Story 2

This is a story about friendship no matter how big something stuffs up there’s always a way to fix it and how everyone should be treated equally no matter what’s happened or what they have done everyone deserves second chances.

It Was early morning in 1995 my first day at highschool i was so excited and nervous but mainly excited. My new school was called hornby high school.

Ugh i forgot to introduce myself my name is Jennifer, Jennifer lawrence and some stuff about me my birthdays on a leap year and since it’s on a leap year, my parents told me to pick a birthday i picked my birthday to be on the 23rd november why? I honestly don’t know.

Okay so i got changed did my hair, polished my shoes had breakfast and did my teeth. Then while i was doing my teeth mum started yelling at me saying “HURRY UP JENNIFER IT’S YOUR FIRST DAY AND YOU’RE ALREADY LATE” I spat the toothpaste out and ran right into the car to be honest it hurt and i swear i had a bump on my head.

Once i arrived at school mum took me to the office and the person there asked my mum is she wanted to go back and they would look after me. You would think she would be more than happy leaving me on my first day at high school but no she had to stay with me all my excitement left i was really really really really really really nervous about what everyone would think i mean me walking with a teacher and my mum this day couldn’t get worse.

Guess what i was wrong it got worse. Once i was in class my mother decided to stay the day. I did all my work and everything was good the only downside was my mother, my stupid mama thinking it would be okay spending the day with me,i’m not in preschool no more i’m not in kindergarten or primary why would she do this to me how dare, she my stupid rude mama.

Okay so the next day i arrived in my class happy as ever because my big mama wasn’t there but it only got worse dun dun dun.

Okay so i was in my class on my phone listening to try not to sing songs and oh my gosh some random kid came up to me her name was latesha she said “is you’re mummy here bubba” i said no, she comes on first days. “Oh little bubba needs her mummy to help her” “no i don’t” says Jennifer crying.

Then since it was morning and they were in form class there was only like 12 students there and the teacher was in the staff room doing whatever she was doing i can’t believe staff don’t let students in there, like what are they hiding? Are they talking about how my mother hangs out with me the whole day, or about other students are they planning to kill students or what,nothing surprises me.

Okay so as i was crying another kid came in and I was expecting her to make fun of her but she didn’t she came up to me and said are you okay? I say awkwardly “yeah i’m okay” she had said well my name is Quinn and if you need to talk or anything i’m here okay? I say “YAY” Quinn looked confused so i shut my big mouth and smile it was a awkward smile. I say “actually can i talk to you now if you’re free?” Quinn says “sure what’s troubling you?” i say “Well this girl was making fun of me for having my mum with me for the whole day and i don’t know how to stop it” Quinn says “Well leave that up to me” Then says “Who was the person who was being rude to you” Jennifer awkwardly points to Latesha. Alundra storms up to Latesha and says “leave her alone what’s the matter with you? She’s new” Latesha cracks up laughing and manages to respond after a while “ She got her mum to go to school for the day, she needs a guardian” Quinn says “Well you got your grandma to come to it’s the same thing” I manage to respond with “ Well my mum aint that old” Quinn says “ Shut your mouth if you want this to work” I shut up A.S.A.P

The week went as slow as possible until i finally had the courage to ask if i could hang out with Quinn, i mean i really wanted a friend and she was one of the nicest in the class. So when i asked Quinn if i could hang out with her she said”Yes”,it was because she had seen me by myself for the whole week. And i guess she had sympathy for me. I mean how embarrassing is it to walk around the school on your own. So i exchanged numbers with Alundra, man i felt stink when she saw my phone i had a Nokia 3310 and she had a samsung galaxy s6 Edge Plus man was i jealous. So that day when i got home i walked in the door my mother asked me how my day at school was but i just ran to my room and slammed  the door behind me i did not want her to know what happened today. The night went slowly i couldn’t go to sleep till like 11:00pm, and i woke up 4:00am, and then my alarm went off.

Omg you should know my alarm ringtone this is the link to it My Alarm. and this is my ringtone i know terrible idea having songs i like for ringtones and alarms and that but i got it for my calls and that okay so this is my ringtone My ringtone

Okay so in the morning Jennifer excitedly was waiting for Quinn and she wasn’t there the first day, or the next day, or the next few weeks i messaged her saying where are you? She messaged saying i got kicked out of school, i did the crying emoji and said what the hell why? Quinn says Oh my gosh you're so gullible Jennifer it's hilarious,but then i say but where are you i haven’t seen you in ages, and shes bullying me again Please come back, i need you, what will i do without you there to stop her bullying. Every time that she bullied me,it got bad to worse, to terrible Quinn messages back saying i was in a car accident i’m in hospital right now, i may not make it out i’m in a wheelchair right now, don’t tell anyone i don’t want anyone to know . Jennifer says okay and Latesha storms over to me and takes my phone saying you texting your mummy again huh bubba i say give it back with fury. Latesha read the messages to the class and like in less than 10 minutes the whole school knew Quinn was in a wheelchair for a while and it was everyone's gossip and Jennifer got bullied even more.

