CHAPTER 10: A New School

The interior building of the school was painted in a golden color, everywhere was bright and Kasela could see some students going to and fro in the large Hall. The woman led her through a series of stairs to the second floor and they stood in front of a painted metal door. The woman handed a key over to her as she showed her the room.

"This room here is yours and this is the key to your room" Mrs Caroline handed the key over to her.

She unlocked the door and they both went in, by this time her uncle and the two men arrived bringing her luggages with them. The room was spacious and beautiful, there was a wardrobe where she could put her clothes. There was also a bathroom and Kasela felt comfortable with the room. Taking a sheet from her pocket, Mrs Caroline gave it to Kasela

"This is a pamphlet which will give you any information and location you need about the school". She told Kasela.

"Thank you, this will really help me familiarize myself with the school". Kasela answered.

"Classes will be starting in two days from now, all you need to do is familiarize yourself with the school, professors and deans". She told Kasela and left the room leaving her with her uncle.

Kasela's face turned gloomy at the thought of her uncle leaving her. The man noticed her gloomy face and patted her in the head.

"I'll be leaving you now as it's getting late, don't be sad you know you can always call me or your aunt whenever anything comes up".

Kasela's face brightened up at her uncle's words and she gave him a little smile. She walked with him to the door and bade him goodbye as he left. She locked the door and flopped on the bed, she picked up the pamphlet the woman gave to her and looked at it. Every information about the school was on it, starting from the location, including the classes, the hall, the cafe, library and so on. She also noticed a certain building located a little far away from the right hand side of the school building and she wondered who owned it or was it also a special building which belonged to the school? She changed into simple clothes and arranged her clothes inside the wardrobe. She kept some of her text books on the reading table beside her bed. After making sure that everything was being put in place properly, she lied in the bed to rest and fell into a deep sleep. She dreamt of her late grandmother and her aunt.

She woke up few hours later with a start and realized she was in a new school. She took out her phone and checked the time, it was already past six in the evening, which means that she slept for four good hours. Her stomach suddenly growled and she frowned feeling hungry. Suddenly there was a knock on the door which startled her and her breath hitched wondering who it was.
