“Are you done?”. Tatiana giraffe her neck to look at my food.
“Yep”. I smile, arranging my plates and stuffing my phone to my black jacket pocket, visibly where the badge is.
“Umm..you don't need to do that”. Tatiana advised as she notice my carrying my plates. “When you are done eating,you just leave it ”.

This school never seize to surprise me.

“Its okay,I'll just take it to them”. I insist,I'm strictly not used to leaving my plates after eating.
Tatiana nods. “Okay then,I'll do the same”. She also took her plates and head to the kitchen.
Other students look surprise. Honestly,I don't think they'll do something like that.

Spoilt brats!

“Thank you”. The lady in charge told us,smiling at our gesture.
“You are welcome. Umm..I can help you with the dishes too”. I add,willing to assist.
“No..its okay”. She reject softly as I nod and went to meet Tatiana.
“So..where do you stay?”. She ask as we walk back to class.

“Maryvee street. Its not too far from school”. I answer,adjusting my tie. “What about you?”.
“I stay in Silicon estate”.
My eyes pop out as I blow out my cheeks. “Woah..I've never been there,I just hear of it”.
Silicon estate is like a mini heaven here,that's where almost all the important people in the country base. Beautiful is an understatement.
“You can come around sometime”. Tatiana said with her hands in her skirt pocket.
“Really?.Sure,I'd love to”. I reply dreamy.

Hanging around with rich people would definitely make you feel like you're one of them..

“It's really nice getting to meet someone like you”. I turn to her,smiling brightly.
“Its also really nice getting to meet someone like you too”. She cup my cheeks in her soft hands.
I feel someone following us,turning to take a glance, 'its Evan'.

“Hey”. He came to our side.
I notice Tatiana's face turning pinkish as her smile widen even with fact that she's dark.
“Evan..hey”. She said softly.

We stopped walking as he brought out a paper like thing,looking like a ticket.
“umm..here. I'm inviting you for my birthday party,next month”. His voice sure has a way of capturing anyone's heart, and his scent too.
“Thanks”. Tatiana smiles shyly as she collect the ticket.

He turns to me. “we meet again. I'm Evan”. He started, stretching his hand for a shake.
I nod slowly,trying to look anywhere but not his eyes. “I'm Korah”.

“Korah,nice name. Here's one for you too”. He brought out another ticket.
“Thanks”. I smile,looking at it intentionally to avoid his face.

“Hope to see you there”. He ended,taking one last look at me before walking away.
“He gave you one too?”. Tatiana who has been drooling,asked.
I wave it to her. “Yes”.

“First day and you already have a ticket to Evan's birthday. You are lucky, I must say”.  she tuck her hand into mine like a gentleman and his lady walking down the aisle. She looks more happier.

The sweet sound of the bell rang. Checking the time on my phone,its 3:20.

Most students quickly pack their books and went out of the class like they were trapped.
“Do you mind us switching seats?”. I heard as I look to up to see 'Dawn.'

“umm..why?”. I ask reluctantly,arranging my textbooks to my locker which is below the desk,making my bag pack light as ever.
“I just..love the school view from here”. She answered,rolling her hair with her finger.

Liar. She obviously just want to seat close to the grumpy dude at my back.

“I'm sorry I can't. I also love it from here”. I rejected, getting up to leave.
Pressing her lips together, she look at me with a fake sad face as she walk pass me.
“Trevor”. I heard her call,making me shake my head in irritation as I walk over to Tatiana's roll.
“When is your ride coming to pick you?”. She ask,adjusting her uniform. She still scent the same,I wonder what kind of perfume she use.
“Ride?”. I thought for a second. “Oh..no. I'll go home myself”. I reassure.
