I stared at my reflection, if you could even call it that. My face which was once filled with joy and happiness was now pale and void of all emotion. My dull and emotionless eyes stared right back at me as if it hadn’t sparkled or shined before. My brown hair hung in loose curls down to my waist as if it hadn’t seen the hairdresser in years – which is true considering that I wouldn’t step foot into the hairdresser. It used to be me and my mother’s thing.

Sighing quietly to myself, I picked my hairbrush up from my dressing table and began brushing it again for the fifth time that morning. “Aliya!! Hurry up or we’ll be late for on our first day at Maleburry High” my brother Chase yelled from downstairs.

Just as I was about to shout why do you even bother being on time ‘cuz as far as I remember the longest we’ve ever spent at a school is two months, so we might as well be late. I remembered my promise to my mother; I reluctantly placed my hairbrush back down and glanced up at the clock on my wall. It read 7:00, we still had another hour and a half before school began, but Chase being Chase wanted to make a good first impression on the teachers and students. I slipped my favourite pair of purple sneakers on before grabbing my black leather jacket from the chair beside my bed. I took off down the stairs before slowing my pace down to a trot and entering the kitchen.

“Oh. There you are Aliya! I was getting worried. I thought you were coming down with the flu or something. Anyways, now that your here and not in the bathroom puking, Good morning" rambled Maisie, my new foster mother.

It was a wonder she took both me and my brother in, despite us both being teenagers and me being expelled from every school I attended for different reasons. From throwing bricks at classroom windows and strolling into class whenever I felt like, to swearing at teachers and getting into fights.

Plastering a fake smile onto my face, I replied as cheerfully as I could, "Good morning Maisie", 

"How did you sleep last night, no nightmares or anything - right?" she questioned, looking concerned and mother-like. This thought caused me to stumble slightly as I hadn't ever thought of someone as motherly- even my own mother except then last 10 minutes of her life. When she had told me not to trust anyone quickly and not get too close either.

Uh- oh, she's not motherly, she's just doing this for the money, and I agreed because I had had enough of the care home and the children. As I zoned back in, I realised that Maisie was still waiting for an answer and that she as well as Chase, were looking at me expectantly.

"Oh, I'm so sorry, I guess I kinda spaced out. What was your question again?" I asked, a blush creeping onto my cheeks as I looked down in embarrassment .

"Never mind, do you want breakfast then sweetie," she asked, eyeing me suspiciously, as if I would explode any second if she said one thing wrong. 

"No thanks, I'll just have a cereal bar if that's ok with you" I replied with a smile that I hoped look reassuring and not a grimace. 

"Sure, whatever you want, you still have another hour and a half before school starts. I'm gonna run off to the hospital as my shift is starting soon, so see you at 5. You both like Chinese right?" she questioned.

We both nodded meekly at her random topic change.

"Good, we'll have that for supper then. Oh and Chase, please do me a favour and keep Aliya out of trouble. I want you guys to stay with me for as long as possible. I'll tell you guys once we get closer. Otherwise, you might run off before we get to learn each other.

Me and Chase stared after her long after she left.

"God, she's so weird, it's starting to freak me out and we only know her for like three days. is it weird that that for some reason she reminds me of mum. The last few minutes we had with her, I mean. She seemed so sweet and caring, and now it's like Maisie's reminding me of her. Freaky....... right?"

"Aliya, remember what mum told you-" he started before I cut him off.

"Not to trust anyone quickly, blah blah blah." I finished for him with a sigh.

"Not that I haven't heard that from you 1,899,995 times and thought it double the amount." I continued on.

"Aliya, please stop! We'll talk about this later after school, before Maisie gets back, ok." he continued without letting me speak "Right now we are going to be late if we don't leave for school. So come on. 

As we got into the car, Chase looked up at me pleadingly " you're going to behave at this school right?

"Until we know for certain whether she's mums long lost sister Maisie or not. If she is then I'll remain as good as angel, if not, then I'll do the next possible thing to get excluded from Maleburry high. Deal" I bargained

"Oh and if some lunatics starts then I won't guarantee that I'll hold back." I added on as an afterthought.

"No shit, Sherlock, it's not like I didn't know that" he answered sarcastically, shaking his head he started the car and began the quick journey to Maleburry High.

I let out a deep sigh as I looked out the window, already regretting my decision.
