Chapter Six
Rose's P.O.V

I found out that the pink-haired girl is my new step-sister.
Her name is Lily.
She just turned 14.
I moved into her house two days ago. Lily starts shaking me.

L-"Come on, Rose, get up!"

I groan...no way.

"Lily...not now." I answer sleepily.

L-"NO COME ON!!!!!" She whines.

"UGH..." I moan.

I grudgingly get up and...ARRRRRGGGHHH!
I have a test tomorrow in French and a test in Biology!!

"What time is it?" I ask nervously.

L-"5:30."

Oh. We're early. That gives me a hour to study.

I put on my school uniform which was a polo t-shirt, a plaid skirt, and argyle socks.

Then I brush my silky-smooth black-brown hair into a big braid down my back.
It goes all the way down to my waist.

"Where's my biology textbook?" I ask Lily.

L-"I don't know. Where did you put it last night?" She asks me.

"I forgot.... But I need it so I can study for my test in Bio today!" I said worried.

The smell of eggs and toast makes my mouth water.

L-"Ok, but first," Lily laughed,

L-"let's have breakfast."

We trample down the stairs and meet August and Autumn in the dining room.

"Hey, Big Brother." I say.

Aug-"First day at a new school, huh? And it's only March!"

What does he know? Back at my old school, I got bullied DAILY.
Hopefully I make friends at Lily's school (Christian Academy)...that's where I'm transferring to.
I find my Bio book laying on the couch.
Thank God it isn't ripped...... I grab my school bag, reorganize my books, straighten my glasses and put the empty plates in the sink.

August is driving us there.

----5 mins later-----

I clamber out, with Lily leading the way.
I check my schedule, and it's First class Math.
I open my locker, and I pull out my Math binder, my math homework, and I head down the hall where Lily leads me in.
They gave me homework yesterday after I met my teachers.
I only visited, so I don't really know anybody apart from Lily and her friends.
I open the door as kids pile in.
I see a desk with my name on it.
Some kid trips me.

Oof! Jeez.... that was rude.......

I pick up my books and put them on my desk neatly and I take a seat.
The homework was fairly hard, but I managed.
Everyone stares at me and starts to whisper.
I blush.

---After Math-----

I see that my next class is English. I had an essay due today.
I take my seat as the lesson begins.

T-"Can someone tell me what a conjunction is?"

------------2 hours later-----------

It's Break, so we all head to the playground.
There's a playground for the 5th graders.
Though I just sit and prep for the my next class.
I sit down on the bench as soon as we get outside and I pull out my Social Studies binder... The Vietnamese War....Cool! I start reading, when a kid shoves me off of the bench and starts laughing.
I get up...i'm a bit scraped, but I don't care.
Lily's outside, but she can't see me. Other kids start laughing, and gather around me, one of them yanks off my glasses, throws them, and breaks them.
I start crying, tears streaking down my face.

Those were the ones my father gave me.....
