Hope in The Things Unseen

Chapter One: Spanish Class

A/N: I thought it'd be cool to put this song.

<<<<<<<<>>>>>>>>

Finally, school has started. I'm ecstatic for the fact that I'm already going to get over with the first year of Spanish Virtual One for Speakers. I was starting to get really bored over the summer of not doing anything but watch television and some movies. The very few pros of this summer was reading the books that I didn't get to read, getting new books, learning how to cook french fries and being able to run. Plus it's my first day into the seventh grade, which hopefully, will be a good day.

A few minutes after the bell rings the teacher, Ms. Reategui, yells in a strict tone, "you can all sit wherever you want today, but next class I will give you guys assigned seats so don't get too comfortable."

She looks young. Dark brown hair, brown eyes, glasses, lightly tanned skin, and an average height. Her body looks very fit. That might be the reason she has the Track decorations near her desk.

If there is one thing I've surely learned from last year, is that most of the teachers are young and there aren't that many over there mid thirties or early forties.

I look around the classroom, observing the quite small space that I'll be learning things that I already know. I always speak Spanish in my house so this will be easy. There's just some issues I have with the grammar.

Tables are aligned and there are computers on every desk.

As my eyes wonder, I see a girl standing near the door that I swear I've seen before but I can't put my finger on it.

I walk towards her hoping I haven't mistaken her as someone else.

"Hey, don't I know you from somewhere?" I say, my voice coming out noticeably nervous.

"Yeah that's right. Lissette introduced us last year in lunch. Maria's your name right?" She says smiling a bright smile with her blonde hair tied back in a ponytail and bright blue eyes.

"Gaby right?" I say smiling being releaved for the fact that someone I actually know is in my class. We walk towards the first seats we can find that are closest to the door.

"Yeah, so what brings you here to this class?" She says struggling to bring her keyboard over the computer to place it in front of her. I stand up and help untangle the cables that don't seem to budge.

"Oh, I just wanna get the two years of taking a language off my chest already." I say while sitting back in my seat after helping her.

The reason why I say this is because I learned in the summer of sixth to seventh grade that I have to take the same language for two years and I'd thought it through that it would be best to take the class in middle school than high school to have that requirement over and done with.

"Same, my older sister took this class when she was in seventh and she said it was mostly easy so I'm definitely gonna pass this class." I can tell by the way she says it she has a lot of confidence for this class. Hopefully this class won't be that hard for me.

A/N: I have absolutely no idea if this will get any reads but this is my very first time writing something so thank you if you read my first work!
