I feel so nervous. Why? Because I have been transferred to another school. I'm going to miss my old school. My family and I just moved from Las Vegas, Nevada to New York just to get away from my arch enemy, Jude Vincent Bandojo.

I pushed the door for me to get inside. The hallways were packed! Just like my seventh grade years. This is going to be a long year. I'll get over it. Soon, I hope.

The name of the school I'm attending is Mount Olympus Academy (MOA for short). I wonder why they named the school like that. But it is beautifully built, actually, and I admire the one who built this.

I threw some "excuse me" and "sorry" to them just to get pass the crowd. I was lucky to get out and now I'm in front of the office.

"Um, good morning," I said nervously. "My name is Thea Penaflorida and I would like to request for my class schedule and locker number," I asked politely.

The administrative assistant gave me a warm smile. After a while, she gave me a paper with my class schedule and my locker number. "Thank you," I said to her, smiling.

When I was going through my locker, I bumped someone who is writing on her diary. "I"m sorry. I didn't mean to-"

"It's okay," she said to me carefully. "Happens all the time." She smiled at me and I smiled back. She picked up her stuff and I helped her.

"Thanks. I've never see you around here. New student?" she asked me and I nodded in response. "I'm Nikki Maxwell. Call me Nikki. And you are?" she introduced herself.

"Well, I'm Thea," I said nervously. Everytime I speak to someone who is a stranger to me, I am very nervous.

"Nice to meet you, Thea. Wait. Let me guess. You're going to your locker to put your stuff away," uttered Nikki.

"Mmm-hmm. Can you accompany me please? I don't know anything around here," I said, feeling grateful.

"I'd love to!" exclaimed Nikki. We walk together to my locker and stowed my things away. "First period: Homeroom," I told myself.

"I've got Homeroom in first period, too," she pipped in. "Shall we walk together to class?"

"Okay," I said to her.

The bell rang, signaling the start of the first period. I shut my locker close behind me. Everyone's scrambling to get to their classes.

"We'd better go," I reminded. Nikki and I walked together to attend our first period.

Hope you like this one!

Sorry for the mistakes I have possibly made.
