As Asteria ran down the stairs, she lost her footing and slipped and fell onto her behind onto the floor. She rubbed it as her mother walked over to check on her as she was smoking a cigarette. Her mother took the cigarette out her mouth as her daughter got up from the floor.

"What the hell are you doing?" said Asteria's mother who was chuckling at her.

Her mother was in a black pant suit with a white dressy shirt under it showing most of her chest. Her mocha colored hair was hanging down to her back and her beautiful Amber eyes stared down at her daughter curious of what was going on as her cigarette burned in her hand.

"I wanted to make sure I made you something before you headed out for that meeting. I don't want you to be hungry," said Asteria as she walked over to the kitchen still rubbing her butt.

"I will be fine sweet heart. It's a quick meeting so I don't think I will be that hungry," said her mother who took another smoke and began to put her shoes on.

Asteria looked annoyed as she placed a pan angrily down onto the counter but she allowed her mother to leave without having anything to eat. She decided to clean around the house as she thought about what she wanted to do. She was awaiting a letter from a school she wanted to attend and it was making her anxious. Cleaning tended to help her ease that nervous behavior so she started sweeping the kitchen floor and she moved onto to wiping down the counters but was interrupted by the door bell. She headed to the door and opened it to reveal the mail man.

Ever since her mother and her moved into the town of Limestone two days ago she was introduced to a different type of neighborhood compared to her old one. The mail man wanted to greet them every visit they had with him so far along with the kind neighbors who introduced themselves the day before. 

The mail man would knock on the door and ask them how their day was going and attempted to get to know them. Asteria thought he was being polite but at the same time all of his talking was a pain. She was saved when her eyes locked onto a letter in his hand with the emblem of the school she was waiting for a response from. She quickly snatched the mail out of the man's hands and closed the door in his face.

She leaped onto the couch and opened up the envelope. She started to read it and it revealed that she got into the school after all. She jumped up from the couch and started to dance in a weird but yet cute way. She regained her normal composure and went ahead and texted her mother that she got accepted. Her mother sent a smiling emoji and a thumbs up emoji to congratulate her. After hearing such great news, Asteria wanted to go out to enjoy a nice tour of Limestone since she didn't get a chance to do it yet with her mother.

She got out of her t-shirt and shorts and dressed herself into ripped light blue jean overalls, white slip ons, a white crop top underneath, her bracelets, and her choker necklace. She placed her hair, which was the same color as her mother, into a messy bun and put on some make up but enough to keep her natural look. She walked out and the sun hit the several piercings on her ears and her nose piercing making them bling.

She had short distance from her school so she went by to look at it and she was amazed at how spacious the land was and how huge the school was in general as well. She then took the bus to the shopping district. She knew she had to leave as soon as she arrived so she wouldn't end up spending money which she loved to do when it came to clothes. She went ahead and walked to the business district where her mother was currently at. She left that district after having no interest and made her way to a lake which was very crowded by teenagers.

As she walked onto the sand to get closer to the lake, people were staring especially the boys who looked very much interested in the new girl in town. Asteria noticed their glances and gave them a smile that sent them spiraling and made the girls around jealous while some girls reacted with the boys in a good way toward Asteria. Asteria sat down on the sand in an area to herself but that was quickly interrupted by a girl who landed herself flat onto her stomach beside her causing Asteria to jump.

The girl was wearing a blue bikini, she had sun glasses on her forehead, and dimples which showed as she smiled at Asteria. Her dark beautiful long blue hair was what got Asteria's attention along with her blue eyes.

"Hello! Have we met before?" said the random girl with a wide grin on her face.

As the girl laid there, Asteria looked at her confused until a boy came walking up beside the girl. He had no shirt on showing water dripping down his toned ripped body, he was wearing red swimming trunks, a wrist band, and his dark brown hair was curly and faded on the sides and and the back of his hair. Asteria made eye contact with him immediately and his handsome looks made her blush as he smiled at her. The girl who was beside her then suddenly pinched Asteria's leg causing her to yelp and the boy to look embarrassed.
