Chapter 3-Unable to find my maths class

• I hung my head low, as I plugged my earpiece in my phone; as I searched for my favorite song entitled: 'If it's meant to be, I'll be, baby just let it be'. Two minutes after searching through my playlist, I found the song that I wanted to listen to. With a grin plastered on my face, I began to nod my head to the beat; before I started singing, along with the artist as if I was in a world all myself, I don't care if my family hates me right now! And I don't care if I can't find my stupid class for once.
• It felt good to let out all my pain, all the burdens that were on my shoulders were gone but when the song came to an end and I pulled my earpiece out of my ears everything came back hitting me hard in my face. With a sigh, I stood up and brushed the imaginary dust off of my shorts, and slightly turned on my heels to walk up the bright furnished stairs. But then my instincts made me tilt my head and looked around. When I turned around, I was dumb-struck to the point where I couldn't bring myself to move because there was a hall full of students and teachers and even the very principal.
• "I swear I didn't see anyone when I was singing, I guess I was caught up in the moment," Charlie shrugged to herself.
• Everyone was there just staring at me in surprise. The reason why I say this is because many of the teacher's and student's mouths were touching the floor.
• "Was I that loud?" Charlie questioned loudly.
• "Am afraid you were, I was in my office getting some work done, until all of a sudden I heard your angelic voice and this is what led all of us here. You have an amazing voice Miss Brown, I know that it's your first day here but you can join the music band and help our school take this year's trophy," Mrs. Rider said with a hopeful smile.
• "I'd love to, thank you for the compliment, it means a lot," Charlie replied with a smile of her own.
• I was surprised when the students started cheering me on to sing another song. My subconscious made me turn my head to look at the principal and surprisingly she nodded her head signaling me to go on. But it's not like I have much of a choice when I have such an audience.
• Words of the song "Climb" by Miley Cyrus is below:
• I can almost see it
• That dream I'm dreaming
• But, there's a voice inside my head saying
• You'll never reach it
• Every step I'm taking
• Every move I make feels
• Lost with no direction
• My faith is shaking
• But I, I gotta keep trying
• I Gotta keep my head held high
• There's always gonna be another mountain
• I'm always gonna wanna make it move
• Always gonna be an uphill battle
• Sometimes I'm gonna have to lose
• Ain't about how fast I get there
• Ain't about what's waiting on the other side
• It's the climb
• The struggles I'm facing
• The chances I'm taking
• Sometimes might knock me down, but
• No, I'm not breaking
• I may not know it
• But these are the moments, that
• I'm gonna remember most, yeah
• Just gotta keep going
• And I, I gotta be strong
• Just keep pushing on, 'cause
• There's always gonna be another mountain
• I'm always gonna wanna make it move
• Always gonna be an uphill battle
• Sometimes I'm gonna have to lose
• Ain't about how fast I get there
• Ain't about what's waiting on the other side
• It's the climb
• Yeah
• There's always gonna be another mountain
• I'm always gonna wanna make it move
• Always gonna be an uphill battle
• Sometimes you're gonna have to lose
• Ain't about how fast I get there
• Ain't about what's waiting on the other side
• It's the climb
• Yeah, yeah
• Keep on moving, keep climbing
• Keep the faith, baby
• It's all about, it's all about the climb
• Keep your faith, keep your faith
• Whoa
• Three minutes later, after I finished singing the second song everyone clapped in excitement and squealed, causing me to feel good about myself. Who knew that I would become popular on my first day at school? And here I was being worried and nervous and just now, shit got real hehe. A teacher came up to me with a book in his hand, my instincts told me that he is the music teacher.
• "Hello Miss Brown, I'm Mr. Smith, I work in the music department and we have students that are talented like yourself in the choir. And I would like you to join and help us in winning this year's trophy," Mr. Smith stated with a genuine smile.
• "I'll join the choir, but they're better be good songs on the singing list," Charlie replies, with seriousness written all over her face.
• "That can be rearranged, you could help in selecting the songs if you want, and our first practice is tomorrow afternoon when school is over, which is at 3:00 pm and practice ends at 5:00 pm," Mr. Smith added back seconds later matching Charlie's serious face.
• "Am not promising you that I’ll be early because I am still new here and I wouldn't know where to go," Charlie responded back saying with the ‘you know it too look’.
• Few minutes after my little chit-chat with the music teacher Mr. Smith, the bell rang signaling that it was now lunch, I slowly followed the crowd to what I think is the cafeteria. Honestly, I can't wait to know the school well, so I won't have to depend on anyone to go wherever I want. After glancing back and forth, I noticed a red hair girl was running to catch up with me. I don't know anyone that goes to this school, so maybe I mistakenly guessed. But then seconds later the red hair girl caught up with me out of breath.
