As soon as I got home i was bombarded with questions from my mother.
"So how was school?"
"It was fine, the teachers are nice, even though the school lunch was nowhere near edible."
"Did you meet anyone me, maybe some new friends?"
Immediately I thought of the boy I meet today but I didn't bother to mention him. I just responded with, "No not really, it's only the first day I'll make some as the school year progresses."
Before my mother could ask me anymore questions I just ran upstairs.
I when into my room, closed the door and locked it. I kicked off my shoes throw my bag to the ground and just launched myself onto my bed. Just bracing for the school year head of me.
The next day.
I really didn't want to go to school (what else is new) just because of that jerk in my home room....er I don't even know his name.
When I finally got to school I was little nervous, not really sure why. At least today was a little easier to find my home room. When I took my seat I scanned around the room for that boy but he was nowhere to be found. I thought "It's the second day of school and your not here...so unbelievable."
Then bell rang so classes began. Through out the day I hoped that maybe he was just late to school.
When the bell rang for lunch I was searching all over the place for him. Nowhere to be found. I was a little disappointed, all I wanted to do was to give him my two cents on hitting people that's it. Also to know his name cause it was just irritating me that I didn't. So for now I'll just call him... Meanie face.
I wanted to get my mind off him so I starting looking around the lunch room to see if I could spot someone interesting to talk to. In the mitts of me eating I noticed another girl sitting by herself. She looked very strange. She was looking down at the floor then constantly looking over her shoulder. What the hell is she Is she seriously lost. Something told to get up and walk over. Plus I would never hear the end from my mother for not interacting with other people.
"Hello." I shouted while awkwardly waving my hands. "I'm Asia...Asia Mckall, what your name?" She just stared at me dumbfounded. Does she speak English?
"Oh hi there." She said timidity. I guess she does understand me.
"Are you looking for someone? I couldn't help but notice that you were looking around."
"No I'm not, I'm just not used to sitting at such a big lunch table by myself."
So she is a follower I'm personally annoyed at followers. They can never do anything for themselves. Also they always go to their friends for comfort. I better hurry and leave before she-
"Would you like to sit with me?"
SHIT...
"Sure I wouldn't mind." Damn, I guess I'm stuck here. Of course I can just make up an excuse like my brother fell down the stairs or my mother got syphilis. What ever that is, but I don't want to be a total ass so I decided to stay.
To get thing rolling I decided to just talk to her, "I'm sorry I didn't catch your name."
"Oh my name is Amy Rodriguez, Don't you know who I am?" I wish you would have seen the look on my face, I was so confused. Like is this girl stalking me? Which I wouldn't mind just because Im that spectacular.
"No?"
"I am in your home room I sit at the desk across from you."
Never seen her a day in my life.
"Oh! Amy yes I remember you, sorry you just had to give me a minute to gather my thoughts." I'm pretty sure that all she heard out out of my mouth was bullshit.
We continued talking until there was this awkward silence between us and I still notice that she is looking around the room. It only bothered me because I don't want people to think that we are creating a secret plan. Ha! if we were she is making so obvious.
So to break the silence I just asked asked her questions like how old is she and where does she live. It was quiet again and continued to search like she is a lost child in a supper market. I couldn't take it anymore, I finally asked, "Are you lost?"
"Excuse me?" Oops... Ok sometimes I don't think before I speak which gets me in trouble.
"I'm sorry did that come off bad I didn't mean it. Sometimes I don't think before I spe-" she cuts me off. That bitch.
"A little but it's ok. I'm just scared, high school is scary. Also there are mean girls, like in those typical high school movies. I didn't know that they exist."
She has a point.
What kind of bull is this? High school is nothing but just a bigger building with more teachers deeper up you ass about your school work. "I assure you that there is nothing to worry about." I told her.
The bell finally rang so I gathered my stuff and was ready to head out until she said, "do you want to hang out after school?"
Even though I really didn't want to I just thought to myself, what do I have to lose?
"Sure." I confirmed. She had the biggest smile on her face and ran off, for some reason there was something satisfying about it.
I think I just made a new friend.
