Chapter 2: Fresh start

 We stayed there for some days, which helped me to think positively and reflect on myself. Soon we moved to New York, and stayed it a hotel for two days. Because mom hadn't rented an apartment yet.

 After staying in the hotel, we moved into a three-bedroom flat where the sitting room was stuffed with dust and cobwebs. It's probably been a long time since someone moved in here.

      We moved all our bags in and layed on the floor. "All we need now is the furnishings.". Mom said as she winked at me.

 "We have to start looking for a school for you to attend now." she continued. "Yeah, and it sucks. I can't believe I have to attend a new school with different teaching methods." I stood up. "Trust me honey, the same applies to me." she said. " I have to start looking for a new job. But everything is going to be alright, so you don't have to worry. All you have to do is give me those straight A's." she said.

NEXT MONDAY

**

 I walked down the halls staring at anything that I can pay my attention to. The halls were filled with nonchalant teenagers who dressed like they were going for the Met Gala, or they were celebrities.

They stared at me probably laughing and snickering about my dresses or how I look, but I didn't even care.

 I walked into the principal's office where I met a lady on her seat facing the huge portrait in front of her.

When she turned around I realized that she was staring at herself that was literally in a painting. I can already know how her attitude is going to be like.

  "Name?" sh took a pen and a book. "Ma'am? I don't understand." I sat down and looked at her.

 "Don't you understand simple English? I meant your name. I am asking for your name." She said as I soon realized what she meant. “Samantha” I replied." Samantha Green."

"Welcome to Beverly High, not Beverly Hills. People often seems to mix it up." she smiled and shook my hand.

I was informed that this morning I am supposed to have Chemistry.

I walked into the class as all eyes were on me. I walked to an empty seat at the last row and sat down. Soon a teacher came in, I think he was Mr Rogers our homeroom teacher.

"Good day everyone." He said as he brought out a gigantic journal from his bag. “Good morning sir, how's your wife?” I heard from a guy who sat beside me chewing gum. “She is good and you don't need to ask all the time.” he replied.

"Come on man, you know I'm the right guy for her."

“First, you do not refer to me as (man), second, shut up."

Soon he started calling the register. "We have a new member in our midst today. She recently moved here. I hope you guys can display positive feeling towards her.” with that he walked out of the class as I sat there looking at the ground.
