(I hugged my worn out jacket to my skinny and frail body as I sauntered through the hallway of "Vienwood Highschool". I had surprisingly escaped from my step dad's wrath after I prepared his breakfast and placed it in the fridge.)
(I make a beeline to my locker, which was on the third floor. Vienwood Highschool was a public school in the heart of Toronto, Canada. It was apparently my first day of school.....and any normal teenager would be excited to make new friends, but guess what...I'm nothing near "Normal").

(Wait...what?. Why on Earth am I the subject of discussion in this school.....I just got here, it has barely been an hour....or two.)
"Yeah...I just got here" I eye her warily....she seems a bit sly. here…
