Hmmm! Guys how's your everything going? Mine has really been tough though but what can I do?

Anyways let's forget about my wahala and focus on Hailey's. Enjoy reading my book, Uhm! please let's not be angry abeg.

If you're a Christian or a Muslim do me a favour, well if you're an atheist no probs just skip this part.

....................... 🙏🙏🙏.......................

Lord (mention your God) I thank you for my life. I pray you help me push the 🌟 below after reading. Help me to share and follow the writer, help me continue reading this novel even when the current chapter is annoying. Help me never to give up on this book. One more thing Lord, make sure the writer of this novel doesn't write anything dry. If she mistakenly tries writing trash, spank her butts for me(I didn't mean that okay). Amen.

Let the story begin!

I turned to look at the box my daddy gave me, my sweet sixteen. It reminded me of old memories, my mood changed completely . Evelyn seemed to understand, she patted my shoulder and carried the remaining bags upstairs leaving me with my precious box.

The library and gym are the rooms downstairs. The equipment and furniture will be arriving tomorrow. Evelyn already applied for an online job earlier here so she's just gonna start work, well at least I wish.

I opened the box once more and took out the drawing book my dad gifted me. After taking a close look at it I dropped it on my chair, well it's meant to be on my bed frame but that's when the furniture is here. I draw everyday and since the old one is full I'll be using this one. I usually exhaust my sketch pads every month so maybe that's why he got me a larger one. I admire it again, I just love it. I'll shop for canvass and colour pencils, paints and brushes. No more Wattpad I guess, maybe for now.

I arranged my room with some stickers. I don't hang pictures in my room, I hang artworks, so for now no frames. I smile at my thoughts.

" I speak like a legend"
Dad will be proud of me. I went back to the box and got my album. I titled it "memories never die". I flipped through the pages, my childhood days at Puerto Rico, my baby pictures in England and more of my adolescent pictures mostly with my dad. I took a picture at the airport and I'm gonna paste it here
"My first day in New York City"
I packed my stuff neatly in the box and hid it in my room. I opened my boomplay and listened to solitary music, no dancing for now.

My mind wandered imagining my first day in school here. My door opener gently showing Evelyn.

" You're done already? "

" Yeah but I wish the room was painted gold with a touch of white. I really hate green. " I said squeezing my face.

" It's okay we can still repaint it anyways "

" Thanks! Let's make something together I'm starving ".

" Let's just order pizza coz I'm tired, aren't you? Besides there are no foodstuffs on here ".

" That's true. Add chocolates! "

" What? Pizza and chocolates? "

" It's not that odd. Please! "

" Nope. See ya! "

Urgh!

1st day of school.

...........................

Today's gonna be my first day in school. I don't want to look so classy, I don't want unecessary stares at all today. My room is in its correct way. Gold and white walls with my bedspread black and the pillows white. I made a small portion where my drawing and painting materials are. My room is very big just the way I like it. My clothes are all fit in the wardrobe, everything was in its place.
I'm kind of a perfectionist, Virgos ♍ for you.

Evelyn walked into the room dressed in her uniform. Her nursing regalia looks so good on her if I must say.

"What are you putting on?"

"A dress?" I said confused.

"You need to look very smart and eye catching dear" she advised as she walked closer to me packing my hair.

"This is becoming frustrating, I'm thinking of locking this hair or better still cutting it" I said to her and she frowned.

"You won't try that. Don't you know the beauty of a woman is in her hair?"

" I seriously don't buy that "

" Whatever! You look better now. You're beautiful dear"

"Thanks. I'll be meet you soon. Gimme five minutes " I tell her as she walked out.

I stood in front of my fool length mirror and took a look at my self. I'm wearing a slightly baggy trouser which was kinda gold then a white crop top that hung to my body.

A light makeup won't hurt.

I applied my lipgloss and then powder. I admired my slightly fair skin. Thank goodness I'm not so dark. I took a hoodie matching the colour of my trousers and put it on. I'm some how addicted to hoodies, I love them and I've got trillions of them. I wear them always, depending on my outfit.

I brought out my phone and took pictures facing my mirror then took my backpack with my sketchpad, jotter and pencils, I never forget them. I made sure my diary was in a hidden zipper in my bag.

"You've spent more than eternity in there" I heard Evelyn yell from downstairs.

"I'm coming, just a second mum's
I screamed running downstairs.

I got into the car and mum drove me to the school, it had its name written in bold lilac letters," Roosevelt's High School". I pray this school is as good as it looks.
