Zafira's Point of view

Today is the day. I am finally graduating. Holy shit!
After all these years, here I am.
I currently just woke up and I have been talking to myself cause I still can't believe I made it through high school!
One word to describe school life? A roller coaster ride! Oh wait that's three words. Well never mind.
I didn't have the best kinda a friends through out my school life but the people who are still by me, I am glad they are. And school romance? Well I never got to experience that. I just never found the right guy. Heck, I was never into dating. I always found it a waste of time. I mean, what's the point of dating when you are gonna eventually break up?

I quickly texted my friends in our messenger group and showed them the gown that I was gonna wear for the graduation ceremony. They loved it! I am so excited!

But what makes me more excited is that I am gonna go to NEW YORK next month. I got into an art and designing university over there and my dreams were about to come true. I can't wait!

Okay enough talking to myself! I need to go to the salon. "Oh there you are! Come fast I made your fav breakfast". Alu bhaji (patoto fries) and paratha (bread)! See my mom, is a very kind woman. She is caring and she supported me in many things. But she was rooted to our culture and religion where as I was the complete different. We often had misunderstandings but guess what? She never left my side.

My two brothers and Baba (dad) were already having their breakfast. I joined them and started eating my breakfast. After I finished, my dad dropped me off at the salon nearby. "Don't do anything crazy like you did before with your hair" Baba warned me then he laughed. He was strict but a sweetheart.

"Okay I will try..." I whispered to myself. Nah I am not gonna do anything crazy but little transformation is necessary. Have I mentioned that I have very long hair? My hair was under my butt. It was black but it was too plain. I got a little trim from the end and got a black-brown ombré with blonde ends. The new hairstyle suited me.

I checked myself in the mirror. It was a new me.
