Cassie P.O.V
Grrrrrhhhhhh... I sprang up from my bed, hitting my alarm with my hand, making it fall. I gasped and quickly climbed down from my bed. I picked it up and checked for any sign of it breaking. I heaved a sigh of relief to see that there was no scratch. Mom's sure gonna scold me if anything happens to my sixth alarm clock for this month. Lol, I know you're surprised at my carelessness, right? Well, I'm not an early morning person, so whenever i wake up to the annoying sound of my alarm, i just kinda vent my frustration on the poor thing.
I went to my closet, pulled on my pajamas and tied my white fluffy towel round my chest and got into my bathroom. I brushed my teeth, got into the shower and took my bath. I'm sure not gonna use a bathtub today. I don't wanna be late on my first day in school. I came out of the bathroom after drying my hair with the hair dryer, I dried my body with my towel, sat at the front of my dressing table, and applied a body lotion. Then I wore my underwear and my already-ironed uniform, which was a short purple flare skirt which was just above my knee and a white long sleeve which had the Lavender High School logo. Yeah, I'm gonna attend Lavender High. It is said to be the best school in the whole of America. I also heard that most of its students were very arrogant and spoiled. Well, they shouldn't cross my path cause imma gave em' a piece of me.
I wore my white socks and a black pair of shoes. I packed my hair into a ponytail, then applied a lip gloss, smiled at myself in the mirror and took my backpack and stepped out of my room.
I got to the sitting room, taking in the scent of the nice breakfast mom must have prepared, though we have a cook, but mom loves making breakfast. She says a good meal made by her in the morning will bring us good luck. I wonder how true it is. I saw my little sister Delaney already in the dining area. I'm not surprised anyway, she's only eight but eats like a seventeen-year-old boy. But with all the food she eats, she's still so slim.
'Good morning Cassie' she said with her tiny voice.
'Morning Laney, did you dream of your prince charming again?' I asked with a grin, as I sat down on a dining chair.
'Yeah, of course, I did. You know what?' She said, reducing her voice and leaning towards me, so my mom who was bringing in the food wouldn't hear her.
I chuckled and strained my ears and asked 'what did you two do this time '.
' We kissed.' She said in a hushed tone.
' What?! ' I chuckled.
' You better believe it' she said with a grin.
' Hmm, i see ' nodding my head and smiling.
' Cassie, how was your night?' Mom asked, as she grabbed a seat.
' It was great, until my stupid alarm woke me up' I said grumpily, taking a toasted bread into my mouth.
' Hope you didn't break it again?' She asked with a knowing look.
I shook my head negatively, grinning.
' Where's dad?' I asked.
' Here I am, princess ' I heard my dad say. I turned and saw him coming down the stairs, already dressed for office.
' Good morning, dad ' I greeted. '
' Morning, Cassie ' Dad said, taking a chair at the end of the table.
' Good morning, dad ' Laney said without raising her head with a mouthful of bread.
' And to our little eater ' Dad said, tickling her, making her laugh.
I glanced at my wristwatch and gasped 'Oh my! 'I'm almost late, I gotta go' i stood up as I drank from my cup of tea. I ran to the door and ran back to drink water, rinsing my mouth in the process. I ran back to the door. I heard my mom saying,
' She didn't even say goodbye '.
I went outside waiting for my driver to take my car from the garage. I got to school on time, thank goodness! I came out of my car after thanking my driver. I stood at the front of the big school gate.
Woah! The gate is definitely an expensive one. It looked really magnificent. I wonder how much was spent on it. I looked around and saw other students, obviously rich kids, some coming out of expensive cars driven by either their driver or themselves, some even came with bikes! You know what I mean by bikes. I went inside through the gate. My mouth dropped open at what I saw. Okay, I see why this school is regarded as the best. The school was so big, and it was painted purple and white. The way it was painted really brought out its beauty.
I took out my phone to check out the school map which I used to trace my way to my class. I got into a place which I guess is gonna be the hallway. I was about to take a bend when someone bumped into me, making my phone crash on the ground.
' Hey bitch! Can't you watch where you're going? ' I heard the idiot say.
