Hafsa's p.o.v

It's Monday morning and it officially the third week of school. I've made more friends and know all of them say I'm popular but I don't like to say that cause it just doesn't seem right.

I take a really quick shower and go get ready for school. Today I decided to wear my hot pink long dress with a black cardigan on top. I added a belt as well. I took out a really pretty golden bracelet and my hot pink hijab. I took out my black flats and my side purse which is pink and has a golden chain.

Even though I've been here for three weeks I still haven't seen all the rooms. Now everyday Ummi makes breakfast for us and takes Sarah with her. Sarah doesn't come back until 4:00 so I bring my friends over usually.

After breakfast I leave the house with my keys and get a text message from Maryam.

Maryam: Hafsa guess what?

Hafsa: what?

Maryam: today's going to be my first day at Pleasant View

Hafsa: really, your coming

Hafsa: come over to my house, we will go together

Maryam: sure, be there asap!

I can't believe Maryam is actually coming to Pleasant View. I didn't even tell her that I'm kinda popular. Because of school we've been so distant but now she'll be with me for the rest of 12th grade, yes. I decide to go wait inside and tell Bilal everything, he didn't really care much.

Ding Dong!!! I go open the door and say Salam to Maryam. "Come on Maryam let's go the limo won't wait forever, well it will but let's just go".

"Sure there's no time to waste" Maryam replied.

At school:

I get out of the limo and a crowd of people come towards me. Boys and girls surround me asking questions. "Ahhh sorry guys but have you seen my friend Maryam?".

"Oh she's right there" Susan said. I rushed to Maryam "I'm so sorry I forgot to tell you about-" she cut me off.

"Hafsa I can't believe you're so popular here" she said astonished. "I'm sorry I forgot to tell you" I said shamefully.

"That's ok there's nothing wrong with that". She said.

I'm walking in the science lab with Maryam when all of a sudden, guess who pops up, Ahmed. "Ahmed move out of the way" I said annoyed.

"What you going to do, send me upstairs cause that's not happening" he said child like.

"Than at least move out of the way "I said calmly. "What are you going to do about it prin-" I cut him off. "Don't even think about it". I said and walked into the lab.

"That guy's cute Hafsa and you don't even care" Maryam whisper yelled to me. "Wait you think Ahmed is cute! If you go in the dictionary and search up annoying the definition is Ahmed." I said then all of a sudden Maryam starts laughing so I just ignore her.

"Ok class, we will be making a chemical reaction, for example water that starts to fizz then explodes." Mrs. Jordan started. "But I will be picking partners, one boy and one girl." Oh no I hate when this happens. "Ok Andrew and Jasmine your partners, Ava and Mike are partners, Hafsa and Ahmed are partne-" oh no not Ahmed. "What I'm partners with Ahmed, can I switch please" I asked. "No, the partner you get is the partner you keep, I guess you're stuck with Ahmed". I didn't bother listen to who else had which partner because I still couldn't believe that I'm partners with Ahmed Khalid.

Lunch time! Finally, I need to try to talk this out with my friends. Pleasant View is like any ordinary high school, the table you sit at no the first day of school is where you are for the rest of the year, unless you become more popular or more invisible. For the most popular people and their friends (which I'm one of the main ones, no mean to brag) they get to sit outside in the garden where there are shades and tables that are so pretty. On rainy, or snowy days we sit in a room were only popular kids are allowed those two places are reserved the whole year for us.
