My boots mush in the ground as I walk to school.
Well my new school.

When I arrive at the door I try not to vomit. I'm gonna be the loser agin. That girl nobody talks to. The girl that keeps to herself but messes everything up. I could go on but to sum it up I'm a disaster waiting to happen.
And so I open the door and I feel my chest tighten. "Keep your head down." I whisper to myself.

"it's not that hard" Mrs. I have no idea says "Beatrice?"
"Yeah?"
"What's your combo?"
I stare down at my hands
"Well?"
I can't think strait or sit in a chair for 1 minute without going nuts but I can't let anyone know that. So I say nothing my brain takes in what it can and I take in less. That's what a life like mine dose to you.
I pick at the paint on my locker and shrug.
"I just sai-"
"Save it for someone who cares" I say
and put the three numbers in. It opens and she laughs.
"You think you can have this attitude do you?" she says and tosses me my binder "You can head to 212 young lady." she hands me a detention slip.
"Bitch" someone says form behind me. A girl with dark skin and dark hair "Your new? I can bring you to 212 after all I'll proudly be sent there in a few minutes" she laughs
"Thanks?" I say

"This is... what's your name?" she says
What is my name? I'm pretty sure the name Beatrice could get me beat up here.
"Tris"
"Tris" she shouts "You hurt her and I'll beat you up."
A kid also with dark skin laughs "Shut up Uriah did you tell your friends how you really got that black eye?"
Black eye? I stair at him closely and now I can see it it's really the same color as his skin though.
"We good?" she says as a really old lady walks in
"Hunny" she says to me "Welcome to... social studies I'm mrs.karla."
Social Studies?
"Take a seat please" she limps over to her desk.
There's only one seat left and I'm so confused and so I make my way to the back where the chair and study all the words on the desk.
"This isn't social studies you know?" A boy says as the bell rings.
