"Selena! Selena wake up!" I heard my mom call me from downstairs. Today, I was going to start my first year of college at the Fashion Institute of Technology. Basically it is to do with fashion. And I was super excited.

"Be down in a minute mom!" I shout back down to her, not hearing a response. I shrug my shoulders and groan, lying back down in my bed. My bed was super comfy. I bit my lip and looked over to my left, looking at my gray kitty alarm clock, showing the time 9:12. What a great time to be awake I thought. I swung the sheets over me and got up in an instant, my hair in the ponytail I tied it into last night to go to sleep in. I looked in the mirror for a quick glance before walking into the bathroom and shutting the door behind me, locking it.

I unstripped myself of my pyjamas I wore last night, putting the Mickey Mouse matching t-shirt and bottoms into the hamper, along with my dark navy blue and gold fluffy socks. I grabbed a towel from the rack and quickly slung it across my body although nobody could see me, turning the shower on leaving it to warm up for a few minutes. I unlocked the door and opened it, walking into my room also coming across my dad along the way.

"Your mother wants to talk to you. It's important. You best hurry up," he sighs, rolling his eyes as he walks into the bedroom he and my mom shares. God, I wish my mom didn't share that goddamn bedroom with him, if I'm honest. He's a scumbag who doesn't deserve to walk the Earth, especially since he started doing what he's doing. "Plus I want to go for a shower quickly 'fore I go to work."

"Not really my problem Dad, especially since you go sleeping with women and dealing drugs every day and night of the week," I mumble the last part quietly to myself, hoping he didn't hear. I hear him tut and sigh, shutting the bedroom door after himself as I stop myself from grinning. I walk into my room and look for my phone, finding it on my dresser.

I walk back into the bathroom and lock the door again, connecting my iPhone 8 to the speaker we have in the bathroom and playing the album I Love You by The Neighbourhood, placing the towel on the hook next to the rack and putting my phone on the kitchen sink before untying my hair from the hair tie and hopping into the shower, the very warm water hitting my body and running through my hair.

10 Minutes Later;

I hop out of the shower and turn it off, grabbing the towel off of the hook and wrapping it around my body and turning the music off on my phone, unlocking the door and taking my phone into my bedroom with me where I shut the door and find my hairdryer under my bed (my room is super neat and tidy with things in places that I can easily find) and plug it into the wall, letting the towel drop from my body and turn the dryer on, drying myself down before finding some comfortable pyjamas and fluffy socks and putting them on.

"What's up Mom?" I ask, walking down the staircase and into the kitchen with my long length silvery blonde wet hair draped down my shoulders with my eye contacts in. "You wanted to see me, right?"

"Of course." she sighs, stopping cleaning the dishes and turning around to look at me. "Your college has called us. They want you to be there by tomorrow afternoon." she tells me the important information, nervously ringing her hands.

"What's wrong about it Mom? You don't seem pleasantly happy."
"Well that's the thing. We.. We have no idea how you'll be able to get down there as me and your father will not be available to take you down and.."
"And what mom?"
"And I just want to see my baby for one more day before she goes off to college."

I smile and start to bawl up as my mother starts crying right in front of me. "Oh Mom." I giggle, the tears starting to fall. "I love you millions and trillions!" I rush over to hug her, realising that I am going to start my first day of college tomorrow afternoon.

All sorts of things start rushing through my head;
Will I actually enjoy going to college?
Who will my roommates be?
Will I like them?
Will there be any gay guys there that can be my best friend?
Will the girls be bitchy and annoying and dislike me at first eye contact?
What will happen there?
What if I don't show up on time?
What if I don't show up at all?

I let go of my mom and she calms herself down, letting herself go back to washing the dishes as I go to head back upstairs. "Hey mom?" she turns around to look at me. "It'll be okay. I'll find someone to take me there."

"Oh but that's just it! I want to be the one who takes you there and help you get settled in and meet your new roommates." she babbles. "You know what? I will go call my works right now and take the day off." she grins, taking the phone by the side of her and walking out into the backyard.

I love my mom so much.
