| On the first day of the new term and Zoe's first day at her new school Zoe nearly over slept and kept getting lost in school when she was on her own. There wasn't really anyone she knew and everyone seemed so different from the school in England. Zoe felt uneasy whenever she was in the lessons even though she was sat near Vicki. They had to sit boy-girl in some of the lessons which didn't really help Zoe fit in her first day and there was a lot of homework given even on the first day of term. The work in Hong Kong were said to be one of the hardest in the world by all the adults Zoe had heard from and now she knew what they ment. Well at least it was a lot harder work than the relaxed English school which she went to. Zoe already started to miss her school and friends in England. There were also lads and girls who seemed to be picking on anyone younger then themselves and always hanging around in gangs here and there around the 'unseen' corners around school where they can smoke. Some of these Zoe reconised from their tutor group. When she asked Vicki she said that they were in a group named F6 who claimed that F4 was named after them. There are 6 main gang members but 2 have moved abroad and the others have their own tutors at home as they are all from some of the richest people's sons in Hong Kong. One of them is the son of this posh school's headmaster. After dinner registration there was a new pupil coming in joining their tutor group tommorrow morning and rumours say that F6's 4 members will be coming back to school for some strange unknown reason. Because Zoe was a bit lost on some of the work Alec offered to come over that night to do a one night tutor period but in the end he said he was busy and Alex appeared at Zoe's door instead. Alec finally left at about 8pm and Zoe carried on doing her homework for another hour and then went online. There was only one friend from England on msn nicknamed 'out-a-luv' who used to to be in Zoe's tutor. Zoe: Wot's up? Just a nickname or wot? OTA: Came to find you earlier. Really unhappy right now and no ones here to listen to me. All on my own in my house right now...u busy? Zoe: I've got nothing to do anyway. Been doing school work for ages now. So wot's up with u and Richard then? Out-a-luv felt much better after finding someone to talk to and Zoe was happy to be at help. Zoe's eyes were hurting and David wanted to go online on their new computer. So Zoe went into the kitchen and tide up the rubbish bin liner and went to put it for the granny that comes every day to collect the rubbish on every floor of the flats. When she opened the door she saw a large dark object fall on top of her and heard grumbles. Two more figures appeared from the stairs and grabbed whoever had fallen drunk on Zoe. She then stared at them thinking who these people are. The two men behind were young adults about in their 20's and the drunk person was about Zoe's age. Zoe: Get Off me!! 2BG: Sorry miss. The two men picked up the person on top of Zoe up and Zoe saw who it was. She slammed the door shut and hit the person's forehead. As Zoe was going back to her room she heard the someone knocking on the door and another voice screaming that it hurts. Zoe stood still thinking if it was a good idea to leave them outside her door screaming like that. After a few minites of thinking Zoe went back to the door and was about to open it when the door swung open and hit Zoe's fingers. Zoe: Who the..!! Mum? Mum: Zoe, Why have you left these poor people at the door? Zoe: I er.. Mum: Boys take him into the 3rd room on the right 2BG: Thanks Miss. Mum: Don't you reconise Ken? Zoe: Wish i couldn't Mum: Oh, don't say that. You two look great toget... Zoe: Mum! What are you trying to say? Don't you need to go for a bath or something? Mum: I'm going back out now. A Ken's mother is downstairs waiting for me. We won't be coming back tonight so take care of ken as he is a guest in the house. See you tomorrow Zoe: Wait but.. Mum: don't be late for school. David will be staying over at ken's house with us too. The door was closed and Zoe was left straing in disbelief at the white door. BG1: Miss, where do you keep the towels? Zoe: Call me Zoe miss doesn't sound right. I'll get it for you Zoe went to get the towel and soaked it in warm warter and went into the guest room. When she went in no one was there and she heard a noise next door coming from her room like glass smashing onto the ground |
