I looked so weird. What the heck is this fashion style? Why do I have a shaved head? I don't know, doesn't it look weird on me? Eh, whatever.


I was heading on my way to my new school and got scared seeing all those people there. I muttered to myself, "Scary humans," and looked around lost trying to figure out where to go.

As I was looking around, a few boys started catcalling me and made fun of me, "Hey, baldie! Have you tried chemotherapy?" I glared at them and said angrily to them, "Not bald".


The boys started laughing and smacked my butt. I started getting even more mad and tried pushing them off, until a boy with black hair, plaid clothing, and a very interesting 2-legged thingy yelled at the boys, "Lay your hands off her, perverts!" The boys approached the other boy and confronted him, "Or what? You're too weak to do anything, kiddo." The other boy spit on their faces, "We are in high school, idiots. Stop acting like 6 year olds and grow up." The boys rolled their eyes and walked away angrily.


The boy who saved me approached me and looked in my eyes, "You okay?" I nodded nervously and gulped, "Scary." The boy and I sat down next to eachother on a bench in front of the school and he asked me curiously, "So...where are you from? What's your name?" My anxiety was spiking and I responded back to him, "My name is...," I saw someone drinking a water bottle called Aquafina and I looked at the boy, "Aquafina. My name is Aquafina." The boy asked me, "Where are you from?" I responded back even more anxious, "I-I'm from my mother's womb." The boy chuckled and introduced himself, "I'm Joseph, I'm 17, and I'm from New York, but my mom got a job here in LA and we moved here." I looked at him, "I'm 16." He smiled at me, "Well, I think you're really pretty." I smiled back at him, "Not scared." The school bell rang and he looked at me, "It's time for school, Aquafina. Want me to show you around?" I nodded and went inside the school.
