The World Of Wonders

chapter 1

I wake up to the sound of my alarm ringing in my ear. I turn to the clock. It reads 8:00. Shit, im late to school. I hurry up and put on my clothes, brush my hair, apply eyeliner and my favorite matte lipstck. And head out the door. Once outside of my building i run to the train station and hop on the 6 train and put on my headphones. This guy comes on the train and starts dancing and prancing all over the train almost hitting me in the face in the process. Thats just new york city subways for you. My school was in manhattan towards the upper east side. Finally, the train stops at my stop and i make my way upstairs and dart to school. 5 minutes later i arrive at school (Manhattan Academy for applied science and mathematics). Once i get to school i check the time. 8:45. Damn. 30 minutes late. I head to my first period class physics and walk into the room. When i open the door all eyes turn on me.My teacher Mr. Hon gives a disaproving look
"Foulematou, I'm glad you could join us. Next time in a timely matter please"
I nodd my head and walk over to sit next to my friend Lana. She turns to me and smiles.
"Wassup bitch" she says
"Hey lola nothing much." I reply
Mr. Hon turns and glares at us and I look away and stare at my notebook to start copying notes.
After the bell rings I go to my locker to put some of my books away and look in the mirrior to make my curly hair look somewhat manageable.
The next few classes pass by and finally its lunch. I head downstairs to the cafeteria to find Lola as well as my other friends Alana and Zae dae sitting at a table. I walk over and sut down.
"Hey guys." I say
"Hey fil" they all say in unison
"So get this," says Alana "I'm walking to my enviormental class and I see these two lovebirds just making out in the middle of the hallway."
"Which two lovebirds?" Lola asks
"Who do you think? It was Dylan and Jessica"
Ahh Dylan and jessica. They are the type of couple who always can be found making out, feeling up on eachother and once rumored to have been caught having sex in public. Dylan was on the Basketball team and was always sleeping with the cheerleaders. Jessica always found out, they would break up and then get back together again. Jessica is on the volleyball team. And she is the type of person who cares more about a person's social standing than who they were. I would know. We all used to be friends in middle school. Me, Lola, Alana, and Zae dae. Until her dad made a huge investmemt in his company and made millions. Jessica was always a bit bitchy but she was loyal and a true friend. After her and her family got money she started acting different as suspected. She never had time for us. She started dating Dylan and his friends and joined the volleyball team. The main break was when she tried to humiliate me in front of the entire lunchroom. My friends stuck up for me. Its junior year and we havent talked once.
"Of course. Typical says zae dae"
We all eat and start talking about old times and soon the bell rings.
I head to my next class to sit and take out my notes. The late bell rings and my calculus teacher Mr. Derek starts to talk when a guy walks through the door.
They guy hands him a paper and mr. Derek nodds his head.
"Mr. Anderson, glad you could join us please take a seat."
The guy walks over and sits right next to me. He has this smug look on his face. He has dark hair and a fuckboy type hairstyle. His eyes are green and his body is lean and fit. A couple of girls are gigling in front of us and they keep turning around to look at him. Finally, the bell rings signaling its the end of the day. I go to my locker to get my coat when a hand is pushes against my locker and I turn around in agnst.
Its him
"Sorry I didn't introduce myself" he says.
"Im Kai"
