I woke up from the noise coming from my alarm clock.
"Arghh I'm so tired, I want to sleep some more" I lay back down to get some more sleep, but I got interrupted by the knocking on my door, I got up to unlock the door and saw my mum frowning "Good morning mum"
"Good morning Merry,why are you still in your night wear?, come on, go and take your bath now Merry" she said while pushing me to the bathroom.
"Okay mum, I've heard you"
"Today Is your first day at school Merry, you don't want to be late,or do you want to go to school late?"I shook my head slightly"No mum" "Good girl so bath, dress up and come downstairs for breakfast and you'll be on our way to your school, okay?
"Okay mum"
She left then I had a nice shower,got dressed in my uniform, its a white long sleeve and blue jacket that has my school logo on in and a nice short blue skirt
I packed my hair in a pony tail and looked at myself in the mirror "Nahh this isn't nice, I'll let it down instead" I let my hair down and quickly straighted my hair, I looked myself in the mirror again " Now I'm ready"
I went downstairs and saw my dad on the dinning table
I went to my dad and pecked him on his cheeks "Good morning dad" he turned to look at me " Good morning my little angel" I pouted my lips " I'm not little anymore dad" he laughed " I know, but you're still my little angel" "okay dad" I laughed
"Wow you look nice on your school uniform " my dad complimented me " Thanks dad"
I saw my mum coming out from the kitchen with some plates of food " Wooww, Merry!!, you look so beautiful on your uniform I must say" I smiled " thanks mum" she smiled and patted my head "you're welcome darling, now finish up your food fast so I can drop you off at school" I looked at her surprised "why isn't dad dropping me off at school" my dad looked at me and smiled " I have to go to work early today, I'll drop you off tomorrow okay?" "Okay dad" he got up to leave "bye my little angel and remember this you're smart, beautiful and brave" "thanks dad,bye"
Mum tapped my back "eat fast, daddy's little girl" I quickly finished my breakfast and told mum I was ready "okay let's go"
We got into the car and go read to leave after few minutes we arrived at Summerville High school top 1 best high school in New Town Summerville city
I was really excited to go in and make new friends I'm going to spread my wings here
My mum tapped me " what are you thinking about?" "Oh nothing mum" she smiled "okay, good luck baby girl and always remember to study hard" "okay mum" I came down from the car and waved her good bye "bye mum" she waved backed " take care sweet heart"
I made my way into the school, walking with my head held high cause my dad told me to be brave.
I got into the hallway and was looking for the principal's office to help me find my class and give me my timetable, while looking for someone I mistakenly bumped into someone making me stumble backwards and fall on the floor "Ouch" "oh my God I'm so sorry" a beautiful female said, I looked up to see who it was and I saw a very beautiful tall blonde hair girl, with the most beautiful hazel eyes.
She offered to help me up, I took her hands and got up." Oh my God I'm so sorry I was looking" I smiled " it's okay it wasn't entirely your fault" she smiled "thank you" I dusted my skirt when she looked at me " lt seems your lost and also new cause only new students get lost" I looked up and laughed slightly "Yes I'm new, I'm looking for the principal's office"
She smiled "I'll show you, by the way I'm Emily" "I'm Merry"
"Nice name" she told me with a bright smile on her face
"Thanks" I also smiled at her
She stretched her hands "so friends?" OMG I can't believe I've made a friend in a short period of time I was so happy and shook her hands " yes sure, we can be friends"I gave her a bright smile
"Okay let's go now so you won't get to class late" she directed me to the principal's office
"Thank you so much Emily" she smiled "you're welcome, we'll see again soon,byee"
"Bye" I said while waving her
I got in and the principal explained everything to me, gave me my timetable and directed me to my class
We got in to a noisy class, I was so nervous but then I remembered what my dad told me
The students didn't even notice the principal until he shouted "Be quiet students!!" They all were shocked to see the principal there, they all settled down.
