Alhamdulillah. 100% on my math test. I'm pretty used to this. I'm always that girl that gets the best grades. Anyway, I'm Aceil. I'm in my last year of high school. I can't believe it. There's only 2 months till graduation. Subhanallah how quickly time flies.

SIMMER DOWN EVERYONE, says my teacher Mrs Roohi. She's one of my favorite teachers but can get pretty annoying at times. THANKS YOU, NOW I HAVE A SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENTS TO MAKE, she says with her Pakistani Accent. Everyone laughs but listens carefully. ANYWAY WE HAVE A NEW STUDENT COMING TODAY, AND HE SHOULD BE HERE ANY MINUTE NOW.
I look at my best friend Jenna. New student? Schools almost over what's the point of coming now?, I tell her.
Jenna looks at me and smiles evilly.
Why are you smiling like that Bro? You look constipated stop, I say
ACEIL ARE YOU DUMB DID YOU NOT HEAR HER SHE SAID "HE SHOULD BE HERE ANY MINUTE, she says putting an emphasis on the He
Ok what's your point? I ask
FINALLY YOU CAN GET A CRUSH, she says sounding like she's in elementary school
Jenna, are you actually dumb?? We're not little girls to develop crushes & I could care less about guys and you know that.
ITS JUST BECAUSE YOU HAVEN'T FOUND THE ONE YET, she says
Psht please "The one" I say with a bored tone
Your saying that now but when he comes you'll like him and that's for sure, Jenna says
JENNA THIS GUY COULD BE A DRUG DEALER FOR ALL WE KNOW WHAT DO YOU MEAN ILL LIKE HIM FOR SURE?? DO YOU KNOW WHO THIS NEW STUDENT IS OR SOMETHING??
What? I never said that haha what are you talking about Aceil?, Says Jenna
Whatever Jenna. I don't need a dumb crush to obsess over, I say
Jenna looks at me and rolls her eyes to the back of her head, being the sassmaster she is. (LOL)
She mutters something under her breath, it sounds like, "you'll see hmara, inshallah you'll like him". I'm probably imagining.
Suddenly, there's a knock on the door and everyone turns and looks as a handsome boy walks in, his gaze on the ground, looking shy and respectful.
All the girls in the class adjust their positions in their seats except for me and Jenna. I hear a girl behind me say, DAMN SALLY LOOK AT HIM HES PERFECT AND HES MINE.
Me and Jenna look at each other and roll our eyes and laugh at the one and only, Karol.
The new student looks at Jenna and his eyes light up. She smiles and mouths "ahleinnn"
I look at Jenna, what was that all about?, I ask
She ignores me as Mrs. Roohi looks at him and says Hello Zayn, welcome to our class please tell us about yourself...

Hmara: donkey, dumb girl
Ahlein: Welcome
Inshallah: God willing
