Chapter 4 - Chapter 4:The first leap to camp.

They door of the bus closes gently. She could no longer see the sight of her family as the bus drove away. She goes to find her seat as her friends calls her.

The bus was long and big due to the amount of people that would be going to that famous camp, "Camp Sunnyside". I quickly looked for them as i found them at the last seat of a row.

"Harmony come sit here". She carried her backpack and walked towards them. I was still a bit nervous, cause lots of eyes were staring at me...creepy right.

I sat quietly. "Harmony why so quiet not even a hi or hey or hello or...". As Ashley interrupts her. "Shh...let her speak". "Sorry guys am just a bit nervous". "No problem how about you take some Shuteye before we reach Camp". Tiffany advised.

Moments later the bus finally stops in front of a big beautiful cabin in the middle of trees and flowers. A sign saying"Welcome to Camp Sunnyside....there's a sunny side in every kid".

All they students alighted the bus,remaining their Harmony. They quickly woke her up. "Are we there yet". Harmony said in a sleepy tone, trying to clear her sleepy face. "Come on sleeping beauty, let's go!". Ashley said with excitement. "Come on now, don't wanna miss the good stuffs". Tiffany said happily.

She quickly carries her backpack as they all went to the exit. Harmony came down receiving the fresh summer breeze that she loves so much. She sees lots of people in different sizes,height, shape and complexion.

And wow!, they were lots of tempting cute boys too, dad was right camp was going to be tough. "Harmony come on, do you wanna keep day dreaming, lets live the dream instead". Ashley said excited. Harmony is so astonished by the well kept environment, most especially the flowers that scented so divine.

It was summer buy it felt like all the seasons were joined together in symphony.

They all head to the camp administrator to give them their appropriate cabins. "Sorry girls but it seems your friend here would be appointed to a different cabin with different roommates". The light skinned lady said. She wore white shorts,a yellow top with her name tag on it. Her hair was packed in a ponytail.

"Look here miss, we stay together,just like how pizza is perfect with cheese and pepperoni,that's the way we are". Ashley said in attempt to get their requests fulfilled,but it was to no avail. "Let me explain what she's saying, she's saying..., we are like a family bee, we go everywhere together". Tiffany even demonstrated togetherness with her hands.

The lady just smiled. "I'm sorry girls, but that's the rules. Here at camp Sunnyside we do things civilised. Just like how the seniors are separated from the juniors, there's a reason for that and i don't make the rules. Hope you understand". "Okay miss...sunflower?". Harmony said with a puzzled look. "What type of name is that". Harmony asked. "It's a confidential name, my real name is not included in my job. You better get settled now before it's evening and the camp fire is going to be set on, so hurry and if there's any problem,do come see me". As she smiles weirdly at them.

"Okay, i will meet you guys at the campfire". As they departed. Harmony had to find her way by herself. She was busy looking at the camp map that she barely knew where she was walking. She suddenly hits something or someone. It sounded like a loud bang. I felt like i hit a long hard tree.

She then raises her head from the map and realised that she had hit some one. But this person didn't look like a person he looked like a fallen angel from the sky. I couldn't help but gulp at his appearance. His long thick black hair he packed in a ponytail,his glittering purple eyes like they were rivers flowing in them. He looked wealthy.

I finally had the guts to speak. "Am sorry..". My voice dried up as i spoke. "No problem, but should i recommend you to be careful next time, so you don't end up hitting your miniature and incompetent scaly brain from getting damaged, cause it seems your to mediocre to reason with that brain of yours".

I stood there like a fool as he just pushed me before passing. I turned and looked at his elegance which was so enticing to touch, yet poisonous. 'Did that jerk just insult me'. I just pushed him away. No bad vibes at my first day at camp.

After a while, Harmony finally arrived at a nice cabin, after passing lot of cabins In the girls quarters. The cabin had a cute mailbox and nice wooden stairs, just everything wood and timber.

A bear sculpture made of wood just at the right, near the mailbox.

Harmony goes to ring the bell. The door slowly creaks as It opens.

A teenage girl In a yellow rumper, black and brown coloured hair, silvery black eyes like an early morning stream flowing and was light In complexion. And was wearing flip-flop.

"Welcome to camp Sunnyside, my name Is Angel Carson. Come on In". She had a sweet voice and seemed sweet too.

Harmony enters shyly. She just looked around with comfort. The beautiful chocolate coloured house which complimented the pictures of some girls fixed at some corners of the walls.

