Broken (Discounted)

Chapter 1:

"We are approaching Riverdale Miss Thompson." Gareth the driver announced.

I sat up and gave a stretch. I looked out the window as we drove past the famous Riverdale Sign. "My mum will be turning in her grave if she knew I was being sent here." I huffed folding my arms.
"I know Miss Thompson, but Marco thought it would be best if you went and lived with your farther."
"Would of rather of been sent to Boarding School than this crap show." I mumbled.
"Now Miss Thompson, that is no way a young lady should speak. Both Marco and your farther agreed that Riverdale would be best for you, new start and all.
"Well I did my research you do no one of the most wealthiest families killed their own son." I huffed folding my arms. "Im not even going to be living in a house." I moaned.
"Hush now Miss Thompson we are approaching your farthers house now."
"More like a shed." I mumbled

"Please be kind Miss Thompson." Pleaded Gareth. I did a loud sigh and we pulled up near a tralier. "They look so small." I moaned climbing out the car. "It even smells weird." Gareth shook his head and climbed out to grab my bags. I stood there texting my old friends from home moaning how horrible it was here.

I heard a familiar voice "Megan is that you?" I turned around and saw my farther. He was rather scruffy from the last time I remembered. He was wearing faded blue jeans and a ugly green smock shirt thing. "Hi Dad." I said trying to fake a smile.

"Where shall I put these bags Mr?"
"Call me Chris." My dad smiled. "Just place them in the first part of the tralier im sure Megan can organise when she is settle." My dad smiled.

Gareth took my bags in and came back. "Well Miss Thompson, its been a pleasure and I will miss you dearly. Good luck." Gareth smiled and climb back into his car and drove off.

I look at my dad and he looked at me. "Would you like to come in?" He smiled.
"I guess so." I mumbled walking in trying to avoid the mud. I set foot and I could tell I was not going to enjoy it one bit.
"Its small." I said looking round in the first part was a small kitchen which joined onto the living room which had a small sofa and an 1980's tv. "Its abit old fashion."
Dad looked really uncomfortable. "Okay where do I sleep?" He pointed to the other side of the tralier at a small door. I made my way to the door and open it. It was tiny. A small single bed and a very thin wardrobe. I slammed the door shut.
"Why couldn't I stay with Marco!" I shouted least my room was the same size of this crap tip." I shouted.
"Dont you dare!" My dad shouted back. "You are not a spoilt ungrateful rich girl anymore, your my daughter not Marcos ."

I grabbed my bags and took them to my room and started to unpack. I pulled out an old photo from the bottom of my bag it was a photo of when I was 3 with mum and dad and we were so happy. I placed it up and walked out of my room to see my dad leanning down with his head in his hand.
"Dad." I mumbled causing him to jump. "Im sorry."
"Its fine kiddo, just a huge change for you, I get it. But let's go to pops and we can have a catch up?"
"Whats pops?" I smiled
"An America Diner, you will enjoy it."
"Sure lets go."

********

My idea of going to Pops thought we would be arriving in style. Nope in a run down truck instead. We made our way inside the diner. When i set foot it was so colourful and so funky. Me and my Dad made our way to the counter. When I nice jolly man came up. " Hello Chris, is this your daughter Megan you have been chatting about." He said smiling at me.
"Yes I'm Megan." I smiled. "Nice to meet you." I said holding out my hand.
"The pleasure is all mine." Smiled Pops. "Everyone calls me pops.

I notice my dad smiling knowing I was trying to make some effort.
"What would you like princess." He smiled.
"Strawberry milkshake and a burger please." I smiled.
"You heard her pops, and ill have the same" smiled my dad.

We got our food and sat down in the booths. "This is definitely different. Normally its lobster or roasted duck with salad for tea." I laughed taking a bit out of my food. "This is amazing." I smiled "Thanks dad." This made my dad smile alot. I looked around I saw alot of teenagers.
"Is this like a main hangout spot here?" I asked.
"It is." My dad smiled.
"Ah cool."
"So I'm I off to Riverdale High?" I asked
"Sorry princess your not as we aren't in the district your off to South Side High." My dad answered.

South side high really. I did my research as Google has the answers to everything. That school was full of gangs and drugs. "Really this just gets better dad. When do I start?"
"Monday" I nodded my head "okay dad" I said carrying on eating my burger.