The principal then began to talk " Better, now I have with me here a new transfer student" he turned to me " Please introduce yourself"
I smiled and turned to the class " Hi I'm Merry Alexander, I'm 16 ..." I paused for a while short of words I looked at the students waiting to hear something else from me,the principal looked at me surprised " are you done?" I nodded "yes sir" he smiled "add some line to it " I turned and said " well I'm friendly,and I'll like to make some new friends, thanks you" they clapped, I was surprised why they were clapping,seems they are all friendly
The principal pointed at a girl at the back seat and told me to sit there, I was surprised to see it was Emily, I was so happy she's in my class, when I got there she squealed In excitement,I smiled "Hi Emily, we meet again" she smiled "yeah, I'm so happy we are in the same class, seems we are made to become not just friends but besties" she winked at me I laughed
The principal drew my attention with his voice "Study hard Merry Alexander" I turned to him "yes sir"
Not long after a teacher walked in and wrote biology, yes I'm a science student and wants to become a doctor, I should have said that earlier, Emily whispered into my ears "this class is so boring Merry" I looked at her while laughing silently "I know right"
Minutes passed and the class was over, we had 4 different other class and it was lunch time
Emily turned to me "come on Merry,I'm famished let's go get something" she said while dragging me carefully out of my seat we got to the the cafeteria,and she realized she forgot her purse "Oh my God Merry, I forgot my purse, I'll be right back" I smiled slightly "okay" I made my way to get something to eat,I got my lunch,I was walking while looking for a seat, then I fell and realized a guy set his leg for me to fall, making my lauch fall to the floor as well,he laughed with his group of friends."Wow looks like we have a new prey to pick on"
I was so angry, I wanted to break his head, Jsyk I'm not naive or timid I infact I won't let anyone bully me, I won't pick up a fight I'll just make a warning to him, I was about to get up and talk to the bullies when a tall figure came and threw food all over the guys body, He got up fumming with anger "What the fuck Bryan" so his name is Bryan I said to myself, he turned to me and offered to help me up,I took his hands and stood up "Thanks" I smiled lightly at him, he's a very handsome guy, with a nice dark neatly cut hair,he also has hazel eyes just like Emily.
He turned to the bullies "This is just a warning fools, the next time I see you bullying anyone, I'll report you to the principal" The bully was pissed he walked out of the cafeteria angrily, his friends followed him as well
"Nusiance"
Bryan turned to me "hope you didn't get hurt" I shook my head "no I didn't" he smiled and put his hands in his pocket, the way he stood made him look like a handsome god.
He broke the silence between us "you must be wondering why I helped you" I nodded "well you're my sister's new friends that's why I helped you" I was surprised, he is Emily's brother "Wow, really?" He nodded " Yeah, I'm her elder brother, I'm two years older,I'm Bryan by the way" just then I saw Emily coming towards us and she saw the mess on the floor,she asked what happened I explained everything to her, she seemed angry, just like a true friend "I'm sure it's that fool Jack" so that bully's name was Jack.
Her brother turned to her and pinched her cheeks slightly "it's okay" she smiled and thanked him "thanks for standing up for Merry" he looked at me "oh I forgot to ask you your name, so sorry" he said while itching his hair in a cute way, I smiled " no it's fine" he smiled "okay, we'll meet again Merry" he said and waved I and Emily waved back at him
Emily turned to me "now let get something to eat"
Hours passed and the day was over "wow I can't believe I made a friend today" I told Emily she laughed and said "you better believe it"
We were walking down the hallway when I saw my mum's car
I turned and hugged her "see you tomorrow Emily" she waved and shouted at my retriting back "bye bestie"
What a long day I said to myself
I got into the car "hi mum"
"How are you, and how was your first day" I turned to her "it was nice mum, and guess what mum " she seemed to want to hear more "I made a new friend!!!" She was surprised "really that's so nice darling, tell me more about her"
"Well her name is Emily, I met her at the hallway when I bumped into her, she so sweet and nice " my mum just smiled at me "well I'm happy you're becoming like a normal teenage girl who has friends " she said while turning on the car and we headed home.
We got there in few minutes, I went to my room to have a shower, when I was done I did some assignments given to us, then I went downstairs and saw my Dad just coming in, I ran to him and hugged him "dad I missed you soooo much, good evening dad" he smiled and hugged me back "good evening my little angel, how was school" I let go of him and told him how my day went he was happy that I made a new friend " woow that's nice, well I'll go shower and we'll all have dinner together,them get some rest, cause you'll go to school tomorrow" I nodded "okay dad" he went upstairs and came back downstairs few minutes,I and mum had already set the table and was waiting for him
He came, we had a nice family talk and laughed together as well, when we all finished eating we did the dishes together, yeah, we are a happy perfect family, and I hope it stays like that .
When we were done doing the dishes my mum turned to me "little miss it's time for bed now" I nodded "good night mum, good night dad" I then went to my room and tucked myself in with my blanket, and I recalled what happened in school today " I can't wait to see Emily tomorrow" I got up remembering something "Oh my God,I forgot to collect her number,silly me" I smiled and lay back down"I'll just collect it tomorrow" then I slept off, and slept like a baby ..
.
.
Emily'POV
I got home feeling exhausted and then I remembered I didn't even collect Merry's number
"Oh shoot I forgot to take Merry's number"
Just then my brother Bryan walked in "you'll see her tomorrow,you can collect it" I turned and smiled "oh yeah, thanks"
He then sat down "she's actually beautiful you know?" I looked at him surprised cause my brother never had time for girls,so him saying that was surprising "What?" He looked at me "What?, I just said she's beautiful, I don't have a crush on her or something, silly girl" he then headed to his room.
I squealed In excitement "Bryan is showing interest in a girl" he then shouted "I am not, I just complimented her looks" I looked up at him "Yess you are" he just smiled "Whatever, good night little sis" I replied him "Good night big bro" he then went to his room
I went to my room still smiling like a fool 😅
I showered and went to lay on my bed " I can't wait to see Merry tomorrow"
