Beth was the new kid in school for the fourth time.

Her mother’s job kept them moving.

Making new friends was a waste of time.

She would join no more clubs.

She would not add any new names to her phone list.

The teacher welcomed her to the class.

Beth stopped paying attention to kids’ names.

Beth knew that she would forget them all.

When the teacher was giving Beth some papers filled with assignments to make, she made a decision.

At this school, she would be memorable.

She wore a pair of trousers from an old costume.

She didn’t brush her hair.

On Wednesday, she wore an old dress of her mother’s.

They’ll remember me after we’ve moved away again.

On Friday, they called her mother to school.

She was a bit worried.

She heard her mother and Mrs. Leonard talking. 

We’ve moved so often.

I’ve got a new job in town.
