CHAPTER 1

CLAIRE

"Coming mom!"

Oh my Gosh... Is it just me or I totally passed the exams?! Am I that intelligent?! Who xan believe that I passed the exams for me to study in the school I wanted the most?!

Okay, let me clear this up. It have been two weeks since I have known that I passed. But, duh. Can you blame me for being so excited and not believing it?

Yes, I am now packing my bags to go to the schooland to live in the dormitory for three months for me to be independent.(Mom said that.. Ewww.) But mom said that after sem break, she will be giving me a gift.

Okay..

I really really love gifts. But I dont love college. as in every word that have a connection to it. (Like Thesis. Ugh.) Who even wants that? But I love the school. So.. I STILL dont care!

"Claire, you ready?"

I smiled at mom as an answer to her question.

This is it! I arranged my hair a bit and smelled my yellow happy face-printed shirt. It is so fragrant! Like the scent of my favorite flower, dandelion.

Claire, you must ne blooming at your first day! Dont be ugly!

Okay, I will say something for confirmation that I am ready.

"Uh, yup mom!"

I am running closer and closer to mom. I can hear my heart beating faster and faster.

I ran closer to my mom..

"Slow down you!"

"Sorry mom!"

I think she noticed that I bring soooo many bags..

"Okay, help you with those!"

"Oh.. Thanks you noticed!"

My mom pointed the bags I am holding. Yeah. She must help me. Because these are like 6 sacks of rice.

Why? Because I've brought all of my clothes.

She took  3 of my six bags and helped me to put these inside the car.

It was like 5:30 am when I checked my watch like 3 seconds ago..

I am now inside the car. I sat beside the driver's seat.  The school where I will study is a bit of far from here. So my mom did not waste 4any time.

"Yehey! Please turn on the aircon! Yipee! We're going to Manila! We're going to Manila!"

I said with a sheepish grin.

So cool! First time for long rides!

"Okay, okay. I'll tirn on the airconditioner for you. Dont need to shout, honey. and dont-dont do that! you are like a child! "

She looked at me like I'm crazy.

Sheesh.

I confidently said

"Mom, its not my fault. I'm loke, baby face!"

"Oh gosh, Claire.. You are now in college! This is the first day of YOU being independent!"

My mom said while laughing at me.

Seriously?

"Mom, its just 5:49, and I am 3 hoirs and 49 minutes before being independent!"

Hah! Sarcasm here!

By the way, I am Claire Erica Mejorada Ahnn. I am half Korean and half Filipino. 16 years old. I have a brownish-short hair. Fairer than common filipino girls. Tall, I think. My eyes were  smaller than my mom. I am the Valedictorian of my former school. I can say that I am not that intelligent but I am working hard for my mom. I am the only daughter. That's more difficult.

"Mom, I will just sleep."

"yeah, go on.The school is far from here."

"okay."

I closed my eyes and started to think of beautiful things. That's the way for me to sleep faster.

.....

"Claire anak, we're here."

I heared a voice near me. A soft hand is laying on my cheeks.I can feel the hand of my mom. The first person that I saw when I opened my eyes is my mom.

"Anak you will be late. We are here."

I immediately arranged myself and get out of the car.

"Wow mom! This school is so big! The biggest of all that I have seen!"

What I said was all true.  This school was like a mansion. It has a big gate, a garden from the side of the gate, and I think the school has four buildings-I mean four big buildings! This is the school that I dreamt! So beautiful!

We went inside of the school. I am more amazed when we went inside!

While I was looking around, I saw mom talking to an old lady with expensive-i think- accessories all over her upper body. I think she is the principal.. Yeah, I bet. My mom called me to go to her.

"Claire, this is Madam Elena Bernardo, the principal of this school. say hi."

She looks so elegant. Well, that made me more nervous.

"uh, h-hi! Hi po Madam Bernardo! Nice meeting you po!"

I smiled and looked like a dog but I dont care. I must be good.

"Hello, darling."

She smiled in return.

My mom said something to miss Bernardo. My mom and I said goodbyes to each other. She said that she will come weekly to give me clothes. She handed the bags to some people or caretakers and gave me the keys to my dorm room I think. I dont need money here. Because The money that was paid by my mom are the expenses for food, water and electricity that we will use.

Then my mom walked away.

Madam Bernardo introduced me to some seniors-I think-to give me a--Map!!! what the hell! There are so many arrows and numbers! My eyes widened and my mouth began to open.

"Is there a problem?"

the principal said. Okay, there's a big problem! This school is so big and the way is so wide! How can I find my room?!

"U--uhh. No, there's no problem, madam."

"Okay, I'll just go to my office. The office can be found easily. Just read the directions in the map. Go and find friends. see you around, miss Ahnn."

Okay, who can read directions here! Can you help

me?!
