Maia Cervantes-
"Stop moving Mai!" My mother groaned for five hundredth time this morning. We've been up since 5 a.m getting ready. Today is the first day of school and first day at a new Law Firm for my mother. California and Detroit are extremely different with school. Usually in Detroit school starts around 8:45 but over here schools starts at 7:30.
After about five minutes she was finished straightening my hair , usually I would do it but she insisted that she do it. Although my mother did not agree I wore both a light gray top and joggers with an olive green jacket with all white sneakers. She always thought I dressed way too tomboy , but its whatever I feel comfortable in.
It has been a week since I last since seem Kris but we have been texting been texting ever since. He was suggested that he should pick me up for school since I didn't have a car and I'm new to the area.
It was now going on to 7:10 and I was just finishing applying my brown lipstick and a little mascara. I worked my way downstairs to grab something light to eat.
I settled on a granola bar and a banana for breakfast because I did not want to be late. Within that time I scrolled through my social media to past time.Shortly , after my phone buzzed signaling I received a text message.
Kris : im outside
I quickly sent back an "ok" before grabbing my bag that was near the door.
"Ma, I"m leaving!" I shouted before opening the door to leave.
"Bye Mai . Have a great day !" She smiled finally coming down the steps.
"You look nice today." I complimented. She worn a gray suit and her hair pulled into a sleek low bun.
She simply smiled and kissed my cheek. I headed out the door to see Kris's Audi sitting in my driving.
"Morning." I smiled climbing in the passenger seat and sitting my backpack on the floor.
Kris rested his head on the window and pretending to be sleep and snore.
"Kris." I tried straight facing him.
"Whoops. My bad somebody was talking five years to leave their house." He sarcastically commented.
"Whatever." I playfully rolled my eyes and tried to not to smile while failed miserably.
It was not too long before he pulled out my driveway to get on the main road. I paid attention go where we going to I could eventually learn my way.
"So you nervous?" He questioned resting as he pulled up to a red light.
I shrugged , "Not really." I lied straight through my teeth. I was most definitely nervous , hell I was scared.
Being "the new girl" is always difficult. I've been to at least five different schools back in Detroit due to the complications of my parents marriage.
" I have a few friends to introduce to you maybe you will be able to click with them." He slightly smiled pulling in the parking lot of the school.
If no one knew that this was an high school your first guest would be a college.
"Woah." I mumbled lowly looking at the school as Kris cruised through the parking lot to find a parking.
"Its not that big once you get use to it." He chuckled a little bit before finding a parking spot close to an entrance.
I got few heads turning as Kris and I walked into the school together.Some were dirty and envious looks and someone guys were staring in amazing.
I was never the type to try to get a guys attention. I did my make up to look good for myself , I dressed well to look good for myself , and I tried something different with my hair for myself.
