What I Am

6: This isn't good, is it?

"Okay Class, I'll be expecting your mats for tomorrow," Mr Viego said before leaving.

"Well, one more subject I guess," I said,

"I hope its not bad,"

*Slam!*

"Finally last fricking class," The teacher said, kicking the door wide open.

"Our lessons our too many to cram into 4 quarters so we're gonna start today," the teacher said.

"No introductions needed, just refer to me to whatever comes to your mind, I don't really care,"

"Bring out your notebooks if you brought any,"

"If not just go, take a frickin video,"

"Oh btw this subject is... Science,"

*Class is done*

"That was pretty busy for a last subject,"

"Well, what were you expecting," Samantha said.

"Something calm?" I answered.

We both laugh.

"Anyway, you wanna get going?"

"Yeah, Let's go,"

As we went outside we start to notice someone seemingly following us.

"What's your problem?" Samantha said without looking behind.

"Oh, what an attitude you have,"

As we look back we see Donnie and his obnoxious friends.

"What now?!" Samantha said.

"You know what's what Sam,"

"You guys are really picking on a girl?" I said.

"Stay out of this!" Samantha said.

"I've dealt with things worse than him,"

"Very cocky of you Sam," Donnie said.

"Can't you guys at least do what you're gonna do outside the school?" I said.

"We don't need to!" They replied.

"What the hell is happening?!" I said.

...

...

One of Donnie's friends brings out a chessboard and Samantha brings out a timer.

?!!!!

I tilt my head in shock.

But I calmed down immediately at the fact that they didn't brawl.

"I don't understand," I said.

"What? We're chess players," they all said.

"Oh, right,"

As I watch their game I see someone else.

"Hey, Samantha look,"I said as I point at the guy's direction.

"Wait," She replied.

One of Donnie's friends spots him and he calls him out.

"Hey Brady check it out!"

Samantha suddenly flipped when he heard his name.

"You okay Samantha?"

"Y-yes, Just choked,"

Samantha totally loss focus.

And completely loss the game.

For that.

Wow, really pathetic if you ask me.
Just kidding.

"Ha! You lost!" Donnie said.

"Looks like your getting rusty," He added.

"Y-yeah,"

"Till next time,"

Donnie and his friends leave, just after that.

And to think they were bullying this other guy earlier.

Weird.

Probably a continuation error.

"Oh Brady, you're still here," I said.

"Yeah, I just wanted to apologise about earlier,"

"I-Its fine Brady, we understand, right Pauline?" Samantha said.

"Yeah, I guess,"

"W-well we better get going see you tommorow Brady,"

"Oh, okay,"

"You could walk with us if you want to," I said to him.

"Y-yeah, Why not?" Samantha said

"I mean, those three already left," I added

"What do you think?"

"No, Maybe next time,"

Samantha breathes a sigh of relief.

"Well okay, see you tommorow I guess,"

...

As we got far from him,

"Pauline what was that?!" She asked, embarrassed.

"What was what?"

"Y-you know what I'm talking about!"

"Oh, when you lost at chess?"

"Yeah, I don't know a thing about chess," I added

"Oh Nevermind," she said.

I laugh and look at her.

"You like Brady don't you?"

She looked away, cheeks blushing.

"Does he know?"

She shakes her head slightly

"You look really cute right now,"

"C-can we just change topics already,"

"Okay then,"

"You play games besides chess?"

~

After a long talk about what other game we liked we reached our destination.

"Well, see you tomorrow Lucy,"

"S-stop, nobody calls me that," Samantha said,

"But, yeah, see ya tomorrow," she added.

I laugh and went home.

"I'm home!" I say as I got in our house.

"Oh right, they have work,"

I laugh it off and went straight to my room.

What a day this is,

I'm finally starting to turn my life around,

I kinda hope this would be the case everyday,

.. after thinking about all of that I fell asleep,

And waking up the next day,

Pretty weird I'll say,

But I'll take that any day,

~

The alarm on my phone goes off and I wake up immediately,

My stomach's growling too,

I immediately get up to have breakfast to see that my parents, have already went to their jobs.

How responsible,

At least they left me breakfast,

So after all that I start another day,

And I'll be honest, it'll be a lot of parts just for the fact that I talked about one day in 5 whole chapters,

"I need help,"
