Sheirra heard the bell of her first period. She has no choice but to take off her hood.
Before she goes out of the comfort room, she unties her braided hair and lets it loose around her back. She has beautiful straight long hair. The length covers her buttocks because she often braided them, and her hair becomes a little wavy at the moment.
She put some handful strands to cover each of her front shoulders. Also tried to cover her face. Sheirra takes a deep breath then pulls the door and walks fast. Everyone she passes by looking curiously at her.
Yes, it was the first time she was seen visible to everyone. With her hood on all the time, it covers her face and half of her body. Even some of the mortals can't resist glancing at her.
In her haste, Sheirra unwittingly slams the door of her Language classroom. Everyone stared at her with surprise.
"What the-- who're you?" asked Arturo Evans, her Math professor. "Ms. Murray??" Sheirra nod.
"I'm sorry sir, I..." Sheirra ran the stairs and went to her desk without waiting for her prof to lecture for being late. She could hear whispers and gasps like "Oh" or "Wow" and then some whistling at her.
"Thank you for the grand entrance, Ms. Murray." Her professor said that made the crowd laugh.
She admitted it was her first time to blush publicly and be praised in the crowd. She knows that was more like a compliment than sarcasm. Besides, everyone glances at her differently.
Sheirra searches for Melinda in the classroom. She found her three rows above where she was used to sitting. Melinda looks unhappy.
Melinda was looking at her with rage and she met her gaze. Their eyes wrestle for a few seconds but she decides to withdraw right away, but she gives Melinda a grin.
She didn't wait for her response, Sheirra knew that it made Melinda even madder at her. She felt delighted. She won today.
