Ain't Your Regular Girlfriend

Monday mornings can bring on a serious case of sadness as you wave goodbye to the weekend and begin to think about what lies ahead over the next five days. But To me, this Monday morning is the perfect day for a fresh start. A day for me to forget about yesterday and focus more on this day, minutes and not miss anything.

My Fresh start ain't 'bout starting wholly afresh but there are things which I wouldn't like to include in my today's list. I looked out of the window, taking in the beautiful views as the car moves past people on the street.

Brighton High is a little far from home, but this unexpected long drive is now giving me stinge feelings at the pit of my stomach. If it were to be me driving, it won't take up to 20 minutes to arrive there regardless of the traffics but now it wasn't me, and the driver which is Magritte was making this whole drive to be a prolonged unending drive.

I don't like schools to be closer to our house because, when schools are close to your house, that would be the perfect reason for teachers to always go straight to report on you instead of phone calls. Me? My previous school had it rough when I was there.  That was why I accepted to study here after many flips and researches. I finally chose the best among all like dad would say. 

I heavied a long sigh as Magritte finally parked inside the big school "Lara, call me when you're done". Magritte smile as she hands over my backpack.

"For what?" I asked her confused, not sure what she meant by that.

"To come pick you up? After lesson". She smiled again... With her eyes raised. One thing about Magritte was her beautiful smiles, she isn't the kind that always gets triggered over stuff like Becca's nanny, Lauren who used to wipe her youngest sisters when everybody was away.

"Nah! Don't, will find my way home". I waved at her walking away.

"Lara?". She called. I turned to her

"Don't worry Miss". I said waving for her to go already. She should have figured The reason I asked her to drive me to school was for her to drive the car back home so I could take the bus with Clara. This will also be my first time using a school bus for the first time in my life.
