"Settle down, class! We have a new student today! Sadey, would you like to stand here, and tell us a little bit about yourself?"
"No, I don't think I-"
"Come on! We're all dying to know about you!" My new teacher was definitely persistent.
"Okay, um, my name is Sadey Hotsprings. I prefer to keep myself as a mystery. And, that's it."
"Okay? Well, I guess i'll seat you.... ooh! There's an open desk right there!" She pointed to the fourth desk in the third row. "As you know, Sadey, my name is Mrs. Bullock. Today, we'll be discussing descriptive words. For instance, instead of "ran", one might say "raced". Do you all understand my point?" I stared at my textbook below me as my mind took off. I was in a daydream worrying what would happen if I accidentally spill out too much information about myself, or act older than my age. "Sadey!" I snapped out of it as Mrs. Bullock called on me.
"Yes?"
"What is descriptive word for chubby?"
"Fat?" The classroom busted out in a roaring laughter. I thought they were laughing at me, but they were actually laughing with me for some reason. I'm assuming they liked what I has said. A couple kids gave me the thumbs up. A boy sitting next to me gave me a high five. A gold blond haired boy with freckles that sat one desk in front of me smiled directly at me. My thought ran away instantly, and I started to smile back automatically. He looked as if I saw him in a commercial before.
At an empty lunch table I sat momentarily. The commercial boy sat next to me along with another girl. We talked for a while about various things like our family, animals, and this school. The other two students, Amber and Cody, both seemed a misfit. I understood how they felt, because I had been there myself.
"Sadey! I gave you a very important mission! Have you yet let me down?" A man in a suit asked me with a firm voice and no emotion. I was in a small meeting room. Three men and I were sat at a white fold up table.
"No, I haven't."
"Have you yet gave away too much information?"
"No, I haven't."
"Very well, then. I am so glad you are mature enough for this important mission." I looked down nervously at my lap where my arms were placed. "Sadey? You know that Miles didn't even want to give you this special job. He didn't think you had what it takes. I convinced him to let you try it out for at least a week on trial bases. You best work fast, mature, and know why you came to the school." I put my head up straight with a firm emotionless expression.
"Right!"
"Do not tell anyone any personal information! Do not get caught up with being a kid again just because you are surrounded by other kids. Do not make it obvious. Understand?"
"Yes I do!" I stated still firm. As I almost marched out the door, he stopped me.
"And hey..." I froze in my track. As soon as I turned my head to him, he continued. "Do not get hurt."
"No promises, Bill." I smiled.
