jennas pov
i parked my car into the parking lot and took the keys out of the ignition. i fell back onto the seat while closing my eyes, already frustrated and defeated. today, i was starting at a completely new school. in the middle of november, and in a totally different state.
i lived in california for a while, but now i live in massachusetts, for various reasons. i really didn't want to be here, i would honestly rather be any where else...but i can't cause i'm only a sophmore and i don't want to just abandon my mom like that. so i guess i'll just suck it up.
i climbed out of my car and straightened out my plaid skirt. oh yeah and i forgot to mention that we have to wear uniforms at this school...UNIFORMS! someone please send help cause this is going to be a rough year for your girl.
i walked into the silent school and scooted my way into what looked like the main office. it was about 7:45 and classes started about 15 minutes ago. i was told to show up a little later so i wasn't to flustered and overwhelmed.
i opened the door to reveal a receptionist and another lady sitting next to her. they both looked in my direction and the receptionist whispered something to the other lady and she walked away. i gave the lady a warm smiled in which she returned to me.
"hi, um i'm the new student here and i am looking for the principal."
" oh yes you must be jenna!" i nodded and smiled
"okay let me call mr.macdonald and he will be right with you!" she exclaimed, dialing a number into the phone.
mr. macdonald is the principals name? alrighty then. i sat myself in a little chair while slinging my backpack around me and onto the floor. after about 5 minutes a mid 40's looking man walked into the little area and scanned the room. his face lit up after we both made eye contact.
"are you jenna?" he asked me
"well yes i am." i said in return
"follow me." he said while motioning me to follow him. i picked my bag off of the floor and slung it around onto my back and walked into a small little office.
this is your school now jenna, better get used to this.
