Ordinary Girl

Chapter 1: About me.

Hey! My name is Jane, I'm 17 years old, I'm from London, I have loads of friends and I'm quite popular in my school! I love taking pictures, it kind of keeps the memories so I always keep the camera in my bag, it is the only thing that cheers me up when I'm mad or upset.

"Aren't you excited, Jane." said my friend Emma.

She's more than a best friend to me, we're like sisters, I've known her since I was born she really gets me and importantly she loves the way I am she's not like the others who wants to change me so she could be with a fake me.

"Yes, I am, can't wait, Em!" I said smiling to her.

I'm gonna travel with her to NYC after we finish school, I've always dreamed of visiting NYC, although I wanted to go on Christmas or New Year's Eve, I don't care that we'II be in summer. I'm happy that I'm visiting NYC with my best friend. Yes I'm that kind of girl that when she's happy she wants everyone to be happy too and shares eveything with her best friend.

My friend noticed that I was thinking alot and I'm not giving her attention so she interrupted me, "JAANEEE! What are you thinking about?" She smiled giving me a wink, as I came back to reality.

"Nothing, Em, I was just wondering what would it be like! I still can't believe that I'm going to my dream city, but I'm also afraid, I don't know, maybe it's not a good idea going there it's like I'm realizing that I acheived my dream, what would be my next goal?" I said shakingly.

I'm afraid to achieve the dream and I won't have another goal to reach. "Come on,  you've  told me before {A Man who can't dream is a lifeless man } And I bet you don't want to be lifeless, we're still young to try new things eventhough we're afraid to achieve our dreams but we'll find another." She said smiling, as usual. 

I was just thinking what if we weren't friends, I would be a misrable person. I smiled and we went to our classes.

First period Algebra, great, I thought while  going to class and to be honest, I hate Algebra I don't know how I get those high grades in it, that always surprises me! Anyway I went to the class, said hi to the others and my teacher and sat in my place.

I was not actually focusing with the teacher. I was thinking about that trip, eventhough it's early to think about it right now, but, it'll be a great escape to forget about everything just for a moment.

The last bell rang, I went back from school and found my mom in the kitchen cooking. "Hello my dear, how was school today?" She said smiling at me.

My mom is my first best friend. Eventhough, I might lie and fake smiling, mom always gets me. She can see right through me and know how I am by just looking at me. I just find it weird people say they don't get me if I'm happy, sad, or even calm.

The point is I don't show anyone anything, it's not like I'm faking, it's just I don't want to share everything with people even when they tell me secrets and say that I'm trustworthy, I think I am, but I don't trust people that easy, that's my problem but my social life is great I'm having more than 100 friends that's why I'm popular but it's not like I'm telling them everything, I'm popular in a different way! I ate lunch with mom, went to my room after that, then I found  my sister Jenny knocking on the door.  

Jenny is my older sister, we have a very confusing relationship. We fight and after 10 minutes laugh at what we're doing and laugh and then fight it's very confusing, but, after all we love each other she always says {You're my best friend I trust you Jane}.

"What do you want, Jenny?" I asked. I don't know what she wants that must be very important.

"No, ermm, nothing. Am I disturbing you?" She said a sad tone.

I can see it in her eyes or by her voice now I'm worried, I was doing my homework but I don't mind at aII the interrupt, I told her no, after all I've got only two papers to finish and I can finish them any time later.

She sat on my bed and started to cry. "Jenny, what's wrong I've never seen you like that before?" I said starting to get worried even more.

Jenny cried and cried, and, I didn't ask again knowing that if she cries she'll feel better I wondered why she was crying like that did her dreaming collage refuesed to have her or did she had bad gardes or  failed? Then, she got up and started to talk and I listened carefully to what she is going to say. "I broke up with Henry." She said, I was shocked!

Henry and Jenny were like the best couples ever. I thought their relationship will never last, they were meant to be. Henry was like my brother that I've never had, he's gentle and very sweet. I even wanted to find someone like him! 

There must be a misunderstanding! I need to know why they broke up. "Why?" I asked. That's all what came out of my mouth, that's all I can say. 

"Erm... I caught him cheating." And she sobbed even more.

 I must see him to know what had happened, why would he cheat? I thought, I will meet him but I can't tell Jenny, she'll refuse. I know my sister once she's mad about something, we can't dicuss it again, at least not in front of her.

I entertained her until she fell asleep and she asked me to not tell mom or dad about that, I agreed hoping that they'll get back and we don't have to tell anyone about the break up thing. Henry promised my parents that he'd take care of Jenny. If dad knows, he'll be quiet mad at him.

Dad came from work he seems tired but he never lost that smile in his face. He's trying to be strong and assures us that everything is okay. He's my hero, he's not just a dad to me actually, he's my friend. I have those friends who don't love their dads that much, and those who're afraid of their dads but not me, not my dad.

My dad is special, he's trying to be my friend, he cares about me and Jenny, he's trying his best to make us happy, he loved Henry when Jenny introduced him to us, Dad was happy that Jenny was happy with him. He saw the love in Henry's eyes but I can't tell dad he seems so tired and I've promised Jenny to not tell.

"Jane, Where's Jenny? Is she with Henry?" Dad interrupted my thoughts.

"No, ermm, she's just tired and went to sleep early." I said, smiling to assure him that she's fine.

We ate dinner, I said goodnight, took a shower and went to bed, but I couldn't sleep I'm thinking about my dream of going to NYC and enjoying my time with Emma.

The break up news, Did he really cheat? Did he forget his love for Jenny? Did he forget the great time they had spent together? So many questions in my head, I'll know eveything tomorrow when I wake up, I need to find the truth I know Henry won't do that to my sister, but, I'm not saying Jenny is lying,  "I will know, I will find the truth" I whispered and drifted into deep sleep.

Hope you liked it , What do you think Jane will do tomorrow ? Will she find the truth ? You'll know next chapter please comment your opinion I will love it , Thanks xx
