Kaylie

Coming from the United States to Scotland for a year abroad was difficult for Kaylie. She felt she may never fit in anywhere, didn't know the language very well, and was very nervous about meeting new people there. Her father forced her to go to college and also forced her to go to scotland as that was where her biological mother was from.

She was a little excited about studying abroad, but also very scared about the culture as well. She had never met her mother, but knew her father loved her very much. She never recovered when her mother, Karen, left her at twelve years old. She never understood why she would just leave her like that. She loved her mother. She wanted her a part of her life. But no matter how hard she tried her mother had other pland for her own life. She wanted to be free, and having a child and being married made her feel trapped.

So going to scotland made her very nervous. She didn't want to run into her mother or anyone else for that matter. She was studying medieval history and was very excited about studying abroad. But there was something about it that made her scared.

She arrived in Scotland at half past five in the evening. She found her dorm and decided to go on a late evening prowl around the area. She went to a resturant and ate some of the food there. It was delicious. As she was walking back she found a fliar at a bus stop. It spoke of an art club where they had art classes. Kaylie thought this would be a good way to get into something interesting on the weekends since it offered weekend classes.

The next day was a hard day for her. Many of the people in her study abroad class spoke english, however, they seemed to not really like to be around her. She fifured they were shy with American people, but she wasn't really sure. She decided to go out to the bar for a drink after class and maybe grab a bite after class. After she went to the art club to fill out a form for the class for the weekend.

She went to the grocery store later that afternoon. She went through the store and grabbed as much stuff as she possibly could. "Hi. What's your name?" said a man behind her. She turned around and found a man around her age with dark hair, green eyes, and pale skin. "My name is Kaylie. What is yours?" she replied. "Matthew. I'm here to study abroad." "So am I. What are you studying?" "English Language." Matthew said. "Were you born here. You seem to have a very pretty accent." "No. I was born in America." Kaylie replied. They talked for another fifteen minutes. Matthew asked, "Would you like to go on a date with me sometime." Kaylie smiled, very pleased with his offer. I"I would love too." She replied. " I'll pick you up Friday evening at seven." Matthew said. "Ok. See you then." Kaylie said.

Kaylie got home around nine that night. She had went shopping that night for a dress for her first date with Matthew. She was very excited about going out with a very charming Scottish boy. She was nervous as usual, but also very excited. She planned what she would do with her hair. She figured she would curl it that night.

She had a late dinner, took a shower, and went to bed. She slept that night with all smiles. She found someone who was interested in getting to know her for the real her.
