Amara
"Amah, amah, amah", the voice of my mother echoed as she called me from the empty garage, our driver had driven the car outside the gate, I was lost in thought remembering what happened in my room the day before today;"is it that I have super powers, are My parents aware of this, if yes, why didn't they tell me, who am I?, "Amah", yes mum, I answered as she called the fourth time; Almost stripped off my foot while running through the stairs, "what have you been doing?, what kept you so long?" she asked with an angry voice," I'm sorry mum", "you kept me in the car for too long, I came out here calling you and you didn't answer, is like you are turning into something else", I didn't speak, just nodded my head and followed her to the car
I was lost in thought in the car, I didn't realize my mom had been staring at me, "Amah, what is it" "yes mum", I responded, but not to her question ;" what is it, are you sure you are okay "," yes mum I'm fine " " hmmmm, you seems odd since today, this is unlike you, what is the problem, u know I'm your mother, u can confide in me" " okay mum, nothing is wrong with me, I'm okay" I replied and smiled as I looked out the window, hoping she would let me be, but seems that didn't work out, "is it about your new school, I know it's not easy to make new friends but trust me you will find better friends here" I didn't say a word, I just looked at her and smiled.
As I was about to ask her about the school the driver horned, an old man came to open the school gate, I start to wonder why a man as old as that will be still working, but my thought was distracted by my mother, ahhh mothers and anger"look at you, can you move your hands and pack those bags from the car, is this the first impression you are giving your new school ...... "she was just talking, but I didn't respond in or to ignite her anger, after packing my bags from the car, we went to the principal office.
when my mum met the principal, they exchanged pleasantries as though they knew each other and told me to sit in a seat a bit further from where they are, I tried to listen to when they were discussing but to no avail, so my mind drifted to my current situations, my discovery of my super natural power, if not powers I don't know if more are yet to come, and my school, at this point I don't know what I was thinking about any more
"Amah", my mum called my attention, I looked at her and smiled, so she won't notice any I have been thinking, "if u need anything make sure u tell your assigned guardian, be a good girl and try to avoid trouble,you know this is a boarding school"," okay mum",I said and smiled, she hugged me, then went outside
I looked through the window as my mum entered the car and the driver drove off, that was when it dawned on me that I was actually missing my mum, "ohh, so soon", I thought I'm too young to live without her; So many thoughts running through my head,I felt like crying; I knew it won't be easy for me in this school, because I have heard so many negative stories about boarding school.
