I wake up with the sound of my alarm going off and get up to do my early morning routine. I do my early stretching and exercises followed by brushing my teeth and taking a bath. I get dressed with my usual argyle sweater with my skirt, knee socks and my doll shoes. I really hated my clothes because they were ugly and their not my style either. I just wear them because of the slushy-throwing jerks at school aka the cheerios and the jocks.
Flash back:
It's my first day of school and I don't really want to attract any attention. I am wearing my black vest over my white v-neck shirt, dark blue jeans which were ripped slightly in the knees and my black high top chucks. As I enter through the door of McKinley high and I walk through the hallways to go to my locker, a jock suddenly splashed my face with an icy grape flavored slushy.
"Welcome to McKinley High, loser!" he said, earning some laughs from his other friends and turning round to leave.
"What the hell…." I thought. I didn't want to attract any attention from the others students so I just went to the nearest bathroom to wash my face and change my clothes.
After that, I would always get slushied so I just decided to buy some cheap clothes so that my normal clothes wouldn't get dirty because of the stains from the icy flavored drinks.
End of flashback.
After getting dressed and looking at the mirror, I step out my room to go down stairs and see my dad, Leroy cooking breakfast which was my favorite pancakes and my daddy, Hiram reading the early morning newspaper.
"Good morning dad, good morning daddy, hmm...Pancakes for breakfast' I said as I walked to the kitchen to get some pancakes and some OJ.
'Good morning star' the two said almost at the same time while smiling at their daughter.
'Rachel, I have some big news to tell you' Hiram said looking at me and Leroy while having his I've-got-some-big-news smile which makes us both curious of what his big news is exactly.
'What is it daddy? Are we going to move to New York or something' I say in a sarcastic voice while finishing up my breakfast to go to school.
'Yes star, were actually moving however not to New York but to California' Hiram said grinning to his daughter that seemed to freeze for a moment before having a shocked expression and then asking him tons of questions about her daddy's big news.
'What! Really were going to move!? To California? When? How long? Why are we moving there' She continue to ask all her questions not even pausing for the other man to answer her questions. After saying all her questions and calming down, her father started to explain the details about the sudden news of moving.
'Well….it's because yesterday when I was working, I was called by another doctor I know in California, she was a one of my closest friends in college and she said that one of their doctors quit because of personal problems and she wanted me to replace him, it was a great offer and opportunity so of course I would take the job.' He smiled to Leroy and Rachel both smiling and feeling proud of Hiram.
Me and my dad remained quiet, signaling for my daddy to continue with his explanation.
Proceeding with his explanation 'we will be living there for at least a year, my friend already gave us a place to stay in until we find our own. She also gave us our plane tickets but we will have to pay for it later. So let's pack our things right away because we will leave tomorrow.' As Hiram finished we all had huge smiles on our faces when I remember that I still have school.
'But daddy, how about school?' I said as I remembered about school and the glee club.
'Of course you will be studying there Rachel, there are lots of high schools there that have glee clubs too and we could still come back here after a year. I will also confirm to the school that you will be transferring tomorrow okay star?'
I thought about it and agreed to myself that moving to California would be a great idea and a great experience for me. I would also be able to transfer to a different school where I could make friends, not get slushied by jerks, and not having to act like 'Rachel Berry'.
