Chapter:2
I was having a seren night sleeping when my mom came and flashed the brihht light of her cellphone in my face...I start to squeeze my eyes to life and thsts when my Dad pours on me water...cold water.and my siblings Hannah and Chloe throw at me candy....I loved the surprise but it was a little too intense...They all get out laughing as they simg me happy birthday...Ya that's right am 17...I wish I could go back to sleep in my bed but it's soaking wet so I get a fresh duvet ftom my second closet and lie on the floor with my phone.I start scrolling on my phone through Instagram and I land on some photos showing Megahertz landing in USA...For the first time I felt glad for being a citizen of USA obviously by registration duey dad's job there as a business planner.

The morning sunlight crept through the blinds , casting a warm glow over the room.The air was filled with the sweet sceny of blooming flowers and the gentle hum of birds outside the window.I stretch feeling the hardness of the floor I slept on. I yawn ,rubbing the sleep from my eyes .I lift up my legs and make my way to the kitchen to get a other heart attack .Surprisilingly there is no attack ...it's just a family of a nan and a woman with two kids hokding pates of my favorite dishes with creepy smiles..
Okay I would rather deal with the surprise attacks. Good morning I sif down and dig in my cream pie..As I finish my beeskfast dad adjs me if I need a ride to school ...like wht in tge world would I need a ride to school on my Birthday....am old enoughbyo get myself one ...I always asked for a car but mom ses to be the only one witb issues of me not allowed to own a car...All my friends have cars.and me not gaving one makes me feel like a loser....I thought they would get me a car for my birthday but instead they got me an Iphone 15.Wow l always wanted one but so do I want a car...I dash up the stairs..to get cleaned up..I dressed up in my pink big shirt with black tennis skirt having a thin silver chain ruuning along it plus black ankle high boots...I grab my books and head down the stairs and rush into Daniella's car..who gives a warm hug to wish me happy birthday...
*********
We enter class and to my surprise everyone wishes me happy birthday ...and tge the most akward thing happens ..Ryan Washington send me a love letter..okay just wow not wow in a good way but in a bad way ..Ryan is the so called Hot flame of our class..he is kind the hottest guy at school ..I knew the letter was a joke so I dropped it on my bag..."Okay students open up to page 43 in your Literature book.
We all xo as told.I hate literatur and loce it at the same time but I could eeally make use of another litearture teacher beachse Mr.Lesyee is so boring to an extent I sleep and end up drooling in my book.Mr.Lesyee uses tge small ruler to tap on me....Arrrg worst lesson ever.... Minutes pass by and the belk rings...for break time.Casey grabs my hand and we all bead out to the cafeteria..I pick up hamburger and smoothie to go..I am so gkad we do not have classed for the rest of the day..it's just sports for boys...We all head to basketball court and grab ourselves seats and all drain into our phonesRight before we had left class I had picked up Ryan's letter from my bag an put it in my front pocket...so when everyone was destructed on their phones I pulled it out and sysrted reading.
***My dearest Aniella,
Every time I see your face my heart skips a beat and my soul takes flight .You are the cream cheese to my bagel ,the peanuf butter to my jelly, the Merlot to my pizza night.
Your eyes are like two shimmering pools of azure that draw me in with their irresistible charm.Your hair is like a rich ,velvety softness that l long to run my fingers through .Your smile is like a ray of sunshine thst brightens up even tge darkest of days .I know that we are only class mates but I feel a deep and abiding connection to you tgst transcends the boundaries of time and space .I know that we are meant to be together and I am willing to do whatever it takes to make that happen
Yours always
Aniella Hein Lerato

Oh my Gosh..eeeeww..I turn to my left and right and notice that Casey and danielka were reading the whole time.."Oh my Gosh .Ryan wrote you a letter...she shouts so loud but glad enough we are only ones in the sesring area...but guess what Ryan a d he's team are practicing and he hears us ...He just gives me that weird smirk on his face which makes Celeste right bdhind me to soon in delight... I tear the letter into pieces while he's watching...the reason tto why I was being all like that is that....I knew the letter was a joke and I don't like being joked around with...Ryan didn't show any negative response he just smiled right back at me..creep...We all walked out of the court ..It was 4 pm so we all decided to go and hang out at the park but Celeste and the others were not in the mood so I went with After enjoying the evening sunset ,we decided to head back home.We hit the open road ,the sun glinted off the hood of the old Mustang casting a warm glow over the interior.The engine purred smoothly and the wind whipped through my hair as I gazed out of the window..in no time we had reached my place..the house looked dark,maybe a power outage ..wow on my birthday.Casey opened the door and a loud roar came to life..my dad holding my birthday cake my siblings holdi.g hift boxes while my friends were recording everything.Wow! I blew out the candles.Next thing I know dad guides me to the garage where I see something like a car covered with a red sheet and yes he removed the sheet ..My mind got blown ,I was gifted a Nissan Sentra car. I hugged with lots of joy...He then gave me a sheepish smile "Now you go and see what mom gifted you.That made me get curious so I rushed back to the kitchen..Mommmmmmm I ran shouting.
