"Emilia wake up"

I heard a faint sound, I could tell my mom was shouting from the kitchen which was far from my room, cause her voice wasn't loud.

I opened my eyes slightly and looked around my room searching for the clock.

Where did I put it

My parent weren't that rich, we were just a middle family who got whatever we need not want. But I guess I was really brilliant so I got a scholarship to one of the richest and best school in the country.


I looked around again slightly rolling my eyes and I figured out that everywhere was still a little bit dark,I finally found the clock, I looked at it on the wall and it read 6.05am.

My mom never woke me up this early unless it was the first day of school,I made a heavy groan .
I hated first day of school, it was always frustrating and annoying, not only was it the first day of school, it was also my first day at a new school.
I got a scholarship to study at the school. I didn't really see it as a good thing cause, being a poor student at a rich man school was weird for me.

How will the students see my, what was I thinking when I applied for the scholarship. But it too late now.

"Emilia"

I heard another shout and it sounded closer, OMG , my mom must be close, she mustn't find me still on my bed, I jumped out of my bed immediately, which made my bed make a little crack sound, my parent couldn't afford me a new bed, it was quite old.

I ran over to the bathroom and locked the door so my Mom would think I was bathing. I heard my mom's voice again, it seemed really close, then the door of my room opened slowly ,my mom walks in, she calls out again
"Emilia"

"mom am in the bathroom". I answered.

"when you are done come down for breakfast and hurry up I don't want you to be late for your first day at school".

I came out of the bathroom after my mom had left, went to my wardrobe, I took what I needed for the day, removed my pyjamas and ran straight to the bathroom to have my bathe.

I came out a few minute later, put on my uniform, I packed my hair up forming a donut at the end. I looked at the mirror I was quite pretty, very pretty.

I then took my school bag, put some books and some other school essentials. Took my bag and ran downstairs for breakfast, I wasn't really happy, but I had choice, it was school.

I got to the kitchen and sighted my mom.
" Mom good morning", I said

"Have your food and hurry up you are late".

I got outside the house, I turned my around looking at both side of the street, to see if anyone was out, with no one at sight, I started my journey to school. I made it to the bus stop, waited until my bus arrived, I entered and took a seat my the window.

The bus drove for 20 minutes before getting to my destination. I walked a little, then my eyes came upon a huge place, it was beautiful, I lost sense of what I was doing, my whole attention on the school building with glass, it was magnificent, then I felt something touch my back, I looked, and then I heard.


"welcome to Stanford high school miss Philips".
