"i'll wait."
whispers float in the air. papers shuffle in the teachers hands. people steadily breath as rain patters against the windows. nearby a girl sips quietly on her tea with a book in her nimble hands.
my foot bounces up and down. rushed homework stares back. the class whispers and giggles. the teacher waits patiently. her annoyance radiates off in strong waves.
"okay lets all settle down." the teach forces a smile on her face. her teeth clenched tightly. ms.ross's chest rises fast. every breath is heard throughout the enclosed room. her patience can be seen dwindling down. every second ticking down to her timer. ready to set off and blow.
"shh guys." liz allan shifts in her seat. her index finger pressed against her plump lips. liz's olive toned skin glows under the dim fluorescent lights. every shift of her body, her sweater followed in pursuit making sure her body looked perfect no matter what angle.
silence floats down on the class. their mouths clamped shut. doe eyes stare at liz with awe. the teacher simply rolls her eyes.
"lets begin with today's lesson." my head rolls back. the back wall supports my head as i drift into my dreams and thoughts.
—
"im felling super super super today." a soft giggle escapes the mouth of a girl. i push my self harder into the corner. the shadows covering my small frame.
"did you see liz's sweater?" another girl asks. a soft click and the taps of nails against the sink counter fill the small gap of silence.
"was it new?" girl number one asks back. her voice covered in a think layer of confusion.
"no we've seen it with jeans but she's wearing a skirt this time." a few clanks of metal and shuffles of feet the bathroom is empty again.
inhale. my chest rises.
exhale. a rush of air escapes my lips.
i fish into my backpack next to me. a few encounters with papers, my hand clasps against my pb and j sandwich.
a few seconds into my "lunch" two boys rush into the bathroom.
"dude liz totally checked you out!" one excitedly does a dance.
"wait seriously?" another presses for answers.
"yeah her eyes were all over you!" a shout escapes from the first boy. his voice so excited i could hear the smile on his face.
