chapter: 3 part I

The alarm clock woke me up then i realised, it's my first day in a new school. Sure it's still the first semester but i don't wanna be late for it. I jumped out of bed and quickly took a bath. Then i went down stairs and ate my breakfast. Mom and Dad already left for work while my sister and my brother were probably taking a bath. I finished my breakfast and glanced at the clock, it was 7.40am. "If i hurry i might make it in time," i thought to myself.

As i ran to school i kept thinking "Will there be ghosts in the school?" That question got stuck in my head. I want to be normal in this school. Ever since i told my friends in my old elementary school that i can see ghosts, they think i'm nuts, a weirdo. So i've decided that i have to act normal, i have to pretend that i can't see ghosts.

I arrived at school 10 minutes before the bell rang and quickly went to the teacher's office. After the bell rang i followed the teacher -who i guess was the homeroom teacher- Mrs. Kinsley. From the teacher's office i didn't see any ghosts and i felt relieved and thought that there aren't any ghosts in this school. But when we arrived at the classroom, all my relieved feelings went away with the sight of ghosts flying around the room. While Mrs. Kinsley introduced me i felt nervous. The palm of my hand was very sweaty and i couldn't focus.


"Ms. Grogan, your seat is right there," she said while pointing at the empty seat behind "right behind Connor Smith."
I walked to my seat and saw Connor.
"Hey, i'm Brooke," said a girl with blonde wavy hair "nice to meet you." she said with a smile on her face.
"Nice to meet you too," i smiled back at her.

Mrs. Kinsley suddenly left the room cause she was called out by someone.
"Hey Aria, if you need a tour around school just ask me," Brooke said with an anthustiastic voice.
"Sure that'll be nice, thanks." i said to her.
"That's Connor," she pointed at Connor.
"We already met Brooke, she's my neighbour," Connor said and glance at me.
"Oh," she said "really? I didn't know that. By the way, that's Owen." Brooke said while pointing at the boy sitting next to her.
"Hello there," the boy said to me with a gentle voice
"The three of us have been friends since the third grade." Brooke explained to me.
"The bell rang and we can go home since it's still the first day of school. I asked Brooke to show me around school and she said yes. We went to the cafeteria, the field and plenty of other classes. Each place has a ghost in it. The worst place is the auditorium. Ghosts were walking around without a care and it gave me goosebumps. Not long after that we went home together.

I met Ruben on the way home and walked home together. I went to my room and listened to my iPod while doodling. I like doodling, it's my hobby since i was a kid.
"Nice drawing," said a little girl right next to my bed. Her short blonde hair suit her face. I was shocked. I was also speechless.
