Being socially awkward just comes easily to me than others , the silence , long stares with strangers,uncomfortable positions you can find yourself ,wrapped up in one package that's what my life can be described as right now .
Oh...,forgot to introduce myself you might just be thinking what's this weird girl talking about ..who am I ,you asked well I think it time for my introduction isn't it I think I'm going way too deep into this so I'm just going to start right now...Ok..now .
I'm Emilia Grey ,yes,yes,the one and only probably heard my name ,in the city of never ,yh ,I'm also cringing so hard , right now I'm a senior in high school ,it's a all boarding school ,my time in high school has not been so bad but still not the best am among the popular unpopular students in school ,you know those you just know although you don't !ran to their name is just being mentioned everywhere ,non,no ,it's not because they hosted that cool party on Friday night ,this people won't even be invited to any parties at all but you just know ,you know ,OK ,I'm being confusing ,you don't know .
This is my last day in high school where I was the the last five years , the last day before I can finally move out and break free from all the shackles of this town , my big plan since I was in eight grade is to move to a college so far away there won't eben be a small opportunity to meet anyone from this small town again , to start another life, one that's actually mine this time ...time to meet me
" Emilia ! Emily !! Emilia !!!!" the voice of my persistent bunk mate Cara zoomed in " Chocolate pudding ..rock chocolate ice cream ..real food " I muttered pointlessly on my bed not having it in me to wake up this !morning " Emilia ,you better come down the bathroom is ready ,I'm going to take my bath with or without you know " Cara kept talking .I opened my eyes looking a my bed and my bunk mate without thinking too long about got up ..took my towel and bathroom essentials from the hanger and went out to the long halls ,the cold outside hits my fragile body ,still sleepy I try to walk off the feeling on my way to the bathroom ,so looking back for Cara " At least wait up "The cold is not for the soft hearted ,what must be done now ..must be down now there is no time to wait till tomorrow fear of the unknown grips both I and Cara in the school bathroom with out hands on the shower switch fully aware of the cold water about to make contact with our body very soon .
"Are you ready ,Cara" I asked
"No..why don't you go first "
Me ..as I ..Emilia"
" Yes ..you" Cara looked at me expecting me to do something
With the switch in my hands I made no sign of turning it on ,I can't be the first person to be hit
" Ok ,what about I count to three..1..2..3 " Cara shrieked as the water hit her body
"Ahh!!" I gave a similar sign as we bought took our bath and rushed out of the bathroom
You might be wondering what are two sane perfectly normal high school girls doing inside the bathroom by six in the morning, this has become a routine for I and Cara my one and only bunk !ate ,partner in crime, believer in all things pure and beautiful that is me,Preston high ,our high school has always been known for is high handedness , boarding schools , fiety..well almost fiery students and of course the none existent heater the hostel which is still the only heater the the girls hostel .
"Good Morning ,Emilia "
"Emilia " Another junior shouted arose the Hall way
" Emily" Bora crossed the hallway to greet me helping with the books I had in my hands
I know this was not the awkward high schooler you were promised but I'm coming
