(Flashback Nicki's Point of View)
"Mommy I'm nervous" 8 year old Nicki said. "Don't worry baby I'll pick you up by 3". Nicki frowned "okay mommy I love you", "okay baby get in the car". It was a 15 minute drive to Nicki's school. She was new to America, she was originally from Trinidad but she always knew English. She was pretty and her mother always told her so, she always wanted to go to school but she never thought she would have to leave her mother. Nicki and her mother were like bestfriends, she loved her mom and never imagined leaving her for more then 3 hours.
When they got to her school Nicki wouldn't get out the car. "Lets go Onika", "Mommy no! I don't wanna please take me home!" She watched her mother got out the car and she pouted. They both walked in hand and hand into classroom number 2. It was already 8 o' clock so everyone was seated. There was one empty seat near a quiet boy. The teacher introduced her as Onika. The "quiet" boy couldn't take his eyes off of her. She walked her mom back to the door and whispered "Mom I'm gonna love this school!" She kissed her and ran to sit next to him. "So what's your name?" She said while giggling.
