Chapter 4: The New Beggining

3rd January 1975

The alarm clock rang loudly. I woke up from my slumber. I checked the clock and it was around 6.10 a. m. I was still sleepy but I had to get up to go to school. Wow!! Time flies really damn fast, you know?? It was as if yesterday I was a home-schooled teenage boy, now I'm a high school boy!! I went to the bathroom in excitement to take my morning shower. It felt so fresh bathing using the water-heater. I think I took around 10 minutes for me to bath as I was thinking on what should I do when I get there. By the time I finished showering, it was 6.20 a.m. Phew, showering, check. Now, for the clothes. It's not that fancy looking, buy it's stylish and boyish looking. It looks kinda like this.

Yeah, that's the right word. Boyish. *laughs * ehem ehem alright back to the topic. I got down to see my mom, my dad mad my siblings at the dinner table. "Mornin lil brother!,  Jackie exclaimed. My eldest sister, Janet hugged me like she never wanted me to leave. "Morning Jackie. Now Janet, don't be sad. Im just going to school not going to a war. "Mikey, don't leave. Who's going to play with me then like we used to do? ", Janet said while crying. I wiped her tears away and kissed her on her forehead. "We still can play tags together after I finish my homework, okay?? Now now don't cry. Who's my favourite sis??", I said. "Me, me", shouted Janet. She's only 9 years old. I smiled and cradled her to the dinner table. All of my siblings awed at us. They know that I love kids very much. They're the most precious human being and the most beautiful jewels with pure heart. "How do I look guys", I asked. "You look wonderful today Mike", Tito then answered. "Well, are you ready for your first day of school?, Marlon then inquired. "Yup, I am! ", I smiled. Mom made a simple homemade fried mee. It taste like haven. We all admit that mom is the best cooker among all of us here. While we were eating, Marlon told us one of his silly dreams. We were guffawed when he told us that he talked while he was asleep. Oh my! Yes I do remember. He said like this *clears my throat* Pony, where's my dear Pony?? Come here Pony so that I can ride you all day and all night. Ahh Pony yeah. That's right Pony. Rock my whole damn world with your tasty lips. Oh God I can t believe that I actually said this. *Shaking my head while clasping with both of my hands on my face* The fact that he moaned so loud that I almost ran into his room screaming to shut him up. Gosh, sheesh!! Who's Pony by the way?? Maybe it's one of his sugar mama. Oh God. Thinking about it makes me wanna throw up so badly!! Ughh!! Eww!! Alright, alright stop thinking about it Michael!! *slaps my face* ouch that hurts. *sigh* anyways, after we all had our breakfast, it was already 6.35 a.m. I have to go now I told them to wish me a good luck at school. "Finger crossed", they said instantly with their fingers crossed. I thanked and waved my hand to them. Janet ran to me and hugged me tighter. "Keep this photo of me with you always", Janet said while handled the photo to me. "Alright, I promise". We made our distinctive hand shake gestures. My dad is driving today so it'll be a 10 minute departure. My dad usually drive this type of car:

It's really comfortable to sit on. My dad first bought it in the year 1971. I used to hate it because I like big cars that fits us all. Oh well, I already get use to it and it seems cool. Anyways, on my way to my venture, I slid my hands into my school bag and took out Janet's photo.

Ahh yesss childhood memories *smiles*. Anyways, I looked through the car window and I saw a sign that says "Beverly Hills High School". My jaw dropped. It was a huge and massive school. I bet that the school can fit until 1000 students and above. Wow!! I never felt so nervous before. Oh God!! Michael calm down. Breath in, breath out, breath in, breath out. Alright. So, I peeked through the car window and I saw a big sign that's stated "Beverly Hills High School". My jaw dropped. It was a huge and massive school. I think I estimated that over 1,000 students could filled up this school. While my dad drove to find a parking spot, I saw a beautiful teenage girl walking alone to school. She had those hazel eyes and a fine body. My eyes glued into her. Our eyes met and she just hid somewhere. I was puzzled. Okay, maybe that was another new girl that came to school. But, as I saw her eyes, I felt like something's weighing her on. As if she had the whole world to carry with. Suddenly, I felt like my gut told me to help her out. Perhaps I could meet and understand her troubled situation. Then, I also hoped that I could be the same class as her. "Michael! Yooohoo!! Michael!!", my dad snapped me out. "We're here! Get up and meet new friends, son! "my dad said. He was so super excited about me having to experienced my first day of school. "Alright then. See you after school!", I said. Boy, I was hella nervous. Never have I ever had the courage, I would definitely not showed myself up. But, *sigh* here I am in the real world. To my surprise, they didn't noticed me. I'm not trying to gained some attention here but it felt so good to be a "normal" teenage boy. First, I need to go to the principal's office to hear a briefing from Mr. Harry, the school principal if I'm not mistaken. The intense moment filled inside me. Oh my. I hope that I could fit in this school.
