The new girl
I'm Serena. Yeah, not the Serena from Gossip Girl or some glamorous icon, just your run-of-the-mill new girl with a knack for blending into the background. The picturesque coastal town might seem like a dream, but I've got more storms brewing inside me than this tranquil place can handle.
Walking into this new school feels like stepping onto a stage I never auditioned for. Great, another day, another place where I'm expected to play the part of the 'perfect newcomer.' Grace, intelligence, the whole shebang—it's the façade I've perfected to shield the chaos brewing beneath the surface.
The sun's rays glisten off the ocean, people chatter with excitement, and me? I'm just here, trying to navigate through this sea of strangers while carrying the weight of my own little apocalypse. The name Serena might fit this place, but it's just a name. Doesn't change the fact that I'm drowning in a whirlpool of inner turmoil.
"Hey, you're Serena, right? Welcome to Mil High!" Cue the overly enthusiastic welcome committee. I smile, nod, but inside, I'm counting down the minutes until I can retreat into the solitude of my thoughts again. Another day, another chance to be the girl who's got it all together. If only they knew the chaos inside my head.
The bell rings, and the classroom becomes my temporary sanctuary. Lectures drone on, but my mind? It's doing its own marathon, sprinting through the messy landscape of my thoughts.
This place might be all sunshine and seaside breeze, but me? I'm just another cloud in the sky, floating amidst the blue, hiding a storm within. They call it picturesque; I call it a new setting for my inner turmoil.
But hey, let's play the game, right? Put on the mask, blend in, pretend to be just another face in the crowd. Because in a town named Frida , where perfection is the standard, I'm just another newcomer trying not to make waves. Little do they know, Serena's just a name I wear but why do these munchkins look so tempting. One came right over to introduce himself as he was in some kind of serial it was funny but I had to be polite , this scene looked straight out of a teenage romance book.
