Chapter 1
That was a busy hour on the first day of spring in the land of the Netherlands. All the shed leaves from the trees start to grow. The excited schoolchildren are waiting for their school bus.
In the city of Amsterdam, there was a girl named Alyssa who is 17 years old. She has blue eyes and long hair in the shade of orange. She is so excited to start her high school. Getting ready for the first day of school is stressful and exciting at the same time.
Her mom was constantly calling her and her brother from downstairs to have their breakfast. “Allysa, Ben, come down to have your breakfast, kids. It’s almost time for school.”
Allysa replied, “Coming.” She went to her brother’s room, gave him a hit on the head, and dragged him downstairs with her for breakfast.
“Morning, mom! Wow! Pancakes and milkshake, my favorite!” said Ben. They sat down for breakfast and started eating. While having breakfast, Allysa got a call from her childhood best friend, “Mariam.” “Hey buddy, what’s up?” Mariam replied, “Idiot, I am waiting for you at the door. Come fast! It’s almost too late, you sleepyhead!”
Allysa said bye to her mom and took a pancake with her before going out to get in the car. “Hey, excited for high school?” “Yeah, dude!” giggled Allysa.
The car engine started, and Mariam drove to school. As they got down from the car, their eyes started to search for their friends on the school pathway in and around. Suddenly, Allysa called, ‘Shana,’ Michelle. They saw her and waved at them.
They all hugged each other and started to share their vacation stories. As the vacation stories continued, suddenly they heard the school bell ring. They had to get back to their classes. Mariam and Allysa are in the same class, while Shana and Michelle are in a different class.
Mariam and Allysa took their biology notes from their locker, while Shana and Michelle started to go to their history class. As Mariam and Allysa entered their biology class, the class was filled with new faces, who were all unfamiliar to them. They sat in the middle bench. The teacher started class on the chapter of flowering plants. They had to dissect the flowers of hibiscus and their parts.
First , the sir dissected the flower and then the students should dissect the flower on their own. Mariam and Allysa are talking and teasing each other during class hour.
Suddenly, the teacher shouted silence, which made both of them leave in shock due to the sudden high-pitched noise from the teacher and his sharp eyes piercing through their souls.
They stopped their chatting and started to dissect, but with giggling inaudible to each other.Suddenly, Mariam felt a strange feeling from outside and had an urge to look back.Mariam looks back.
There was a girl named Lily who had black eyes and medium hair length in the shade of black with a burgundy streak in it.
