“Talk to strangers politely... Every friend you have now was once a stranger, although not every stranger becomes a friend.”

― Israelmore Ayivor, The Great Hand Book of Quotes

        "Are you okay?" Kaleb asks as we both walk furiously down the halls of the school.

       "Yes, why would you ask?" I reply, glancing over my shoulder quickly to look at Kaleb.

       "Well because of what just happened in that class. You were up and out of there like that." He says snapping his fingers explaining how fast I booted it out of there.

       "Yeah well I have other classes to get to." I lie.

       "Natalia," He says with worry in his voice as we turn the corner to our locker area.

       "What?" I ask, reaching my locker, opening it and not bothering to look at him. I take my books out for my next class and lock my locker again but hesitate to turn around and face him.

       "Natalia," Kaleb says again, and this time I do turn around and give him my full attention.

       "What." I whisper, breathing out the word'.

       "I know what happened in class had some effect on you. I know what happened that night at the party, and I just want to tell you that it's okay to break down, and I think that you're really brave." My heart nearly melts and I drop my head to hide the blush that is beginning to form on my cheeks.

       "Thanks." I reply, still staring at the floor. "Well, I should really get to class." I reply turning to walk away and head to the east end of the school for my Media class.

       "Let me walk you." Kaleb states suddenly, and I stop in my tracks and tense up.

       Relax Natalia.

       I turn slowly back to face Kaleb and force a friendly smile on my face. "Sure."

        It's just a walk, it won't kill me.

       Kaleb gives me a smile in return and walks to my side so we could walk together. Neither of us say anything to each other, we just walk. I can tell Kaleb wants to say something though as he keeps clearing his throat and looking at me. We reach my class a few minutes before the bell is supposed to ring and I stand outside the class and turn to Kaleb to say goodbye.

       "Natalia do you want to hang out sometime?" Kaleb blurts out and I take a step back out of shock. "I'm sorry, I just screamed that at you." He says running a hand through his dark hair.

       "Yeah, you kind of did." I laugh awkwardly, nodding my head.

       "But did you want to?" He asks again leaning forward with his hands in the pockets of his jeans.

       "Um, can I get back to you on that?" I say crossing my arms and holding my books tight against my chest as I lean against the wall.

       "Oh, yeah for sure." Kaleb says nodding his head. "Well have a good class." He continues, turning around and walking back the way we originally came from. I watch him as he turns a corner and disappears before turning and entering my own class. The bell rings as I take my seat at my own computer and pull up my project and begin to edit some of the footage I already have.
