chapter four: first day in hell

Don't you just hate it when you realize summer is over and you'll be going back to school. I was currently eating my breakfasy and I can't even explain my mood right now because 1.) It's the day Richard and Maria will be leaving for Europe and 2.) It's the first day in hell. I'm not really sure if I want to punch something right now or smile at random people.

I finished my breakfast in 0.7 seconds and asked Martha, "Should I take the bus or the subway? Which one is faster?"

"Didn't sir Allen gave you a car? Why are you taking a bus or a train for school?" she asked furrowing her brows. I shrugged.

She sighed, "Subway is faster."

I nodded and said thanks.

I was standing infront of the school and thinking should I go inside or ditch? I ran my fingers through my hair to make it messier. Something I usually do if I'm being indecisive. Most of the time, I always wear my hear in a messy way just because I can. I finally decided to go and see how cliché this school is.

I entered and asked where the office was and now I'm sitting inside the principal's office.

"Goodmorning Miss Crystal! Welcome to Easton Knights! We are glad to have you here. I'm Mrs. Carlson." she said while smling.

I smiled back, "I'm lucky to be here." I tried my very hard not to sound a sarcastic bitch.

She took out a file from her drawer and read it. Her eyes widened for a second and turned her attention to me.

"You're the daughter of Richard Allen?" she asked surprised.

"Uh, yes. I believe Richard called here and asked to change my last name to Hernandez and none of the student would know about it."

She looked at me bemused. Probably wondering why I called my father Richard and ask to change my last name.

She cleared her throat and replied, "Yes, he did."

She proceeded to read my file.

"You have an..... interesting file, Ms. Hernandez."

I smirked. I was a smart student but my records weren't exactly squeaky clean. I did got in trouble a few times for vandalism, my demeanor, and such.

"Ms. Hernadez, please know that I won't tolerate this kind of behavior in my school. What you did at your last school, I hope you won't do it here. Here's our manual and map to the school." she said while handing me a small book and a paper that looked like a map.

"You'll get your schedule in the front desk. Have a good first day, Ms Hernandez." she continued.

I nodded and stepped outside her office and went to the front desk to get my schedule. My classes were,

A.P. English

A.P. Math

Biology

Lunch

Music

Gym

Free Period

A.P. Social Studies

I was looking through my schedule when someone knocked me down. We both groaned. I looked at who bumped me and it was a girl. She had a tan complexion and green eyes like mine but lighter.

"Oh my gosh! I'm so sorry! I was rushing because-" she explained but I cut her off.

"It's fine, dude." I said as I stand up and dust the dirt I collected when I was on the floor.
