I run around my house trying to find something to wear.

It's the first day of school and even though I went back to school shopping for clothes, I have no idea on what to wear.

"Mom!" I groan as I run around the house.

"What crazy?" She yelled from upstairs.

"I don't know what to wear! Help!"

I can hear my mom laughing as she walks down the stairs.

"We went shopping Zendaya!" My mom exclaims.

I mumble an I know in response.

"Why are you stressing?" She asked. "What you have on is cute!"

I am wearing an ivory colored cropped sweatshirt that says "Badwood Made in Los Angeles" along with some gray leggings.

My hair is tied up into a neat bun and I have on some big gold hooped earrings. I complete the look with a watch on my wrists and a ring on my finger.

Oh, I also have a waist band around my waist.

"Because!" I groan as I look down at my outfit

"Because!" I groan as I look down at my outfit.

My mom shakes her head and walks over to me.

"You look fine!" She says. "Stop stressing because you're gonna see your man today! He liked you before so don't stress yourself!"

How does she read me like a book? I think to myself.

"Thank you... I guess I just thought I looked kind of basic." I say while looking down at the floor.

"You look basically beautiful," my mom replies while laughing at herself.

I chuckle at her joke as I put on some shoes to match my outfit.

"You almost ready?" My mom asked as she grabs her car keys.

"Yeah, give me five seconds!" I state.

"Five...four..." my mom counts down.

Walking into my room I grab my lipgloss off the counter and I also grab my money.

Me and my mom walk outside and we both hop in the car.

Fifteen minutes later, we arrive at the front of the school.

"Have a good day Daya Baya. I'll see you after school!"

I get out of my moms car and I wave goodbye to her as she drives off.

I make my way to the cafeteria and I look at the list with everyone's first periods on it.

Drama? I think to myself. I didn't sign up for this, but okay!

I make my way to my first period and I'm one of the first ones there.

I recognize a girl that me and my friends used to sit next to at lunch and I sit next to her.

"Hey," I say to the girl as I sit down.

The brown haired girl turns her attention towards me and off of her notebook.

She glances at me and then she gives me a shy smile.

"Hi," I hear her mumble.

That's the only thing she says before she's back to what she was doing.

"What are you writing?" I asked interested in what she was doing.

"Just a story...for- for my English class."

"Oh," I look around the classroom letting out an awkward whistle.

"How was your summer?" The girl asked looking up from her notebook.

I'm a bit shocked because she doesn't seem like she'd be all the interested in talking but here we are.

"My summer was okay, I just had summer school." I reply. "How was your summer?"

"It was fine, my little siblings kept on bothering me but it's okay because I love them to death!"

There is a silence that fills the air and more people enter the classroom.

"I'm glad I'm the youngest sibling out of all of my siblings, the rest of them are in college!"

The bell rings and a lady who I'm assuming is our teacher, walks into the classroom.

"Hi guys," the teacher says.

No one replies so the teacher keeps on talking.

"Welcome to Drama 1, I'm Ms.Crown. In this class we will learn about different types of drama and we will also do some acting!"

I look around the classroom and I feel like I'm the only senior!

"For this week, we'll be playing some team exercising games that'll also help me learn everyone's names!" Ms.Crown states. "I need everyone to get into two groups of fourteen!"

Ms.Crown explains each game and then we play them until the end of the period.
