"MISS. FORGER IF YOU THINK I WILL EXCEPT YOU BEING HERE A MINUTE LATER THEN WHAT I SAID YOU ARE INCREDIBLY MISTAKEN!"  "Mrs. Cadiho I'm very sorry I was late to lunch detention! It won't happen again."  "It better not! It wouldn't have happened if you had just paid attention in my class!"  "And once again I'm sorry. Please forgive me for being late." 
The second that sentence escaped her lips Anya saw the new boy walk into the classroom. The moment Mrs. Cadiho saw him she started yelling a storm at him.
He didn't seem to mind though. "He's staring at me. Maybe I should have gone with a different outfit option or he just thinks I look stupid. I hope he doesn't. Now that I remember Damian was like that. I miss him."

"Hey. The teacher left the room. Didn't you notice? You can sit down now."  "Oh y-you're right! Thanks."  "Sure. Hey so since I'm kinda new and lonely want to be friends or something?"  " Uhm... I don't even know your name."  "O-oh you're right! My name is Damian."  "I used to have a friend named Damian. He had hair like yours but even though he was cute and all he had a bad attitude and big ego but he still had a sweet heart." Anya looked down at her shoes. She regretted sharing her personal problems at school but for some reason she felt he would understand.
"Used to?"  "He died in a fire and it was MY FAULT!" And with that Anya ran to her desk avoiding any additional conversation with the new kid.
"Oh how I miss you Damian. I'm so sorry you died because of me!"

The new kid, Damian stared at her with this sad but pitiful expression in his eyes. Anya just didn't understand WHY she told HIM her sorrowful memory that brought nothing to her but pain, grief, and sadness.

"I STILL DON'T KNOW WHY I TOLD HIM!"
