I Was Hoping That You And I Might End Up Together
Chapter 1
I got out of the bus and run straight to my house, witch unfortunately was quite far from the bus stop. Finally I saw in the corner of my eye my house, the creamy walls and black roof. It was a nice and sunny day I run up the little hill to reach the doors to the house. I throw my bag in the corner and run to my mum. She was on a trace, at the moment I saw her I started screaming and jumping around.
“What happened?”
“I GOT THE SCOLARSHIP! I’M GOING TO ENGLAND FOR 3 YEARS!”
She had tears in her eyes, I run to her and gave her hug and started to jump again.
“Wait? 3 years? That means to be just a year!”
“Yes! I know but the changed it. We just have to pay little more and it’s 3 years. Here you can read it in the letter.”
“Alright, let me see!”
I run to the kitchen and one of my favorite songs came on the radio, I started to dance around and sing. Then I took a coke out of the fridge and went back to the garden.
“I’m so proud of you!”
“Thanks mum.”
“You should tell dad!”
“No I will tell him when he will be back! What’s for dinner?!”
“Pasta!”
I run to the dining room and sat down with a huge smile on my face, I never was that happy before in my life. I ate that pasta as fast as I could, which don’t happen often. Took my bag and went to my room upstairs, shoot the door and threw myself on the bed. I couldn’t believe what was happening. In that moment Antje popped in to my mind. She was my best friend well we didn’t meet witch was depressing but she also was trying to get the same scholarship. We meant to go together. I went for my laptop, turned it on and went to see if she was online. She was, and when I was just about to send her a message when I got about 3 messages from my friends with congratulations.
“Hey Antje… I need to tell you something… I GOT THE SCOLARSHIP!”
“OMG!? Are you kidding me?”
“Did you get the letter?”
“Yes.. yes I did… and well…”
“Are you going to tell me or not!?”
“I GOT IT!”
I literally jumped and screamed when I read the message. I thought this was a dream, a dream I didn’t want to wake up from. I run downstairs to my mum and started shouting again. I think she was a bit annoyed and worried if everything was okay with me.
‘ANTJE IS COMING TOO! SHE GOT IN!”
“That’s great honey. Dad will be back home in 30 minutes so try to calm down”.
“I will try my best!”
I went back to my room. Exchanged some messages with Antje just to kind of discuss some of our decisions, like we will be in a room together on the campus or that we will try to really study hard there, which we both knew won’t work that well but still. I went to the bathroom, took off my makeup and put on some baggy clothes (x). I heard that my dad came home, rushed down to greed him and well tell him the news. My mum was in kitchen I run to her and whispered “Don’t tell him anything, I want to have fun”. She looked at me and smiled then called my dad to come for dinner.
“Honey, did the letter came?”
“Witch latter dad?”
“The one about scholarships?”
“Oh that one…. Yes it did…”
“And..”
“Well… you know I don’t know why.. they send it to my school not here to the house…. And well I also talked to Antje.. and she also got hers. And well.. WE BOTH GOT IN!!!!”
He was in such a shook I could see that, he was staring at my while I was jumping around like an idiot. I had about one and a half of a week to get ready. I didn’t go to school at that time, I did big shopping with my mum, also with some food just in case. I was so excited, I started to pack myself on the same day I got the letter I was packing myself through Skype with Antje. We were meant to meet on a Munich airport so we will fly the same plane there. The school and campus was about 20 minutes from London, by tube. When I saw the pictures form the school and all around on the internet I couldn’t believe what I saw. There was like everything! I had one more day here in Poland with my family and then I’m off to UK and well probably I will come back for Christmas for about 2 weeks maybe. I went to sleep quite late because I could sleep of the excitement of living there, meeting new people and most important being there with my best friend Antje.
