"Coming!" Mya yelled to her mother. "You're going to miss the bus, Mya!" exclaimed her mom. Mya flew down the stairs and grabbed her lunch. "See you after school, mom." "Okay sweetie, have fun!" said Mya's mom as Mya ran down the block to the bus stop.
The bus had just pulled up when she arrived at the bus stop. She got on and took a vacant seat in the front. The students behind her were making an incredible amount of noise for so early in the morning. By the time the bus pulled up to Lake Green High, Mya had a headache. She sprinted down the steps of the bus and to the front office.
As she walked in, she saw a boy arguing with an administrator. "If you send my report card to my parents, my dad will beat me!" Said the boy. "I'm sure he'll understand, you only have one 'C'!". "You don't know my dad! please just give it to me now!" "I can't, but if you want me to talk to your father, I can." The boy looked truly terrified and Mya shuddered at the thought if what his father might have done to him in the past. "No, I'll be fine" the boy said to the administrator. He ran out of the office, almost running into Mya on his way out.
Sighing, the administrator turned to Mya. "Sorry about that." "It's fine." Mya said. "Mya, right?" "Yeah, I'm Mya Alice. I used to be homeschooled but my mom had to start working more. "Oh, then welcome to Lake Green High!" "Thanks, I'm really excited to have classes with people instead of by myself." "Well, here's your schedule and a map of the school." "thank you." and Mya headed off to first period.
