Chapter 1

*05:00am*

Grin! Grin!! The alarm bells rang and Melody immediately got up from bed rushed straight to the bathroom and in the next five minutes she was out of the bathroom looking like an angel , she quickly dressed up for school and she looked at her self in the mirror and signed.

Mum, I really miss you and I wish your still here and my life won't be like this, she said as tears rolled down her cheeks as she remembers the last time she saw her mother in the hospital before she kicked the bucket. She wiped her tears and left the room and went downstairs to have her breakfast before going to school it's been two days after her mother's death she hasn't been to school and she decided to go to school because staying at home won't bring her mum back to life after she was done eating she left the house as the maids cleared the dining.

* At school *

Wow! Is that not Melody? I heard what happened to her, I feel sorry for her but she is really strong to go through her mother's death alone. Poor child. The students charted among themselves as Melody walked past them.

Melody!

Melody!!

Mel! Hey wait for me! Star shouted running after Melody whom she caught up with at the entrance to the class.

Melody I'm really sorry that I didn't make it to your house yesterday my parents weren't around so I had to babysit the twins I'm really sorry and I'll make it up to you to...

Enough Star I've forgiven you and too I wasn't at home yesterday and you don't have to make anything up for me, Melody cuts her up. But Mel I..... No star it's enough and we're gonna be late for class so let's get going and chat later or do you want us to chat and get punished for late coming?

Arrrrrgh Mel you don't have to be like this, you're really frustrating me you Know how much I hate it when you talk like that, Star said as they walked into the class.

The first class started as the teacher wrote down the subject on the board in capital letter "GEOGRAPHY".

Now who and who did the assignment I gave yesterday on the topic "Geomorphology" the teacher asked as only few students raised their hands. I don't know why most of you find it difficult to study! The teacher said so I guess I'm gonna ask one person to tell us the meaning of Geomorphology, so you at the back can you tell the class the meaning of Geomorphology?

I'm sorry ma'am I don't know the meaning. Hmmm the teacher sighed as wipes her forehead, oh Melody I guess you know the meaning can you help your friend out? I think that Geomorphology is the study of landform and landform evolution. You're correct you can sit while I explain the topic. The teacher started explaining as the bell rang for the next subject. So class this I where I'll be stopping today next time we'll go deeper into the topic, well before I forget miss Melody I heard what happened to you and I'm sorry for your lost I know it must have been hard to go through that alone my condolences and I must say you surprised me today the teacher said as she left. Arrrrrgh this isn't what I signed up for gosh! I need some air Melody said as she stood up to leave, where are you going it's not yet time for lunch you might get punished for wandering around. Hey you don't have to stress your self I'm just going to the toilet I'll be back in a jiffy so don't worry about me bye.

Melody

I can't believe this, is this how my life is going to be from now on everyone just feeling sorry for me making me feel lonely, I really have to be strong to overcome. I walked down the hall and passed the teachers office and got to the principal when I started hearing voices it sounded like the principal was arguing with someone who's voice sounds familiar, I walked towards the door. I'm sorry sir but we can't give you the transfer letter you're requesting. and why is that? Mr principal, sir listen if you should withdraw her from this school and looking at her condition she's not gonna cope well with the system of the school which is gonna cause more damage to her and she is in her final year in high school and doing this she might not graduate with her mate. I know my daughter well and she will cope well with the system of the school and I want her transferred to the state because I can't leave her here all by herself since her mum is no more and I can't leave my work at the state to come stay here so she has to come over. fine she'll be transferred immediately to one of the best schools at the state. thank you so much Mr principal i think I have to take my leave now and when should I I come and pick the letter? by tomorrow it should be ready the principal replied immediately the door was about to click open I ran to the school garden in tears, I can't believe it I'm getting transferred to another school he didn't even ask if I was okay with it? why would he show up after 6 years and to destroy my life why! why! why!!!!! she cried harder as it started raining.

*****

what's really keeping melody? she only went to the toilet and two classes has passed and she is not yet back it's almost time for break I need to go look for her.

Star! Star!!!,

ouch why would you shout my name like that when you're right in front of me Evans.

yeah I shouted your name because your here and not here,

whatever Evans so what's the problem?

uhm..... well....

come on Evans I don't have all the time in the world to just listen to what you have to say. fine I just wanted to know where Melody is and I have something important to tell her.

wow! someone has finally realized his feelings for my bestie, I'm so happy for but I don't know where Melody is right now she excused herself an hour ago and she's not back so I'm about going out to look for her,

wait! I'll go with you

are you sure?

yeah so let's go now, so where did she said she was going to?

the toilet

so let's check there first before anyother place.

no wait she wouldn't be in the toilet she should be at the library or the school garden that's where she always go when she wants to be alone

but I thought the library is always open during break and it's not yet break time so she should be..... the garden OMG! and it's raining what is she thinking Evans I think... Evans where are you? he left me behind for real?.
