I looked my future school up and down, then walked around it twice. I didn't like it already. There was no way my sister could persuade me to like it. The headmistress gave me a pouted look, before smiling and leading my parents and I through the big doors and into the school. A long, wide corridor stretched out from the door. Stood right at the very edge of the door was Ace, my sister.

"Ace, would you like to show your brother around?" the headmistress asked, beaming at me and, as my sister took my hand and pulled me away.

"Ravi, isn't this great?" Ace's smiley face was enough to keep me from spitting out some witty remark about the place, "I mean, I can't believe me and you will be going to the same school after all!"

I nodded, "Yeah, great, ace, even!"the joke didn't click until Ace repeated it back to herself, then she smiled and turned left, into a door way that was painted green.

Ace looked around before pushing on the door and allowing herself into the room. I gasped when I saw the green tables, green chairs, green flooring, green everything!

"Woah! Cool!" I grinned as my sister showed me around the room.

Ace smiled, "This is the room where only the best pupils are taught. You are not even allowed in here without a slip of paper with teacher's permission! I shouldn't be in here now, to be honest! Though, it is my classroom."

I grinned, "Show me more green rooms and I'll come to this school alright!"

We looked through a lot of books and rooms, Ace even showed me the toilets, as the boys and girls were easily confused if you got lost. It was weird that the girls had blue toilets and the boys had pink, but that was part of school, I guessed. 

Eventually, I had warned to the school and me, mum and Ace went home. Ace chatted on about her friend Carry being really into boring stuff and not liking the group of girls she was in. It was weird how your sister grows up a lot when you weren't looking. 

"Ace, tell us about schoolwork, not your little group of friends falling apart and all that," mum smiled as she was driving, grimacing when dad put on her least favourite band on in the car. Dad sniggered and so did I. Ace pulled a half frown, half grin and mum shook her head wearily.
