Kehna's POV

"Kehna wake up!" my mom shouted.

I was the only child in the family, we lived in a small village called Tacoma. We weren't rich, we can't even afford a good apartment to live.

We moved from Mexico to Tacoma, and today is my first day at school.

"Kehna wake up you'll be late on your first day" my mom shouted again. Groaning I got out of the bed and went to shower.

My dad already had a job he would wake up at midnight because he works in a bakery and would come back home by 10 am. We only see each other at noon. Even if we don't have a good relationship, we always try to be a united family.

After dressing up I went straight to the kitchen where my mom is. "Good morning mom".

"Good morning darling, how was your night?"

"Um... my back and shoulders hurt so much" I replied.

"Don't worry when you come back from school, I'll give you a massage, what do you think about that, huh?"

"Okay, thanks mom".

Looking at the clock my eyes popped out "HOLY GHOST MOM I'M GOING LOVE YOU BYE!".

I just got a slice of toast and bid goodbye to her with a kiss on her forehead. After that I ran for my life.

"Dang it! I can't be late on my first day, that won't be a good first impression" I muttered.

I ran and luckily met the bus and quickly took the first empty seat I saw.

A girl was already sitting on the other seat, I noticed that after I sat down.

"Hi I'm Ruby, are you new here?" Before I answered her question, I thought her name didn't fit her face, but she was very pretty.

Ruby was a very well known girl in that village. She and her family had made themselves famous in that village not just because of their wealth but because of their unclean deeds.

"Which class are you in?"

"I'm in the 8th class, I don't know which one exactly"

"Well great, I'm in the 8th class too, don't worry I'll show you everything at school. You know what? We can be friends if you want".

I wasn't always the one to make friends quickly or make friends at all, excitedly then I said "Yes!"

"When we get to school I'll show you everything you need to know, okay?" Ruby said. I nodded in response like an obedient dog. We talked a bit on the way but then realized that most students were staring at us, most especially at me. 'What the-'.

And yeah, Ruby showed me the school and my schedules, the students were really strange, they continued mumbling things. I didn't had time to talk to other students,

I only got to know the names of the students in her class.

The school was finally over. I was so happy.

I didn't go back home with Ruby, a black car with tinted windows picked her up.

Wondering but really didn't think much about it. Before I got home I could scent my favourite food from afar.
