C10 GLOOMILY MORNING

_Angie's POV

"Brrrrrrggggg_", The alarm sounded and I struggled to get out of bed sluggishly. Yesterday's registration was so stressful.

Apart from registering for school, I have to register for the final examination for leaving high school. Even though I was so stressed out, I still have to prepare dinner since Dennis insisted on eating homemade food.

Well, Notwithstanding, I have to get up now to prepare for today. Today will be the day I'll finally see what school here in New York does look like. I searched the Internet overnight and I got the information that Brooklyn Academy was one of the best schools in New York. I still couldn't believe it, so I became eager to go to school.

"Dennis!" I called from the sitting room. I had just finished breakfast and walked to the sitting to get my backpack, "Hurry up, Dad will drop you off at school today, I'll be leaving early," I told him. Dennis is so slow-witted so I had to leave him on his own.

"Bye-bye, see you later and please I am not interested in fast food tonight, make sure you come home early." I heard him say from his room.

"I'm not interested in fast food_" I mimicked, "That boy just doesn't know who the senior is."

"Bye Dad." I waved at my Dad who was busy with today's news.

I headed out to take a cab and oh yeah, I don't plan on taking my car to my new school since I have just a little time to spend in high school. Maybe, if I wish, I can ride it when I finally get to college.

I got to the bus station and saw a cab waiting, ready to pick up someone so I quickly ran to it and entered almost immediately. I don't want to miss it and get to school late.

"Brooklyn Academy," I said to the chauffeur, who turned to say something but stopped abruptly, gave me a hard stare, and turned back to the steering wheel about to start the cab. So I wondered, why the stare?

Just then, someone came in and sat beside me but I couldn't focus as I was busy placing my earphones inside my ear.

As we drove through the highway, I had a feeling that the other passenger was staring directly into my face.

Just immediately after I turned, I saw shining green eyes gazing at me.

I was stunned.

Not only were his eyes beautiful but he was a cute, pretty boy. He looked exactly like a sea god.

I couldn't stop staring and noticed he attended the same school as me as we both wore the same school uniform.

Knowing fully well I caught him, he turned his gaze to face the other side and I think I saw him smirk. Maybe I was imagining things again because only that smirk could make one flush.

I couldn't help but smile because he was also able to notice my beauty.

After a long drive, We finally got to our destination and without any hesitation, the cute boy got down from the cab and walked away into the school building.

"Why can't the chauffeur call him back to ask for his transport fare." I thought and shrugged my shoulders, "Maybe they knew each other."

I opened my purse to pay the chauffeur but to my greatest surprise, the man refused the money and said, "This car is not a transport can, it belongs to my master."

"Master? Who is your master?" I asked bewildered, "Was that your master? No, I mean the boy who sat here beside me was your master?" I asked again with a shaking voice while the chauffeur nodded.

"But hold on, why didn't you inform me when I stopped you the other time?" I asked, perplexed.

"I wanted to but I received an order not to. Please you have to get off now, I have something I need to attend to." The chauffeur replied, making me more stunned.

"But_"

" Right now miss." He cut me short instantly.

I couldn't find any more words to say because I became speechless. I already fooled myself this beautiful morning. I got down sheepishly and stridden into the school building to my locket in the corridor.

The environment looks lively as students chatter and laugh with one another. I was disturbed, I have no one to talk to or chat with, and I feel alone again.

It was awesome to be in another environment but I kinda missed my friends especially, Jane. She would have rumbled all around me the moment she caught up with me in school.

I was happy and I was sad. I have never thought I would ever leave California and settle in New York City not like it was some kind of holiday but to live permanently.

Someone erupted in my thoughts with a question and I came back to life. "It seems like we will meet again."

I don't think that way refers to me but I still turned. The pretty girl I met yesterday was standing a few meters from me. She was busy collecting something from her locker.

"Hey." I greeted.

"Hey. I never knew we'd meet again." She said, closing her locker

"Yeah_" was all I could mutter.

"That's great. I'm off to class, we should meet again." She said hurriedly, about to leave.

I didn't know what to call her and this time around I called her back, "I don't know your name." I asked stylishly.

"Nancy." She said before walking away majestically.

"Her name is just as pretty as her. Nice meeting you too, Nancy." I mumbled, referring to no one in particular, I just needed to say that.

I turned back towards my locker and picked up what I needed for the day before heading to my new class which I have waited so long to meet.

I missed my way to my class and later asked for directions, which I was told was on the fourth floor. I thanked the boy and made my way to the class.
