Chapter 3 - Day 1 at Redcrest (2)

My heart's racing

Will I be able to cope. I've heard so many terrible rumors about Redcrest Academy but nothing cringe me more than the high rate of bullying Agi told me about.

Hi my name is Genevieve Matthews but my friends call me Vivi and today is my first day at Redcrest.

My best friend, Agatha attended Redcrest but she was transferred to another school because of the unfortunate turn of events .

This morning I was so excited at first, although, I missed Clifford high, nothing can change that but the rules at Redcrest is so awesome. The rules are in my admission profile.

I have nothing to do with the stealing and late coming rules but the fact that students are allowed to wear any hairdo apart from wigs , then any type of shoe was so agreeable.

I was so fortunate this time around. Last year Christmas my dad got me lots of snickers . Most of them were Air Jordan and adidas .

Also students were allowed to bring any type of bag packs to school. Lastly phones and other ict gadgets were allowed except games. Unlike Clifford, the school rules were the order of the day . They are so much and problematic and must be strictly adhered to.

The morning breeze and car engine sounds are always my favorite. Just look at the busy city. It's Monday, almost 9:00 and we're stuck in traffic. Like hell…

I saw some of my soon to be school mates who probably missed the bus, trekking down the walk path. They look pure to me .. you know; Non bully if that's something.

So I tried to relax, nothing bad is gonna happen.

We're almost at Redcrest just few kilometers away.

"Dad"

"Yes honey"

" I've been giving this a lot of thought… can you please pick me after school"

He didn't say anything . I know this was rather too selfish of me. It's Monday of all days and he'll be busy maybe through out the day .

" sorry dear . I got lots of things to do , maybe some other time , for now just ride the bus and make new friends okay."

Easy for you to say . My friends at Clifford will forever be my friends. I said childishly.

Looking out the window I saw him…

Lucas Brulotte .

Damn he's really handsome.

It appears that he's also stuck in traffic. Damn , he's so beautiful . He's got those piercings and his new haircut suits his well sculpture face. I didn't notice I was staring too hard that he notice My gaze. It was like he cast a spell on me.

He winked at me. Why is everything happening in slow-mo. His well defined jawline, full lips and straight bridge nose are all real . Those Jade green eyes just winked at me . My heart's pounding in my ears. Lucas Brulotte just winked at me.

I didn't even notice when his car drive past mine.

I diverted my gaze asap .

Lucas Brulotte, one of the smartest and most handsome students at Redcrest. To my calculations , Lucas might be in my class because we are in the same grade . Agi and I have prayed fervently for Lucas to be in my Class and there's nothing God cannot do.

Agi and I literally made our research on Lucas . He's from a very wealthy family. His dad is a successful politician and his mom owns NECTAR cosmetics. Her company is one of the fast moving cosmetics in the country. He's the fifth child of his family. Mr and Mrs Brulotte weren't able to have female child so they ended up making five handsome men of which Lucas caught my attention.

This school session is gonna be fun, I can feel it . If only Agi knows what's going on. I'm gonna call her after school.

I can feel my ears turning red, I reached for it , damn it's hot. I need something to ease the excitement burning in me . I fixed my ear pod properly into my ears and access my playlist…

After 30 mins

************

We're here,

I stepped out of the car while my dad went back to get my things from the back sit.

It's nothing new though. I've seen the highly prestigious Academy on Tv shows and have been here once . It's just that certain things have been refurbished and modified.

"How lovely" I scoff

"Here are your things mi lady" my dad hand over my school bags and water bottle to me .

"always stay hydrated and try not to get in trouble okay"

"I'll do just that". thumbs up popzilla , the best dada in the world .

"I'm off, I'll see you later Hun"

He zoomed off

" Great so, where do I begin"

Redcrest welcome your Queen …

The academy is a well known institution. Not many are opportune to gain admission into the academy but I'm lucky, I guess.

How will I even locate my classroom.

" Good morning student. It's another beautiful day. As it stands all students are to report to the auditorium in less than 30mins. Failure to do so will attract severe punishment" . The announcement was convey via the speakers suitated at particular locations of the school walls. I also notice the CCTV camera were all over the hall way.

At this time the students where moving swiftly, heading towards one direction my guess, the auditorium.

We are waiting patiently to be addressed by the principal or head of teachers. Some students were outside the auditorium, they were held outside probably because they were late .

Their fate awaits them.

" Good morning students, the principal will like to specially address you all this morning" . A slim middle age woman gave an intro.

Everyone started clapping and I followed suit.

The principal came up the podium. Then everywhere turn dead silence followed by murmuring from the crowd.

'Is she the new principal'

'What happened to Mr Stevan'

'She looks strict'

The murmuring stop when she adjusted the microphone to her lips.

"Good morning Children"

I wasn't expecting such a deep and husky voice from a beautiful young lady. She's the principal.
