FIRST DAY IN SCHOOL
Episode 1
It was 4am in the morning.
Elena spring up from her mat, she rub her hair backwards.
She is used to waking up early in the morning, it is now her daily routine.
Although she don't have a phone or a clock to check on time but by the chipping of the birds on the tree she will know, a tradition her mother taught her.
She couldn't afford to have a phone or a clock, she was to poor to buy one.
She stood up from where she has slept and roll the mat up, keeping it beside the wall.
Today Elena is full of happiness and excitement.
That because she luckily got a scholarship in Green hill high school.
Green hill high school is one of the most richest and beautiful school in the country that only the rich goes.
Elena walked outside the house and met her mother lightning up fire on a wood.
Elena sneakily walk towards her and hug her back from behind.
"Good morning! sweet mom" She greeted.
"You are already awake, seems you are ready to go to your new school" Her Mom laughed.
"Yeah! what are you doing?"
"Boiling water for you"
"Aww thanks mom, I love you so much"
"I love you too my little princess"
"Maybe you should should start preparing,
remember your new school is far from here"
"Your right mom, but where is aunt?" Elena asked.
"Oh your aunty went to the market, she will be back soon"
"Okay"
GREEN HILL HIGH SCHOOL
It took Elena an hour walk to finally reach her destination.
"So this is it" Elena said looking at the big black gate of Green hill high school.
She saw many flashy cars pass her and enter into the school.
Some of them were pointing hand at her and was laughing.
Of course, she dressed so local far from what the rich kids dresses.
"I can't believe that i am going to the best school ever .." Elena thought almost jumping up in excitement.
She felt closer in achieving her dreams.
Elena walked towards the school gate.
"Stop right there!"
Just when she was about to cross the gate, one of the security men stopped her.
"Who are you? and what are you doing here?" He asked looking at her with stern look.
"Am here for a scholarship" Elena replied.
"Okay you can go"
"Thanks, please can you tell me me where the principal office is located"
...
Elena breath in and out before knocking on the door in front of her.
"Come in!" A voice said from other side.
Elena opened the door to the principal office and walked in.
"Good morning ma" She greeted staring at a woman who writing down something on her table.
"Good morning" She replied looking at her.
"Am here for the scholarship" Elena explained.
"Scholarship?" the woman asked looking at Elena with disguise.
"Yes ma" Elena nodded.
"I think you are mistaken, I mean someone like can't possibly get a scholarship not even think of staying in this school.
am sorry it's impossible for someone like you.
maybe you should just go home" She said coldly not bothering looking at her.
"But I have the scholarship certificate.." Elena hurriedly said, showing the woman her certificate.
"I don't care"
"please ma check it first" Elena pleaded.
The woman sighed, she just wanted Elena to leave her office.
"Okay fine, give it to me "
Elena hurriedly give her the certificate.
"Even do if it is awarded by the school, you are still leavin...." She saying when she suddenly stopped and looked at me with surprise.
"How do you get this signature?" She asked like she was shocked to find out about something.
"I don't know"
The woman look at it for some time before looking at Elena with a smile.
"Congratulations Elena Christian welcome to Green hill high school" She said giving her something.
Elena took it from her.
"That is your map to your class, class 99" she said smiling at her.
"Okay thanks."
Elena was surprised at the way she suddenly turned nice.
What is it with the signature?. she thought.
no wonder why the poor people can't attend this school.
The are so rude.
Although Elena never trusted her.
She walked out from her office, tracing the map to her class.
She was engrossed in the map that she didn't notice when she bumped into someone.
"Am so sorry" Elena quickly apologized.
"don't worry am fine" The girl replied.
Elena was surprised, she was expecting to be angry and rude.
I mean that's how the rich does.
"Hi am Emily, you seems to be new here" Emily introduced looking at her.
"Am Elena and yes I was looking for my class when I bump into you"
"Oh wow, what class?"
"Actually class 99"
Emily look at Elena with surprise.
"You chooseed it? " Emily asked.
"No I didn't" Elena replied wondering why she asked such question.
"You better change it because no girl goes to that class" Emily said and left.
Elena looked at her with surprise.
"What does she mean" Elena thought and continue looking for her class.
Finally after few minutes of searching, Elena found the class she was looking for which was written 99 on it.
immediately she walk into the class, things became different from what she imagined.
The chattering noise die down as everyone look at her.
When Elena looked around the class, all she saw was boys, not even a single girl was found.
Every boy was starring at her, like she just entered a lions den.
Did I enter the wrong class? or the wrong school?
TBC.
