In this world there is a lot of things we don't know but we still believe it, we don't see it but feel it  in our hearts.

"Pearl ! Stop staring at the window and come eat your breakfast. You don't want to be late for your first day" My mum shouted from down stairs.

Today is my first day in my new school, I'm really nervous that's why I was staring at the marvelous blue sky with the cotton like clouds, it really helps me relax and put my worries away. Well at least until my mum interrupted my session with her hight pitched voice.

Going down the stairs, my nose recognized a familiar smell: coffee.

I rushed to the kitchen and crabbed my cup of hot Brazilian coffee and a toast with peanut butter. I mushed my food quickly and drank my cup of hot delicious coffee.

Mum was waiting for me in her Audi and she was growing impatient so I had better hurry or else I'll be hearing en endless speech about how I don't organize my schedule and how she's gonna be late all because of me.

On my way out I looked at the mirror for the last time, and like always I was the average girl with creepy green eyes and dark hair. I was wearing my favorite dark blue jacket and my best boot-cut trousers in the hope of making some friends and giving a good first impression.

Oh the sky, the beautiful wide blue sky.

I was stock daydreaming from the window on my left, while my mum was blabbing about work and her coworker Elisa that get in the way of her success. Mom works in a books publishing company as a managing editor, boring right.

The school was getting nearer and nearer and so my heart was beating faster and faster, tons of ideas came to my mind: what if I screw it all by saying something embarrassing, or what if I don't make any friends or even worst get lost in the school building.
Oh god I hope I make it to the class safely.

"Don't worry everything's gonna be fine" my mum said in the softest voice she could ever do.

Well I guess my worries were obvious on my face for mum to remark them.

I hugged her and she hugged me back , taking my backpack i rushed out of the car to my new destiny.

Step by step I got closer to the gates that will change my live.
