Kayla sat on the bench and waited for the Long Island Railroad to Manhattan,where she goes to school. First day of school at The LaGuardia Performing Arts Highschool, school for dance, music,drama,and theater. Kayla was scrolling through her Instagram feed wondering what to post. The operator spoke,"The train to Penn Station is operating on time." Kayla got up and looked around before walking towards the platform to wait for the train to stop. When the train finally stopped she got in, looked around the train before finding somewhere to seat. Two girs where seating on both and there was one more left. "Can I seat here?"she ask kindly.
"Sure"said one of the girls.
"Thanks! I'm Kayla by the way."
"I'm Mariana and this is my friend Adiva."said the blonde girl pointing to the girl with the hijab. The girls had started talking. They spoke about where they going, NYC, the weather, music, tv shows,and more until they got to Penn Station. They walked out together and turns out and exchanged contact informations before going they're separate ways. LaGuardia is all the way by The Lincoln Center which is a 30 minute walk from Penn Station. Kayla finally reached her new school, the school she has always wanted to go to. She took a deep breath be going in the building.
She took out her ID and showed it to the security guard, then she went up the stairs to the main office to get her schedule.
"Hello, I'm here to get my schedule."
"Oh hi Kayla, hold on just a second,I'm getting your schedule and your guide to help you through the school."said the secretary.
After a few minutes the secretary came back with a boy who seems to be a junior and Kayla's schedule.
"Okay Kayla this is Zach he is your guide and he's going to help you get through the school and here's your schedule. Your locker is N30678 and your code is at the top of the paper. It's 7:30 classes don't start till 8:50 so you have enough to get yourself together and take deep breaths. I know going to a new school is nerve-racking. Have a good day Kayla and Zach show her to her other guides aswell."
"Yes Mrs.Newly I will."said Zach. Zach looked at Kayla and gestered to the door before they walk out.
"You're excited, Kayla?"
"Yeah, but a little nervous cause I'm really shy and awkward."
"Aww it's okay, by the end of this week you'll have a ton of friends. We are all a big family at this school because we are here for the same reasons."
Kayla smiled at that thought. She took out her schedule to check where her locker is.
"So... where'd you go to Middle School?" Zach asked.
"Roosevelt Field Middle School."
"Oh I've heard of that school."
"Really?"
"Yeah"
Zach helped Kayla up the stairs but that didn't stop Kayla to get her heels get stuck in someone's string bag and making her fall back down the stairs. Everyone around Kayla laughed and Kayla joined in. Zach walked down to help Kayla up.
"You're okay?"
"My knee hurts but other than that I'm fine," Kayla smiled.
"You saw the girl that fell down the stairs? She's so cute,"Kayla heard someone say.
"Yeah I know right? Is she a new student? I never saw her last year."someone else replied.
"See you're already entertaining and pleasure to look at on your first day of school. Do you have a little more confidence now?"said Zach.
"Yeah, but I'm still really awkward Zach"said Kayla.
"How did you get in this school Kayla? If you where able to nail that audition, you'll be able to get through the school year."said Zach.
Kayla thought about what Zach said for awhile. He was right.
"Besides that outfit is really cute on you."Zach said.
"Thanks!"said Kayla looking down at her outfit.
