Hi, my name is Kathaleena Thompson. My stepfather decided to move his two sons and I down to his hometown of Queens, New York just before the holidays. After a few days of school, my class takes a school trip.
That one day is the day my world gets f...
"Goodbye Florida, hello New York." I whispered as we got on the plane to take us north to Queens. Apparently Paul was born and raised in Queens, so that's where we're heading to. I put in my earbuds as the plane took off.

Two and a half hours later, we arrived in Queens. I looked around before Paul yelled at me to pay for the cab he was having us take. I rolled my eyes but got in the back with my stepbrothers, Asher and Austin. The best way to tell is Austin is taller and older, and Asher is shorter and younger, (by like two minutes.) Once we arrived, I paid the man and we got out to see our new apartment. I hate this. At least in Orlando I had a yard to run free in, here, I can't find any grass whatsoever. I shook my head but headed upstairs anyway so I could get to my room and be alone with my cat in solitude. I grabbed the cat crate and headed upstairs to my room. Before I could open the door, our neighbor opened the door and smiled at me. "Hi, I'm May. You must be our new neighbor." The brunette lady said. "Oh, yeah. I'm Kathaleena, it's nice to meet you, May." I smiled back at her. "May, I'm back... who's this?" A boy asked as I turned to see him. "I'm Kathaleena, your new neighbor." I smiled softly at the attractive boy. "Well then, it's nice to meet you, Kathaleena. My name is Peter." He grinned. "It's nice to meet you as well." I said. "Kat! I'm hungry! Mac and cheese!" Austin whined as I shook my head. "It was nice meeting you both, but I have to make some dinner." I laughed dryly as they waved and I walked into the apartment. "Mac and cheese. Now." Asher demanded. "I'll make it in a moment, just let me put my stuff in my room." I said before pushing past them and into my room. I've always had the smallest room, so I make due with what I have.

I had a little closet to the side with my clothes already in there and hung up neatly. I put the cat crate down and opened it to let my kitten, Dust, out so she could sniff around before I walked into the kitchen to make some dinner.

After dinner I went back into my room to find Dust fast asleep on my bed. I walked out onto the fire escape to get some fresh air, but grumbled when the air was fresher inside. I shook my head before going back inside to change into pjs and hop into bed next to my warm kitten. I fell to sleep quickly by the sound of her soft purr.
