What's better than to start a day off with paperwork? Everything. Believe me, I wish I was in middle school right now. The alarm went off at about six in the morning.
If I ever have a dog, I would name him Haru, which mean spring, in Japanese. Mia -my BFF- and I agree on the name when we were younger. She leaves New York to go to Stanford.
I woke up and make some fried egg and avocado toast. After that, I went into the bathroom and do my makeup. Now to the best part of the day.
"Good morning," I said to my neighbor, closing the door behind me. It was about 55 degree outside.
"Good morning Savvy, how are you doing?" Mrs. Robertson smiled at me. She was a teacher at the school next by. She retired when I finished 8th grade.
"I'm great, how about you?" I smiled at her. Since she has no children, she treated me like her own daughter.
"I'm fine, thanks for asking." She went back to raking her yard, humming a song I don't know.
I check the mailbox every day, usually, someone from Diamondstone would send me stuff to work on. But there is a strange package today. The box was covered from purple to pink sparkly paint. This is definitely a prank from those kids I saw yesterday, I thought.
I gather all my stuff and went inside. I opened the sparkly pink and purple-ish box first. Why? Because I remembered when I was young, Mia and I used to put fake letters on Mrs. Robertson's class. Most of the time, the letter goes like this: Hi Mrs. Roberston, my name is Savia Rudolph, and then she said something stupid. Once, she asked the class who Savia Rudolph was, and we burst out laughing.
Did we get in trouble? No. Mrs. Robertson even gave us an award for it. Sadly, my dad wasn't that happy and gave me a lecture on how to behave like a proper young lady. I laughed at the memory.
Inside the box was an old journal and a hardcover book. What kind of prank is this? The journal was old, probably from the 80s. I opened it and read the inside.
On the front page of the journal wrote neat writing. Belong to Vy Phan. I started. I've heard of this name before, and I know who it belongs to.
My mom.