A simple dinning , a cozy parlour, not big, but had some couches, milk coloured. A flower vase which made the cabin scent like a garden.

She closes the door. "Why don't you have a sit". She gestured sweetly for Harmony to sit. Harmony just gave a thankful smile.

"Your bags are already set for you In our room next to your bunk. We are two In the house plus you three. We are my manners dear. I never got to ask for your name". Putting her a hand on her forhead.

"No problem. My name Is Harmony_ Harmony Hunter".

"What a nice name. Anyways, keep or make yourself at home while I go call Beatrice" Leaving Harmony and enters a door next to the parlour.

Harmony just made herself comfortable on the soft couch.

Seconds later, Angel came back with a girl who wore long trousers, that were a bit baggy. Her hair was left In three braids, In which she applied gel to the front of her hair. Her eyes were dark like the aura she had, just by the look In her eyes. She seemed Intimidating.

She came to stand In front of Harmony, same with Angel. "Harmony, meet Beatrice. " Angel Introduced the girl, who smiled at Harmony. Harmony then stood up to greet her.

"Nice to meet you, Beatrice. " She brought a hand out, for Beatrice to shake, smiling back at her.

"What's up. " She greeted, before she shook Harmony's hand, after which she let go of It, to then place the hand Into her pocket.

"I'm good. How about you. " Harmony greeted, as Angel and Beatrice went to sit on the couch opposite where Harmony stood, after which she sat down.

"I'm cool. So Harmony.... " Beatrice looked Into Harmony's Innocent eyes.

"Yes." She replied with a smile, that showed her one sided dimple.

"How old are you? " Beatrice then crossed a leg over the other.

"I'm Sixteen year old. How about you." Her eye then moved to Angel, who looked more friendly.

"Same age as you." Angel replied her with a smile, where as Beatrice scanned Harmony.

"So how long have you guys been attending this camp. " Her eyes went back to Beatrice.

"Well, I've been coming to Camp Sunny side since the junior stage." Angel replied.

"Oh... So you leave In America." Harmony asked.

"Not really. My family don't leave here. I stay with my grandparents for the summer." Harmony nodded, she then looked at Beatrice, wanting to here her own background.

"Well same with Angel, I've been coming to Camp Sunny side since junior stage." Harmony smiled at her, but she just held a grin on her face.

"So you stay with your family, here In America. " She asked further.

"Nope. I stay with my Uncle. Ever since I lost my mom ten years ago, I stopped leaving with my dad." Her face straight as she explained, like the emotions of saying her sad background was In the past.

"I'm so sorry to hear that. " Harmony sent her sympathy to her, who just smiled, that didn't reach her eyes.

"No problem. "

" But why don't you stay with your dad. " She asked with knitted brows.

"My dad got married ten year after, to a woman, that says a lot than her pretty face." Harmony got the Idea that her stepmother was not nice. "Living there Is like digging my own grave. "

"Anyways.... " Angel Interrupted. "How about you get settled In Harmony, we have a camp fire party for the new comers. And I wouldn't want you to miss It. " Harmony smiled warmly at her.

"Okay, then. " She stood up, same with the two girls, and the guided her Into one of the door that was In the Cabin.

She entered the room, and closed the door behind her. The room was painted In white and yellow. It was big enough for the three of them. Where as It had a bunk bed, and a single bed. The bunk bed close to a medium sized window with a yellow curtain with a small drawer kept under the window.

The single bed was a bit close to the door the entered from.

"You have the down bunk Harmony. Your camp clothes are on the bed. So anytime you want to wear It, It's there for you." Angel explained, while Beatrice sat on the single bed. She looked like someone who wanted her space, so that would explain why she had the single bed.

Harmony nods, simplifying she understood what Angel was explaining to her. "Your luggage has been brought for you. " Harmony looked at her purple traveling bag and white school bag that had been kept beside the bunk.

"Thanks for helping me, you guys. I really feel welcomed. " She smiled at the two girls. One who sat down, and the other who stood next to the other.

"It's fine. We remember our first day In Camp Sunny side, we needed help too." Angel assured her. "If you want to take a shower, there's a bathroom at the opposite door. "

"Thanks a lot." She thanked them more.

"No problem. We do this to all newbies. " Beatrice said with a sour smile , before she left the room.

"Please do endure her sourness. She's like that." Angel said, a bit awkward.

"No worries. I get where she's coming from. " She smiled at her, where as Angel forced a smile.

"Let me leave you to unpack, then. " Angel then left Harmony alone.
