Life can be hard , Life can be complicated but life can also be amazing and fun . You can choose whatever path you want to go to , just know what's best for you . More importantly make the right choice . When things get difficult , you can't just walk away and wait for a miracle to happen .
A girl named Amanda was always the girl at school who had no friends , not because she's a geek , not because she's " UGLY " , But because she was a goth with small tattoos and piercings . Either people think she's scary or she's just weird . She never knew what popularity felt like . She knew her life was miserable , ever since her mum died .
Amanda's mum died when she was 9 years old , and now she's 16 . Her mum died because she was murdered . No one knew
the exact truth but according to dad . They found her body 3 miles across the river . Her stomach was stabbed , she had cuts around her neck and she was covered in blood . It still haunts Amanda . She still thinks of her every day / night . It took a while to recover . She thinks her life is terrible , and she always have bad luck no matter what .
One day she came home from school , she walked in the living room . As she was about to walk up the stairs she stopped for a second . " Amanda ! You're home ! Honey.... I need to talk to you ". says Amanda's dad . As she walked down the stairs , walking towards dad she replies "Uh , what's going on "?
" We need to change our lives , and our habits ". Without mum here is very frustrating , it's been hard through these years . I wanted to change out lives and make it better with just the two of us baby girl . I can't handle seeing you depressed all the time . We're moving to back to London by the end of the week ".
Amanda drops her bag , ran to her dad and hugged him tight . She starts to cry as her voice starts to crack . " Dad .. I'm glad you're willing to make our lives better ".
As the week past . New town , new people , new school and a new home . They began to unpack and decorate their new rooms . Amanda and her dad turned music on and began to dance while decorating . For the first time in 5 years , they both had a blast . Her and her dad was laughing and bonding .
Next morning she looked at her self in the mirror . Thinking she looks nothing like her mum , that she's ugly and probably the reason why she has no friends. " This is a new start , Tomorrow is my first day of my new school and i will make it perfect ". She said happily .
A friendly neighbour named Kayleigh knocked on our door . * RING RING * As Her dad opened the door . " Hi there ! How may i help you "? He asked politely . " Oh ! i just came by to welcome you to our neighbourhood . I just thought maybe i could make a new friend but i guess not because you're an adult haha " She answered in a very disappointed way .
Amanda comes running down ! " Whose there "? She asked with full excitement . " Hi ! I'm Kayleigh * shakes hands *i came by to say hello ! I love making new friends haha ! would you like to maybe hang out "? Amanda replies " Hi , i'm Amanda ! A new friend ? I never had any of those . Would you like to come in ? I'm just about to paint my wall ! " Sure " !
Amanda enjoys Kayleigh's company . They started sharing a lot of secrets and stories ! They both found out that they will be going to the same school . Kayleigh was super excited , Kayleigh also didn't have friends just people who wants her tutor them .
They both wanted to have a new start , especially Amanda . They decided to go shopping at the mall close by ! She begged her dad to go . He gave her 300 $ with a smile on his face .
Before they left , Amanda removed all her black make up and walked out with a natural face . They went to the hair dresser and she decided to dye her hair brunette and to have it layered . Amanda looked stunning ! She's prettier than she has ever been . The natural her is way better than the emo her .
* Tick tock * It was 8 Pm , Time to get ready for the first day of school .
As Amanda was walking home , There was sudden breeze that past through her hair . She turned around , No one was there , she just continued walking . Then , she turned around . A GIRL WAS RUNNING TOWARDS HER WHILE SCREAMING , * BOOM* Amanda realises that That girl who was running wasn't running past but WAS RUNNING THROUGH . She opened up her eyes widely , her heart was beating so fast and her whole body was shaking . She panicked , she started to run home as fast as she could . As soon as she got in the house , she slammed the door .
* Deep Breathing * with complete silence . Until she turned around * AHHH * There goes her dad . " Honey , Why you screaming ? And why do you look so scared , are you okay "? " uh .. yes dad , i'm perfectly fine , ummm sorry uhhh we watched a scary at the cinema and umm it was fun but frightening as she studded. " haha okay hun , By the way , i love the new look , you like your mother . beautiful , anyways goodnight , sleep tight ".
She started smiling when he told her that she looked her mother . She laid down on her bed still thinking about that girl she saw running . She was really scared so she slept the whole night with the covers over her head .
Well , tomorrow is a big day for her . Let's see what happens next ...........
