The School
Through out the drive to my new school, my new life. I was filled with dread, would I ever see Tae or my parents again. I wondered what my new life would be like. ¨Umm, excuse me, ¨ I asked the driver, ¨When will we be there, at the school.¨ He looked at me, and said ¨We will be arriving shortly.¨ I nodded and looked at the window and watched the countryside pass by. A few minutes later I saw a large red brick building with large windows, and kids racing around outside. There were 4 banners hanging on the front of the building, there were 2 on each side. They were each a different color, blue, red, purple, and white. ¨Here we are miss,¨ the driver said looking at me ¨Enjoy, your new life miss.¨ He came around and opened the door for me. ¨Thanks. ¨ I said and started walking up the gravel pathway. I look closer at the banners each one had a symbol. The white one has a cloud on it, the blue one has a wave, the purple one had a brain surrounded by strange symbols, the red one had a flame. I took a deep breath and walked through the big dark wooden doors. As I entered the building I was overwhelmed with the hieght of the ceilling, it was so tall it seemed as if it was the sky. The huge windows let bright sunlight slant across the floor. I saw a group of kids looking at me and whispering. Then, a girl from the group approuched me with her neon pink hair and red eyes that seemed to glow. ¨Hello, I´m Chloe. You must be new here. Follow me I´ll take you to Madame Rose, the headmistress.¨ She seemed sweet, but I didn´t trust her. ¨Okay, I´ll follow you then.¨ I said gesturing for her to lead. She started walking down the long hallway and I timidly followed her. ¨So what´s your name?¨ She asked glancing over her shoulder. ¨It´s Zoe.¨ She took a turn down another long corridor. ¨Here we are,¨ She said. I knocked on the door. ¨One moment please,¨ a voice said inside the room. The door opened and a middle-aged lady with black hair streaked with silver. She wore a old fashioned black dress. ¨Hello, you must be Zoe, comeon in we´ll get you your schedule and explain how things work here.¨ I nodded ¨Okay,¨ and I stepped inside her office. She closed the door behind me. ¨Okay let me see,¨ The headmaster said, ¨Your roomate will be Andy until we determine your house. You have the same schedule as her, so just stick with her. I will have her give you a tour later.¨ She smiled at me. ¨Okay, I´m sorry but I didn´t catch your name.¨ She gave me a smile. ¨It´s Madame Rose, Andy is on her way. Enjoy your day.¨ I nodded and gave her a small smile. We heard a knock on the door. ¨Come on in Andy.¨ Madame Rose said. The knocking stopped and the door opened. A girl with dirty blond hair and eyes such a light red they were almost pink stepped inside. She was wearing black leggings and a white crop top. ¨Hi, I´m Andy, you must be the new kid.¨ She said with a smile. ¨I´m Zoe,¨ I said. ¨Follow me, I´ll show to our room,¨ she said. ¨Ok lead the way,¨ I said gesturing towards the door.
