After we landed in NY city , we had to take a cab to the office . I thought we'd be travelling in limo or bulletproof cars something because you know , 'we are related to the mafias' .But that doesn't appear to be true . We , more like 'I' visited the headquarter and even managed to get lost . wow , i really am something.
And then we headed to an apartment , which happens to be my new home, Juvenile told me that , at all circumstances I must stick with my team .So, here I am living with Jason, Samantha and Ryan.
The apartment had amazing interior decor , it gave a modern royal vibe , you know.
"Sheph, he's Ryan . And Ryan , she's the new trainee." Jason introduces . I stare at the slightly tanned 6"1 guy with green eyes and a dimple in awe , He's adorable and hot at the same time.
" Rynold Perrie, but just call me Ryan " he hands out his hand
"I'm Shephora Woodley "
We shake hands and have a conversation , which was more about knowing each other. As I adored the handsome guy in front of me ; from the corner of my eye , I kept on looking at Jason . No particular reason.

"Tomorrow will be your first day in school, you can borrow my clothes if you didn't pack much. " Samantha offers
"oh.. I guess I'll be fine " i say hesitantly
" okay , look ! All I found in your suitcase were 2 outfits , out of which , one is your pajamas and one that you're wearing now , it's really dirty . " she rolls her eyes .
"Woah " i say in amazement . And she smiles back .It was nice to have her watch my back.
It wasn't a good idea of packing very few clothes . Additionally, since my room wasn't customized properly I should ask for help.
"Hey , and can you help me out with the things in my room"
"Okay honey , we'll go to the mall tomorrow to buy everything you need"
" Oh I love you so much , thank you"
"Shut up and let's go!" she says cheerfully .

So, after hunting in her closet for one and half hour , I finally found clothes that I could wear tomorrow . Now , now ! It's not easy being a girl, you see.
We four are living in the same flat which means I'll have to see their faces everyday for the rest of my life, maybe not , but I'm just trying to exaggerate . This is gonna be interesting anyway
Okay I should be sleeping now!! uhh go to sleep Shephora ! now! , will you?!
I roll on my 'double spring mattress' bed holding my cell phone above my face . lol.
I won't be able to wake up early tomorrow if I watch another episode of F.R.I.E.N.D.S .
At least I'm not missing my parents or my house or my room or the scent of the my bedsheets....(That was irony ). I've cried for 2 hours straight because I missed them...
And after Samantha told me that my parents were informed that i was dead due to my presence in an unfortunate accident , it just didn't feel ' alive' ,'free' or 'unstoppable' anymore, my body became numb and I couldn't think for a moment but now my heart feels heavy for I'm unsure if I feel guilty for making them go through this or if I regret running away or maybe both....
I take in a deep breath and step outside my room into the balcony and inhale and exhale aloud dramatically.
"Aren't you asleep? "
That voice scared the shit out of me to an extent where I choked on my breath"
