Maybe happiness still exists

"Alyssa Young", I said to the woman behind the desk. She was wearing a grey dress and had a very neat hairstyle. She also had a name tag that read Madison.

"Hello Alyssa. So, here is your timetable and your dorm room number is nine. Have a good day", she said while giving me my timetable and my room keys.

"Thank you", I said and went away after smiling at her.

5, 6, 7, 8, 9 ...finally I reached my room after being stared at, not in a good way, by several boys. "But, why were there no girls in view?", I thought to myself.

Because not everybody has got a day off to unpack genius...my subconscious said to me. She was right. The classes had already started. I had got a day off to unpack but decided against it and took my things to go to my second class which was chemistry even if only twenty five minutes were left. I was still debating with myself whether I should knock or just open the door when the door opened revealing the teacher.

The teacher looked like he was in his forties. He kept looking at me until I decided to speak.

"Hello sir. I am A.."

"Oh yeah yeah...Anissah, right?!", He said before I could even complete my sentence.

"No, it's A.."

"Go and get a seat Anissah", he cut me off once again.

I let it go and went to look for a place. Usually I would sit in the front bench but since I was late, the only seats that were left were at the last bench. A few minutes later, the door was opened with a loud bang. A boy and a girl entered the class. The moment I saw the sandy blonde hair of the boy I knew that it was the boy and the girl from earlier.

"Michael and Emily, why are you both so late?", the teacher asked.

"We wanted to", the girl that I now know her name was Emily replied while Michael just walked his way towards the back and took a seat next to me. He looked at me as if he knew something that I didn't.

The teacher continued with the explanations and I took the notes quietly without looking at anyone despite knowing that someone was looking at me as I noticed it from my peripheral vision.

Just when I was going to leave the class after the bell rang, I felt someone taking my notes out of my grip. It was Emily.

"Can you give my notes back to me, please?", I asked her in the most polite way.

"Please?, Are you kidding me?"

With that she left the class leaving me, Michael and the teacher behind. I waited for the teacher or Michael to say something but they both left the class without saying a word.

Maybe it was happening again.

I thought to myself and felt the familiar prick in my eyes. After a few seconds, I took my bag and exited the class to head towards the canteen as it was lunch time. I decided against crying. I did not want to relive those moments again.

My thoughts were cut short when I bumped into someone and found that I was already in the canteen.

"I'm really sorry", I said to the girl with whom I collided.

"It's okay", she replied.

I felt really sorry when I saw that all her french fries were lying on the floor. I proposed to buy another lunch for her but she refused.

"Hi. I'm Sam.Uhmm actually it's Samantha Smith but all my friends call me Sam so I'm Sam for you", she said instead.

"I'm Alyssa", I said while extending my hand.

I was overflooded with emotions which I was totally unaware of when she pulled me into a bone crushing hug instead of going for a handshake. She proposed that we eat our lunch together. So we just went to buy some food. She bought a double cheese burger, french fries and a coke while I settled for a crispy chicken salad, a warm chocolate cookie and a sprite.

On the way to the table where Sam's two friends were already sitting, I made a mental note of buying less food next time otherwise I would have to go without food for days.

"Ermaagawd, whose princess did you abduct and bring here?", the girl who was wearing a black sleeveless shirt asked dramatically.

"I'm Alyssa", I told her.

"Hi Alyssa. I'm Elizabeth and this is Alexis", she said pointing to the girl that was wearing a lace open shoulder top.

I was going to tell them that it was a pleasure meeting them when I was attacked by an awesome group hug. I was so overwhelmed with happiness. But, this happiness did not last for long as I saw Michael, Emily and three more guys entering the canteen and coming towards the table that was next to us.
