My Life As Keira

Chapter 1: Keira moves

"Mom I don't want to leave California all of my friends are here and if I go to a new school then everyone would be looking at me like I'm an animal" I said. "Girl you know this job is important for me and since they gave me a raise we moving, plus Aaliyah seems fine with it" my mom said "Whatever mom...I just need to finish packing". "Ok but hurry our plane lands in 45 minutes and it takes 25 minutes to get there" my mom said. " I know I'll be down in a second" So right when I was packing my shoes my sister Aaliyah came in. "Keke are you excited about moving to New York!" Aaliyah said. "Get out I'm trying to pack". "Ugh your so mean! Why can't you be nice like Tamara" Aaliyah said. "I AM NICE WHEN MY ANNOYING LITTLE SISTER ISN'T BOTHERING ME WHEN I'M TRYING TO PACK!" I said. "Whatever, I wish Tamara was my sister instead of my cousin" Aaliyah mumbled. "I don't care just get out!!!" I said. As soon as everyone was done packing we got to the airport and got on out plane to New York where I have a new life. So when we got to our apartment the moving truck moved all our furniture in and me, Aaliyah , and my mom unpacked our clothes that's when Aaliyah asked me to take a picture of her so I did that and went into my room and my lord my room was HUGE.

 It was the next day and I threw on some jeans and a black and white polka dotted shirt with some black and white Jordan's. When I got into the kitchen, Aaliyah was wearing the same thing as me but I think our dad got us that outfit. "Aaliyah can you please take that outfit off. I'm taking you to school today and I AIN'T gonna show up to school matching my 10 year old sister" I said. "FINE! I'll go change, I bet Tamara wouldn't mind matching with m-". "I DON'T CARE IF TAMARA WOULD CARE IF Y'ALL MATCH I DONT CARE STOP TALKING ABOUT TAMARA!!!!!!" I screamed. That's when my mom came and out. And she was not happy at all. "Y'all betta stop screaming and arguing and get your butts to school, I got work in 1 hour and I'm tryin' to get sleep". my mom said. "Sorry momma" me and Aaliyah said at the same time. As I drove me and Aaliyah to school, Aaliyah didn't say a WORD to me not even "bye" when she got out the car. As I turned into Western High School there were high schoolers everywhere so I rushed inside the principal's office to clarify who I was. "Hi Mrs. Wood I'm Keira Squire and I'm the new student. "Oh yes Miss. Squire here is your class schedule: Algebra 1: 8:00-9:25 Chemistry : 9:25-10:45 Civics: 10:45-12:00 Algebra 2: 12:00-1:20 Science:1:20-1:50 Spanish:1:50-2:30 . "Thanks. Well I need to get going I don't wanna be late on the first day" I said. So I walked to my first class which was very noisy and everyone was throwing paper balls, one even hit my head. So I went to go take my seat next to some emo girl who looked at me so creepy that I started shaking inside. When Mr. Wilson came in everyone calmed down that's when he called on me and I froze. "Class I would like for you to meet Keira Squire she is a new student that came from California. Keira can you come up and tell us stuff about you" he said. So I walked up and gave facts about me and went back to my seat. When I was done with all my classes I went to lunch and I grabbed a burger, fries and a sprite from the vending machine. I sat down at a table with some girls and their boyfriends who I can tell that didn't like me. "Oh hey new girl my name is Tess King and I run this school, so if you ever try to ruin my popularity then you'll regret the day you came Keira Squire!" Tess said. "Ok.. I'll try not to get in your way" I said nervously. That's when a cute boy walked by he was a nice dark skinned boy like Meek Mill he kind of looked like Meek Mill to.

