A New Friend

Hello, I'm Emma. I'm 13 years old. Today is my first day in High school, well, technically this city. I recently shifted to New York because of my mother's job. I live with my Mother and younger brother. I lost my father by a car accident when I was barely 3 years old. 

I was waiting for my mother to drive me to school but I think she was still managing breakfast. And here we go The newbie and the late girl. We finally reached school, I gave my mother a tight hug and went towards the entrance gate.

That's when my day started to be the worst...

Ugh not again!... you guessed it correctly.I tripped and fell, I forgot to tie my shoelaces. It was science class, the only subject I'm not good at. That's when I got called by the teacher when I did not know the answer. A class filled with 31 students and our teacher had to choose me. Why me?

The third period was about to start.I had 45 minutes and 38 seconds till lunch break .

 Ouch I banged into somebody while going to the classroom. We were in the same class.

 "I'm so sorry," I said. Oh, even I'm sorry that girl said. You must be Emma, I'm Julia said the girl. I saw you going to Maths class a while ago. Yeah that was me, it's good to meet you. 

"I really like your outfit," said Julia. 

"Thank you", I replied with a slight smile. It felt really good talking to her...I asked her to accompany me during lunch break, and she agreed. I got to know that we lived in the same block, apparently next door to me. I was on cloud nine. We started hanging out and spending a lot of time together. I finally had a friend!

The worst day turned to the best one ever!

Thank you dear friend. I never knew she would be my best friend but I'm glad that we met.
