better furnished than normal school buildings. A better fit for the selected few.

"The Elite."

She had read quite a bit about it- Especially the unspoken ranking system that heavily thrived.

Steping out of the car she took a long deep breath getting ready to embrace her new life. Bratty Billionaire Kids, Rankings and All.

Getting her luggage from the car and settling it down on the ground, she suddenly got ambushed by a bear hug from her dad as he whispered softly.

"I'll miss you my little angel."

"Daddd- We agreed you wouldn't do this."

"Sorry. My bad." He slowly let go sniffing.

"It's just so emotional you know." He turned taking a deep breath. "l'm letting my little girl go. Baby bird's finally leaving the nest."

"Oh my gosh you're so dramatic. I'm not getting married dad, just going to school so get going."

She gently placed her hands on his chest pushing him backwards.

"Go already."

The lady who had been standing afar off finally made her way towards the duo.

"Miss Emma Blake I presume." She said glancing at the clipboard in her hand.

"Yes ma'am."

"Good." She made a tick before proceeding.

"Welcome to The Elite." She turned to her father.

"I assure you Sir. Your daughter is in the safest hands possible. I'll make sure she is well rested and properly settles in."

She turned to Emma. "Follow me."

Taking hold of her luggage, her dad interrupted her.

"Just you know honey that if any guy tries to mess with you-" He flashed his biceps.

"He's going to get what he deserves."

"Bye dad." She laughed opening the car door for him. "I understand now go."

"My daughter's chasing me away, my heart, the pain- I never thought the day would ever come." He joked placing a hand on his chest dramatically which made her burst into laughter.

"You're so dramatic. Just like your wife."

He smiled softly coming closer and hugging her one last time. "You know I'm always on your side right?"

"I know."

"Good." He said sluggishly entering the car and driving away rather slowly. His eyes still on her as she enthusiastically waved him off.

Getting a firm grip of her things once more, she walked briskly to meet the lady who was waiting for her a little distance away.

"All due protocol and the transfer processess have been already handled by your parents so the only thing left is to get you all settled in. Your classes begin tomorrow."
