Day 1508: 5 Minute Freewrite: Tuesday - Prompt: hello boys

“Hello boys” was the first words Mrs Sarah said that got my attention after she noticed I had not raised my head up since I entered her office. I was 9 years old, my mum had just decided to change my elementary school to Sonia Elementary school which was located on the other side of the highway bridge. She said it was too risky for her crossing the highway bridge to pick me up everyday from school after work.

On the morning I was to resume my new school I had started putting a long face after pondering through the night how I am going to cope with new friends and the new surroundings. I had already told my friends the previous day it seems I was going to continue with them anymore, Micheal was the first to embrace after the test started hugging and shaking me goodbye. I was to miss my old friends in school and not knowing what to expect in my new school kept me all night. Mrs Sarah the principal had noticed I wasn’t happy coming to the new school(something she knew it’s common among children who never wanted changing their old school) after seeing my mum held my hand down as we were moving towards her office to register. As I raised my head up then I noticed I wasn’t the only one in her office, two other parents had bring their wards also to register for the new session. Mrs Sarah a soft and welcoming woman was wearing a smile already before I raised my head up called everyone together to talk to us. She had a cool voice to softens after when she had convinced us of the things to benefit and enjoy in our new school. In less than few minutes, we were eager to begin and meet our new friends, also the playground was full of so many instruments to play with which got our interests too. I had no option than to adapt to the new environment and I later came to love the school afterwards.
