Chapter 2: Where is the damn office?

I woke up and it looked too dark outside so I turned towards my alarm clock which was pretty cool since it flashed different bright colors and you could even download a song and it played when the alarm went off, it was a gift from my god-father.  I looked at the clock and it read 5:22 am, what the hell am I doing up so early?, I thought*.  I laid there just thinking, trying to get some sleep but failing miserably, I am so going to feel the lack of sleep at school*.  I’ve only slept like 4 hours thanks to dad who made me help them unpack the whole living room set;  no and hear this, when he looked at the clock and it read 12:55am he was acting very surprised and started saying very exasperated may I add, ‘Why aren’t you in bed, Katherine, you know you have school tomorrow?!’.  Did I mention that he was scolding me as if I was a five year old who got caught eating candies before dinner?

I kept tossing and turning trying to get just five more minutes of sleep, and decided to just wake the hell up at about 6:45am, I discovered yesterday that school was just about 5 minutes from my home, that is if you go on car of course, and needless to say I was going to start waking up later, was the point of rushing if it’s just 5 minutes away.  Getting up, I took  a towel and headed for the shower before Chirs got to it and locked himself in it for twenty minutes.  How long can it take for a ten year old to take a bath?

 I looked at myself in the bathroom mirror and my eyes almost got out of their sockets.  Dear Lord, I must have like eight rats living in my hair, it was horrendous and I don’t even want to talk about the dark circles under my eyes.  If I went to the forest and encountered wild animals I could pose as a raccoon’s cousin.  I washed my hair just so I wouldn’t have to do any hairstyle; I was lucky that my hair fell into natural waves without me having to do anything to it.  There was a strange habit that abided in me since long ago; I dressed according to how I felt.  You will never see me in bright happy clothes if I was feeling down.  I wonder who I got that from; maybe the Wicked Witch from the West threw a spell on me.  Since I was feeling tired, I decided to wear some black skinny jeans with this grey fade away graphic tee that had one of the Star Wars dude in it and it said under that, ‘Support Our Troops’.  For shoes, I picked out some high ankle boot look alike, ones that I loved since the moment I bought them.

Picking up a navy blue hoodie I walked downstairs to eat a bowl of cereal, which is what I mostly eat in the mornings, you know unless someone else cooks; I’m too lazy to cook in the mornings.  I was quite nervous I’m not gonna lie, I wonder if I’ll get to see Jess today. Dads bounded down the stairs with an excited grin on his face making me get a little freaked out. “What you smiling about?”

“Well honey it’s your first day of school, and my new job, how wouldn’t I be excited?”

“Oh thank God! I thought you had gotten something yesterday, if you know what I mean! And daaaad it’s not like I’m going to kindergarden, c’mon it’s just high school.”

“Katherine!”, he yelled with a surprised expression on his face.

“What?”, I tried to put on my most innocent face.

“Since when do you use that ‘he got something’, I’m pretty sure I didn’t teach you that”. Ohhh so that’s what this is about, poor guy.

“You’d be surprised of the things we learned at school, besides I’m sixteen, believe me I’ve known that term a long time ago.”, I said with a grin coming on my face, he really had no clue.
