Healing

It was a Hot humid Florida day. The wind was blowing and the sun would shine with no sign of rain. Cara cared about none of this as she dragged herself from a sleepless night to prepare for her first day of school. She moped to her closet sifting through the odds and ends of new clothes she'd gotten earlier that summer, still packed from her trip back from Germany. She decides on a red black and tan stripped collard rugby and a pair of nice dress pants. Tossing them carelessly on the bed she takes a shower. Cara often contemplated how the new year would differ from previous years. Would there be new rules, new faces, new microwavable cafeteria food, will her clothes not look too different from the other girls? She steps out of the shower facing her mirror, still fogged from the steam. Wiping in clear with her hand she looks at herself. Her (finally) clear skin, newly tanned, Long brown curls and Hazel eyes. sighing she places her black rimmed glasses upon her face and changes in her room.Her mother knocks on the door " Are you ready"? Yes mom! She rolls her eyes. More then she hated waking up so early in the morning she hated being rushed. walking out of her room she grabs her backpack and slings it over her head across her body. She was ready to leave, pausing at the door she takes another look inside before shutting it.She smiles to herself.  This year, is going to be different from past years. She thought to herself. This year...I will remember forever.
