Holiday withers: school begins
Ughh.... I can't believe the holiday is already over! I really really don't feel like going back to school. I wished I could tell mom I'd like to drop out but that would only ruin my future.
I sighed at the thought of school, mom had gone back to the states due to her profession, Heath had gone home since the holiday was over, I had a new housemaid and I was back to square one.. well... Without dad Ofcourse.
I got up and got dressed for school, went down the stairs to see my lunch already packed up.
I waited in the car for my driver, Tom, to take me to school.
When I reached the front gate, I felt like a nervous wreck.. I took a deep breath and walked through the hallway, looking around like a wannabe thief or something.
While I was still day dreaming I bumped into someone. "I'm sorry" I muttered as I looked up to see a girl around my age as she dragged me by the hair. "Ow! What's your deal! I said I'm sorry" I pouted but I guess she found it funny because she cackled like a witch "this b!tch really don't know who I am..." She turned to look round, trying to gain attention then continued "you must be new huh?" She pulled my hair harder.
I wanted to bulge her eyes out but thankfully a teacher came right in time before I did anything stupid.
I walked down the hallway and to my class, as all eyes were fixed on me. Great! Now I must be the talk of the school! Happy me!
After about 10 minutes, a teacher walked into the class.
"Good day students, welcome to this session, I see we've got some new faces? Well that's great, the more room for friends am I right?" She smiled warmly. "My name is Miss Diane and I'd be your form mistress this term as well as your school's counselor, feel free to always approach me if nee..."
"Ugh not this boring speech again!" A girl whispered to herself but we all heard it, I guess that was her aim. The teacher just ignored and continued giving her speech.

"Haha! So you think you can just sit wherever you want?!" I turned around to see the girl I had gotten into a fight with earlier.
She dunked a bottle of soda on me and laughed making the crowd laugh too.
"Jesus Camille! Not this again!" A boy shook his head in disappointment. "Ugh... Here we go..." She rolled her eyes as she whispered to herself.
The boy walked towards her and dragged her out of there probably to scold her or something but that wasn't my problem: I was in the middle of the cafeteria, soaked in soda and all eyes on me!! My eyes inched as I bit back tears, everyone from different angle laughed at me, normally I wouldn't care but considering my mental health right now... I did.
I cursed every living being on earth for making my life this miserable.
"Are you okay?" I was asked, my head facing down. "Hello??" The voice said as he waved his hands to my face but I still didn't reply. Actually, I didn't reply because I was looking for the right words to give in. When I got it, I let out a sigh of frustration. "If I was okay, would I still be sitting down here?!" I asked a bit mean but the dude found it funny because he giggled.
"Hmm fiesty! So should I help you out or...?" He asked as if waiting for me to beg him or something.
When I didn't give a reply, he held me by the hand and dashed out of the cafeteria. I looked up to see him, but couldn't because we started running and I looked confused.
"Erm... Why are we running?" I asked. "Shh... They're coming! Run faster?" Was his reply. We ran till we reached the playground of the school where he stopped and laid down flat on the grass, leaving me more confused.
"What were we running from?" I asked as he let out a heartly laugh "oh nothing" at this I felt a bit angry. "Then why'd you do it?!!" I yelled at him. "Relax! You were stressed so I just helped you get over it... My mum used thought me that when I was younger" a sad look appeared on his face at the mention of his mom. I was about to ask about his mom when the bell rang.
"Looks like our little chit chat is over, God he always picks the pretty ones" he whispered to himself as he bit his lips but I could hear them clearly.
In about some hours time, school was over and it was raining heavily, I tired to call my driver, but there wasn't signal... I would have stayed in school till the rain subsided, but I had had enough drama in one day.
I walked home in the rain, hoping to find a cab or something that could take me home at least. After hours of walking, my damn body decided to ache again!! I winced in pain silently, I had to get home quickly and take my tabs.
I strived thought the rain but that only lasted for a minute or so, because I must have collapsed and found myself in my bedroom when I woke up.
"What is wrong with you? Why didn't you call Tom to pick you up?!" My maid yelled at me.
I was in no position to answer her lavish complains because my body still ached.
When she realised I was just gonna keep ignoring her, she took my by the hand and compressed it.
I yelled in pain, not because of my squeezed hands, but my body that was in pain.
"Tabs.. need tabs... Closet!" I tried to yell. She must have thought I was joking or trying to let me out of her grief because she just laughed "oh no! I'm not falling for your thicks! I'm gonna teach you a les-"
***********************
Ah yes! I collapsed. When I opened my eyes, I found my self in a strange surrounding; it was the hospital. I looked round scanning for whoever was in the room to ask what the frickin hell was I doing in a god-damned hospital! But I couldn't find any.
So being a very reasonable person that I am, I removed the drip that was attached to my hands and walked out of the door.
I looked around till my eyes finally caught the attention of a room boldly written 'Consultant's room.' it wasn't my habit to eavesdrop, but considering the fact that my mum was also there, I didn't see it as a problem. But what I heard, made me scared to death.
"... No doctor, why did you ask?" My mum sounded a bit restless at his question. The doctor sighed, then continued
"Your daughter has been diagnosed with a critical kidney disease."
