The new girl
The New girl
Trinity POV
I'm always the new girl every season, partly my fault partly not
I've been in and out of three schools across the state, and been expelled from two, you don't need to know the rest. So here I am in the parking lot at Empire state College wishing the building wasn't so blindingly captivating that you wished there was a dimmer switch on it
All around, I could see girls snickering and walking around me but at this point, I was beyond caring. I was made to understand that if I got kicked out of this school, it was off to some boarding school in England and maybe that would be the end of me , that's if, well, I survive this school.
It had been brought to my notice time and time again that I was a very stubborn child and the most difficult of my parents. I wonder if I do that on purpose or people just always seem to get on my b***h list, doesn't really matter because when you're told from age eight that you were unwanted, it doesn't really matter who lives or dies
Anyway, I feel I'm starting to bore you do let's get to the gist of Empire state College
As I said earlier, the building was incredibly captivating that it made you itch to wear shades. Anyway, I wouldn't expect any less from the most prestigious high school in Manila
Not that I was poor or anything, but you would know the kind of beauty o was talking about even if you were like me, exposed to all the good things of life right from childhood. I was what you may or may not call, privileged, wealthy parents, equally wealthy siblings and a life time supply of anything but love which is definitely fine with me, I never believed in love anyway. It is a waste of time and too emotionally exhausting. Not my kind of thing
As I was saying about ESC (I'll just call it that cus nobody has time to say Empire state College every time), standing in front of the dean , save sized me up like a seasoned food critic before giving a satisfied sigh and nodding to my father who had his heart in his mouth, scared if I would be accepted into the school. He practically fell over himself in gratitude promising the dean that she would not regret accepting me here. Yeah, big mistake dad
'Well Mr Scott, I see that your daughter has a record of violence but not to worry, here at ESC, we train girls into respectable young ladies of the society, you can thank me later'
The accented voice of the dean woke me from my snooze
'You may leave now, Sir. Guardians are not allowed past this point
My dad first looked at the dean then back at me before pulling me into a tight hug which was definitely for show because the moment he was sure no one could hear him, he whispered in my ears,"Don't screw this up Trinity"
I looked at him, my eyes slightly wet then nodded softly. God, I thought I was over this
He smiled sadly and left the room, the dean looked at me and said sweetly, more sweetly than I thought was possible and said, "I'll show you to your dorm personally dear, I'm not an enemy" before walking off, with me trailing her
Weird though, I thought dean's were meant to be rude and snooty, this feels different
"Come in Trinity, we don't have all day" she said, waking me up again and I ran off in her direction keeping up step by step
Bring it on ESC
