It was a lovely morning, the sun shining brightly through the lightly packed clouds. Five girls were standing by a bus stop looking anxiously around almost searching for something or someone.
"Where is she? " one of the girls asked.
"Don't worry about her Isenathi. " another girl said.
"If she's going to miss the bus and be late on the first day of school, I might actually be impressed by her audacity. " a girl said leaning against the girl next to her, when she spoke up, "Don't say something so harsh Aakifah, beat her up instead. "
"I swear if Tadiwa doesn't come right now I'm actually going to f̶u̶c̶k̶ her up. " a girl said, starting to get annoyed by her friend that has yet to arrive.
As if on cue, that friend, Tadiwa, sprinted her way to meet up with the group. Out of breath she said, "I know I'm late, I'm sorry-"
Aakifah stepped forward in front of Tadiwa's slouched figure and whacked her on the head. Tadiwa shrieked out in pain, "WAS THAT NECESSARY!? "
"Yes and be grateful I was the one that hit you instead of Kaitlin." Aakifah replied.
Tadiwa said nothing after that and just kept her frustration inside. The rest of their friends, Nur-Jahan, Zaakiyah and Isenathi couldn't help bursting into a fit of laughs seeing Tadiwa's suffering.
Not long after the bus arrived and all six of them got on. The bus drove for 40 minutes until their destination but now the girls are standing in front of their new school, Swervill High.
"This place is enormous." Nur-Jahan exclaimed.
"I wouldn't say enormous but it is huge. " Kaitlin said, staring at the building.
Suddenly a boy at the gate approached the group.
"Good morning, are you girls freshman? "
"Yes we are. " Zaakiyah replied.
"Okay great then. All freshman must head to the auditorium,I'll show you the way. " the boy explained.
"Okay thank you then. "
The boy lead them to the auditorium where they took a seat . The principal went up the stage to make a welcoming speech where soon after we had the speeches from the vice-president, the student council president and the disciplinary council . After all that we were given a page with our locker numbers and assigned classes.
"So what classes did everyone get? " Isenathi asked.
"I got Mr Narthan. " Aakifah replied.
"I got Mr Narthan too! " Tadiwa exclaimed.
"Well I got Mrs Khau. " Faithful said, looking a bit upset.
"We're in the same class Faithful. " Zaakiyah said, smiling wide at Faithful.
They both looked super elated, however they were embarrassing for doing a somewhat happy dance when in reality they looked like a duo of constipated drunks.
"My teachers name is Mrs Liede. "Kaitlin spoke up.
" I got her too! "Nur -Jahan practically screamed.
It was a moment of pure excitement and anticipation when....
" What kind of trashy system is this!? "Isenathi said quite loudly.
The whole groups attention turned or her.
" Am I the only one out of this friend group in Mrs Solomons class?!? "The other five girls looked at each other
"It looks like it is only you. " Faithful said, having an awkward face on."That's kinda sad I'm not going to lie. "Aakifah added.
Kaitlin elbowed Aakifah making her step back in pain .
" Isenathi it's not as bad as you're making it sound out to be. "
"Yeah what is bad is how you are going to be a loner in class until you make friends." Nur-Jahan said, obviously not thinking twice not thrice.
Kaitlin smacked her hand over Nur-Jahans mouth,"Dont listen to this moron."
"Yeah don't listen to her. " Zaakiyah said. "You're going to be fine,I bet you're going to make friends by her moment you walk into that class. "
"I hope so. " Isenathi said.She sounded hopeful at least.
"If I befriended all of you I shouldn't have a problem making more." Isenathi said in a whisper but it was loud enough for her friends to hear.
"And what is that supposed to mean?" Faithful asked,looking at Isenathi with a pitiful expression.
Tadiwa put her hand on her chest,"Isenathi I think you broke my heart. "
"So dramatic. " Kaitlin exclaimed, rolling her eyes looking amused by this performance. The group started laughing and chatting about their plans for the semester.
"You know that guy who lead us to the auditorium was kind hot. " Zaakiyah said.
"You find every boy attractive. " Aakifah said with a smug face.
"Not all but a few. " Zaakiyah corrected.
Not convinced Faithful joined in and said, "Oh yeah? What about all the boys you found attractive in Primary school? Was it 3 or 6 no about 8."
"Faithful I love you but the boys in that school was off limits. They were weird and always going around with different girls. I bet this school has real hotties . " Zaakiyah said defending herself.
"It's true though" Aakifah whispered to Faithful. "Shhh don't let her know,her ego will grow. "Faithful whispered back.
"Alright alright "
" I wanna go see my class. "Tadiwa said
" lets go then. "Nur-Jahan said taking Kaitlins hand.
All of them agreed and went their own ways, promising to meet after school.
The beginning ended
