A new leaf

3. Mentally preparing

"ZOE GET UP NOW OR WE ARE GOING TO BE LATE !" my mum practically screamed at me down the corridor. I had completely forgotten that today was the day when I met Paul and his daughters: Camilla, Safanit and Chiara, to be honest I don't really want any more siblings. I say that but I'm an only child so technically speaking I don't want sisters at all.

From what I've heard sisters are complete bitches. They steal you make-up, your clothes, your privacy and for all I know they could be stealing my mum....

"Zoe it's not even funny!"

Oh my gosh it had slipped my mind completely. I have only just woken up rubbing the crust out of my eyes, so I guess that I should get ready now. I must admit that I look like utter crap this morning. Great way to make a first impression.

"I'm up mum just getting dressed and....." I probably shouldn't tell my mum that I'm wearing make-up. Even though I'm 15, she still treats me like I'm a 5 year old.

I head to the bathroom to do my hair and put my make-up on. I apply my foundation,mascara and a light shimmery eyeshadow that blends in with my plae life less skin so that mum doesn't realise that I'm wearing make-up. Then I plait my long brown hair into a fishtail braid that come over my shoulder.

Once I'm finished in my bathroom I get dressed into my crop top from topshop and my high wasted shorts from h&m. I also put on my beige sandals from Primark and my handbag(also from topshop). I have to bring my essentials to Paul's just in case I pack: my phone, my make-up bag, hair brush, chewing gum(don't want to have bad breath)and my purse. Before going down the corridor to the kitchen(because I'm famished) I stop to look at myself in the mirror, I don't look to bad this morning.

One thing I didn't tell you earlier was that I live in London you may think that it' great here. Well the truth is: it always rains here and the weather is so unpredictable, the streets are always dirty and I live in a flat in acton the most run down part of the city. Because the weather is so unpredictable I stuff my jackwills jumper into my bag.

"I heard that Paul and his girls live beside the seaside so you might want to bring your bikini" Mum said as she dived into her scrambled eggs and bacon. I don't really eat that much since I was bullied in primary for being over weight.

" I will pack it in a minute mum can't I just have my breakfast first" I began to say

"Oh my look at the time, honey grab your stuff we'r gonna be late hurry!"

I dashed to my room looking for my swim suit or bikini then I realised that I had lent it to my best friend Aoife so that she could wear it to some party. Oh well Camilla's ruffly the same age as me I'll borrow something of her's. Since she will be doing that when we move in...if we move in,

Please point out any mistakes and I'll fix them later. Hope you are enjoying it. next update later this evening if I can
