Modern Pride and Prejudice
The day went without a hitch. If you don't count our parking space being taken by a couple of mean girls, tripping over my own feet, nearly slipping in the cafeteria and getting the answer wrong when I put my hand up. And to top it all off, everybody thinks I am a stereotypical stuck- up snob. Everyone except a few people: Jane, of course. A girl called Charlotte Lucas and a boy called William Collins. He seemed very friendly with me, a little too friendly if you ask me. However we all sat down together for lunch and chatted like we were the best of friends.
Jane walked into the room at that point. "Some new students are going to be joining the school soon."
"Oh," I really didn't care. They were just people joining the school.
"and I hear they're really rich," she paused, " and good looking,"
I snapped at that point. "Honestly, I don't care. They're just people. People with a lot of money. Seriously, everything isn't about money or good looks,"
she looked quite taken aback at my sudden outrage.
"sorry," I muttered. Shoot! I'd upset her. "would you like to know more about me while we're here?" might as well.
"sure," she looked confused, but willing.
"okay," I took a big breath to get ready, "what would you like to know?"
"Ummmmmm, where were you born?"
"Derby. It's in the Midlands"
"When were you born?"
"1st April 1994"
"Ummmmm, I can't think of anymore questions at the moment, I'll ask you later, 'Kay? 'Night."
"night." I honestly just wanted to sleep.
