Marigold quickly got dressed. She was nervous, no wait, beyond nervous, it was her first day at a new school. She had a light breakfast, mainly to ensure she wouldn't feel sick due to anxiety. She packed her bag, no thanks to her dog who kept trying to play as she did so. "Mom, I'm going to drive to school today! I don't really feel like taking the bus." she called down to her mother from the top floor of their house. "Alright sweetie! What would you like for lunch?" her mom inquired. She was a nice, caring woman, but sometimes she treated Marigold like a 12 year old. She rolled her eyes "I'll buy lunch today!" she replied. There was no reply, she didn't know whether that was an answer meaning her mom understood or whether it meant she was packing for her. She slung her bag over her shoulder and rushed down the stairs, with her puppy nipping at her heels. Her mom was waiting by the door with a smile on her face...with a packed lunch. Marigold weakly smiled "Thank you mom" she hugged her and took the meal. She waved as she walked out to her small car. She got in and slowly pulled out of the drive way, and headed to school.
