Ok! I opened my eyes. I was on a piece of wood. Wow, who sleeps on wood?! I went out to the closest mirror.
Not surprised at all! Melina! She was the only girl who came with the same clothes everyday.
I opened the lights to take a look at her house.
Ok. It seemed to me more like a horse stable. It was one bedroom, a kitchen and a really small bathroom I coulda sworn it was made by mistake!
She, her parents and her bigger brother shared one small room. Her parents woke up.
" Good morning sweetheart! " told me her dad.
" Umm... Good morning! " I replied.
Then her brother rolled on the piece of wood he was sleeping on and came up to me.
" sup? " he said.
" Umm.... Can I ask you a question?! " I said " Do I have a phone? I really need to make phone call! " I wasn't planning on staying in this barn for the day.
" np! " he said " mum said you have to get an A* on today's exam so you can buy a small Nokia! "
Nokia?! Exam?! Today?!
I really miss my iPhone!
I went to eat breakfast in the kitchen. It was a small cheese sandwich and a cup of milk.
" Quickly finish it up and get ready for school. You don't wanna be late for your science exam " told me her mother.
At school, being Melina, I was sitting behind my own self, Linda. I had one more science lesson and then the exam.
Linda turned around to me " Hey Nerdina, I imagine you chopped you're nails while studying yesterday for the exam the same way that goth girl chopped her nails in the movie! "
I did just like Melina always does; cover my face with my curly brown hair. It hurt!
" As you know " said said Miss Tina " All birds have beautiful and colourful feathers, red, green, blue..... "
We sat in the exam hall. It was the first time my heart beats so fast for a stupid exam. I felt sorry for the real Nerdina who doesn't even have a Nokia!
For the first time, I felt like helping people out in their lives. I wanted to get an A* in this exam and bring happiness to the poor girl's heart!
I started solving. I solved two-third of the exam and stopped at this question:
" Can bluebirds see the colour blue? "
I once saw a funny fact on TV saying that being named bluebirds, they can't see the colour blue.
But seriously.... What is the use of the blue feathers? All I ever know is that feathers are used to attract mates, so if they can't even SEE the blue colour then there's totally no use of the feathers! I guess all birds can see blue!
I scribbled down my answer.
Two hours after the exam, the teacher handed us our checked papers. I couldn't breath!
No.... What if I don't get the A*?
I took a deep breath and looked at my paper.
" Yes! " I yelled " I did it! Omg I did it! "
Everybody turned around and looked at me.
I guess I was too happy to bother about them!
I returned home and ran up to Melina's mum. " Look! I got an A*! " I shouted.
" Great honey, I knew you could do it so I bought you the phone yesterday! Here, open the box!
I was expecting an old Nokia with a rotten small screen... But I found an iPhone!
After all, I couldn't believe I'd make Melina happy for the rest of her life!!
I chew one of the sweets and went to bed.
