Bad Luck

Chapter 3 : The final year

Here it was, the moment I've been waiting for, the last year of primary school, grade 7. I have been elected as prefect which meant I was finally free to be outside and not in a room.

Grade 7 was supposed to be the best year of my life but was actually the worst. Every day I was late for class because there was this couple kissing by my locker every morning so I couldn't really get my books. I would get detention every single day.

There was a very bad problem that I had. I couldn't get to see Stefan! Stefan was in another class and we only got to see each other once a month. It was actually sad because I was really hoping to see him this year. Sipho, Lisa and the populars were still bullying me but I managed to go with it. I think I was so used to being bullied that I really didn't care what they did anymore.

Exams came and I studied day and night. I found the exams really easy while the others struggled. I handed in my exams but Sipho decided to stay after class and when we got back into class ....... my exams were cut up and shredded. It was in shreds and I got zero for every exam. I asked the principal if I could write the exam again but she said no at first but when I told her what happened she said I could take it again. I retook the exam and got 80% and over for every exam. I guess I was just glad to rewrite the exams. My mom applied at my dream school, Winston High school. 3 months later I received an email stating that I have been accepted. I was so happy.
