6:00 am

The moment we got here I fell asleep but now I'm awake. Everything just seem em what is the word? Oh yeah 'different'

This house is bigger than the one we moved from and it has additional rooms but when I asked mom how she got this house, she just told me to forget about it and I had to cos I'm sure she will not answer me

●●●●●
I took a very hot shower even washing my hair ; I swear the dye used to dye my hair is extra extra permanent. I hope after everything is over, I get to remove it but damn I still look beautiful with it and by the way, when will everything be over?
●●●●●

After I finish taking my relaxing bath, I picked out a floral gown from the small baggage I could pack and packed my new hair into a messy bun and just applied a little make up and went downstairs.

Mom is already up and by the look of things, she's making apple pie! Oh my favourite! I love my mom!!!!
"Mom! Apple pie?" I scream

"Apple pie it is baby!"  She replies
I give her A tight hug and she plants a kiss on my forehead.
××××××××××
I finish eating my pie within 2 minutes. I'm serious. No exaggeration. I thank mom again for the special meal and begin to climb the stairs but get interrupted

"Anna, we need to talk." Said mom

"UhM,okay?" I said while taking a seat opposite her.

"Anna, I'm really sorry about all these troubles I'm giving you and all but I just want you to know that I didn't kill him on purpose..it was an act of self defence. I had to before he kills me. I'm sorry baby and by the way I already registered you at Louiseville high school which is about 10 minutes drive from here so I just want you to put all your pasts before you and start a new life...for me."

I do not really know what to say right now.. many feelings are flooding in me right now but she has to know I know this is not her fault so
"Mom I trust you, I'm sure you didn't kill him on purpose. I'll try mom to put all my pasts behind me and mom please Let's not speak of the reason we came here again"

she nods and I run upstairs and lay on the bed just staring at the beautifuly  decorated rooftop and soon I delve into the fairy tale world.

3:00pm
"Wake up Anna!" Is the sound which woke me up. It was my mom beautifully dressed with her new hair packed in a style I've no idea of what the name is called.

I check the clock beside my bed stand and it reads '3:00pm' like seriously I slept for about 8 hours. Wow well it's not my fault. I had a stupid dream

Then I faced my mom "Mom what's wrong?"

"Nothing, I just thought maybe you will want to go shopping cos you know you are starting your new school tomorrow?"
Oh shoot! It's tomorrow! I forgot!

"Oh yeah, let's go shopping. I'll meet you downstairs, let me just freshen up" and with that she nods and leave my room.  Next time, remind me to lock my room door.

I and mom are singing to 'if I were a boy' by beyonce while driving to the nearest Walmart store here which we could find through the maps stuff on her phone.

We arrived at the store and it's definitely the largest I've seen among all the Walmart stores.

We just bought clothes and school utensils and some makeup stuffs you know like those pencil stuff that you use to draw a line across your eyes and then lipsticks and powder and that liquid stuff your put on your face to hide your acnes and pimples and others and we bought some food stuffs and not to mention CHOCOLATES! And we are done+
●●●●●
When we get home, it's about 7 pm and I need to sleep early because I've school tomorrow. So I jst help mom move the stuffs to the fridge and some to the basement and I take whatever belongs to me and zoom to my room.

I bought a diary, you know incase I need to write down my feelings and all and then I sleep for the second time today but not without thinking how the school will be tomorrow. I hope I go unnoticed through out my stay there but I've read books where they say this but the girl gets noticed on the first day so I prayed the opposite which was 'May I get noticed' who knows? I might get the opposite too.
