Helen's POV
Changing Schools was not part of the plan. At least going to Elite Academy was not part of the plan.
Most people would wonder why I would not want to be part of the "Elite Academy" where the richest wealthiest ,most popular families took their kids.
My school was filled with kids from very powerful families, from the geeks to the charming and popular.
But all of those powers and wealthy did not mean anything here in my school.
It's not like I did not like the school but I have heard so many rumours about the school and trust me they are not good rumours. But nothing about this school ever really comes out, they powerful parents always of cause prevents any of that from happening.
So you may understand why I did not enjoy going there, but I really did not have a choice. My guidance wanted me there because they felt and I did not want to be a burden on them.
It was going to be my third week of attending that school. I took in a deep breathe as I approached the gate.
Getting searched every morning was not exactly my favorite part of the day.
"Raise your hands miss" the security guard said politely and I did.
I did not want to cause a scene, which would lead to getting unnecessary attention which I wasn't ready for.
I was not attention craved like most of the students here. And I most definitely was not going to get it for a negative cause.
I got to my locker and picked out the books I needed to take home and study for the day, Just cause I was either going to forget or change my mind later on then I joined the large crowd of students that were headed to the cafeteria.
Then I felt my phone Vibrate in my pocket , I pulled it out and then looked at the Caller ID, it was Anne, Anne Blake was my Adopted Mom. But I did not exactly see her that way, she is my aunt. She was my Mother's closest cousin, and she decided to take me in after everything that had happened. "My parents death".
She got married to Bruce Grey. My mom's child hood love. And he also became my adopted Dad.
Bruce was a Musician, although he was once a psychiatrist but he was not making any money from it so he decided to follow his dreams and go into Music and as fate has it. He was making it and now he is even a Billionaire. I guess that is one of the reasons why I attend the Elite Academy.
Anne Grey was a Lawyer, how crazy is it. I still wonder from time to time how they are together. They just seem like two different people most of the time. And she also owns her Female under garment brand, which has been the best selling ever since she started. And she's also an activist which I admire, I think it came from her Lawyer side. Which I thought was very cool.
I thought adopting me would be a bad idea considering I did not hear any thing good about it. But when did I ever hear anything good about anything? Except for Chocolate cakes and Milkshakes.
I thought I would feel like a stranger in her home ,but I didn't. Considering I was already used to seeing her around. And Bruce was also a good friend to my family so I adjusted easily even after their wedding which happened a over year ago.
I wondered why she called, I specifically asked them not to call me while I was in school. I am not a brat or whatever you are thinking. I just wanted to focus on school while I was here.
If she called me ,then I guess something was wrong. I moved towards an empty hall so I could hear her properly. They chattering from the students was a bit distracting.
"Hey Anne" I said casually trying not to show the curiosity I felt from getting a call from her.
" Hi El" she replied, there was something new to her tone , like she had something big to tell me. I really hoped it was nothing bad.
" How is every thing going over there" I asked happily.
She had got a case she had to travel for, so she was on the other side of the world.
" Every thing is going on well, the case is looking good for us and I am so grateful" she said happily
" That's good news" I replied sounding very happy for her.
" Yes it is, we would be returning in five or six days" she blurted out
" That's soon, I thought you were not coming back until after two weeks " I said trying to sound uninterested but I failed at.
"Yes, Bruce show is ending tomorrow and the case might not take as long as expected, so we will be back sooner"
"Ok that's cool, is that why you called" I asked, cause that was not reason enough to break our rule.
" Uhm yes and I also want you to go to Damon for lunch or probably after school for some shoots for my new Body suits campaign that will be coming up soon" she said calmly
"Uhmmm..." I said not hiding the displease in my voice. I did not really have a problem going there for my lunch. Besides it was interesting, watching the shoots or editing the glamour and all. It was intriguing but it was harder to avoid the paparazzi when going in or out and I always had bad experiences with the paparazzi.
I could imagine her chewing her lower lip and batting her long beautiful lashes even when she knew I could not see it.
"I know how you feel about going there alone, but I could arrange a security team with you if you want" she said sweetly as she was trying to convince me.
"Don't worry about that, Paparazzi is not allowed around the school , I will just take the side gate out to go there" I said in defeat.
I did not like when they took extra care of me. They were doing a perfectly good job already and I didn't not want to burden them any more.
"Thanks baby, I'll let you do your thing now, call me when you get home after school ok"
"Yes Anne"
"Okay bye"
" Bye" I said finally as I ended the call, and placed the phone back in my pocket. I sighed, as I headed back to my locker to drop my bag.
