First Day!

Alicia's P.O.V.

I walked down the hallway or you can say stumbled down the hallway. I could barely make out my way through the crowd.

The principle had said that my first class was three rooms ahead of her office to the left.

So put my hand on the walls felt the walls and lockers. I counted the rooms as I went. I still havent got accustomed to this blindness. And i guess I never will.

I couldn't see but I surely could hear. I could make out almost anything just by hearing and my ears worked ten times better than anyones.

I  could sense the rain before it actually fell.

I could hear the footsteps of people from a distance.

The bell rang and I increased my walking speed. I was feeling really lighheaded and maybe that's why i couldn't hear someone walking because the next thing I knew was that i walked into someone and fell on the ground.

I heard all my books scatter as I groaned.

My butt was in pain. A lot of pain.

Then i realised that there was probably someone else with me too. Maybe that someone was standing there and looking at me like I was crazy.

"Ouch!" I groaned again." I am so sorry!"

I tried to find something to support me in getting up but i couldnt. My had just wandered about in mid air.

"Here! Let me help you!" A husky male voice said.

My was breathing caught in my throat. The voice was so plesant. I bet that the boy was handsome too.

" Thank you!" I said as I tried to find his hand and then I finally found it.

I took his hand and felt sparks fly throughout my hand.

I got lost in my dreamland as the boy pulled me up. How handsome would he be? Its true that I am blind but I can still imagine cute boys.

Then suddenly the hand holding me up was gone as i fell to the floor again.

"Ugh!" I groaned again.

 "what are you doing?" I asked out loud.

But i didnt get a reply.

"Hey!" I said again.Still no reply.

Then i heard footsteps walking away fom me.

What a gentleman! Leaving a blind lady down on the floor in pain.

 I tied to find something to help me get up and after someminutes of wanding my hand in thin air, I found tha handle of a locker.

I got up after stumbling a bit over my books.

Then i started searching for my books and picking them up one by one.

God I am late on my first day! What will the teachers think of me? I had already made a bad impression on them.

Oh no!

Then I started walking again as I counted the rooms.

2,3....There!

I had atlast reached my classroom.

I could hear the female teacher telling the class about a book by Shakespere called 'The Tempest'. And the students in the class were wispering among themselves.

I knocked on the door."May I come in ma'am?" I  asked politely.

She stopped teaching and the class went quiet.

"May I ask where you were young lady for almost... thirty minutes?" She asked.

I couldnt tell her that I fell because I am blind. The whole class would call me weak and they would make fun of me. So I came up with the most favourite excuse of the students who are late.

"I got lost, ma'am." I said, keeping my tone polite.

"That is all that you could come up with?" She asked.

"It doesnt matter! Go sit on the third bench beside Oliver." She added before I could say anything.

The class started making noise again.I walked slowly, counting the desks until I bumped into a desk.

"Watch out! Are you blind?" A high pitched girly voice shouted.

I wanted to shut my ears. I hate this sound.

"UMM...Yes,I am!" I replyed.

The whole class went quiet. I could hear a few gasps.

I continued waking until I reached my desk.

The teacher started teaching again. She was talking about a school play based on the plays written by Shakespere. I listened quietly.

"Hey!" The boy next to me wispered. I guess his name was Oliver.

"Yes?" I asked, lowering my head.

"Hii ! I am Oliver." He said in a polite tone.

"I am Alicia." I said softly.

" You really blind?" he asked.

I was taken aback by that question.I stayed quiet for a minute.

" sorry. You dot have to answer. Oh I am so stupid!" He muttered.

"Dont say that. Yes, i am blind!" I answered.

" Would you like to be my friend?" I asked after a while.

"Ofcourse!" He said. " Why not?

I smiled a bit. Atleast I had made one friend on my first day.

The bell rang and the and I could hear the loud footsteps and talking of the student walking out of the door.

" What is your next class?" Oliver asked.

" Its History." I replied, packing my stuff.

"oh! Will you sit with me during lunch? Maybe I could introduce you to my friends?" he asked in a hopeful tone.

" Why not!" I replied happily as I took my bag.

" That's great!" he said happily." Do you want me to show you the history room?"

"It's fine. I'll find it." I said.

" Ok! bye then! see ya later!" He said and walked away.

HIstory hmm......

I liked History. It was one of my favourite subjects.

I walked out of the class hoping that I would reach the History room safely.

I could hear the loud noises in the corridor. It was like a jungle! 

And now I had to find my way out of this jungle.

Well, here goes nothing!

Sorry guys.

This was all that I could come up with.

I know its not good and i'll try to improve it.
