We had been driving for about an hour which felt like it had been a year. My father drove slower like he was riding a bicycle and my mother sat next to him. While I'm in the backseat, my complexion is fair with blue eyes and thin pink lips thanks to my mom. I have long brown hair which I usually curled behind my ear. My gaze are outside of the window, silently watching falling snow, trees and all roadside things when my father asked "Are you ok Alice? "
" Yes, dad.... almost,"
"Come on honey, it's a famous college in New York, you're going to love it," he replied with amusement.
" No one knows about it, they have never heard its name before, like it doesn't exist, still you guys are insisting me to go there. Why dad?" after a pause I say again, this time louder than before "It sucks me" I don't want to go there. That place is shit. I want my friends back who are now far away from me. It's like going to jail, why don't they understand that...... it's frustrating me. If there is a possibility to escape I definitely jumped from the car and run away as far as possible.
My father is watching me through the rear mirror, a little tensed and after a deep breath he said " Dear... we are doing which is good for you, just trust us"
My mother silently listened to our conversation and then turn back from her seat towards me and says " Aly... we love you dear, we are your parents, we always want to see you happy".
I turned away from her.
"I am your mother dear, trust us," she says in low voice and trying to meet my gaze.
"You are not my mother, so don't pretend that" I paused, my voice flattered, turning my face away from her "she died long ago"
"Alice !" He yells giving me a warning look.
"Sorry dad" I frowned but didn't look at her.
"This is not the way of talking to your mom," dad said, "She is only trying to make you happy".
I didn't reply, rolled my eyes and put headphones in my ears.
I never saw my real mother. I lost her in an accident when I was 2 years but still, I loved her. I want her back if it's possible. I saw her only in the picture which l always keeps to myself wherever I go. I loved my father too, but I never used to speak to my stepmom. I just don't like her, maybe because she was trying to take mother's place. When the first time dad took her home after marriage
I didn't eat for a week. I was upset as hell. I thought we used to be a happy family, only me and dad. Then why did he take another one inside the house?~~~~~~~~~
After twenty minutes we reached there, a big old black gate, 'Silver Divine University' written on top of it, I turned my gaze upward "Holy shit!"
"Here we are, hope you discover yourself, Alice," dad told me.
After dropping me they left. And I'm still watching this old building in front of me which looks like some old palace. It was an old white building with white marvel, wooden door and windows, a huge bell was hanging over the ceiling in front of the entrance door. Alice moved forward and entered this big palace like university having the reception on the left side while the second floor is crowded with students, they glanced at me when I entered the hallway.
"Why all are watching me like I am an alien or something " I murmured in a low voice so no one could hear me.
I reached the reception.
"Welcome to Silver Divine University Miss Alice Stewart," the receptionist said, he was of average height, old wrinkled face with no expression.
"Thank you" I replied. How does he even know my name? Maybe he knew that a new student is coming which is only me. Of course who else wants to join this shit except me. Thanks to my parents.
