Robert/Rose : Morning Darling (both smiling)

Annie: (She drew the dining chair opposite Cherry and sat down) Wow! My favorite meal, pancake(She took it and started eating)

Robert: You're supposed to get your uniform today

Annie: Probably (she mumbled, not looking up from her food)

Rose: (still eating) You're gonna meet some new friends today,so try to be nice, okay?

Annie: If they choose to be nice to me ( She replied with a grin) Dad,thanks for all the shopping yesterday, l had so much fun

Cherry: Sure you did,You had so much fun it went straight to your head and made you forget about today ( She said sarcastically, grabbing the glass of water next to her and drinking it all)

Annie: ( shooting her a mean looks) Cherry don't get in my nerves. it's way to early for that( She said, standing up right after)

Rose: You done eating?

Annie: Yeah,l don't wanna consume too much ' cause l don't want to feel heavy.

Robert: Are you all set? (He stood up, adjusting his wrist watch)

Cherry: Yeah,(She stood up, holding her lunch box)

Annie: (She went over to her Mom and hugged her) Mom, I'm feeling nervous (She said whispering to Rose)

Rose: It's okay to feel nervous, it's your first day at a new school (She said, gently patting her on her back before pulling away from the hug then Annie gave her a quick peck on her cheek and Cherry did the same) Take care Honey ( she said to Robert with a smile)

Robert: Take care,l love you (he said, pulling her into a hug,They all headed out to the packing lot, where Robert chose the Rolls-Royce Phantom Car, Everyone got in expect Rose who stood waving as Robert drove out of the driveway)

Annie: (She stepped out of her Dad's car as he drove off) Well, Here l am (She said, gazing up at the school building) Not bad at all, it's huge and really beautiful, even from the outside (Her eyes wandered over the students passing by in their neat uniforms) Nice Uniforms,and... Whoa! these kids are way too early, I thought l was on time, am l, like already late or what?

Ms.Jess: Are you Anniebell Dawson?(try to get a full sight of Annie)

Annie: OMG! Did someone just call my name? Wait, how would anyone even know me already? I literally just got here! Don't tell me I'm already getting popular?(She said to her self blushing then turned slowly to see who called her) Who is she? She doesn't look a student (she thought to herself)
