The Lost Mafia Princess

Chapter 2

Amelia POV

I walked to the principal's office with shaking hands wondering why I was called. When I got seated in her office she told me that I was part of an exchange student program and that I will be going to America to complete the rest of the semester(this is the first semester). I was speechless as she told that she had informed the manager at the orphanage and that I was leaving on Friday. I left her office feeling shocked but I couldn't waste processing this because I was getting late to work.

It was around 8:30pm when I got back to the orphanage and the manager called me into her office. She told me that I must be on my best behavior when I'm with my host family and that I shouldn't say anything about how I'm being treated here or she will kick me out. I nodded then she gave me a suitcase and told me to start packing. I went to my room which was the basement and started to pack that little belongings I had. I needed to buy more things so I won't be questioned, with that in mind I drifted off into a dreamless sleep.

I went through my usual morning routine and was in my way to school. I was clearing my locker when Clarissa and her friends came over. She said,"I can't believe we won't be seeing you for a whole semester. We are really going to miss you but before you go I have a gift for you." Then her friends picked me up and took me to the restroom and they started beating me making sure not to hit my face and when they were done they dunked my face in the toilet and left cackling.

The last bell rang and I could not have been happier. I made my way to the thrift store so I could get some more clothes.

I went back to the orphanage a packed my remaining stuff and went to bed. The next day I went to school to get all the information and necessary documents I needed then the principal drove me to the airport and I was off to American uncertain of what life had in-store for me.
