Search for love( am in love)

I woke up not feeling too happy but the thought of us being in New York made me quite happy, I starred the ceiling one more time before jumping out of the bed. I was not sure if New York will be nice, when i was in Africa (Nigeria) I always heard how busy and sensational New York was. I ran off to the bathroom thinking of how my first day of school is gonna be like, I was not use to sitting around white people, I thought it will be kinda awkward to me. I smiled at the thought of that.

I hurried off from the bathroom I met my mom already in my room with my cloths in her hands, I was the only girl in my family and I was used to my mom being too protective.

Good morning mom I said to my mom taking my cloths from her hands

Good morning ola, How are you doing? Hope you are ready for your first day of school?

Am Good mom, I lied to her . I don't know if am ready but just curious about how things is gonna look like

********

I sat down in the dining table, I couldn't eat . My mind was just on how my new school gonna be.

Yo Nigga, Going somewhere huh?

Stop speaking like that, I helled at my brother, since we came to this place, you have been speaking as if you were in New York all your life.

Yh, have been in New York all my life .

When? Is it not last week you came here?

Stop all this argument my mom said, Femi take Ola to school, here take the keys of my car. The name of the school is Crystal light high.

Mom, I don't know the school talk more of the name

I will send you the address just hurry up so she wouldn't be late.

Ok mom.c

Bye mom I said and off we go.

*****

I was in the car with my brother heading to the New school off course my brother was just talking non-stop I starred at him I couldn't figure out what he was saying .

hey ola ,ola . Femi said , so you didn't hear what I was saying all this time

Yes, yes what did you say

Never mind

I starred blankly at him, we stopped at the huge gate , crystal light high school written boldly at the top.

I ran out of the car without saying Goodbye to my brother , I was curious that I couldn't think.

*******

I entered the school building. The school was so huge with blue paint, I entered the principal's office

Good morning ma, Am ola

Good morning dear, you are the New student Right from Nigeria?

Yes ma

As you can see am Mrs Kate the principal of this school, and you can address me as Mrs Kate. You will be given a test shortly to determine where you gonna be placed

Ok, ma

Just sit down and wait.

*****

I wrote the test and waited for my results, I wasn't expecting to score this high I said to myself.

Ok now, o-la follow me

I followed Mrs Kate and then she pointed out a class with Class A written boldly on the wall.

I walked in not knowing what to say or do.

*****

Good morning, you o-la right?

I starred at the man , whom I assumed

he is the class teacher

Good morning sir, you are right. Am ola

Class, this is o-la from Nigeria , she will be joining us, so be nice to her . he starred at me and said o-la go

Find somewhere to sit, check over there he pointed out there is an empty

Sit there.

Ok sir,

Everybody starred at me . Some looked at me with smiling face while some with cruel face.

Hello dear some guy said to me come sit over here, there is an empty sit beside me . While some of his friends keep on laughing.

I did not know why they were laughing , but I just assumed that sitting with that kinda guy with his friends is not anything good. I searched for another sit, I saw one and sat there, I saw a pretty black girl beside me.

Hi o-la, the girl said to me. I am chioma, Am kinda half cast cause my mom is a Nigerian and my dad from America

Hi dear , I am ola. Am from Nigeria , so are my parents

Ok , she said.
