Our Love Srory
Chapter 1
Coco
It's my first day at Bookside high school since I moved from California to New Orleans . It's been two week of us moving here but I never saw myself moving to New Orleans but here I am standing at Bookside high with students who are ramming through to their new classes whilst some are gossiping with their friends. With few learners giving me stares about whose the new girl at Bookside and some just are just whispering about me . Well if they new how I got here it will just raise a lot questions right?
Months back mom and I lost a lot of things my dad,my car including my job . It was first dad cheating on mom with a younger woman . Since my mom was a stay at home who only had a high school diploma who never went to college after. He ended up settling divorce with mom and withdrawing my college fund without thinking that I'm starting varsity next year. He left without a care nore thinking of us how we are gonna survive. I spent days without going to work or school because I was depressed. We just needed a new fresh start and a different energy .
Just as I continued walking down the hallway I just felt stares of being the new kid becomes their new hot topic with their stares,until I reached the principals office just down the hallway as I reached the door of the office I managed to push the door bumping on a hard chest expecting to fall down but a hand gripped on my figure .As I was expecting to fall on the floor and expecting to feel pain when I didn't,I just opened my eyes I was met with the most gorgeous blue eyes ever . It was as if I'm drowning in his eyes and finding no help . Until I snapped out of it when I'm being stood up straight by him
Him : are you ok ?
Me : yes I'm okay I'm sorry for bumping on to you
Him : that's alright
Me : thanks for helping me
Him : sure I really hope to see you around
Me : me too
As I entered the principals òffice he just gave me an old boring welcome speech and told me about the school . As he walked me to my first class of the year .Which is history as my major for this whole year. When I reached the class with Mr baker the whole room became silent as he gave the whole class an introduction about me . When the classroom door opened I was met by eyes it was him the guy from earlier that I bumped into I just zoned out.
Mr baker : did you hear me right?
Me : sorry what did you say ?
Mr baker : I said I'm leaving you in the hands of Mr Robert
Me : thank you
Mr baker: sure then I will leave you to it Sir
Mr Robert : okay then
Mr baker : be nice students to her (he left after )
Mr Robert: will you give us an introduction
Me : hi I'm Harley Jones but call me Coco I just moved from carlifornia and I'm 17 turning 18 this year.
Student 1 : well you can tell that she is a hard Coconut
Student 2 : no wait Cocomelon
Everybody roared in laugh and Mr Robert came to my aid and defense
Mr Robert : well if you have a problem with her you can face the principal or me
The class just became silent and I went to sit at the back and continued with the lesson . That's how my first day went at Bookside high until after-school when I took the bus to my apartment. Where as I opened our door to the apartment I was met by the smell of pizza . As I dropped my bag to the floor and screaming for mom. As I screamed for mom and found her in the kitchen warming food.
Mom : hey honey [kissing my cheek]
Me : hey mom
Mom : how was your first day ?
As we sat through the living room couch
Me : it wasn't that bad Mom
Mom : no friends
Me : I haven't found any friends
Mom : it's been two weeks already
Me : nobody wants to be my friend
Mom : because you ain't going out more
Me : please not this conversation
Mom : okay take your time
Me : so what's for dinner today
Mom : pizza
Me : I thought we didn't have because we spent it on rent and house stuff
Mom : don't worry I got a job
Me : really how (I just screamed up and down)
Mom : well ms whoolberg told her boss about me turns out the boss had a friend whose looking for a maid .
Me : oh my God mom you know what that means
Mom : it means that things are getting better
Me :true when are you starting work
Mom : next week Monday
Me : where ?
Mom: I think Beverly hills and it might have me to stay in
Me : what oh he'll no (shocked )
Mom : listen it comes with a high salary
Me : what about me ?
Mom : your gonna be fine
Me : it can't be you leaving I need you more than ever
Mom : I will be just a next town honey
Me : but.....
Mom : honey it would be a great start
Me : what if you don't come back
Mom : I will don't worry
Me : how can I be not worried if you don't return (crying)
Mom : because I'm not your dad(wiping)you wanna know why
Me : (nodding)
Mom : because I know where are my priorities and it's you
I just cried my tears out in my moms arms that one afternoon and later we had pizza . We watched our favorite movies with ice cream the whole night. Wondering what Bookside high in store for me or rather carlifornia has in for us.
