of, wait!!!!!!

Maybe they had a Picture of him! I saw the article but there was nothing; it just had pictures of the teachers only. "How did you get this?" I asked. "Well, we found it on Google silly" Rani said. So they all knew about my secret now. I glared at puja. She gave me puppy eyes, they don't work on me. The rest of the day was ok.

Nothing exciting happened except for the fact that we got the schedule for our test s which were the next to next week. I hate tests!!!!! And we also have a field trip next week!!! Yay! "Come on Kavya! We'll miss the bus! Get out of the classroom! "I screamed. I was excited for the field trip as we were going to a state animal center to view stuff about endangered species. I love animals!!! We finally got on the bus and sat together. I went to other field trips before, but this one felt really weird. I really felt like I was there, sitting beside Andrew chatting with him. Since my daydreaming increased, my friends thought that I was going slowly insane. "Look, we'll take you to the doctor if you don't stop thinking about prince charming......" Rani warned me with a laugh.

"Ohhhh.....kay? I got it???? Sorry.... So what were we talking about? "I said. "Apparently nothing, we were looking at your faraway look. "Kavya said. We reached the center. It was really nice inside. There were many different animals, the only part I didn't like about the trip was the snake exhibit, and I hate snakes!!! My favorite part of the trip was the bird exhibit. I always wanted a pet bird, especially a dove. It wasn't possible as my parents were totally against pets. We weren't allowed to bring phones into school so anyways I couldn't click any pictures. After the trip we went back to school. We had a choice of staying back for two hours and helping out the teachers and stuff. I don't like working but it was a good opportunity to skip my drawing class I hated.

I, Kavya, puja, rani and Aisha stayed back. We actually enjoyed staying back. We just made posters and charts. It was fun. I thought of a similar day in elementary when we were making project cards for the class. God!!!! I should stop thinking about this! It really is weird how I never thought so much before. It's like an obsession now! After I got home I was in for a shock, I'll explain: Mom, dad, grandpa and grandma were all sitting in a circle with grave faces when I entered the room. I asked them what happened. They weren't going to tell me. But it looked serious so I had to know. I used my powers of convincing which always worked.

"Fine, we'll tell you. See your dad has been trying to ignore it but now it's impossible. "Mom started to explain. "Please get to the point fast mommy!!" I said.

"Well, we have to go to Virginia ....." She sighed. Unfortunately for her, my reaction wasn't what she expected. I jumped and said "yay!!!!" Everyone frowned. My smile changed into a frown realizing what I'd have to leave behind to go there. I sighed. I finally understood. A wave of anger rose upon me. "I hate you! This is what you wanted right????? I adjusted here and you are making me go back???? What do you think? I will go and spoil my life? I won't go!!!!!!!!"I shouted. My mom looked exhausted. "Look, we were thinking about this.

If you want to stay, you can--"she began. I just wanted to argue. "So you guys will have fun without me!" I said. On saying that I felt bad seeing the faces of my grandparents. Again another decision...ughhhhhh!!!!!! I should never have wished for.....wait?!?! I am going back so I'll meet him if he doesn't move to another place!!! I calmed down a bit.

"Okay. I understand. When are we going?" I asked. "As soon as possible as now your school year in Virginia is supposed to begin. We might have a visa interview in a month" my dad said. "Whoa!" I said to myself. My parents were more advanced than me, cool!!!!! And I realized that I was completely jumbled up in my emotions. My parents were sure we'd go. That means ill meet my best friend!!!! Yay!!!! But the whole process will take time, I said to myself, a long time...... Maybe I'll see him, what if he has a girlfriend?????? That will be awful!!!

I remember one day I had asked my mom if I could see my friends again. She had said that there is a ten percent chance. Can you imagine I got the chance? Yay me!!!!

Chapter 2

Nine months later...

 Hello! Tomorrow is my first day of high school! Yay! Yeah, I know that it took a long time for me to get here, but my parents decided to let me end my eighth Grade before coming here. I am in an apartment right now thinking about how my day will be tomorrow. I am joining when one month is over, but still I feel nervous right now. But I'm missing my grandparents and best friends. We chat often. I am a freshman! Hurrah!

