Chapter 1

I woke up to the sound of my alarm. I opened my eyes and checked the time. The clock showed 8 in the morning.

"Oh shit." I sat up on my bed.

"I am late again."

I ran into my bathroom and got ready for my college. After getting ready, I went downstairs to have breakfast. I saw my father reading a newspaper and drinking his tea. My mother was talking to my uncle.

"Good morning." I greeted them.

My uncle smiled and said "Again, you are late Mayra." I sighed. "Yeah."

"Mayra." My mother called. "Come. Have your breakfast. Or you will be late for college."

I sat at the dining table and my mother served me breakfast. It was pasta and looked delicious. I immediately dug in. With my mouth full, I said "Thank you, Mom'. It's delicious." She smiled.

"Dad" I called. He looked up from the newspaper.

" Yes, princess." I smiled. My dad always calls me princess.

"I don't want to go to college by cycle today. Also I have my ballet class at 7 this evening. Will you drop me, please?"

"OK, my princess. I will drop you today." He said.

I finished my breakfast and grabbed my bag. When I was near the door, my uncle called me. "Mayra, I will pick you up from college. OK?" I said OK and went to college with my dad.

Last bell rang, and our class was over. Before we left the class, our professor remind us that we had one hour extra laboratory class today. I checked my watch, it was 4 o'clock. I took out my phone from my bag and called my uncle. He didn't pick up. It went to his voicemail, so I left the message. "Uncle, I have extra laboratory class today up to 5 o'clock."

I sighed. 'Why do they keep extra classes.' I kept my phone in the bag and went to my laboratory class.
