Life is not fair or at least not to me. If it was fair starvation, poverty, and disease would not exist. For my case what is not fair is me moving across the country to attend Woodrow School for Troubled Young Ladies. What I ,Veronica Schneider, did was not bad enough to send me here or at least what I think. My parents no longer tell people that I am their daughter. My sister sleeps with a motion detected on her door, so I cannot go in there.
The only person that is truly there for me is Ashley O'Brian my BFF. After the incident she is the only one of my friends that stayed with me. She thought what I did was wrong but she doesn't think I am a bad person.
In fact I would rather go across the country than stay in my town of Princeton, NJ. Everyone here is so posh and are disgusted at the sight of me. A town with an Ivy League school should not have a resident with a rap sheet. They would stare and point like I was some kind of alien with three heads. If I walk on one side of the streets people would switch sides so they don't get juvenile stink on them.
Thinking back on the horrible thing I had done I realized I was so stupid. I was obviously going to get either sent to juvie,an insane asylum, or somewhere like Woodrow. Now I stand at JFK airport with all of my belongings. "Flight 69, please get ready to bored the plane," exclaimed an annoyingly high pitched voice lady over the intercom.
"Goodbye Veronica. We will see you in June for summer break." My father grumbled as he gave me a handshake.
Really a freakin' handshake! He was not going to see me in 10 months and all I get is a handshake!
My mom gave me a hug that lasted about two seconds. Then came someone who was sad to see me go...
"Bye Roni Boo" my best friend managed to spit out in between sobs. Her fair skin was dripping with tears and mascara but I didn't care, I was happy someone was sad to see me go. "I will call you five times a day Roni Boo"Ashley said. I rolled my eyes at her nickname she gave to me and moved on to the last person.
My 10 year old sister Cristian or as I call her Coco looked at me with her big brown eyes. They were mixed with different emotions. Scared of me and what I did but with a slight glint of sadness. I hug her and she is reluctant at first but gives into the hug. I then hear her say something I have not heard her say since the incident.
"I will miss you Roni. I love you." She whispered.
That one sentenced caused tears to well up in my striking blue eyes. I reply " I love you too."
With that I turn and go toward the doors. I give the lady the ticket and walk into the plane finding a seat. I then think to myself my new life starts ... now.
