Chapter 5 : Settling Down
The moving out van came, they put all the my boxes and luggage into it. I was very anxious. I had big eye bags, red eyes and my eyes were small because of all the crying and obviously make up couldn't cover it.
The police officer came. She smiled at me and gave me a hug.
"Don't worry sweetheart, don't worry about school or anything. By the way my name is Nora. Call me that." She said.
I've got to like her, she will be looking after me, I don't hate her, she's doing a good thing, I'm actually starting to like her.
She led me into her car, it was a normal car,luckily she didn't drive me in a police car. I'm just thinking about school. I'm going to miss Alana. If only she can come and visit me, now.
We drove off. In the car she tried starting a conversation. It was really nice of her. We were talking about my GCSEs and stuff.
Then we arrived. This is what I'm nervous about. I got out of the car. Luckily the apartment was only two minutes away from the house. Outside it looked really posh.
We entered the main building and climbed up the few steps to get to my place. My apartment was number 5. We went in. It was massive!
It was newly refurbished, had furniture and each room is colour coded! Oh my god I love this!
"Okay darling, make yourself at home, you don't need to put your clothes away yet. I'll buy some hot chocolate." She said as she left with a smile.
I sat down on my sofa. My. Sofa. Mine. Everything is mine!
I sat down for five minutes taking everything in. I suddenly heard a knock on the door. It's probably Nora. I opened the door. It was Josh.
I ran to him and hugged him.
"Oh my god Josh, so much happened and I can't believe that m-"
"Sh sh sh sh! It's okay Zara. I know everything. We are all here for you." He said.
I soon got off him because it was getting disgusting.
"I'm so glad you're here! At least someone is here too visit me!" I said.
"Yeah yeah. Just get settled. So lucky you have your own place. You can have parties. Get boys around... If you know what I mean." He insisted with a cheeky grin on his face.
"Shut up. You're not making it better." I exclaimed.
I wasn't going to invite him in. He is such a dickhead.
"Anyway, it was nice of you to visit. Bye." I said in a rush as I slammed the door in his face.
Wow. I am mean. Darn. I sat back down.
I was just waiting for Nora. I was daydreaming for a bit, I laid my head on the edge of the sofa.
Finally Nora came with some hot chocolate.
"Oh darling, I'm so sorry it took time! There was a large que!" She explained as she handed me my drink.
We were drinking our drinks in silence. It was getting awkward.
"So um, I think we should get to know each other." Nora insisted.
"I'll start off! My name is Nora Reed. I am 28. I have a boyfriend. Ha. I will be looking after you. I will visit everyday. Favorite colour is violet. Favorite show is Countdown. I live right opposite you. I was born in Manchester. As you can see I am a police. Might quit. Favorite movie is Titanic. Oh my god Leonardo Dicaprio is so fit isn't he?!!......." Nora said waiting for an answer.
"I don't know." I said with no expression.
"Oh okay. How about you?! Come on! Be a little lively!" Nora insisted.
"Oh gosh...um...I'm Zara Reed. I don't have a boyfriend. Shocker. My favorite colour is purple. I also love countdown. I also love watching Violetta on Disney Channel. It's originally Spanish, Latin American but English is dubbed. And I was born in the world. London to be specific." I said sarcastically.
"Nice! Do you mind me checking up on you everyday? I really don't want you to hate me or anything." She asked.
"No no no of course not. I'm actually glad you're here." I admitted.
"Oh thank god! Now get comfy dear! Watch tv. This is your place. You do whatever you want!" She said.
"Okay cool."
"I'm going to leave darling. My number is on the fridge. The government is paying for you. Sooner or later you will need to get a job." She said as he went to the door.
"Okay, bye Nora." I said.
She waved goodbye and left. She's not bad you know. But why am I treated like a kid?! I'm bloody 18!
I turned the tv on. Oh my god. Titanic was on. It literally just started. I should invite her over. Nah let me just watch this. Next is Friends With Benefits! Double! I'm watching them both. Who cares if it's innappropriate. I'm 18 and have my own place!
I headed to my kitchen. My kitchen. It's nicely designed with red and grey tiles. I opened the fridge. Took a can of coke out and some crisp from the cupboard. I watched both movies and dozed off. What am I doing with my life?!!
I woke up at 9:00, got my clothes out of the luggage, changed into them and found my way to my bedroom. A double bed just for me, although I'm really scared. I decided to text Alana.