3 weeks later Quinn arrives at school and walks into class and everyone was laughing at her.

Quinn was like what’s going on? They all laugh saying you were in hospital in a wheelchair lame,lies your dog probably hurt his leg so you took care of him for a long time.

Quinn looked like she was going to burst into tears and yelled at me saying “HOW COULD YOU I TRUSTED YOU!” and she ran off crying.

Now i have no friends nothing my only friend gone. I decided to take my phone back and stormed off to the office. I missed the first class which was Music, i was really bad at it but i loved it, i had never missed music before i was heartbroken, but something had to be done. I asked to see the principal and said it was urgent, i saw him his name was Mr Anderson and he came as soon as he could and he took me to a room so we could talk, just me and him.

As we were talking least i knew there was someone who didn’t hate me. I told him everything and he told Quinn to come he said it was urgent she came and said what is Jennifer doing here?, Mr Anderson said she's trying to solve something.  Mr Anderson had told Quinn everything that Jennifer had already told him. I said that Latesha took my phone and showed the whole class. I didn’t want to show anyone.

After 2 months of humiliation

It was almost My birthday, I was in a mix from from happy and sad.

I arrived in class and for the first time ever Quinn was in class before me. They talked for awhile and Quinn said it’s your birthday today right I say yeah why? And Quinn says i have a birthday present for you i started crying, don’t worry it was happy tears, extremely happy, Quinn goes in her bag and takes out 6 Presents i said “Omg that’s way more than what my mother gave me, she gave me two pairs of socks” Quinn says well it’s your lucky day The first present Quinn gave me was a new Samsung galaxy s8 Quinn said this is better than my phone you just might have to put your sim card in it. And Quinn told me to open my second one and omg it was $100 again i got told to open my third present was a surface pro and the fourth was a bff necklace as i open my fifth i say are these really all for me Quinn says of course it’s your birthday right? I say yeah so i open the last one and it was a samsung galaxy tab s3 i started crying again (happy tears)  Why does this keep happening.

Interval Quinn took me to the art room and said this day hasn’t been perfect but just in case i'm sick or gone for a while here's the last surprise. I thought those were the last gifts I say Quinn says “this isn’t really a gift man”

Quinn brings them out...

To my surprise there were two people and i say who are these people Quinn says “these are some of my other friends meet Olivia and Mia” Mia says konnichiwa, i say Konnichiwa back,even though i didn’t know what it meant. Next Olivia says any friend of Quinn is a friend of ours Mia says onamae wa nan desu ka? I repeat it not knowing what it meant onamae wa nan desu ka and Mia says excuse me that means what is your name Mia looked offended but i said sorry i’m new at japanese, oh and my name is Jennifer, Jennifer Lawrence.

So the next few weeks were perfect i had not one friend but three friends, and on my walk home, my mum said hey, but not how was school, I guess because the first time my mother had asked I had ran and slammed the door but since i was in a good mood, i said mum i’m sorry for slamming the door a few months ago, i was just in a bad mood, but if it helps today was awesome and thanks for my socks, i love them so much, My Mum actually says sweety i got you a iphone 7 I go emotional and i don’t have any idea why.

I say thanks Mum and i showed her my other presents and she said they are awesome who gave them to you i say Quinn mum says just her i say yep and then i say she got me two more friends to this turned from the worst year to the best.

Several years later we’re still close friends but throughout the School days we would not be in the same classes, but some of the classes were the same, we were happy to see each other in the classes, so we actually could talk, when we had the chance. We all wished that we could be in the same classes all day everyday but i guess not all wishes come true, having friends was my biggest wish, and that's the main wish i love and will treasure.

My mum was getting old and sick once we were year 11 and Quinn had to go to a funeral for her dog charlie, and nothing was the same since that. I had to look after my Mum, and Quinn looked after her dog after school everyday, and she couldn’t hang with us anymore.

So we couldn’t meet up at least Mia and Olivia had each other nothing ,Interesting happened in their life they were plain boring, most the time.

My mother got rushed to hospital a few nights later after a heart attack, after another few nights she was back to normal and i went back to school and Quinn still wasn’t their.

I messaged her saying please come back to school and she said okay if it makes you happy. Quinn wasn’t there during interval or lunch and she wasn’t there for the whole day and I didn’t know why, Quinn told me she’d come, and she wouldn’t respond to my messages, this was very unlike her, straight after school i messaged her “WHERE ARE YOU???” i got sick of this, I biked to Quinns house and Quinn’s mother had gone to work, The door was unlocked which must’ve meant Quinn was home, I was coming up with a lot of questions to ask her while walking through the doorway and up the stairs.

To my surprise Quinn was lying there on the floor in a pool of tears, there was charlie, Quinn manages to say “he’s gone” and she cries again and again. As usual i didn’t know what to do so i comforted her for a good 30 minutes and then went back home.

The next day at school Me,Quinn,Mia and Olivia were planning to meet up like usual, but again Quinn didn’t arrive, we took notice but i told the group about what happened but a week later we hadn’t took notice of anything that happened but then the principal called us in.
