Chapter 5: A friend

The school bell rang. I sprint to the hallway through my classroom. Gosh, it's 7:05 in the morning.

I'm going to be late.

I open the door in front of me. Thank goodness sir John's not arrived yet. He's probably late. I came across a bunch of girls(my classmates), they watch me with suspicious eyes.

I smile. "Good Morning" I say in an energetic tone.

One of them, Marline, replied "good morning" with the same wide smile she gives to everyone.

She had such shiny, straight hair.

"Good Morning also" said Danica, her curls suits her features. She's a beautiful 'Morena'.

The rest of the girls I greeted just nodded and looked away.

How mean. It's fine, just like I promise, I'll make as many friends as Armin wants me to have.

I walk towards my loving chair, with my lovely seatmate.

"Good Morning" I heard Aubrey said to me.

I glance at her direction. She was smiling.

The first time I've seen her smile, to me.

Damn, she looks so pretty. Her round eyes are so cute, her long eyelashes makes her eyes even more charming. Her hair is tied in a bun.

"Good Morning" I greeted back. Then I turn to my seat.

I found Armin's asleep, with his head and shoulders laid on his desk.

I sat down, and glance down at him.

Sir John has arrived. Dressed like a mafia leader. I guess teachers' uniforms usually looked like that.

I pat Armin's head slightly. And he woke up grudgingly, then he realized I was the one patting his head. His expression turned to complete calmness.

"Huh?" He asked.

"Teacher's here" I said, smiling.

"Oh" I hope he realizes I did the same thing he did to me yesterday.

"Now, I want everyone to form a group with 4 members involved for our first activity in this first quarter. You can choose your own group."

Everyone was busy deciding who their group members are since they all want everyone to be in their groups.

It's sometimes hard to have so many friends. Just like Noah, our beauty Queen classmate, everyone wants him to be in their group, because they like him so much as I could imagine. Because he's funny.

Who wouldn't want a clown in their group? Poor Noah, you're just so friendly that's why you're struggling. Poor me...no one even shot a glance on me. I look for Aubrey but she found her own group. They probably recruited her for her loneliness.

What about me?

"Psst" I glance at my left.

"Do you have a group?" Harold ask.

Well that was a painful question. "No" I shook my head.

"Do you care much about Science?" Kryans ask. That's a bit rude.

I nod "yeah, as much as I care for my well being."

"Then come and join us, girl" Kryans added.

Armin nods.

"Sure, of course" I smile.

Good, I've got recruited for my loneliness. But the problem is, they're all boys. I can't probably deal with some of their mischievous behaviours. Not that I think all boys are like that, but all boys really have that kind of abilities. Well, at least Armin's here to help me, in case of any misunderstandings between human genders. I'm sure he knows how to behave in front of women.
