Chapter 1

Today has been a long day I thought as I got off the subway to head to my apartment I get to the door of my apartment complex as I stepped inside the cool air feels good my roommates Anna and crystal are talking "hey! Serena how was your day to day" anna says as I walk up to them "tiring" I say with a chuckle "didn't you have two exams today" crystal says with a laugh " yes and it was very exhausting, I can't wait until this last exam is over" I say sighing. as I leave anna and crystal to there continue there conversation is about their soulmates I go up the stairs to my apartment as I head up the stairs I see a couple of police officers coming down the stairs. "They look a little lost," I think as I walk up the stairs to them. "Hello officers are you looking for someone in particular," I say "yes ma'am we're looking for serene" one of the officers says "um I'm serene, how may I help you, officers," I say a bit confused as to why the police are looking for me, a college student with a squeaky clean record "your mother is very ill," one of the officers says with that sympathetic look. I look at the officers with a confused look and sigh "my mom is always saying those things, officers" I say a bit annoyed "I know this may be hard to take in miss serene but your mother is in the hospital with lung cancer" the other officer says with sadness in his voice "ok ok, but I can't go anywhere till my last exam tomorrow and I will have to pack my things so I won't be able to be there until next week" I say as I unlock my apartment door "Have a good rest of your day officers" I say as I close the door. "Why do you have to be like this mom ever since you're supposed soulmate left you for another woman you've been self-diagnosing yourself with all sorts of things that you don't have and it's starting to get annoying but I can't blame you on that in my opinion soulmates don't exist so I don't see why you have to act like this there are plenty of other fish in the sea I just leave my soulmate to do whatever he wants I just blatantly refused everything he asks says or wants to give me geez mom when will you ever realize soulmates don't exist" I sigh as think about my mom and the whole ideology that soulmate exists

I laid down on my bed thinking about mom and wonder if she is ok, but as soon as I'm about to fall asleep my supposed to be soulmate starts blowing up my SG or soulmate gift Yeah remember when I said you can accept or decline your soulmates gifts, questions or orders well that's what everyone calls the SG and for someone who doesn't believe in soulmates I hate the stupid SG. I pick up my SG and look at the screen " your soulmate sent you $500" "accept" "decline" this fucker doesn't know how to take no as an answer I grumble as I press decline on my SG. *sigh* I wish this idiot would take a hint and stop sending me crap *ding* damn it leave me alone, I pick up my SG and immediately decline without even looking at what this childish fool wants to send me. As I fall asleep one question remains, who is my father...

-beep, beep, beep- I open my eyes and yawn it's morning already, damn I barely got any sleep last night I think as I hit my alarm clock -knock, knock- come in "hey Serena the headmaster called and said to pack your stuff" Anna says as she walks into my room. "What, why," I say extremely shocked "duno he just said you need to take care of your family"
