" Ok class I'm gonna be asking you what you want to be when you grow up and you're going to write it on a paper, come up if you want to share you don't have to" Mrs. Hernandez said she wrote the question on the board

I looked around to see everyone moving their pens and pencils moving already. My pen on the other hand was frozen. I didn't really know what I wanted to when I grew up. Ever since I was a kid I've never knew. One birthday party the birthday girl wished to be princess which was silly but still was something. Another birthday someone wished to become a pilot. When it came to my birthday I only wished for my mom to come back. She died when I was 4 but I still have some memories of her. My mom was a doctor and she told me she saved lives so I thought if she was about to die she could save her self but I was a kid and wrong. Being a doctor is probably a main idea but it wasn't my passion.

It finally came to my idea that I would never be able to decide what I would be when I grow up. I thought really hard about it but I couldn't decide. Eventually the teacher broke the silence saying " ok class does anyone want to share what they want to be ?" and only a few people raised my hand. She paused and looked around. " Ok how about Tay" she pointed to him. While he was talking I started thinking about what would happen if I didn't get a job. Would I be poor? Would I be homeless? Could I die from starvation? As the questions came flowing through my mind I started panicking.
" I want to be a engineer because-" I cut him off by asking the teacher " Can I go to the bathroom please?"

The teacher replied saying " Excuse me, it's not nice to interrupt someone while they're talking!" She said giving me a glare.

"I'm sorry but can I please go to the bathroom " I asked in a rush. " Yes you may go " she replied calmly. I lifted up from my seat and left the classroom quickly running to the bathroom. I placed both of my hands on the sink trying to catch my breath. I heard someone flush the toilet and come out the stall to wash their hands. They looked over at me and asked " are you ok?"

" I-I'm f-f-ine" I tried to speak but stuttered still panicking.

" Oh you're having a panic, ?! " she said worrily and walked closer to me and continued " It's ok, you'll be fine just think of a happy place or a happy person" she said I immediately thought of my mom closing my eyes.

"Thank you " i said finally catching my breath.

" no problem " she said and continued "my names Solana" sticking out her hand.

"Dior " I said with a smile and shaking her hand.

This is just a prolouge and it's in the past just to show how she and Solana met and how she became indecisive
