Messed up! The Great Beginning

Page 38

We made it to math class and took our seats. Here us 6 sit exactly like in Miss Yamis english class. Except that I sit next to Sasha for an actual reason. He isn't that good at math, but once I started helping him, his grades got better!

Right now, we're doing the Pythagorean theorem.

Our math teacher's called Mister Winkler. He's German! Just like me, except that I'm also half Polish. I sometimes speak German with him just for fun. Ray and Laura can also speak German just like many other Truelanians. Besides English, German is also often spoken here and some schools teach it.

But not ours.

I can also speak Polish. Sometimes, I speak Polish with Sasha. His dad is Polish and his mom is Russian. He can speak Russian, too. Before he changed schools 2 years ago, he was quite ashamed to be half Russian. A few people bullied him and called him a communist. For a long time, I didn't even know his mom was Russian. He used to always say that she was from Ukraine.

When we found out that he had Russian roots, we didn't judge him for it. I mean, how could you? He's a sweetheart. He's the furthest thing from bad. If he would do a crime, no one would suspect him for it.

We did some tasks and I helped Sasha like the usual. We'll have to write a test about it soon, just like in other subjects like english and biology. But I'll worry about that later.

After an hour, the bell rang again and we made our way back to Miss Yami for history class. Right now, we're making presentations about how our capital city Travo came into being. I don't have anything, so I'm sooooo lucky that we're doing this in groups.

However only in groups of 3 or 2. The boys were already 3 and Ray and Laura teamed up with Annie. Annie is known for her rich parents and the fact that she can play the violin. Everyone was in a group of 3 besides two other.

There was Jenny with Lilith and Sydney with Sayoko.

Nothing against Lilith, but Jenny is too annoying for me to work with. She's this typical girly girl with long pigtails that wants to get a high out of everyone.

I think I'll work with the other duo...

I grab a chair and sit on the opposite side of the table with Sydney and Sayoko. Sayoko greeted me and asked me how I was doing. Sydney brushed her hair out of her face and said hi. They then showed me what they had already done on Sayokos Tablet.

Sayoko is very special. She's Trans! Boy to girl Trans. Some girls wear instead of pants, a gray blue skirt with dark gray stockings. It's technically the girls uniform. But here you can choose what which one you want to wear. It's like this by law because every student should feel comfortable in what they wear, but they must wear a uniform.

This is why Sayoko wears the girls uniform! And we're all proud. I wear the boys uniform because I personally prefer pants over skirts. I don't mean that I hate them, but I only wear skirts and dresses to special occasions or costumes.

"So glad that this is our last lesson." Sayoko sighed.

"It is?" It done took me by surprise.

"Yeah, didn't you check before you got here or something?" Sydney asked, giving me an odd look.

"Gee, sorry I forgot." I said.

"You didn't do anything." Sydney said.

We all returned to researching and after a while, the bell finally rang. I got up and put the chair back to where it was and everyone left besides Sasha.

"You know you can go if you want." I told him.

"I know, but if you're staying, then I might as well, too." He said.

"You missed me that much, huh?" I teased.

"Heh, not gonna lie.."

"I did."
