third chapter

y/n's POV

saturday morning

I have been living in Atlanta for three whole days now and I already love it even though I haven't seen much yet. And school hasn't even started. School is my biggest fear and has always been the biggest fear of my exchange year. Two more days until school starts. Two. Yesterday I went to our neighbors house and met the Swedish exchange girl. Her name is Emilia and she's super nice. Yesterday I went over to her house and helped her unpacking. We talked for hours about the exchange year and our fears about it. We also talked about our whole lives and everything and anything I literally told her so much and she's also telling me everything and I really like her. We only hung out for one day and we already love each other so much.

My phone makes a "ding" and it starts to light up. I grab it and see notifications from emilia.

ems:
heyy, good morning
do you want to go on a shopping spree

you:
yeahh ofc just tell me what time

ems:
would in half an hour work?

you:
sure& i'll ask my host mom if she can drive us

ems:

_______

I go downstairs and spot my host mom in the kitchen. ,,Hey, can you drive me and emilia to the mall in 30minutes. We want to go on a shopping spree for school" i ask her. She looks up to me and answers: "yeah ofc, i'm glad that you already made friends. See you have nothing to worry about" with a soft smile on her face. She has been so nice to me this whole time I really appreciate her. We talk a little until I go upstairs again to get dressed. After I put on light makeup and charge my phone while packing my bag with a powerbank, gum, money and lip-balm. Then emilia rings the doorbell so I open and hug her. We go over to my moms car and wait there until she's ready. We drive about 13 minutes and thank her for driving us.

emilia: okay shopping first or nails first?

y/n: lets just go to the nail salon and ask them when we can come, in case they are overbooked for later

emilia: sounds like a plan

We search the mall for the nail salon and its kind of hard to find because we're both here for the first time in our life. After a lot of walking and looking around we discovered a second building of the mall and just burst out laughing because we literally walked in a circle for 15 straight minutes with no clue. We directly see the nail salon when entering the second building and feel so dumb but are glad that we found the salon. We ask the lady at the counter when they are free and she told us now or in 5 hours so we chose to do our nails now. We take out our phones and look for nail inspo on pinterest. We both choose some basic minimalistic designs and were  finished after like 2 hours.

Then we went to a loooot of shops and bought many basic pieces since you can never go wrong with them. Then we ate some burgers and talked until my host mom picked us up.

I spent the whole next day doing nothing and facetiming my friends from back home and update them. Then I decided to call henry and check up on him and see how his life is. He told me it was pretty cool but he has to wake up early to do some disgusting chores like cleaning the toilet. My host family doesnt force me to help in the household since I already volunteer to help in the kitchen and cook sometimes. And I always clean up and they're really thankful. Now its sunday night. A few hours until school starts and I'm nervous as hell. I lay in bed for hours trying to fall asleep until I do.
