Laura POV
My alarm started ringing "aarrrgh" I put my pillow over my head to reduce the noise but my alarm has did wonderful job of waking me up.
I finally turned it off and went straight to the bathroom to bath. I came out in a bathrobe.
I was starting a new school today on scholarship.Royal Valley Academy is a school for the rich and I couldn't believe it when I was given the scholarship.when I looked it up online it was a school where people that people strive tooth and nail to gain admission into so for me it was like a dream come true. Not that my family is poor financially just some shitty family problems. I put on my new uniform a white shirt with the school logo on the left breast pocket. And a red skirt that stopped above my knee showing most of my legs. I put on my red tie, blazer and jacket with my new socks and shoes that I bought from my savings.
My phone rang and Jessica's message beeped. " I'm waiting" I quickly texted back
"coming 🏃🏼♀🏃🏼♀🏃🏼♀🏃🏼♀🏃🏼♀🏃🏼♀".
I hurriedly went down to meet her.
I met my best friend in her car back seat and her driver at the front. Jessy and l have been best of friends since child hood. As most people say it super days. She was actually the one who introduced me to her school's scholarship program and I was able to make it.
"Wow!! babe you really look pretty in our school uniform." I smiled at her compliment
"morning to you too." She chuckled . "morning Mr Musa" he nodded and roared the engine to life.
Pardon😣😥😣 my manners I'm Laura Nelson, I'm fifteen years old and I'm in SS2. If you are imagining me to be all petty long get and model like, well you are so wrong . I'm a short dark skinned girl you can call me ebony if you wish. I've got a slightly dark brown eyes, a very black ,short but puffy hair. I'm the only child of my mom and my dad , lets not talk about him. The view in my front left me dumbstruck. Awesome can't describe this view I'll give it magnificent . I felt something on my mouth. "Babe close mouth na and calm down" that's when it dawned on me that my mouth was open I quickly snapped it shut.
The school was very big building all painted in white and the school compound has a lot of flowers and carpet grass. The driver pulled up in the parking lot
"omo see cars" I whispered "you haven't seen anything yet" Jessica said
There's still more ,maybe this school won't be as bad as I thought.
I went to the principal office with the help of Jessica where I was told the rules and registration of the school afterwards, a woman who I guess is my class teacher was summoned.
I'm a science student. The woman entered the class when I sighted Jessica in the middle row. The class suddenly became quiet upon the teacher entrance.
"Morning ma'ám" they greeted in sync.
"Morning class how was your holidays" different replies rolled in.
"Whatever it is or was welcome. Not to drift too far I will like to introduce you guys to the new member of the class" her head turned towards my direction "come in"
I took a deep breath here goes nothing I gently walked into the class and faced the students
" hello, my name is Laura Nelson and I am fifteen years old. Its nice to meet you" I said it all in a breath. They clapped except from a few throwing me hateful glares like I cared. I was told to seat beside a somewhat brown girl with black hair and she was really pretty.
"Hey" she said to me
"Hey" I said back
"I'm Cherry Obong Its really nice to meet you"
"Thanks I guess I introduced myself earlier" she nodded in affirmative and smiled what a pretty smile.
Class started and each teacher made Mae introduce myself some where nice and friendly while some were really scary. Jessica seat was not too far from mine which is nice at least I got my best friend with me and not all the girls were giving me hate glares.
The bell for break was rung. Jessica and Cherry who seemed closer to each other took me to the cafeteria. the cafeteria is as big and good as a five star restaurant.they had waiters serving food to students on one side of the hall. it was also neat and had a good seating arrangement. Where they introduced me to their friends who were Sam( P.S Jessica long time crush), Asher and Henry they were like a gang of friends who appeared cool to be with.
"RJC are yet to resume for school" Cherry said
"Yeah! seems like they are coming next week" Asher said and Jessica sighed
" at least there is gonna be peace for a week." Jessica said.
" who is RJC "I asked out of the blue.
" Trust me you don't wanna know" Henry said for the first time.
"Why ?" I asked curiously "are they cultists" they chuckled slightly and my utterance.
"No" Sam said between laughs.
"RJC is a term for the school princes" cherry started. "Raymond, Jason and Charles. Firstly Charles
Adegbite the biggest player in school he dates both junior and Senior although people know he is a big time player, girls still flock around him like flies. He is the son of KODIS companies CEO.
Secondly;
Secondly Raymond Dafe . his dad is the CEO of VAST pharmacitical companies. He is cold and the most quiet of the three.
Lastly; Jason Winchester the leader of the group. His dad is the richest business man in Nigeria. He is an half caste and the coldest of all as well as the most handsome in the school.
"Ohh" was all my mouth could say.
"They are the most powerful families and no one messes with them even the school except they want hell" Sam said " Also Jason is a big time bully."
"Can't the school stop them"
"well they will only take them to the disciplinary officer who will only tell both parties to apologize " my head could only nodded it is really hard to believe that in this school stuff like that happens.
After lunch,we all went to our class and the day went by quickly .
When Jessica dropped me in the place I call home and I suddenly felt lonely again.
My mom was my dad maid when he took advantage of her and that advantage led to a disadvantages which is me. At that time my step mom was a few months pregnant so when my mom told him she was pregnant he denied her at first but my grandma who really liked my mom and trusted her .
She helped my mom carry out DNA test at different hospitals and it was positive.
My mom died during my birth and she didn't have any family I was told, and its really sad to celebrate my mom remembrance on my birthday. My dad wanted to throw me out but my grandma was against it and took me in together with grandpa we live in the village where I met Jessica.
Jessica dad was given a contract which changed their lives .
When my grandpa got really sick, my grandma couldn't take care of both of us so she decided to give me to my dad. My step mom is a real bitchy witch she makes me do alot of work what am I even saying all the work while her twins Annika and Brietta only press phone every day.
I'm treated like I don't even exist in this place and I'm always reminded to know my place.
Entering the house I saw my step mom and my sisters at the table having lunch. Annika is the first twin who people call Taiwo and Brietta the Kenny. They are identical but it easy to differentiate them cause unlike Brietta ,Annika is alim and brown and got this figure eight shape. Brietta is also a figure eight just that she was plumpier than Annika. We are age mates but they are a few months older.
"Good afternoon ma" I greeted my step mom and she didn't answer me as usual. The girls gave me a type of glare I can't fathom what it was .
Shrugging that off I headed to my room which was the smallest other was linked with a bathroom which is really cool. I quickly changed and did my assignment before heading down prepare dinner.
