  Come on Sarah, you can do it! It's gonna be okay...  Argh! I'm so stressed out ! Go, on three... One, two, three !

-Teacher : "Today we welcome a new foreign student. She came to Japan to study our language and culture, so please welcome her. Come on, introduce yourself."

-Me: "H-Hello, my name is Sarah Williams, I am 17 years old and I am French Canadian. I am still learning Japanese so please excuse me if I make any mistake... Nice to meet you !

       I dare not even stand up and look at them... Come on ! Uh ?

-Me: "Langa ?"

       He stands up to look at me.

-Langa: "Sarah !?"

-Teacher: "Oh, I see you already know someone. Good ! You can go sit in front of Reki, the young man with the red hair."

-Me: "Okay, thank you."

        The denommer Reki gives me a hand signal as I walk towards my place. I knew Langa was going to live in Japan, but I didn't think we'd be in the same school and in the same class ! Everyone is staring at me all the time in class, it's quite disturbing...

* Lunch break*

       I can understand that a new foreigner student  can attract attention, but still ! It is really necessary to surround me like this ?

- Student 1: "Hi! My name is Himiko, you want me to walk you around high school later ? "
- Student 2: "If you need help, come see me !"
- Student 3: "You can speak French or English ?"

        They are nice but I don't really like to attract attention and be surrounded... Please save me!

- Reki: "Calm down! You choke the poor girl !"

        They apologize and start leaving.

- Reki: "My name is Reki Kyan enchanted!"

- Me: " Nice to meet you Reki!"

        A blue head comes out from behind Reki. Here we are...

- Langa: "Sarah! But what are you doing in Japan?"

-Me: "Hi. As the professor said, I'm here to study."

- Langa: "O-Oh I see... But you should have told me! I would have picked you up at the airport."

- Me: "Uh? You're kidding me right now. You haven't told me anything since you left! I didn't know what was your new phone number or anything ! Do you know how worried I was ?"

        The few people who had stayed in class stared at us and whispered. Shit, as if I didn't get enough attention...

- Reki: " Can we go up to the roof to talk. I feel like you two need to talk and there are too many people here..."
- Langa: " You are right."

     Both steps to the door and go to the stairs. I don't want to follow... But I still don't want to let this argument drag on

- Me: "OK, I follow you."

  My new life starts pretty bad...
