A black car stopped in front of X city college and a young girl alighted. She should be about sixteen or seventeen. Her black halr, free of curls cascaded down her back. She had around her neck, a headphone. She wore a dark blue coat underneath which layed a white shirt and a knee length pleated skirt the same color as the coat. On her feet were a pair of black kicks. She slung her bag on a shoulder and took a step when a girl launched at her from the side.
"Sam!! You're late. I've been waiting for you for a while now. About ..."she checked her watch"...two minutes"She was full of smiles and exceedingly loud.
"Elaine..." Samantha addressed with a bored expression. Perhaps you'd think it strange that a person as quiet as Samantha would have such a noisy friend.
She started walking after pulling the headphone over her ears. Elaine followed"You could have said let's get going at least!" Elaine's voice rang out as they disappeared among the students.
Samantha forgot her surroundings as she continued starring at the birds drawing parabolas. The music that separated her from the rest of the world was suddenly yanked off. She nearly glared at the teacher. She would have, had she not anticipated it. Her eyes remained on the desk for a second or two before she raised them.
"Samantha Del. I thought we were over this"
She looked at the middle aged teacher. He was not so happy. She should have apologized but she didn't and it annoyed the teacher all the more. "I think you should go home and get your parents" the teacher said "my parents don't have time" replied Samantha "well then till they have time you'll not be attending my class".
Samantha stood up took her back and went out of the classroom. She knew that was the end of lessons for her for the term. Drusilla Del wouldn't waste her time on her. Aaron was too busy and she would rather carry her own cross than disturb him .
" Sam you shouldn't have done that" Ellen complained when they had closed from school. Samantha simply continued walking without saying anything.
They reached the gate and Samantha entered the familiar car with Elaine still complaining.
"You worry too much El,see u tomorrow" and the driver shut the door after her.
The car stopped in front of an extravagant mansion and she opened the door in her own and stepped down, not waiting for the driver to do it.
She entered and saw a petite middle aged woman with brown hair selecting jewel pieces from vastly laid out pieces.The designer was sitting nearby, obviously encouraging her.Yeah, that was Mrs. Del.
"Hi, mom" Samantha said before going up the stairs. She didn't wait for a response,neither did Mrs Del acknowledge her.
An hour later, Samantha came down dressed in a pair of dark jeans and a halter on top with black sneakers on. Her hair was held in a high ponytail and of course, she had her headphone in hand.
She walked past her mother but this time, seemed to have grabbed her attention.
"Where are u going dressed like that?" She snapped.
"Out, obviously " Samantha replied.
Mrs Del's gaze hardened. "You dare talk to me in that manner? If you think you're old enough, just pack your things and leave already. I won't tolerate this kind of attitude in my home."
Samantha chuckled, though it was humourless.She thought it wise to stay quiet and walked away.
Her phone's screen lit up as soon as she stepped out of the mansion. It was a message from a caller ID saved as 'Cute guy '. The message read ' Everyone is waiting '
She replied with,' When are u guys ever early?'
She put on her helmet ,got on her motorcycle and zoomed off...
