Kara’s POV: Chapter 8: Unexpected (and I loved it)

After Spanish class was lunchtime and I was so hungry my stomach was like a fierce lion.  When the bell rang I stood up from my seat as fast as I could and practically ran out of the classroom, I already had by cross body bag on, which Sara bought me as a gift last week when we were at the mall, and all to leave faster. 

I went to my locker and took all the notebooks I had on my bag and put them back in my locker retrieving the books from the three classes I had after lunch period. Ichecked myself in the magnetic mirror then went to the cafeteria.

Just when I entered the cafeteria I realize that I left my phone at the Spanish classroom.  Ugh!! So much for being hungry and ready, now I’m gonna be the last one to eat in the entire school. 

I am so forgetful lately I think as walk through the long empty halls that will eventually lead me into my Spanish classroom.

When I finally get there I walk in and the room is empty.

I walk to the back of the room to my seat.  I like that seat 'cause its one of a kind.  The wooden table that I use as a desk is like 2 1/2 inches thick which limits a little the space for my legs but I don’t mind since my legs aren’t that long anyways. 

One day  I was bored out of my mind during one of my Spanish classes in the beginning of the year and I couldn’t stay still so I kept shifting resting my head on one hand to the other and in one of those changes I felt a crack on the side of the desk that faces my belly and I started running my hand through it and out of nowhere the cracked suddenly opened like a secret little door revealing a hole that was big enough to fit my phone and something else in it.  Inside was a piece of paper all wrinkled.  When I opened it it had a a conversation apparently between two boys written on it.  They were discussing a party that had happened before and how they saw two girls, one named Marie and the other one Lisa, skinny-dipping in the pool.  How one entered a room he thought was empty and found a girl naked that was apparently changing clothes and when she saw him she slapped him and kicked him on his southern property (his balls).  I think that was the funniest and best Spanish class I had ever taken.  Funny because I found out a gossip that though it was definitely from this year due to the blurriness of the pen color it was still fun imagining a guy entering a room and then being slapped and kicked ‘cause he chose the wrong door the wrong moment.  And I finally discovered something new that was actually interesting, not that I have anything against the Spanish language.

I open it, retrieve my phone, kiss it and leave the classroom.

 By the time I reach the hall that leads me to the gym and the cafeteria my stomach is growling even more than before if that’s even possible.  Just then I see Kyle alone and walking in my direction.

I definitely don’t want to talk to him right now. Its been a couple of days since he went to my house and we’ve been sitting at lunch together (as a group with Sara, Jennifer, Daniel, Rick and Scott.  The last two are Kyle’s friends.  By the way I think Rick has a crush on Sara though she doesn’t want to admit it).

He hasn’t brought up the subject but I guess that’s because every time we’re together in the same room we’re not alone.  But today is Friday and I promised him that I wouldn’t make him wait long for my answer but I just don’t know yet.  I’ve been afraid of having a moment alone with him just because I’m afraid he’ll bring up the subject which I’m sure he will considering how determined he is.

I start looking at my phone pressing random buttons faking that I’m busy so I can walk past him and have an obvious reason not to talk to him or let him know I acknowledge his presence.  I know, as a fact, that when you get ignored like bird poop on the sidewalk you get really pissed.
