If I say am not timid then it's a lie. Right now am standing outside Liana High, my new school..I mean where I'll have high school studies from but my stomach is aching because of the nervousness in me.

"Okay...I'll manage this" I sigh after a moment of looking at the environment around. Am only relieved cause I know this will probably be a new beginning for me. No Sheldon, no Cherry and her ugly annoying friends...okay they ain't that bad in terms of physical appearance but they are piss offs. Atleast Ave is also not here...I allowed in all the pain of her dating Sheldon. I thought it would be easy but I was wrong... But atleast am now far from the two...hoping to have a fantastic new beginning but*sigh*

  I enter the school and go to the principal's office to pick my year timetable and finish up some other few requirements needed. Well, for today we are free...just to first study the environment. Lessons will begin in the next two days.  Like any other  outgoing teenager, I also wanted to make new friends but am really bad at socializing. It's not like am an introvert, nope. And that doesn't mean that I am an extrovert. Well...how do they call it...,an ambivert. Anyway, I was finally able to make some new friends. And they too seem to be introverts...ughhhh.

Lessons began on Tuesday and for the week, I was with my new friends, Ethel Williams and Shiloh Wayne and surprisingly we we're in the same classes.

"Guys are you going for our welcome party tomorrow." Shiloh asked as after classes. It's the most fun weekday, Friday...not weekday not weekend. Fun cause no more school for the next two days. How fun that is!

"Obviously." Ethel answers.

"And you Blossom."

"Definitely I'll have to go."

Of course I have too. I need to try making more friends and get used to the new people. I need to make a fresh new beginning not like the ending in my Junior High School.

"Okay. We'll see ourselves there. Nice evening Blossom." Shiloh said and they bid me farewell.
So I had to walk the remaining distance home alone. They take a different direction and I also take a different one.

                     *Party day*
After a whole full hour or more of searching through my wardrobe, I finally settle to a tight white dress with red flowers. Decency matters... a little bit... I guess  so I made sure I choose a dress just right above my knees and pair it with white Nike sneakers. After getting ready, I picked my purse 'it's all I need. Just my phone and some cash for emergency as mum always says it' and matched out. We were given the address for the party. It was going to held at Freddie's house, the President of Students' council.

I reach the place and wow. It's mesmerizing. Almost a mansion. By 9pm, I have to be home. I tell myself as I join the party...a bit late cause it actually started an hour ago, at 7pm. Meaning am here for just an hour and leave.

In such for Shiloh and Ethel, "Hey Blossom. Remember me?"

"Brenna" I said surprised. "What are you doing here."

"For the party, what else"

"I thought it was for-"

"Yes." Brenna cut in. "Am among you guys. I've just joined high school or you've forgotten that we're in the same class."

"So you school to Liana too"

"Yep. Just that I came yesterday to school. I was sick so...you get"

"Hmmm"

"Okay. See you around."

I gave her a small closed lips smile before continuing with my search of Ethel and Shiloh where I found them I the kitchen area.

"Hey girls" I greeted

"You're early." Ethel said sarcastically.

"And am leaving early"

"Why?" Shiloh wanted to know.

"It's nothing. Just that I don't like very late night parties when I can't rely on anyone present that much."

"You're right...But trust me. I'll watch you don't worry. It's not like I even drink." said Ethel.

"You mean I do" Shiloh asked

"Did I say you do?"

"It's like what you want to say"

"Oh well..I know you want me to talk about you, okay. Shiloh drinks" Ethel teased with a grin.

"No I don't"

"Chill...don't you drink water, tea, juice"

I laughed at Ethel's defense statement as Shiloh sends her daggers.

"You're stare won't kill me" Ethel smirks, finishing her glass of passion juice.

"Look who we found here guys." I hear a voice coming our way and I turn to see who it is as Ethel and Shiloh look that way too.

"Hey Blossom."
