Claudia Hills

I got bandaged up and moved up two floors to a much nicer girl. Claudia Hills was really friendly, gentle and sensitive. Claudia had wavy white blonde hair let loose. She had soft blue eyes, rosebud lips and a delicate nose ring on her slim nose. She was much tidier than Jacqueline and made me up a nice bed with pink and turquoise bedding.

"I was told a new girl was coming last night. I was looking forward to making friends with you."she smiled

"Thanks. At least someone cares about friendship" I chuckled.

"Let's glam up. I can do your hair for you and then you can do mine," she said sweetly.

"We can tell each other how we're orphaned as well. That's what every new girl does here." she suggested.

I was comfortable telling Claudia my story, she was really trustworthy and sweet. I told her everything from the start. She gave me a comforting hug when i'd finished.

"Oh my, I'm so sorry Lyne. I hope you don't find life hard here. Do you want to know about why i'm here?

"If you're okay with it?"

"Well I got moved here 2 years ago because when I started getting bullied at my old school for having nerdy friends, I got depression and never got good grades anymore and when my parents found out they got really mad at me for bad grades and then they fought a lot together, basically blaming each other for not watching me over in school. In the end, they split up and I was left with my mum. I used to tell her, just because I got bad grades you guys didn't have to split. I really missed Dad and soon he passed from a severe car crash. Mum was the only one left for me and soon she got extremely sick and soon SHE also... passed. It was my mistake, I should have stood up for myself."

She weeped for a while and then reluctantly wiped her tears.

"Sorry Lyne, I just fell apart then. I'm strong now. I know they've made up in Heaven." she smiled pleasantly.

We got back to braiding.

She braided my hair into two intricate dutch braids. She put shiny colours on my eyelids and even gave me a change of outfit.

"I think this yellow jumpsuit will look eye catching on you. I've never worn it... so you can have it. As a welcome present."

I thanked her and felt bad I had nothing to give her back.

She was my new bff.
