Twisted Perfections
Okay, so you might be wondering what we're running late for. Well, I'm starting a new school.
"Coming", I shouted from my room.
I looked into the mirror and smiled at myself I felt a little bit pleased with my appearance.
I'm a girl with low self esteem, sometimes I find myself somehow beautiful, other times I feel like the ugliest person in the world.
I packed my black hair into a pony tail. I was putting on a red gown that reached my thigh with a pair of blue denim jeans and a pair of blue sneakers.
Blue is my favourite colour, pink makes me sick.
Get over it!
I grabbed my school bag and jogged downstairs.

"Have a nice day honey. I love you", my mum said kissing my cheeks.
"Mum! I'm fifteen now", I said groaning.
"Whatever just have a good day", my mum said and then the driver zoomed off.
Typical mum.
"Wow, this school really is massive", I thought to myself as I entered the school compound.
The school is like times three my old school. Well my former school was when we were middle class people.
Not to brag but now I can say it without a doubt that my family is one rich class now all thanks to dad's new job.
I don't know if to say I'm happy or sad to have a life I've always dreamed of.
Going to fancy schools, amazing houses, trending devices, designer wears, maids and servant.. all of these cannot make up for my friends. I miss them so much.
"Good morning ma'am", I greeted the school receptionist.
Yeah, the school has one.
"Yeah morning. You're Zariah Thompson, right?"
"Yes ma", I replied.
"Glad to have you here. Welcome to Lockville High". I'm Hannah Pierce, she said with a welcoming smile.
"Thank you ma'am".
"I would have loved to give you a school tour but I'm pretty busy now so would you please wait for me?" She asked very politely.
"Okay, sure ma'am", I said giving her a small smile even though deep down, I was pretty disappointed.
I wanted to go to my class early to avoid unnecessary stares from people.
That happens to every newbie, right?
"Oh, wait", she said waving her hand to someone to come over.
"Ryan! Ryan!" She shouted.
"Yes Mrs Pierce", I heard a voice behind.
"You'll be giving Miss Zariah here a school tour".
"What? So that's my job now. Well, the last time I checked I was brought to this school to learn and not roam around with a newbie!" Ryan said rolling his eyes.
Ooohh... sass much, try this to any staff in my old school and you get suspended. Literally.
"Just do as I asked you too", Mrs Pierce strictly said.
"Can you please just shut up?! I don't care what your name is or anything about you! Just come with me!" He screamed at me.
Okay this is it Zariah.
Walk like a runway model and wave like Miss Universe.
Easier said than done.
As I entered the class, I met several eyes on me. My eyes met Ryan's. He looked surprised when he saw me with Asher.
