(Maybe if I smile a little)

I places both of my hands on my thigh to prevent my paper to be wet due of my nature of easily sweat

I smile as I am looking at my surrounding and see that all my classmate is either doing their work or talking

(I will never makes any friend at this point also who will likes someone like me?)

(Maybe if I keep staring at the teacher he will not pick me to answer the question? I saw it on tiktok)

Fortunately he didn't pick me to answer the hardest question

After the class ended I usually went into the toilet first after holding my pee for school hours

(Ps. Please go on a toilet, this'll harm your body)

(I'm not even ugly in fact I'm pretty cute but why aren't I popular and also I want to buy that)

I keep imagining myself in a beautiful clothes and dress as I keep my eyes glued to the mirror

(Will I ever play the same game that they bought two years ago?)

Suddenly I heard a footsteps and I took a deep breath while stopping my hand to clenched

(It's just a students, I better head out)

I took the stairs down to go to my spot where I usually wait for my parent to pick me up

And then I saw my friend "The commoner"

I said "Hi" and wave at him but I bet he didn't recognize my face since I am wearing a mask

"Oh, Akma", he said trying to sounds delightful to see me

(Maybe he found new friends a better friend then me)

"Are you okay?", I asked him as I saw him keep avoiding my eye contact in fact everyone else

He replied "Yes, it's just that I'm not confident.."

"You're so confident and you always believe yourself and I wish I can be like you", he added.

(Wow, he doesn't even know me at all)

I smile and giggle

"Why do you care about that so much? You're perfect as you are",

(I wish I can use my advice to myself)
