I woke up again the same time as yesterday. But this time it's not as hard as yesterday. I quickly went to take a shower and get ready for school. Today is the second day of school. Today I chose to wear a black and white stripes sweater and a black jeans and wear a leggings and t-shirt underneath it. After that I put on some powder, brushed my hair and went downstairs. When I get there, my mom is in the kitchen but I didn't see Wes."Good morning, sweetheart." My mom greets me.
"Morning mom. Where is Wes?" I asked her.
"He is in the bedroom, asleep. Too tired I think." My mom answers as she put an omelette to my plate.
"Not surprised." I said to her. Working for 9 hours non stop? I would sleep for like 9 hours more after that.
"Honey I'm sorry but I have to go to work now, you okay with that?" My mom asked me, cleaning her hands to a napkin.
She always works from 7 to 7 again. And sometimes she always had a meeting that make her have to stay for a night or more. But if she had a less job, she will be home by 5.30 or maybe earlier but it's rare. Wes always asked her to stop working her ass off but she won't do that. She has been a workaholic since we live for only two of us, before she met Wes. But it seems like she's addicted to it now, my dad would never let her to go to work until late night.
"Yeah I'm good." I said to her and she left to her room to change her clothes. I took a seat and started eating my omelette. As I almost finished my breakfast, my mom come back to the kitchen to bring her snack.
"Bye honey." she said to me then kissing my head. "Remember not to go home too late, and have a nice day at school!" she added and with that she walked out the kitchen and I hear the front door opened and closed.
It is now 7am. I still have 30 minutes before I went to the bus stop. I quickly finished my breakfast and put it in the sink. After that I went back to my bedroom to picked up my bag and went downstairs to the living room to watch TV. Time passed by, it's already 7.25 now but Wes hasn't wake up yet. So I decided to get ready, putting on my coat and shoes. I wanted to wake him up but I know that he need a rest so it's not going to be a great thing for him. I quickly swing my bag to my shoulder and leave the house.
It's not as cold as yesterday, but it is still snowing and too cold for me. I always hate winter, cold air, and night time. Luckily I wear tank top underneath my sweater. I arrived at the bus stop right in time. I get in, show the ticket to George and took my seat. I used to have the card for bus, so it is a lot cheaper. But mine is already expired and I'm too lazy to expend it. Then 5 minutes later, I arrived at school.
As I want to go to the school gate, something caught my eye. Actually, someone. There's a girl with a ginger hair stood in front of the school gate, looking at her phone. I easily recognise who it is. Of course, who would wear a tight short skirt and a crop top sweater to school in winter. It's Blair. I forgot that she's even here, in the same school as mine. She looks like she is waiting for a men to buy him. I didn't want to catch her attention so I quickly walk in to the school.
I went to my locker to put my coat and change my books. As I changed my books, I look around me to see if there any sight of Jake or Brody or any of them. Thank God there's no sight of them. And after that I quickly went to my first class, good thing I don't have any class with any of them today.
On the way to my first class I saw Debra from the opposite direction, making her way to the class. She's in the same class with me. I wanted to greet her but she just saw me, not saying anything. So I just keep in silence and give her a small smile. As we both approaching the class, she stopped and finally say something.
