THUMP

I slam the door to the passenger's seat of my mom's car shut as i enter it. I sit there as my mom starts revving up the engine. She insisted on sending me to school on the first day for some reason.

She probably just has nothing to do, she closed her hair saloon for today. Her two workers took the day off which means that she'll be the only one working today. I guess she decided that having only one person working would be a bad idea.

Usually students would take a short nap in their cars when they're going to school, but i wanted to enjoy the view outside instead. A row of trees at each side of the road, with bright green leaves hanging on every branch. The dark blue sky, slowly turning brighter and brighter as the sun begins to rise.

Eventually, i fell asleep. I guess i didn't manage to get enough sleep last night.

By the time i woke up from my nap, it was 7:50a.m, 10 minutes before school starts.

"Bye, mom." I say before getting out of the car and shutting the door.

I turn around and face towards the building infront of me, students of every age walking around area.

New school, new life, right?

I start making my way towards the building. As i enter i realize, i have no idea where i'm going. I approach the closest person in the hallway.

"Hey, ummm do you happen to know where the new students are supposed to go?" I ask the boy.

"Yeah, the Secondary Office on the second floor, there will be a sign on top of the door to the Secondary Office, you can't miss it. Unless you're blind." The boy says to me.

"Pretty sure i'm not blind, considering the fact that i got in here without bumping into anyone or anything." I state to him.

He laughs, "You're a cool guy, i like you already, by the way, you might wanna run, you have 2 more minutes."

I check my watch, it's 7:58a.m.

"Shit." I say softly before i turn towards the stairs and start running. "THANKS!" I say to the boy while running up.

I stop infront of the door with the sign above it. I take a deep breath before reaching for the door knob. Slowly, i push the door open and i see a few other students waiting in the office. Well, good to know i'm not the only new student.
