Her Mistakes

Prologue

I was unkindly jolted by the resonating screech of my alarm clock. Lying face down on the mattress and me being in my inattentive state, I recklessly swung my arms around; resulting in the toppling of my alarm clock, which effectively stopped it's incessant ringing, along with a few other things.

Snuggling further into my pillow, I let fatigue overwhelm me, dragging me into a deep slumber.

Heat prickled my skin and the sensation grew warmer as I became more aware of it.

Fluttering my eyelids, I found that the source of heat was the ray of sun that shone through the gaps of my drawn curtains.

'Isn't it too early to be this bright?'

Suddenly, something clicked in my brain.

'It is too early to be this bright! Right?'

I bolted out of bed and frantically searched for my alarm clock. I was in such a panic that I tangled my feet in the sheets and toppled off of the bed, landing right in front of my clock. My eyes widened at the sight of the time.

"Shit, shit, shit!"

I quickly scrambled off the floor and dashed into the bathroom bringing along my necessities.

After cleaning up, I grabbed my school bag, ran down the stairs and dashed to the garage. Dashing to my red Toyota, I grabbed its handles only to remember that it was locked. I quickly patted my pockets in search of my keys and to my dismay, I have left it at the kitchen counter.

Sprinting back into the house I located my keys along with a note and a packed sandwich.

Here is your lunch baby! Enjoy your first day of school, I have to go back to the hospital. Don't be late!

x Mom

I silently thanked my mom for her angelic heart and grimaced at the fact that I was late.

"Shit, I'm late!"

With the sudden realization, I sprinted to the garage and unlocked my Toyota. Placing the keys in the ignition I was ready to speed off but the rattling of the engine and burst of smokes from the exhaust made me think otherwise.

"No, no, no!" I exasperated.

I repeatedly banged my head at the steering wheel and silently cursing my luck.

With a sigh of frustration, I grabbed my bag from the shotgun and jogged to the nearest bus stop.

Tapping my foot impatiently, I heaved a sigh of release as my bus turned around the corner.

As soon as the bus had opened it's doors I jumped on and paid the fare thinking as if that would've miraculously made me less late than I already am.

Stalking to the back of the bus, I slouched in my seat and began replaying the scenes in my head.

I breathed out roughly and looked out the window.

Out of all the days, why did it have to be today that I had to have to worst of luck?

I hopped off the bus as soon as it reached my stop and I dashed straight into the main building an administrators office.

The schoolyard was empty except for the janitor sweeping the dead leaves off of the floor.

Running down the hall pass the lockers following the direction to the administrator's office, I pushed the door and quickly rambled on an apology the lady sitting at the front desk.

"I'm so sorry I'm late! I swear I set up my alarm but I don't know why I didn't wake up! And when I tried to start the engi-" I was abruptly interrupted my a dull voice.

"Name?" I soon realised that it was the lady at the front desk. Her tight bun and librarian glasses topped off her already icy appearance and attitude.

I hadn't even realised I was on my tippy toes until I felt my heel touch the ground.

"I'm Jacqueline Maxine Anderson, the transferee," I muttered.

She typed something into the computer that was placed in front of her, the sound of something being printed resonated the room and a silence fell over us.

"Here, these are your classes; this is your locker number and this is they key. Do not lose it, a fee will have to be paid if you lose it. Here is the school map and it shows where you have to go to attend each class." She explained briefly.

I nodded my head in a jerky fashion, turned around and briskly walked towards the door.

"Oh and Ms.Jacqueline," I halted in my steps and looked over my shoulder.

"Welcome to William High."
