Who will I meet?<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSarah! Get going.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m leaving, Dad.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWell, Hurry up. You\u2019re going to be late.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s my dad. He can be great at some moments. On a regular basis. I grabbed my sweater and ran out the door. I was walking through the ravine. I stopped to look around. The smell in the air was a sweet scent. Fall was going to come soon. I finally got to school. Packed with kids; Coming in for their first day too. I got my schedule. I thought we were going into class today but it ended at 10 o\u2019clock. So, I left. When I started walked. I saw a huge group of older students. They all had a cigarette in their hands. They seemed like the cool people at Danforth tech. I walked passed them. They smelled like cigarettes. Sitting on the train; thinking about those kids. The way they dressed. It was a style I never seen before.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSarah, you home?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYes, dad I am home.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWell are going to babysit tonight?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI don\u2019t know.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat do you mean, you don\u2019t know?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI just don\u2019t know.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo, you just don\u2019t know anything no more?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI guess so.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>I ran upstairs before he could say anything that would make me cry. So, I took a shower. Brushed my teeth, and then went to bed. Second day at school. Kind of went by slow. I met a couple of people. They seem cool. In French class it was pretty boring since I already knew all of it. My teacher seemed really nice. Danforth tech is a really old school. My mom even went there. When was the last time I saw her. Last time I could remember is when my mom and I got into a huge feud. Which I had no choice; but to go live with my dad. It was the end of near the end of grade eight. My mom and I had a fight. I would steal money from her. Just so I could actually be like the other kids in my school. The always had money to buy lunch and I was always the one everyone thought I was poor. I was the unusual one at school. I had not that many friends. Devon, she was the only best friend I had. Earl grey, Were I went in grade eight. That year was a blur. I was so different. I remember that summer. I grew up. I started to grow boobs. I dyed my hair Blonde. I had more excitement for life. <em>(not finshed)<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chapter One Are we frightened by our emotions? Do we run away from love?
