danger

Chapter 2

Time went by really fast, and it was now the sunday before my first day in my new school. Since that day at Charlotte's, we met every single day. Of course, today wouldn't be different. She called me first thing in the morning and asked if I wanted to go to the mall with her. I really wanted to, but this day was also my father's and my mother's first day at their new office, so I had to decline it. I spent the morning organizing my stuff for school, which didn't feel bad at all. I kept thinking about studying with Char and that felt amazing. I had never had a best friend. Was it possible that in a couple weeks I got one? Or was I overreacting? She probably didn't consider me her best friend, or did she? She probably had a lot of friends. When she called me, around 11am, I was already home alone so I placed my phone in the kitchen counter and talked to her while I made a lemonade. She said she was super happy she was going to study with me, and asked me which were my classes. We had a total of 9 classes a day. We were together in 5 of them. Not bad!
After that, I just spent the rest of the day enjoying my last day of vacation. My parents arrived around 6:30pm, with such happy faces I forgot about whatever was worrying me and came straight to a hug. They told me everything and every detail about their first day, in a happiness level that made me think if I had ever seen them so happy. That made me happy too. We talked for hours and they told me to go to sleep. I did, but slept only after an hour, thinking about what the next day would bring. I had a weird dream, but couldn't ever remember what it was.
