Chapter Four

Juniper.

“Juni, Juniper. Wake up. It’s time for school” my mum lightly shook me making me open my eyes.

“Good morning mum” I murmured as I got out of bed.

“You’re going to have to start setting alarms to wake you up because I might not always be around to wake you up. Hurry now and go shower and then come down for breakfast before you leave for school” she said as she left my room.

“Okay mummy” I answered walking into the bathroom to pee.

After I finished doing my business, I brushed my teeth and took a nice shower. I wore my bathrobe and walked into my room feeling fresh. Opening my closet I brought out my new uniform that hung on the rack. My uniform was a white shirt with a sewn in red bow tie, blue blazer with the school’s badge on it, a short trimmed blue pleated skirt.

I put on my underwear and finally wore my uniforms, the skirt length reached my mid thigh and I felt a little exposed by it but I just pushed it to the back of my mind. Pairing it with my knee length white stockings and shiny black loafers. I brushed my curly full hair letting it fall down in soft heaps unto my shoulders as I placed my pink hair band on my head using it to push back my hair from my face.

I had already packed my backpack last night putting everything necessary I would need for school. I applied my nude peptide lip tint to my lips to make it moist and shiny, wore tiny pearl shaped earrings and spritzed myself with my favorite perfume which had a lavender scent.

I unplugged my phone from charging and looked at myself in the full mirror. I looked gorgeous and I gave a full on smile admiring how cute I looked in my new uniform. Taking quick mirror selfies of me in my new uniform, I walked out of my room feeling really good and hope all goes well for my first day.

My mum dropped me off at school since I didn’t know the way, but she explained how I could get back by taking the subway. The pictures online didn’t do this school much justice because as I stood right outside I was knocked off my feet at how majestic it looked.

The building stood tall with historic architectural features with a huge banner hung from the roof with the school’s crest and name spelt out in full welcoming students for a new school year. Students filtered outside in small crowds looking so posh and classy in their uniforms, most of their accessories, shoes and bags designer brands.

The nerves immediately came back in full force as I stood stuck wondering how I was going to fit in with all of these elite wealthy kids.

Time was running out and if I kept on standing outside like a fool I’d miss my first class and end up making a bad first impression of me to my teacher. I pushed the nerves to the back of mind, walking hurriedly into the school putting on my resting bitch face ignoring all the curious looks by the other students.

On getting to the reception office after asking politely from students for directions, I walked in coming to face a middle aged looking woman who sat at her desk staring at her computer screen typing in something.

“Good morning” I greeted getting her attention.

“Hello, you must be the new transfer student?” She asked curiously

“Yes, I’m here to collect my class schedule” i answered

She opened the side of her desk bringing out a small sheet of paper and handing it to me.

“Your first class is about to start, you should hurry” she advised nicely.

“Thank you” I said as I hurried out of her office looking straight for my locker so I can put some of my stuff in it.

Finally able to locate my locker, I unlocked it with the combination written at the back of the paper. I removed my text books and notes from my backpack and arranged them neatly inside.

I had homeroom first but I had no idea where that was, I noticed a girl not that far from my locker putting her things in hers so I closed my locker and walked up to her politely asking her directions to where I could find my homeroom.
