I left before the rest of the crowd so that I could get to the front office without traffic. I followed the rest of the directions the girl gave me until I saw the sign 'School Office.' I opened the door and walked over to the receptionist who was behind a counter with a computer near her. She wore a thin, weary smile, and said,
"Hello, what's your name?" For this mission, my new name is Essix. I answered,
"Essix Anderson."
"Oh... here is your schedule. Have a good day."
"You, too." As I walked out, something, rather someone bumped into me. It was Amara who was about 5'7, had jet black curls, and caramel skin. I looked down at the books and papers sprawled on the ground, so I bent down to help her pick it up. When we finished, she said,
"Thanks, and, um sorry about bumping into you."
"Yeah, no problem. Hey, do you know where Mrs. Stratos Spanish class is?"
"Yep, that's my first period."
As she finished talking, Micheal came up to us. He said,
"Ammu, you would not believe what I did this summer." He rolled up his sleeve revealing a butterfly tattoo. Amara stated,
"You, idiot! If your mom finds out-"
"Which she won't."
"Sure... remember that time you got a tongue piercing, she knew as soon as you walked in your house."
"Trust me; she won't know. She's off in Milan for a week with her models."
"What happens when she comes back?"
"I'll figure it out...so you are?" He said, directing their conversation back to me,
"Essix."
"Cool name. What's your 1st-period class."
"Miss Stratos Spanish class."
"Same, but a word of advice is: get a front row seat."
"Why?" He said, chuckling,
"You'll see."
Micheal led the way to Spanish class, while Amara told me about all the pros and cons of a school like this.
