IVY

Winter breaks are over and my school will start from tomorrow. Happy, I am not because I have to face and be with those fake people again.

I love staying at home why can't my parents just home school me.I really kept it as a option but my parents won't allow me to.

Am I a nerd? a nobody in school? I hope I was but I am not.In fact I am popular, yeah its true. And if you think its a good thing its just your brain that is not working properly.

There is nothing great in being popular, you will have to compete,most people around you will be wearing fake masks. There is no such thing as best friends in there, its a totally different world.

Now think again do you still want to be a popular girl. Anyway now I won't force you, but you will change your mind by the end of this book.

So, here's my story.

Hi I am Ivy, Ivy Dickens I am a highschooler, I study in Saint Hills and I am part of this really popular girl group, I am someone may people want to be.

So it all started because of my brother, I don't blame him but it is what it is. He came into this school and was declared a brilliant child at the age of 10. Every single teacher loved him and appreciated him.

He won many awards and was in our school committee. He had many friends and many girls were into him. Then I came into school as his little sister. Now I started getting attention from the day I entered into this school.

They all expected me to be as good as him and guess what?I was. But then I came in seventh grade and I started to feel like I can't do this anymore.

I started facing problems in Mathematics, and in ninth grade I started finding it difficult to concentrate on my studies.

I really enjoyed my holidays as I went to Las Vegas to visit my sister Amy. That is the one of the very few places I like to visit.

I really enjoyed my holidays at my home that place is where I can be the real me.I was really happy the past one month until now.Why do I have to go back to that hellish place?

The next morning I forced myself to get out of my bed and get ready. I ate fruits as my breakfast cuz I have to keep this so called good figure of mine.

It was around 9:00 when my friends came to pick me up. I jumped into the car and we rode off. We were always the last ones to enter as they said that it will attract more attention.

Whenever we entered our school all the eyes automatically turned towards us. "What do you think" asked Angelia, she is one of the so called friend of mine. I looked at her with a blank expression. I had no idea what they were talking about.

"Back in the car miss" she continued. "She is asking what are you gonna wear to the prom and who is your date" said her brother jack.

She always wanted to know what I am wearing as she wanted to dress better. "I haven't decided" I replied.She had a suspicious expression on her face but its true I even forgot about the prom.

We reached our school and as expected everyone turned towards us. As we got off the car,there were the two besties of Angelia; Daisy and Susan. They are always around her as if the world revolves around her.But I don't really care much.

So we all entered our school in a group. I stood at my lockers taking out my french book for my first period when Nancy came to greet me.

She had a big friendly smile one her face, I smiled back as a regard.We talked random stuff for a bit and then she walked away.

As soon as she left those three turned towards me and started gossiping about how Nancy is of low class and she is not of our standard. I was so damn angry but I said nothing just kept nodding.

The bell rang and I went to my first class. I was not in one of the class with any of the three girls and I felt kinda normal. After my 5th class it was lunch break and those cats (that's what I call Angelia, Daisy and Susan as a trio).

We entered our cafeteria together and as usual most of the students turned towards us. The entire time they were discussing about what to wear to the upcoming prom what the theme should be and with whom to go while I was on my phone checking my feeds.

We are in the organizing club so we had to decide what the theme was and all that stuff. Only few days were left for the prom so the principal gave us half a day for the preparations for the entire week.

Time passed really quickly and we decided to keep the theme as gowns and tuxedos. We divided everyone in three groups and gave them tasks. Our head teacher asked me to be the supervisor as she thought I was the perfect fit.

To be honest I love planning things but most of the time Angelia comes in between and always takes up the task.This time it was different because she asked our teacher Mrs. Blossom to make her the supervisor, but she refused and asked me to take the lead because she thought I had great ideas.

When the school ended and we were walking to our car Angelia said "I gave up this opportunity for you. I am tired of always being the center of attraction". I just smiled as was able to smell the jealousy from where I was standing.

Our driver was waiting for us so we said our byes and went into the car.The whole time Angelia was talking about how we cannot ask a guy out for prom and how they should ask us and we should keep them in the waiting list.

The whole school knows that she has a crush on Alvin and she wants him to ask her out.

I reached home, and i was really sick and tired of pretending. I went into my room, locked the door, and was just about to hit the bed when I suddenly got a call.
