Chapter 1

Carina's POV

Light peaked through the baby blue curtains of my room. It slowly made it's way to my eyelids and as it did, my eyes cracked open.

"Ugh. Morning already?" I thought as I buried myself into my pillow, refusing to get up from the comfort of my bed.

As I continued to enjoy the fluffiness of my bed, a knock suddenly interrupted my thoughts.

"Carina! Get up already! You're gonna be late for school!" My mother yelled through the door.

"Yes mom! I'm up!" I answered back and got up from my bed.

I slipped on my slippers and skipped to my bathroom. I placed my towel on the sink and stepped out of my clothes. Turning the knob on the shower, a thousand thoughts went through my head.

'So it's my senior year huh? '

'I wonder how things will be at school?'

'Are there any cute guys?'

'How will this year end? How will it begin?'

My cloud of thoughts were interrupted by a knock.

"Carina! Are you done yet?" The commanding voice of my mother said through the door.

"Yeah,in a second mom!" I shouted through the shower curtain.

I quickly made my way out the bathroom, changed into my uniform, dried my hair and brushed it well.

Hehehe I really don't like tying my hair up in the morning. It's not that messy since I kinda have this really REALLY straight hair that a lot of my classmates are vying for but i would give anything for my hair to be curly. Even if it's a little bit.

Okay i'm babbling again so let's get back to the story.

I grabbed my phone, earphones, bag and went downstairs.

I sat down at the table and ate my breakfast.

What?

Oh yeah that. No "Good morning".

Well, let's just the people in this house (including me) are not morning persons. So we usually talk after breakfast.

I eat fast cause I really REALLY don't like being late especially when it's the first day of school.

I went back upstairs quickly to brush my teeth and fix my hair.

"Carina! Your ride's here!" my mom called out.

"Okay, I'm coming mom!" i replied as i came down the stairs.

My mom kissed my cheek and told me to have a good day. And with that I went out of my house and it's off to school for me!

10 minutes later..

After taking a jeepney, I finally reached my destination.

Ah.

There it was,my beloved school.

My breath became heavier with every step I took. I don't know why but I'm always nervous on the first day of school.

As I reached the gate, I prepared myself for the normal day I was gonna have.

Hopefully.
