I was always the shy kid. But you try moving to different homes every year with a new school ,new people everywhere you look. I have a younger brother named Bryce, whom never seems to have a problem making friends. I know how embarrassing,I'm older and a loser compared to my brother.
As I make my way downstairs for breakfast, I see my brother sitting at the table texting and eating fruit loops. He's more likely talking to a girl considering the big ass smile on his face. I sit at the table and start to eat out of my bowl of cereal that my mother makes every morning for me. My brother and I aren't close anymore, we don't talk, AT ALL! We're not mad at each other or anything , I guess shit just happens.
" good morning boys." My mother said as she sat next to me at the table.
"Morning." We greeted her back.
"Ight ma, I'm leaving." My brother said as he got up to put his bowl in the sink and get his Nike backpack.
"Wait don't you need a ride?" My mother asked following his movements with her brown eyes.
"Yeah that's why my friends are outside. Byee! " He said walking out the door.
After that my mother turned to me.
"Noolen baby , why have you been so quiet lately?" She asked .
"I don't know, I've just been thinking a lot lately." I said feeling uneasy.
"Well if you want to talk, I'm here for you." She said while giving me a warm smile.
"I know ma but I got to go, I don't wanna be late to school on my first day. I love you."I said as i grabbed my car keys and headed for the front door.
"I love you too baby." She said back.
I looked for a place to park my car and walked to the principal's office to meet my helper that was supposed to show me around the school. As I opened the door I saw the principal talking to who I suppose was my "helper" , I waited until they noticed I was there which didn't take very long.
"Hey you must be Noolen, I'm principal Frederick, and this is Tara she will be helping you find your way through the schools."
"Hey." Tara said waving at me with a warm friendly smile .
"Hey." I said trying not to sound nervous.
"I made you guys in the same class, to make it easier. But you guys should get going." Said the principal.

"Ok so first we have math the teacher told me to have you sit by me just in case you have any questions." She said while guiding me through the crowded halls.
"Ok, cool." I said following her. Tara was actually cute she had to be at least 5'6, she had dimples, long pretty hair , and dark clear skin.
"So, were did you move from?" She asked finally turning her attention to me.
"Atlanta, but I've moved all around the U.S." I explained while looking into her brown eyes.
"Must be hard." She said while Turing her attention back to the hallway. "
"Yeah, it is."
"Well here it is we can sit in the back." I followed her all the way to the back the room was already filled with people, and they were already staring. I swear at least two girls winked at me . I mean I guess I'm not so bad looking, I just don't have the courage to talk to girls.
