Ok, my Christmas present for you 
Capνtulo 1
Before I go on, I think I should introduce myself.. My name is Marjolein. Wait, it was Marjolein.. After my parents died in an accident with a formula 1 car, I was left with only a sister, down under in Australia. When I heard it, I was at school. Not my own in the Netherlands, but in Spain. I was on an exchange program. My ‘brother’, Basty, had an idea and asked Ana if I could come and live with them forever. Ana agreed, and sort of adopted me. She changed my name as well, she couldn’t call me Mar forever. Since that day my name’s Rosa Maria Piρero Camacho. They had send my stuff over, even my motor. Luckily I wasn’t the only motor fanatic. Basty and Mikel were also motor-fans. Blonde! Mikel! I forgot to tell about him! Mikel is my boyfriend, since secondary school.
I was flying. No, really! This time I wasn’t flying like the times behind Basty on the motor or when Mikel kissed me. Mikel.. Although I’ve seen him an hour ago, I missed him… I looked out of the window and saw a blue sky and some weird shaped clouds. My shoulder bag was standing next to me as nobody was sitting there. I took my I-pod and turned it on. Spanish music filled my head. I closed my eyes and felt how the music carried me away.
I woke up coz someone tapped me on my shoulder.
‘Miss? Fasten your seat belt. We’re about to land.’ The airhostes said and walked away. A bit sleepy I fastened it and rubbed my eyes. I yawned and realized that I was in a plane. My neck hurt a bit. ‘Ladies and gentlemen: we arrived in Melbourne. Thanks for your trust in Madrid Airlines.’ The pilot said. I unfastened my seat belt and got up from the chair. I stretched my legs, took my bag and I-pod and followed the others out of the plane.
The sun shined on my face. I blinked a few times and looked around me. I saw a piece of paper hold up in the sky. It said: ‘Welcome Maria!’ I walked to it and saw Lynn and Dave (Lynn is my sister, and Dave her boyfriend. Lynn is the only family I have left of my ‘old’ life, but she lives in Australia) ‘Heey sis!’ Lynn saw me and ran to me. She hugged me tight. ‘Hola!’ I smiled and hugged her back. Lynn and I don’t look very similar. Lynn has curly brown hair and blue eyes. She’s four years older than me. I have a bit wavy blonde hair and also blue eyes. Dave walked also to me and gave me a hug. ‘Good to see you!’ He smiled. Together we got my luggage and walked to the car. It was kinda weird to see her again after al those years. Dave unlocked the car and putted my luggage in the boot of the pick-up. Lynn and I sat down on the backseat. ‘So how are you?’ Lynn asked me. English.. It was a while ago I spoke it. ‘I’m good. It’s weird to see you again after al those years. And to speak English.. Haven’t spoke it for a while..’ I smiled. ‘Oh.. You live in Spain now.. I almost forgot! I’ve tried to learn a little bit Spanish..’ ‘Show me!’ Lynn began to say a few phrases in basic Spanish. Her pronouncing was funny. English has a different sound than Spanish. I smiled when she made a mistake. ‘Lynn.. It’s Vale. But you say the V like a B..’ Dave looked at us through the mirror. For somehow I didn’t trust him.. But Lynn loved him..
