33 7 Days 4 (1/2)

Aria woke up earlier than usual and prepared all the necessary paperwork for the life changing thing she was about to do. Nearly an hour later, she arrived at the official building in their car.

She had been preparing for this since the day she had bumped into her family and it was finally time for it to happen.

As she walked in, she looked around and noticed there was hardly anyone else there and walked straight to the desk.

”Hello Miss, how may I help you today?” The woman behind the counter was smiling brightly and pleasant. She had noticed that the young woman in front of her was wearing simple looking but expensive clothes and didn't want to have to deal with any issues by upsetting a spoiled rich kid.

”I'm here to change my last name, everything else is done, I'm just here to finalize it.” Aria took out all her paperwork and handed it to the woman before waiting patiently as the clerk did a bunch of official looking work.

After several minutes, she was knocked from her thoughts by the clearing of a throat and looked back at the clerk.

”Miss Song, all that is left for you to do is to sign here,” the clerk pointed to several spots on the papers, ”and you will officially be Aria Montgomery. Don't forget to update your IDs.”

She quickly signed the papers after reading over them and was about to leave when the clerk called out. ”Congratulations, Miss Montgomery.”

”Thank You.”

Now that she had dealt with the first task of the day, Aria walked back out to her car and drove to the next place she needed to be.

Once she was there, she walked inside and shivered as the freezing air hit her. There were several huge lines and she swiveled her head looking for the area for people with scheduled appointments.

Finally, she saw a sign that advertised the clerks for scheduled appointments and then looked down and nearly coughed blood.

Despite being much shorter than the others, this line was still at least 20 people long and the sign at the end of the line had an estimated wait time of an hour.

Nearly 2 hours later, Aria arrived at the front of the line and called out, ”Hello? I'm here to change the name on my license and get a motorcycle license.”
