Lisa was sitting calmly in the usually empty seat at the back of the classroom.
I was surprised S.T. didn't introduce her to the class. She seemed in a particularly Terryfying (ha) mood this morning so I didn't dare question it.
Most people didn't seem to notice the new girl but I blamed it on Tuesday morning gloom.
My mood improved when I saw her in the classroom to be honest. The night before had been the first time someone in my year had spoken to me in weeks.
I tried to catch her eye as the lesson went on, hoping she'd recognise me.
Success! Lisa managed a quick smile in my direction before going back to writing her notes.
That would probably be a good idea on my behalf. The indecipherable scribbles I had been doodling all morning would not help my case on the upcoming test. I promised myself I would pass this time, even if it meant giving up some precious reading time.
Needless to say, progress was not being made.
I only realised the bell had rung when Lisa tapped me on the shoulder and, signalling to the empty classroom said, "You coming? Even Ms. Kent has left and we're going to be late for Geography. You need to show me where the classroom is"
I blinked stupidly at the neon green flower on her shirt for a few moments before it hit me
"Geography! Right!"
She narrowed her eyes in mock suspicion. "Where have you been for the past 10 minutes?"
"Just...preparing myself for Geography I guess"
She burst out laughing which I took as a positive sign. I think.
"Sure, sure, let's go! Whoosh!"
She scurried happily out the classroom while I shuffled my books into a carryable pile.
I followed her out the classroom and we ran down the hall to the classroom.
This particular gloomy Tuesday was going to be a strange one.
I think.
