~Flashback~ _to monday 5th september 2013_

    Mona's p.o.v
It was on an early Monday morning. I laid still on my medium sized bed that was fit for two, as the alarm went off. It was so irritating That I couldn't take. I reached out for it sluggishly to put it off but unfortunately it fell to the floor. Ouch! Poor thing I thought.I drifted slowly to sleep again. Then and there the noisy clock went off again "argh!!" I groaned my eyes wide open. I couldn't sleep I just kept rolling left and right on my bed until I landed on the floor hitting my butt so hard " ouch! That hurts "I cried " Mona! Time for school! "My mum called from downstairs. " wait! What? " I said to , myself I looked at the clock and it was already 7:30 am " I can't be late"  I blurted _then hurry!_  my conscience spoke.
I managed to raise my body off my bed, walked into my shower room to take a bath and fix up my self. I was in such hurry that I didn't realise that my hair needs blow-drying . Getting to my closet, I picked out my outfit for the first day of school after a long vacation. I wondered what the school looks like anyway _quit thinking woman your late already_ my conscience spoke again bugging me off my silly thoughts. I dried my hair and suddenly the thoughts of my brother came flowing in my mind. Had be been here, he would have Been the one to pick out my clothes.I know it's  kind of weird having a guy pick out my clothes but he's my brother. My one and only. I can't help but miss him terribly.
    My brother's Inigo Monteiro. He's two year older than me. He's tall, light skinned, a little bit huge dark haired, he has a striking blue eyes that made him extremelying cute, plus he has this dimples and chubby cheek making him the perfect brother I had always wished for.
       My sister's Nicky Monteiro. She's the youngest and perhaps the prettiest. She's six, she's mute and she's brunette. She's just the addition I need for a wonderful sister. I guess i'm lucky.
     My mum's Lucia Monteiro. She's cool and basically, she's what refer to as the world coolest mum ever. She's the kind of mother who takes everything we do lightly, And as far as I can remember, my mum never scolded any of us. That's why Inigo and I named her the *Take- a- lot -of- nonsense* kind mother and i'm grateful I have her for a mother. Automatically, she's the world best mum! _what about manually?_ my conscience spoke " yeah whatever" I blurted and grabbed my backpack containing my books,purse and my cell phone and left my room for the dining table for breakfast.
  "Morning mum" I kissed her cheek and that of Nicky's "morning baby" I said intentionally greeting my stepfather last.  " morning dad" I said walking to my chair. " no need it wouldn't change anything anyways" he Said as i quietly sat to have my pancakes. The breakfast was as usual on it's silent mode. Even if you made attempt to talk , your just going to be ignored so it's better if you just shut up and eat. Thats basically how life at the dinning use to be. _Tragic!_ my conscience spoke Absolutely! I thought.... I stood up to leave grabbing an apple from the table before looking back at Nicky " I'll get going now baby ,see you later ok?"I said. She nodded slowly as if to say I shouldn't go. She then kissed me goodbye which I in return kissed her forehead. " bye mum "  I mumbled and left home for school.
  My school was blocks away so sometimes I walk save my allowance, sometimes abby picks me up and most of the time I take a cab.
Jofay college. That's it. It was pretty big. the wall were painted grey, there were gardens and sporting fields. Jofay has it's kindergarten section down to college.  One more thing, i'm a scholar. People call it *great* but to me it's *greats* har har....
    As I reached the entrance gate.I met Abby Anthony Carding, my bestfriend in the whole universe I mean after  my mum.... you know...Abby's been my childhood befriend and ever since we attended the  same school and did almost everything together to the extent we became inseparable. Basically we were like sisters.she's always there whenever I needed her. She's mh guardian angel because at some instant she helps Nicky and I whenever David mistreat mum and locked her up. Abby's a black kid.her mother's from Columbia and her father's a Nigerian. We met at a park in Australia when we went over for vacation. "Mona!!!" She screamed while jumping like a kid who spotted a candy stop. "Hey!!!" I replied attacking her with a hug."how 're you?!" I asked " i'm good like never before" she replied " girl you better have a good explanation on why you don't return my calls I mean not Evend a message?!" She yelled " i'm sorry I misplaced my cell I just got a new one recently" I stated  "oh my sympathies " she mumbled " Abby! You know how much I hate being pitied right?" I shouted hitting her shoulder lightly " oh sorry I must have forgotten" she chuckled " yeah whatever" I said " so how was your holiday?" She asked " well mine was hilarious... can you believe I met someone so hot and cute I call him Mr cutie pie....." she continued " well Abby mine was the complete opposite. I work hours just to earn should be in case my stepfather step on us at least we wouldn't beg on the streets.... you know what? i Really envy you" I stated hurt she just hugged me and everything was alright again. We went to our lockers to pick up some stiff and check our first class for the day. It was Math !I sighed and immediately started feeling dizzy  i hated math i mean who doesn't I thought as we walked to our first core.... the math class.
