He said. His face was amazed.
'Wait, your my- my dad?' I said. But I already knew it. He was.
'Its very nice to meet you Celia.' He said. His smile was really big. I smiled back.
'Its very nice to meet you too...' I said. I was about to say dad when it just didn't feel right yet. He noticed and sat on the seat next to me.
'Wow, this is amazing. You've grown so much. Your mother raised a beautiful girl.' He said.
'Thanks.' I said. 'You look great. Better than the last time I saw you.'
His smile went upside down. 'I hate myself for leaving you but I-'
'Can we not talk about this? I'm kind of tired.' I said trying to avoid this conversation. I knew what I was getting into. I'm sorry Celia, I was trying my best but I didn't want to hurt you. I did it for you. I was thinking of your future.And thats the last thing I wanted to hear.
'Oh sorry, I was just... nevermind. Lets get you home. Well not home but boarding school. And theres something I have to tell you.' He looked down nervously.
'Its okay, I know.' I said.'As annoyed as I am, I'm fine that it is an only boy's school.'
'You found out? How? Did your mother tell you?' He said.
'No, a student from your school told me.' I said. I crossed my arms. I was really mad now. 'Why did you hide it from me?'
'Oh Celia-'
'Its CeCe. We should go.' I said. I picked up my suitcase and my bag. I know I'm being too mean but thats what I am. Mean. And I knew who I got it from.
CHAPTER 8: A GIRL'S TOUCH

'We're here.' My dad said. Yes my dad, I am actually with my dad right now. I looked out the window to see a big school that weirdly looked like a church. It was an old victorian building that looked kind of haunted. Yikes.
The car parked outside the school. I was about to open the door when Dad just ran to open it for me. Wow, if your going to please me, you better do better than that. He carried my suitcase and my bag. I
'You don't need to carry it.' I said.
'I want to.' He said, struggling a lot.We went up the stairs. After a lot of stairs, Dad looked too red.
'So these are the classrooms.' He said. He pointed to a set old desks. Not a lot of decorations. Needs a girl's touch.
We went up to more steps and showed me the gym class, the science labs, the offices. There was a door that said 'Boy's dorm.' But he just said don't go there.
And finally, we went to a room that looked like an aparment. It had sofas, TVs, books and a dining room.
'So this is where I live. And you'll be staying here. Your rooms in there.' I looked into the door he pointed at. It was a nice room. There was a pink bed with a teddy bear. And pink curtians. Basically, most of the things in the room was pink. Sometimes I think that Gok Wan is the only guy who has fashion sense. And this could be why. But it was a great try.
'Do you like it? I mean, I didn't know what kind of person you were so I-'
I yawned. And it wasn't by purpose. Well Kind of..
'Sorry, I'm just babbling on. You should get some rest. School tomorrow.'
'What? I just came. Shouldn't I get settled in first.' I said callapsing on the bed.
'Tomorrow's opening day and everyone is coming. It'll be great for you to meet the teachers.' He said.
'And the students.' I added.
'Yeah, you dont need to talk to them. They will mind their own business.' He said. 'Well, your uniform is in the cupboard and get settled in and.. erm.. get some rest. I'll see you in the morning at 6.' He was about to go when I took in what he said.
'Wait what? 6! I can't wake up at 6!' I said angrily.
'Sorry, Its opening day as I said and I will have to get up early so that we could prepare everything.' He said.
'Fine. Whatever.' I said. I slided into my duvet.
'Shouldn't you change into something more comfortable, Celia?'
'Nope. I'm tired. Turn the lights off when you go. Thanks. And its CeCe.' I said before closing my eyes to go to sleep.
I couldn't see him but I knew he was angry. I guess he was a strict Headmaster and I was going to be a challenge. No wait, I AM going to be a challenge. Daddy, your in for it.

CHAPTER 9: IF NERVOUS WAS A DISEASE, I WOULD BE DEAD.