The alarm clock rang. I woke up with a start. Glancing at the watch I saw that it was 7:30am. My bus would come at 8:30am. I know, I'm going to take some time. I brushed and washed my face. I changed into capris and a halter neck top. It was October, so a nice chill of air was blowing. I kept my hair open and braided a few strands if it. I applied some lip-gloss. Next, I had my breakfast. There was a purse in my hand with a binder and a pencil, and my other stuff. Okay, I was excited. Then it was time to leave. I told my mom and dad goodbye and walked to the bus stop.

There was another girl standing there. I looked at her to see if she was familiar to any of my elementary friends. Well, she wasn't. I smiled at her. She smiled back and said, "Are you new here? What's your name?" I nodded and said "Kiara." Then our bus came. I chose to sit alone. It was a 15-minute drive. When the bus neared, I saw a huge cream-colored building. I got inside, knowing that I had to go to the office. The inside was amazing. There were students everywhere, mostly elder to me. I asked a lady, maybe a teacher where the office was. While walking around I looked at the students. I just went straight and to my left as she said.

I entered the office. A bald headed man was sitting. He smiled at me. I smiled back and said, "hi, I am the new student Kiara Sharma." "Oh! You can sit down. Welcome to the Murray High School!" He said. "Thanks." Well I felt somewhat nervous. I never wanted to be bullied. I heard high school life was scary.

Thinking of this stuff, I must have missed what he was saying. "- is really high here. I saw your reports and enrolled you in honors classes for a few subjects. By the way, I am Mr. Falken" I just nodded my head. "To guide you around, we have a helper. Ashley!" He called. "Oh and here's a new student packet. I kept your schedule in it too." A pretty blonde girl came up. "Hi, I am Ashley; I'll show you around the school." "Hello" I said words barely coming to my mouth. Ashley was a sophomore. I didn't know if I could take this or not.

I really felt nervous. "Okay, so where's your schedule?" Ashley asked. "It's in here" I said taking it out. "Don't be nervous, it's not that bad." She said comfortingly. She was really nice. "So you have biology first period. Let's take you to your class. "She said. It was a huge school so it took like two minutes. She took me to a huge classroom. "Mr. Rode this is our new student Kiara." She said to me, "I'll meet you in the end of this class." "Okay," I said.

"Everyone, this is Kiara. I think she missed home room so ......" And he smiled. I smiled at the class. They smiled back. I heard many whispers. A guy said, "Whoa! You're hot." I think I blushed but I ignored him. "Behave yourself, Dylan." I had an odd feeling. Was this Dylan Neves? The guy who was my friend in the elementary? I had a good look at him. Well, he was well behaved before. Maybe in the US this is common, I said to myself. This was way different than I thought it would be. "Your seat is beside Abby, the girl on the third seat in this row." He said, pointing to the row in the middle.

"Okay, thanks..." I said. I went to my seat and was about to sit when I bumped into something on my leg. I forgot that I could only get in from one side. Seeing my silly act, two girls sneered. "So, what are we doing Abby?" I asked. "Oh we have some practical stuff to do. Maybe you won't have to do it." She said and smiled.

Mr. Rode gave me a few supplies and then they did some writing assignment which I didn't have to do. I looked around the class. Two or three people looked really familiar. I was confused about Dylan. He was nice before.  But now He always had a smirk on his face. You can't say he looked bad. He was really good looking. He must be a jock. Then it was time for the lab experiment...

I just stood beside Abby and watched her study the butterfly parts. I just organized the loose paper and booklet. After a few minutes, the bell rang. Everyone got out. Ashley was waiting for me outside. "Where do we go next?" I asked her. "English" she replied. "The teacher is really nice. So how are you feeling?" She asked. "Good....." "Are you from India?" She asked me. "Yah, but I've lived here before." I said. "Oh....look here's your class."Bye!" We both said after I introduced myself to the teacher.

Her name is Mrs. Martinez. She's old but seems nice. That's when I had my first shock in school. I got assigned my seat. To the seat next to next me, I saw a guy with a Menches jacket. He was really good looking, had brown hair, and blue eyes. Seeing that I was gazing at him who was really rude I guess, he smirked at me. Those made me feel like I saw that guy before. Who was he?

Of course!!!! It had to be Andrew because though he had changed, he still had some similarities. I was almost sure. And then I was in for another. Just before class was ending, a guy approached me. I didn't notice him at first. He said, "Hey! You look really familiar, almost like someone who was once my friend. What's your name?" I looked