 So that's when he came to my table and sat next to the cheerleader Nicole and I could tell they were dating because they leaned in to each other and did a nice long 30 second kiss. I used to have a boyfriend in California but he moved and he couldn't take the long distance relationship so we broke up. So that's when he looked at me and smiled he had nice dimples and lemme to tell ya, I LOVE boys with dimples. So that's when he said: "Hi my name is Duane Williams and this is my girlfriend Nicole Simmons" he said. As soon as school was over I went over to the middle school and picked up Aaliyah who seemed very ANGRY. "Aaliyah you ight" I asked. "NO BECAUSE I ASKED THIS GIRL FOR HER PENCIL SHARPNER AT LUNCH AND SHE POURED CHOCALATE MILK ON MY HAIR!!!!!" she screamed. "Ok tomorrow show me this girl and I'll handle this" I said. "Really?!. Thanks so much, I was wrong about you, you are nice like Tamara". So we hugged and we went home and that's when my mom was angry as well. "That girl poured chocolate milk in your hair?!!" my mom almost yelled. "Yea her name is Isabelle Garcia I think, I tried to tell the teacher but she was in the bathroom crying because her stupid boyfriend dumped her!" Aaliyah said. "Well tomorrow I'm going to the school because no one puts chocolate milk and my baby's hair".

 That's when there a knock on the door and I could never believe my eyes. The man in the military suit with a name tag marked Squire was standing right there with bags and with a smile and that man was my father. My mom ran to the door and almost knocked me over she jumped in my dad's arms and hugged him tight. So my dad went my parents' room and changed. When it was dinner we talked a lot and had TONS of laughs. It was 10:00 pm and I got a text from an unknown ID. So I answered this and said "Who are you" and the unknown person said it's Duane so I called him and asked him how he got my number he said "Girl you gave me your Instagram then you gave me your phone number for some reason" "Oh yea..hehe sorry about that" we talked about 30 minutes then that's when I got off the phone and went to sleep.

It was the next morning and my mom didn't have work but my dad was still sleep. So my mom was off of work today and she was dressed in grey sweatpants, black shirt and some flip-flops. "C'mon I'm driving yall to school and Keira you're coming in with me too" my mom said. "But mom I can't afford to be la-" I said. "I said you're coming with me, don't make me repeat it" she said angrily. "Whatever" I mumbled. So Aaliyah and I got into my mom's van and went to Aaliyah's school which was very crowded outside. My mom, Aaliyah and I walked to the principal's office and talked about what happened. "Um excuse me Mrs. Taylor but I like to talk with Ms. Richards because at lunch my daughter ask to borrow a pencil sharpener and the girl reacted by pouring chocolate milk and her hair and instead the teacher being in there to watch the students she was in the bathroom crying because her boyfriend broke up with her" my mom said frustrated. "Well I'll be sure to talk with the teacher" said Mrs. Taylor.

So after that long conversation with my mom and the principal, I finally went to my part of the school and got to my class as fast as I could because looking at my watch it was 5 minutes to 8 and I was almost late for class. I ran so fast that I had to stop by the fountain and get a quick drink of water at the fountain. So I continued to run to class and when I got into class everyone stopped and stared at me. "Good morning Mr. Wilson I'm so sorry I'm late my mom needed me fo-" I said. "No excuses Miss Squire you're late and now you have detention" Mr. Wilson said looking at me. "Good job new girl it's your second day and your late" said Tess. So I was finally brave and I slapped Tess so hard that she fell out her seat. So I had to go to the principals office and get a pass for and extra 2 hours for abusing a classmate so I guess I'm in detention till 5 o'clock which really sucked. So I went into the lunch room and sat at a table all by MYSELF which was great because I didn't want to sit next to these people you call students. So that's when Duane came over and sat next to me, but the thing was: Where was Nicole?. "H-Hey Duane where's Nicole"? I said stuttering. "We broke up she likes someone else..." he said as his voice trailed off. "Oh I am sorry" I said. "Yea...well do you wanna come to a movie with me " he said like he was nervous to ask me. "Sure but meet at 7:30"?. "Sure" he said. So after my detention hours were over I went home and put on a white emoji T-shirt with some skinny jeans and some purple and white Jordans. Before I left I went into the bathroom and made a perfect bun before I left so I waited outside for Duane. Then a sports car that was red and black pulled up into the front of my apartment.
