On the way back to class, Pearl and I had a short talk. We may come to school together and be in the same class but we ain't that close. The reason behind that is maybe 'cause we seldom hang out with each other or is 'cause we seldom talk to each other.
The bell rang sharp at 7.20am. Mrs Yene- pronounce as 'Yin', came into class for English lesson. Yes, the first lesson for Tuesday is English. Mrs Yene's English class can be boring and fun at times. But surprisingly today her mood was as if she won a lottery. Which makes English lessons fun. If not, an hour of English lesson can be death.
No, no, not death. I was being too dramatic, I would just be bored and sleepy. After English lesson is Add Maths class. And this time, it's 2 hours of lesson by Mr Martin. Add Maths is tough but it's interesting at the same time. And 2 hours of boringness. Mr Martin gives us work and then goes to sleep. And somehow, the whole class keeps quiet and finish up his work and lets him sleep in peace. While, Mr Martin will only wake up sharp after 2 hours. It's like he has an alarm clock in his head.
Lucky, it's recess after 3 hours of class. I walked out alone from class heading to the canteen, hoping to see Mindy. Before arriving the canteen, I stop by my locker to drop and pick up some books. It's History and Maths lesson later.
After picking up my bags and putting them into my bag, I head straight to the canteen. And I saw Mindy walking to the canteen with her friends.
"Hi Mindy!" I said with a big smile on my face, "How was class?" I add on.
"Hi Evee. Class was normal. Teachers are giving homeworks like crazy. I think they didn't win any lottery. How sad. How was yours?" said Mindy in an exhausted look on her face.
"Oh I see. Mine was boring. Definitely boring. Mr Martin sleeps in class and my friends does his work quietly.. No one bothers to chit chat."
"Pity you. Looks like we haven't had a good time in school. Oh well, gotta catch up with my other friends. Bye Evee. Text you when I get home later alright?" Mindy walked off.
Great. Now I'm gonna eat alone huh? Looks like it.
Chapter 1- #2
Oh great, I fell asleep last night and I'm late for school. I hurriedly get up from the bed and rush to the toilet to wash up. Looks like I've got no time to bathe.
After bathing, washing up and gotten ready, I ran downstairs to check for breakfast. As usual, my mum didn't prepare breakfast. Caramel came running down the stairs. I bet she's also late.
"Good morning, Evee. Where's mum?
Caramel doesn't like calling me 'sis', she prefers calling me Evee, like the rest of the people.
"Good morning Caramel. I don't know. Isn't she upstairs?" I said.
"Oh great. Mum's gonna be back late tonight, Caramel." I told her while looking at my Esprit watch.
"What? Why?"
"What you mean by what and why? That's what she wrote! It's okay, Caramel. Just go out with your friends or something. But remember, don't came back later than 8 o'clock, okay?" Sternly telling her.
Caramel nods her head and walk towards the house door. She picked up her white flats and wore them.
It's 7.00 am already, where's Pearl?
Pearl stays near by us and she is my classmate.
I walked over to the house door with my sister leaning against the door and put my feet into my pink converse shoe.
I heard a honk. And yes, Pearl's here. Caramel entered the car while I close the door and lock everything up and then entered the car.
"Hi aunty. Hi Pearl. Sorry we were a bit late this morning." Caramel and I greeted with a smile.
Pearl and her mum replied our greeting, "It's okay you two. Pearl and I were late also." said Pearl's mum and drove off to school. School is quite near to our place I can say. It only takes us around 5 minutes to reach school from my house.
We reached school around 7.09 am according to my watch. Caramel and I thanked and said bye to Pearl's mum and got down.
My sister saw her friends and walked off while I wait for Pearl to get down from the car. Pearl and I walked straight up to class.
After bathing, washing up and gotten ready, I ran downstairs to check for breakfast. As usual, my mum didn't prepare breakfast. Caramel came running down the stairs. I bet she's also late.

"Good morning Caramel. I don't know. Isn't she upstairs?" I said.
She shook her head and point at my direction. I turned my head behind and I saw a note on the refrigerator. I walk towards the refrigerator and picked up the note.
Girls, I'm out early today. I've got a lot of work to do in the office. Will be back late. I didn't prepare breakfast but there some cash on the table. Take care.
love,
Mum.

Chapter 1- #1
Another ordinary night-I can see the round full moon through my window. Looking at the moon makes my head flicker and wonders away. I'm missing the times I used to have with my best friends. Clover, Renee and Jojo are the onces who were always there for me when I needed them, but, things have changed this year. We are still in the same country, studying in the same school but in different classes. Although once in a while I believe that strong relationship will always remain no matter where, what, how or when. Or maybe some times I think that I'm just being too naive?
"Evelyn! Evelyn, are you dreaming again?"
Oh, so that was my mum nudging me.
"No mum. I'm not. I've got something on my mind regarding homework. Don't worry, okay?"
"Okay Evee dear. I just want to tell you that I've got a date tonight with some of my old friends. Take care of Caramel, baby. Love you Evee."
And so, my mum shuts my room door gently and walks away-I can hear her foot steps fading away. Yes. My mum loves calling me Evee. Well, not her alone, most people loves calling me that.
Caramel is my younger sister and she can be annoying. Which most times, I dislike baby-sitting her.
But since my mum is mostly busy with work and all, I have no choice but to take care and baby-sit her.
Suddenly I heard a buzz. Oh, it's from my phone. Who could it be? I moved from my chair to my bed to pick up my phone. It's a text message from my babe, Mindy. She is my senior and she is like an elder sister to me. Mindy is the one who cheers me up when I'm down, who cares for me 24/7 and the one who I can be myself when I'm with her. Even though we just met each other this year, it felt like I'd known her for ages.
After reading her message, I replied her and lied on the bed and started thinking all over.
I have a lot on my mind lately, like seriously. Without having second thought, I dozed off without realizing.