Sleepily, I combed my hair. It was 6am. And here I was, getting ready for school. No wait, a boarding school. NO WAIT, a BOYS boarding school.
'You ready?' My dad said. Yes, I was here in my dad's aparment. Who would ever know it?! 'You look great in that uniform. Just erm.. cut down on the makeup.' He said awkwardly.
I rolled my eyes. 'I'm just wearing eyeliner.' I said. I rolled my eyes.
'Thats great. You ready to go?' He said getting my school bag for me.
'Wait.' I sighed. 'They do know, that, you know, I'm a girl in this school. They do know a girl is actually coming to this school. I mean, I don't want them to be surprised or think that I'm in the wrong school or something.' I said nervously.
'I know. I was supposed to tell them about you coming but I never knew you were going to come or not. I couldn't reach your mum and when she gave me a message saying you will be coming tomorrow, I rushed to the airport. So I'm sorry. But we have female teachers so don't think your the only girl here. Well actually you are but your not the only female here, I mean, you are a girl but your here in a boy's school and its kind of -'
'Your rambling.' I said before he tells me his life story.
'Sorry, I'm just really stupid at times and I want to make it up to my only daughter.' He looked tired. Okay, I guess he was trying but still..
'Fine, if you want to make it up with me, then buy me a chocolate icecream.' I said cheekily and randomly. Whatever happened in the past, I shouldn't be mad at my dad. He had a reason and I've got to stop getting mad at him for no reason.
'Deal.' He smiled. 'Shall we go?'
I nodded and followed him out the room. We went down the stairs. Some teachers greeted Dad and they gave me a strange look. But I guess I should get used to them.
'Don't be nervous. You'll be fine.' Dad said reassuringly.
'I'm not nervous.' I lied. 'I just don't like it when people stare at me.' Well, it was the truth too. I hated it when people looked at me in that 'are you from another planet' look. It annoys the crap out of me. I used to get it all the time in the other schools. I'm not a bad girl, I just get really mad sometimes and can't stop myself. And I always have a reason for my madness. For example, the last school I just went to. He was treating me different from the rest of the students and it made me so mad. Once, is a warning. Twice, will end with blood. And it did.
We went through a lot of rooms and then my Dad stopped and told me to wait here. He went to the other side of the corridor and was talking to this lady. The lady was very beautiful in the natural way. She had black hair and brown eyes. When they stopped talking, my Dad went through the door. Wait a minute, where am I supposed to go? Shall I follow him?
The brown hair lady walked to me and smiled. She put her hand out to shake.
'Hi, you must be CeCe.' She said. She has a strong Scottish accent that reminded me of Finn. Will he be here? What if I see him? I shook her hand and smiled.
'And you are?' I said.
'I'm Miss Rain but you could call me Selma.' She said. 'Its really nice to meet you. You dad has told me a lot about you.'
I was surprised with this. He talked about me to people. 'Really? What did he say?' I said curiously.
'Just the general, that you are a great girl and he can't wait to meet you.' She said happily. 'But, hes told me your not happy about coming here.'
'Yeah. Its just a boy's only school. And its a boarding school too. 2 things that I'm not used to.' I said honestly.For some reason, I felt safe near her.
She nodded. 'I understand. When I came to this school, I was kind of nervous.'
'But thats different. Your a teacher. I'm a girl. A student. In a boy's school.' I said stressfully. I know I keep on repeating that its a boy's school but its just hard to take in. I was a misfit in the other schools and I will be beyond a misfit in this school.
'Don't worry, sweetheart. In a few days, you'll fit in in like everyone else. Just don't get worried. Wow, nice necklace.' She said. I looked at my angel shaped necklace.
'Thanks, my mum gave me it on my 14th birthday.' I said. I never knew a simple compliment like that would make me so happy. I was beaming. That reminded me. I have to phone Mum. I was thinking of not calling her because I was angry about the not telling me about the fact that I was travelling in a boy's school. If I was in a car, I would tell the driver to take me home. But I was in an aeroplane. I couldn't just go up to the pilot and say 'excuse me, can you turn the aeroplane around, I need to go shout at my mum.' He would think I'm crazy. But Mum, what is the reason for not telling me?
'Well its great.' She said. It took me a while, to find out what she
