Dora's POV

"Mum, why do you insist on changing my school? I wasn't the girl bullied. It wasn't even someone from my class. Mum why?"

"Dora please stop questioning me. I choose what dress you wear, what food you eat, where you sit and sleep as well as where to educate you. Didn't you read about yesterday's incidence? I fear for you. You are my life. I won't wait till you are the next victim. we need to curb that act of bully among you students before its too late. But before then, I need to change your school." Susan, my mum exclaimed.

I didn't have anything to say or do about this matter again. I had to keep quiet for her to do what she desires to. This is all that has been going on throughout my life as a kid. There was and is no father figure in my nuclear family and this has made my mum my everything. She is very strict and disciplined. Her main motive is to bring me up on the right path.

Alex who is a gang leader in my school bullied one of the girls in the higher class, Victoria. Her parents didn't take it lightly at all. The news is all over all social media platforms with videos and pictures. This is the reason why my mum is more worried about me leaving the school as soon as possible. I don't blame her. I love her so much.

I always wonder where Dad is. I remember mum telling me dad has travelled and does not know when he will be back in our lives. She keeps telling me "dad loves you so much. Do not hate him".

----------------------------

"Dora! Dora!! Dora!!!!"

"Mum. Let me sleep five minutes more please! " I begged my Mum.

"Its time for school. Take a shower and come downstairs for your breakfast or I will come there to drag you down myself".

I didn't have any choice but to do as she said.

I went down the stairs after showering and had breakfast of fresh orange juice and waffle with scrambled egg.

Mum is taking me to school today since it's my first day in that school, Trinity High School.

We arrived at the school at exactly 7am in the morning. Its not a long drive from our home.

We went to see the Dean of students.

I saw students in groups looking at me bluntly.

" why are these people looking at me in this manner? Am I a fallen Angel they haven't seen before? "

I put my face down to the ground whilst walking to avoid any eye contact with the students.

I caught the pair of eyes of this particular guy still looking at me. I became nervous. Why is he looking at me like that. Does he know me from anywhere?

We finally got to meet the principal of this famous Trinity High School, Mr. Clark. After my admission, Mum left. I was shown to a class which will be my class for this academic year. Am I dreaming? This guy is here again. I learnt later on his name is Thompson Jones. My God, Thompson is so hot dark skinned and tall with a nicely cut hair.

'Dora, you are here to learn'. I cautioned myself before I faint. I found myself a seat to get ready for the next lesson. I miss my previous school but I love this school as well. My mum wants the best for me and I can't complain. I have to adapt to my new environment. I left to my locker after the close of the day. My name was mentioned behind. I turned my head to find the caller and I saw this beautiful girl who introduced herself as Chloe.

"Nice meeting you Chloe" I extended my hand for a handshake. I picked my bag pack and lunch box leaving for the house. I need to catch the bus since my house is just 15 minutes away, my Mum wouldn't bother picking me up. I am not a Mummy's girl though I'm her life. She is caught up in her works by now. She is so hardworking always making sure that she does the right thing. I claimed I want to venture into business when I'm of age but want to be my own boss. Mum always inspires me to do what my heart tells me to do as far as it will generate a lot of benefit and good impactful results.

Not long after getting to the station, I saw a nice cute car passing by and it contained my first sight crush. He also kept his eyes on me till we couldn't see each other anymore. I felt my heart beating so hard whilst looking at him.

Chloe also joined me at the station to catch a bus as well. "I saw you both watching each other. Do you guys have anything in common or you are just flirting around." Chloe spat those words on me immediately she got there. I pretended I didn't hear that and this got her to change the topic very fast. I really felt shy when she said that though. The bus pulled up and we went on board. I alighted when I got to the street and left Chloe in the bus after saying our goodbyes.

I think going to school and coming back by the school bus would have been better. I will suggest that to mum when she comes back home from work. I walked home smiling. I was just imagining being friends with Thompson. He is a nice guy. i asked myself if he is also interested in being my friend? Why not since he was looking me anytime my eyes catches his.

We will meet in school the next day. I will approach him and start a conversation with him.
