The following year I separated from Maria, she was in another class with friends she had made the year before, but I, when I entered my new class I didn't know anyone.

Everyone formed their own little group, however that was not my case, I sat in the second row, since the other places were occupied, and I observed the new class, everyone was different, there was the group of fans of piecings and tattoos, which at that time it was unthinkable for me to do that, nowadays I am already crying about getting some piercings.
Then there was the group of smart people in the class, the group of video game geeks, the reading group and then there was me, the one who started drawing anime and reading manga.

Yes, I was definitely just another geek, but I was happy.
Minutes later the tutor came in, his name was Adrian, a young guy no more than 27 years old who was just starting high school, he introduced himself cheerfully to us, but many of the more "macho" ones were already starting to mark him, due to his voice and style, as a gay.

That was one of the aspects I hated most that year. Adrian would smile nervously at the "are you a faggot?" "do you have a boyfriend?" comments, after which I simply said:

-Prof, I think you should give us the schedules soon, tomorrow the routine starts already - I added -.

He smiled at me relieved and nodded and then started to hand out the schedules, he ended with a "Let's try our best!" which many passed him by. I was the only one, along with another girl the ones who answered that "Yes, we will try", she watched me smiling and after finishing the class, she approached me and said:

-Hi, my name is Sandra, I've been watching you and I like you, could we be friends? - she said smiling -

I nodded happily, at least I wouldn't be alone enduring this horrible course in this horrible homophobic class.

-See you tomorrow Jane, bye! - she said walking out of the classroom.

I waved her goodbye and quietly left the class, the only thing I was glad about, was that Ethan was not in my class.
