My eyes fluttered as I adjust my vision to let me see clearly. I sat up from my position and rubbed my eyes.

It took me a while to realize why I happened to wake up around this time and that is... great school.

Well I'm one of those people who always worry about school.

Some are excited because they can see there friends again. But me, I'm a loner and how's exciting is that?

I slowly got out of the bed and walked, somehow lumped to the shower.

After refreshing myself, I select some clothes that would suite me for today's "exciting" day.

I grabbed my bag and head downstairs for some breakfast.

As I arrived, I saw my mom preparing the table as well as the food.

She looked up and smile "Morning, _______" she greeted "Good morning mom" I greeted back as I sat on one of the chairs and start eating my breakfast.

"So... Are you excited?" She asks while munching her food. I stare at her blankly. She should know how my life is right?

"Yeah" I lied, showing a fake smile. I don't want my mom to worth about me especially when I don't get along with other people.

Once I'm done, I'm placed the plate on the sink and grabbed my bag. I was planning on leaving, so I did.

Before I go, I kissed my mom's cheek and bid her a goodbye. I went out of the door and saw my neighbor.

Oh god, it's him

I saw Darren, who is known to be a popular guy in school, and group of his friends, probably walking to school.

Actually we're at the same school.

He noticed and smiled. I looked away blushing a bit. I have to admit, he has a cute smile.

But I don't know if I like him or whatsoever. I looked at my watch and it's 7 minutes before school.

Meh who cares. I just went anyways. 

~~~

I arrived at school, luckily not late, and went inside my assigned classroom and sat on a random chair.

Some people look at me weirdly, some even whispered as they gave me weird glances.

I actually didn't mind at all.

The teacher hasn't arrived yet, so I fished my phone and earphones. I plugged my earphones on my phone and put them on my ears.

I played a random and read my novel. There's nothing else entertaining, so why not read, even though I'm listening to music.

I hummed while reading every word on the book. I looked around the classroom to check if the teacher arrives.

I was about to look back at my back when someone caught my eye. I saw Darren sitting two seats east but somehow in the front.

He's my classmate? Oh okay

My went back on the book as j continue to read.

I heard a door opened as our teacher, Mrs. Cruz, arrives. I directly unplugged my earphones and put it back inside my bag along with my phone, of course putting into silent.

The whole class greet the teacher and then we discussed about the school and all.

I was focusing at the teacher until my eyes landed on Darren for some reason.

He was staring.

What?

He was staring at me for some reason and I directly looked away, blushing.
