They Can't Know

Emma's P.O.V:

This is my first day of 12th grade at my school. I'm finally a senior. My last year at my school, finally. I'm not poor but I'm not rich either. My mom died of cancer when I was five. My dad's name is Aaron. He remarried 5 years ago to a monster named Callie. She is the typical evil stepmother. She hates me and I hate her. Unfortunately, I have a four year old half sister named Esmeralda. I'm convinced she is pure evil. She pulls my hair, ruins my things and gets me in trouble for the things she does!

My dad and I barely talk ever since he sent me to that school. I've been going there ever since I was 14. Callie is pretty much the reason I go to that stupid school.

My school is a private school. We have to wear uniforms, but it does save me like 20 minutes in the morning. The school is called Mrs Richard's private boarding school. It's so strict there. I live there except for in the summer and on holidays, that's when I'm not a prisoner. I have a new roommate each year. Apparently my new roommate's name is Raina. Girls are placed with girls and boys are placed with boys. It's just the way it works.

These are the most strict rules at my school:
1-must be in uniform at all times
2-must be lady like or a gentlemen(I don't even know what they mean by this one)
3-no running
4-do not leave the property at all during the school year, unless you have permission from a teacher
5-boys and girls are not allowed to interact, unless special school event
6-no physical or mental abuse

And the list will go on forever. They literally have a book of all rules, and if you break the same rule over 10 time, then you have to read the entire book. I forget most of them because the list is so long. I've gotten in trouble a lot. I'm kind of rebellious. I've had to read the book of rules 3 times and have gotten punished so many time, but they were for stupid reasons! One time, my math teacher got mad at me because my socks has a strip of blue at the top when they were supposed to be all white. The teacher that gets you in trouble gets to decide your punishment.

The school looks like a castle. It's surrounded by a bush fence. It's huge. The uniforms suck. Girls have to wear a navy blue plaid skirts and knee high socks with a white top and navy blue tie. The boys have to wear navy blue pants with a white top and navy blue tie. We all get a sweater, but it's so ugly.

I hate school. If I had to choose a favorited subject, it would be English. I love to write. I write stories, poems and my favourite thing to write is music. I love singing and playing the guitar. According to my dad, I get my talent from my mom. I don't remember her that much, I do remember that she used to sing me to sleep.

My father made me go to this hell he calls a school, because he says that mom would have liked me to go here and that I need to become more lady like(that was my stepmom's idea). I begged my dad not to send me here, but that got me no where. My stepmother convinced him to send me here, and I'm pretty sure she sent me here so that she didn't have to be around me. And now I'm at Mrs. Richard's private boarding school.

I have a pet dog named Bo. He's a black and white Great Dane. Bo is 4 years old. We got him when he was a puppy. I was 13 when we got Bo. He is the sweetest dog you will ever meet. But I only see him in the summer. The rest of the time, my dad takes care of him.

And this is just the beginning of a year of pure sadness.
