My First Glince

How it all started

Julia, are you alright? mother asked

I didnt respond, I just kept looking out the window of the taxi, it felt like a harness pulling me back so i wont answer, I just looked outside at the darkness and rain.

 

excuse me, excuse me mother said as she stopped the driver, this is our stop

okay maam have a safe flight the driver said as he helped father get our laugage from the trunk.

I opened the door, and dawdled to the airport door like i wasnt in a hurry

Julia mother cried panicly, please help Leon and your father

I dwelt in silence, staring at the ripples of the rain on the ground

Julia, did you hear me?, go and help Leon and your father with the laugage she said angirly

I didnt answer, nothing, nil, I just walked to help Leon and Father

I knew the flight was nigh going to leave, It was just indefinent to me why Leon didnt seem to care about us moving to New York, he has many friends her in Montana, unlike me who tryed to fit in, maybe its true what people say only one twin gets "accepted"

Julia common, father said as ran to check in the bags

 

The line went fast, when we got to the security thats when it felt like an eternity, standing next to me was a handicapped young man, say about 21. He was pushed by a nurse, that seemed not to care much about him, i could tell. I could tell because she didnt bother to try to get his wheelchair balanced to get through the slim line. I had alot of pity, and decided to go and help the man.

 

When I got infront of the line, the security woman checked me, than my bag

Jimmy I think we have a problem the lady said on her walky talky as she checked my bag

What seems to be the problem? mother asked as she interrupted us

we found this the lady said as she handed mother a bottle of champaign

thats not mine! I yelled wondering how it got in my bag

than whos is it? mother asked very angerly

I dont know, but i sware to you, I never put that in there I said feeling blamed

 

Enough Julia, we'll talk about this later, mother said harshly upset with me

Ma'am its alright now we just need to check all of you in by the front, because if we find one we expect more the lady said calmly

But our flight leaves in 10 minutes, we wont be able to make our flight mother said worried

Well its against the airports policy to let you through this gate, without double security check 

 

 

Julia,cant believe you Leon said blaming it all on me

Darlings unfortunately we will not be able to make the flight Father said sadly

 

In my mind I couldn't seem to put it straight, though I thought of one possibility How that bottle of champagne got into my carry on bag- maybe Leon? I knew he couldn't let go of all his memories in Montana, so he set me up, he set all of us up, so we wont be able to move

 

So when's our next flight? I asked hoping to have an answer

Next Flight? You think we can afford another flight? We missed this flight, and we don't get our money back, so you want us to pay for another flight?, and its all because of you Father said yelling at me

 

I looked at Leon in a face to show that I know it was him, that put the bottle in my bag, he grinned back

I wanted to get him back so I took $100 out of my savings and handed it to father

 

Father took the money and looked at me, I looked back emotionless to show him that I was serious

We bought the next tickets to New York, we boarded the plane

When I got to my seat, I saw a boy, tall, dark, and handsome, he looked familiar, but I knew it would be surely impossible for him to be going to my school, a below middle class public school, and I could tell because of his manners, clothing and it gave it away since he was sitting in first class

I couldn't help but just look at him, as he turned around at looked at me, at caught me staring at him, he gave me a smile and looked away

 

I thought there could be no way he could've been smiling at me, a below middle class brunette sitting in the back of the plane sitting next to the bathroom, I'm not his type, he's looks like a boy, that would like a dumb blonde, not a smart brunette like me

 

I blushed and looked away, he came to the back of the plane and just happened to go to the restroom, after 10 seconds he came out, and his diamond platinum Rolex, just happened to get stuck in my hair. It was mere he did it on purpose

Sorry he apologized as he got it out of my hair

Oh its okay I answer red as a tomato

My names Jacob he said

My names Julia i replied

he looked me in the eyes

Julia, sweet like roses, what your last name?, may I ask? he said being really curious

Roberts, what's yours?

Madison  he answered

Oh cool like Madison Square Garden, In New York I said randomly being  embarrassed

Yea, I was actually named after my inheritance, They owned a nice building there Jacob said

Interesting, I said really not knowing what to say

That's actually the reason why I'm going, well one of them Jacob said

Oh cool, I said smiling

What's your reason? He asked

Well, I'm moving there I answered

Oh, that sounds great, I'm also moving there later this week Jacob said

Really I said in shock, but I was very lost

Yea, What school will you be attending he asked

P. S. 291 I replied

Pardon he asked confused

Public School, I asked really embarrassed

Oh, He said

What school will you be attending? I asked already knowing its going to be a rich school

Richmond Bay Highs, But just for my curiosity, may I asked how old you are? He asked curiously

I am sixteen going on seventeen, you? I asked thinking about lying about my age and saying seventeen

I'm seventeen going onto eighteen, so your in 11th grade am I right? He asked

No actually, I'm in honors so they skipped me one grade ahead, I'm in 12th grade I said

Oh, your a senior? He asked

Well yea, I guess I replied

He smiled, So I smiled back

Please go to your seat sir the flight attendant told  Jacob

Okay, So I'll see you later Jacob said walking down the isle of the plane

Jacob, I called, He turned around

What made you like me? I asked as if it just came out of my mouth randomly

Your cute he said

Me? I blushed

He smiled as a respond

Well, Its just that I thought you'd like a rich spoiled blonde I said really insecure about what I am really saying

Like Adele Aspit? He asked

Who's Adele Aspit, I asked really needing an answer

My ex he said just walking down the isle without turning back

 

 

Keep dreaming Leon said

He made me furious

And why, I paused-would you think that? I asked

Julia, Your never going to see that guy again

 

Julia, I'm just saying this as your brother, your not going to go to his school Leon said

I double thought it through

Well, maybe I could switch to his school? I tried to say to myself but it just came out

You have 20 grand, he said trying to sound wisely

I didn't respond, after a while a flight attendant came to me and handed me a bread basket

No thank you I told her

But, that young man over there send it for You she said

Jacob turned around

Thanks I told her

As she walked away I realized it wasn't a bread basket, it was a basket with a rolled up paper

Oh My Gosh I said so exited and loud it brought the whole group of passengers looking

What? Leon said trying to calm me down

A scholarship to RichMond Bay Highs I said so shocked

Now I knew Jacob really did like me! The rest of the flight I thought do i really want to go to Richmond Bay Highs?

Am I going to fit in?, what about that Adele girl? Am I going to have a hard time making friends? And millions of other random questions flying into my head.

Should I change myself? My personality, looks, everything? Before I knew it i fell asleep, I had a dream, that I was the center of attention in Richmond Bay Highs, every time I walk into the school, boys and girls make way, for me Julia Roberts. I had assistants editing my yearbook, and of course people helping me what to choose for the senior prom, because of course that's where I'll be chosen as Prom Queen.  

Julia, dearest Julia, wake up, mother said, as I woke up I saw the whole plane empty.

Julia, we arrived a half an hour ago.

I got up and walked down the isle, and thought where's Jacob?, I really had to tell him something, I need his review, his tips and everything I need to know about Richmond Bay Highs, except the fact that no plaid allowed.  

Mother look I said tiredly as I showed my mom the scholarship.

Great, mother said not even paying attention and understanding the value of it.

So can I go? I asked hoping she'll come to her scenes

Well, me and your father must speak about it first
