And It Was All Fate

4. FIRST AT WORK AND BAD SURPRISES

..

AT SCHOOL ( ON MONDAY):

Like any other day, I woke up , ate my breakfast and went to school on foot. Of course, after usual banter with my father at the breakfast table.

I had to go to school on foot because my father wants me to be tough. I wonder if he is trying to make me soldier so that he can get rid off me.

AT SCHOOL:

Everything is so mundane at school: same old school...same building , same students and same teachers. God , I am sick of all this.

Anyway, where is Claire? There she is... My best friend, a.k.a Pumpkin princess. Now I will have to tell her everything about yesterday because apparently that is what friends are supposed to do ...

"So ? You got the job! " , Claire exclaimed after I told her everything.

I knew she would overreact. She is always so jumpy.

" Yeah , I did and I am going to work there from now on ...Wait a minute, I am still mad at you " , I hissed.

" Oh come on...Let it go, let it go... " , Claire singing cheekily.

" Stop singing this ridiculous song. ", I said.

" Since today is Monday and I am already in the bad mood so I have no intention of holding grudge against you...Thus, I forgive your idiotic behaviour. " I stated.

And now, she is pissed . I love Claire's when she is enraged. It gives me a strange sense of pleasure.

AFTER A WHILE:

I reached my classroom and sat on the desk. In our school, two students have to share one desk but the inner cabin of desk is separated. Desks are specifically designed to keep our books because we don't have any lockers.

Every student has a desk mate. Unfortunately, my desk mate is that kooky boy ( with back rimmed glasses) who is a phone addict.

I wonder, where he is ? He looked like a punctual guy.

Oh, he came; wearing some old warmer and shabby pants. He looked at me and sat down besides me.

Now that I think about it, I still don't know anything about him.

For a change, it is not my fault that I don't know his name. He doesn't talk to anyone in this class... He is always on his phone.

AFTER A WHILE:

No, why is Mr Simpson here ? We don't have Maths class today. Why is he here ? He was not supposed to be here today.

"Dear students , Miss Marie is absent today so I am the one who is going to take classes " ...

Curse me. The way he says dear student makes me puke. I just want to kill myself whenever he is teaching in the classroom.

I swear when he teaches calculus I forget everything that I have learnt. Last time, I forgot to solve a linear equation as well. Fortunately, he won't be teaching us anything next year.

" Okay now, open your books. ", Mr Simon.

' My book is probably in the desk. Wait a minute, it is not here. Where did I keep it?.. ', I mumbled little loudly.

" Would you please be quiet? I am trying to study here. " , the weird boy .

What the hell ! I was just finding my book . Ugh!........He is so annoying. I think, number of irritating people are increasing exponentially in my life.
