Eve: Tale of the Crimson Rose

Chapter 6

   IT'S MY FIRST DAY AT SCHOOL! I woke up 2 hours before I was supposed to. Headed right to the shower and got ready. The fall uniform is popping on me for sure. I made my hair into pigtails, did my edges, and left out some of my hair to make side bangs to look extra poppy. My backpack is all packed and ready. Got my books laptop and pencil case. That's all I need, right? I make myself breakfast before going outside to wait. A few minutes later, my brother came out.
"Let's go," he says before getting in the car. I head into the car, a little nervous for my first day. Assuming that they all went to the same schools for their whole lives. Ima be an outcast, even tho I'm already one from not being rich. Well, it's all good cause I could be mysterious. I wonder how well it will last. We drive past many food superstores, damn imagine being so rich that all the food stores are just together so they could bet on how many celebrities buy from them.

   After a while, I saw a few kids standing in a circle wearing the same uniform as me. Oh my God, we must be close, and low and behold there it was. Orgon Prestigious High, home of success and power. It is bigger than the college that was in my old town. It kind of reminded me of a castle with a modern twist. We pull up, and my brother parks in the teacher parking lot.
"Ok, whatever you do, don't embarrass me," he warns. I shake my head, not paying attention to him. I start walking to the front doors. While he goes through the teacher's door. I breathe in, just look at all these kids happily bragging about all their stuff. As I walk, I notice that their eyes are on me. Murmurs become loud as I walk into the building. I don't blame them, I kinda look out of place here.

   I take out the piece of paper that my brother gave me to find my classes. The first class of the day is Language Arts. Great, this is gonna be fun... That is if I could manage to make it out of these halls. What is this a life-size maze for teens? I figured it would be better to start walking and finding this class before I got in trouble on my first day. After what seemed like 10 minutes and 3 hallways, I found the class. Walking in, I see that the classrooms in this school resemble the classrooms in a university. That is so cool, I look around in shock.

   "Excuse me, but might you be," a tall lady with dark brown eyes and curly hair asks me.
"Oh! Right, you must be the professor," I  stutter, "I'm Eve Losu, and I'm new here." I hand her my schedule.
"I can see that...," she says, looking at it, "Alright then, please sit at the back." I shake my head while taking back the schedule. All eyes were on me as I awkwardly walked up to the back and took a seat. Bring out my laptop, and I am determined to make myself look the best.
"OK, class today, we will be continuing our analysis of the book..." she starts speaking. As she spoke, I typed all that she said just in case. For a moment, I looked up to see if I could search for a few people so that I could search them up. When I did, I saw that none of them were focusing on the work as I matter of fact they were all busy chatting with the other kids in the class. The professor didn't seem to care. Wow, if I had done this at my old school, I wouldn't be here today.

   My next class was history it was like the other class but with maps all around, and the kids were the same. On their phones with no worries at all. A few times, they would throw dirty looks towards me. Ouch, that hurts! A bright smile appears on my face when they look at me. Thank the Lord I had study hall next period. After class, I started my quest to look for the library. After a while, I stumbled into the garden of the school. And right across from it was the library.
'Fine..."I sighed in relief. Making my way there, I can't help but admire every inch of this place. The garden was huge and by the looks of it so was the library. I slowly creaked the door open and got in. Woah, this place is just incredible. So beautiful. The walls had carvings of angels holding books, and the bookshelves had little swirls craved in them. There are thousands of books here. There don't seem to be that many kids in here.
"Oh, what brings you here, honey?" Someone says I turn to see a sweet, short old lady standing on a ladder to put back some books.
"Oh, I'm just looking around," I say shyly.
"Well, enjoy my dear," she smiles happily before turning back around to finish what she was doing.
What a sweet old lady. I go to the historical area where I hear some type of radio. My curiosity got the best of me, and I peeked through the books to see two security guards. Behind them was a boy. He was listening to music while on his phone. It wasn't any boy, no... I've seen him before. Omg is Daniel Acetino, son of the most powerful man, Christiano Acetino. The man who owns almost every military army, company, and police force in the world. My he is beautiful... so fucking beautiful. They weren't wrong when they said he looked even better in real life. He is a wonder boy; a star soccer athlete, pretty smart, and hella popular. Nice body, nicely done twists, fair brown skin, and popular with the girls - wait... IS HE LOOKING AT ME?!

   He lifts an eyebrow as we make direct eye contact with me. What do I do? I smile awkwardly as I slowly close the gap between the books. But then I opened them back to see if he is still looking. And he was. He just blinked at me, looking a little puzzled.

Shoot, what do I do???