• "Hello I just wanted to tell you that you sounded amazing back there, maybe we could hang out sometimes and if possible become friends?" an unknown girl asked shyly.
• "That would be nice, I could use a friend, and since I don't know the place that well you could probably show me around. By the way, I'm Charlie, what's your name?" Charlie asked the brunette/.
• "My name is Tashoya but you can call me tash, I could follow you to your next class, and maybe after school, I could give you a tour so you won't get lost tomorrow," Tashoya said with a pleasant smile.
• "Thank you so much, to be honest, I didn't know I would make any friends today let alone anyone noticing me but I guess I was wrong, you giving me a tour would be so kind, I'd love that," Charlie squeals.
• Am glad everything is falling into place now, I feel a little happy. We can't be mad at the world forever, right?
• A few seconds later Tash and I got to the cafeteria, we placed our order since there wasn't any line.
• "Can I have 2 slices of cheese pizza and 2 apples please?" Charlie placed her order to a red-haired cashier.
• "Sure, that will only be 120 dollars," a lady with red hair said back with a bright smile.
• “Here you go,” Charlie said, as she handed the lady 150 dollars.
• “I told you 120, here’s your change,” the red hair cashier said sweetly.
• “I know, keep the change,” Charlie replied saying with a smile of her own.
• “That’s so sweet of you, thanks, by the way, my name is Emma,” Emma said with a grin.
• “Nice name Emma,” Charlie added quickly, as she stepped out of the now full line.
• "So what do you have for your next class Tashoya?" Charlie questioned curiously.
• "I have history class, what do you have?" Tashoya asked back.
• I took out the timetable the teacher gave me and pulped my eyes out. I was shocked to see that I also had history.
• As I showed Tashoya my timetable, I watched her scream and jump up and down like a 2-year-old.
• "What are u so happy about?" Charlie giggled teasingly.
• "Am happy because we have every class together Char, I hope you like the nickname," Tashoya muttered with a smirk.
• "Then I won't get lost, the nickname is fine, that's what my father used to call me," Charlie sighed as her voice broke.
• "So where is he?" Tashoya questioned curiously.
• "Ah_ he_ ah_ I don't want to talk about it right now, let's go eat our pizza," Charlie stated as she changed the topic.
• "Right, let's go sit with those people over there," Tashoya said to Charlie with a genuine smile.
• I followed her to the table she picked out and I was surprised to see Ryan sitting down with a girl in his lap, literally eating off his lips. As we finally approached the huge table I stood still, not knowing if I should sit or head over to a different table, I was debating with myself until someone spoke up.
• "What's she doing here?" I heard a feminine voice ask.
• "I invited her, what's your problem, Vicky?” Tashoya questioned with her eyebrows raised in confusion.
• "I could sit somewhere else, I don't mind,” Charlie spoke up in a strong voice, making everyone including Ryan look at her.
• "Beat it bitch! Don't you see that the table is full? And haven't you realized that this is where the popular kids eat, and the last time I check, today is just your first day here," Vicky spat rudely before hissing her teeth.
• "If I remember clearly a bitch is a dog! And frankly, you resemble one. I don't care who you are, and I don't care if this is where the popular jerks eat! I can sit anywhere I please; and if you dare come in my way, then you'll face the consequences," Charlie shouted with an innocent smile, before sitting down on the bench next to her new friend Tashoya.
• Everyone including tashoya mouth was wide open, I'm not a bitch or anything but I can be one when I'm ready / a badass as everyone calls it.
• "So no one is going to eat? Or would you all rather flies go in your mouths?" Charlie asked with a smirk.
• "Yo Ryan, I don't know this chick but I sure as hell like her," an unknown guy spoke up saying.
• "Yeah man she has quite an attitude, but you know feisty is my type and back off, cause she's mine," Ryan replied seriously with a smirk.
• I looked at Ryan in disbelief, as I finished off my pizza.
• "So none of y'all not gonna do no introduction," Charlie questioned with her eyebrows raised in suspicion.
• Three blond hair boys introduced themselves as Jason, Mason, and Jackson, they are triplets but they are not identical.
• Different color hair girls that introduced themselves as:
• *the black pretty hair said her name was Mackenzie
• *dirty blond hair girl said her name was Arianna
• And the last girl introduced herself as Sasha.
• I slowly turned to the skinny girl who spoke to me rudely, with an evil smirk, and said.
• "And you're Vicky the bitch," Charlie said with a smirk.
