"Class!" Mr. Norman yelled startling the small boy next to him. "This is Mitch he is new here. As you know I always tell my students to say something about themselves so Mitch, tell us about you."
Mitch raised an eyebrow, "Umm, uhh I..... I-" He said trying to figure out what to say.
"Come on kid spit it out we don't have all day." Mr. Norman said.
"Je ne parle pas l'anglais." He said. (I don't speak English)
"Come again?"
"O- Only little?" He asked.
"You speak a little bit of English?"
"Oui, Je peux comprendre un peu l'anglais." (Yes I can understand just a little English)
"Ok go find a seat."
Mitch blinked at the teacher and the teacher Pointed to a seat in the room.
"Oh." Mitch said walking to his seat.
"Ok class so...."
Mitch sat down and tuned out the teacher. He focused on the guy next to him. He'd secretly steal glances while the guy wasn't looking.
On and on and on he went to every class confused and lost during lessons.
Lunch he sat alone. He pulled out his notebook and looked at his drawings then found an empty page. He started drawing the guy from his first class. From the long hair to his green eyes he drew every detail even tho he only gotten one glance at his face.
Suddenly he felt someone behind him.
"I'm sorry did I scare you?"
Mitch stared blankly then slowly nodded, "Uh, oui."
"Oui? Oh oui means yes, right?"
"Oui." Mitch said and clapped. "Bien, comment tu t'appelle? Uh, na-name?"
"Name my name? Oh Avi."
"Avi. Je suis Mitch."
"Hello Mitch. Um can I see your drawings?" He said pointing to his notebook.
"Uh oui." He said sliding it over to him.
Avi flipped through the drawings in awe. "These are very nice... uhh bien."
"Merci Avi."
The bell rang then as Avi got to the last drawing. Mitch realized the drawing was of Avi so he grabbed the notebook and shook his hair out his eyes.
"C- class?"
"Uh yeah I'll walk with you."
Mitch nodded.
Throughout the past couple of weeks Mitch got to know Avi and taught him a little bit of French. Avi seemed to really like Mitch and most people didn't like that. (Most girls at that because come on this is Avi we're talking about)
So one day, Avi decided to be sick. Mitch was lonely. All he did was draw. He drew people from his class, a fansign for Beyoncé, and he drew Avi. They day was going good, until a girl walked up to him. The girl was Esther. (I love Esther I swear don't fight me)
"Umm excuse me." She's said sitting next to him in the lunch room (or cafeteria whateva)
"Uh... yes?" Mitch said. Avi may have taught him a little English.
"You know Avi?" She asked.
"Avi? Oui oui. Il... uh He's mon amie." (My friend)
"English please."
