Overcoming a huge obstacle

I spent the whole weekend thinking about how I could ask Mr. Hunter to talk to me. Then I finally found the right words. I kept the message short and asked him if he had time for me this week, as I had a concern that had been bothering me for months and I needed his help and advice.

On Monday on the way to school, I plucked up all my courage and sent him the message on Teams. I was so nervous all morning and I just couldn't think straight, blocking out everything around me.

The answer came in the middle of a lesson. He just said "Yes, of course." and he suggested a time, as I wasn't at school that day due to volleyball LMS, I told him and we found something suitable after a few suggestions.

I had a really bad feeling because he suggested a few times, but they almost never worked out. I told myself that I was annoying him and that he was probably wondering why nothing suited me. But what could I do if the request was a bit longer, I told myself positively.

So we agreed on Tuesday after the 6th lesson. So I was so nervous for the rest of Monday and the whole of Tuesday morning because of the conversation. On the other hand, I was very happy to finally talk to someone about this topic.

In 6th period, I was just thinking about how I should conduct the conversation with Mr. Hunter. After the lesson, I waited in class for a few minutes and then made my way to the conference room as we hadn't arranged a meeting point.
