Cressida grabbed her jacket and pulled it on; she slipped into her army boots and shuffled towards the door, passing the mirror. She glanced at her reflection and sighed. A girl with tired looking eyes stared back, with wavy brown hair which was left out. As her eyes travelled down, she looked at her outfit. A blue and white stripped woolly jumper, a size to big on her and some black leggings. As it wasn’t so cold, she decided against a scarf, but at the last minute put on her blue beanie to tame her hair. Opening the door, she stepped out and closed it gently.

To the club she thought to herself as she shuffled towards her car, which was a bribe from her father. Obviously trying to gain her love through money and possessions. “If he cared, he wouldn’t need to buy me stuff” She muttered under breath as she reached forward and pulled the car door open. She sat on the driver’s seat and put in the keys, starting the ignition.
I don’t want to go though…. Silently she cursed her brother for making her go, though she would of went anyway, not wanting to get in any more trouble. Nonetheless, she dreaded it and the butterflies in her stomach made her feel even more nervous than she should be.

She couldn’t stall any longer, without another though, she drove off towards the school, hoping it would be at least bearable.
