Alya walked up her new school, Weaks Academy High School. She skimmed over her class schedule. She had Mr. Winsterlin: Math 1st period. She had no idea what to expect, but she was willing to do anything to make some friends and get along with the teachers. First she looked for her locker, locker 231. The combination to it was easy to remember. It was 1-05-57. Once she found her locker and opened it, she found a letter sitting on the top shelf.
She placed all her things into the locker and looked at the letter. The letter read; Beware for this locker is cursed, beware before your mother is sethursed. The term "sethursed" meant dead, according to the bottom of the page. Alya thought it was a way of rhyming the two words together, even though sethursed isn't a real word. She thought of this letter as a prank, but kept it to herself.
On her way to Math Class, Alya met this girl who was having trouble opening her locker. After helping the girl, she asked for her name. The girl was a bit shy, but she confidently said," My name is Emily." She smiled after that so big, Alya had to burst out a small giggle. "Cool name, mine's Alya." She responded with a sense of humor. "I have a feeling we are going to best friends" They said simultaneously. They both smiled at each other and looked at each other's schedules. They had all the same classes, and they both looked at each other. They smiled and skipped down to Mr. Winsterlin's class. They sat next to each other and both had a great first day of school. If only days like that stayed, maybe life would be more enjoyable. I guess not every day is a fairy tale.
