Word of Advice: If your teacher asked you to stay after class and show the new student around the school, DON'T.
Even if he offered you extra credit or the student is kind of hot, DON'T

-----

My accounting teacher caught my attention as he went to our classroom with bandaged hand. If that is not out of ordinary he called me, his not-so-bright student,  to stay after class which means I will skip my lunch and my time with my friends.

"____, I am thankful that you did not let me down" He blankly said.

Before I open my mouth, he raise a finger and frown. "No, it is not something to do with grades, think of this as an extra credit"

Mister Cruz is teaching for straight twenty years. His face is wrinkled and he has a cap of graying hair on his head. I can't guess how old he is but he became my mother's teacher when she is same aged as me.

"I am glad for the offer, sir but-" Before I can even finish what I am saying, a silhouette appeared behind the windows. I craned my neck around to see this figure and caught a glimpse of shiny jewelry on the person. Mr. Cruz put one finger on my hand and stood up.

"I cannot ask any person to do this" He muttered more to himself than his student. "This is our new student and I want you to show him around the school and answer his questions"

Before we continue:

I am just your average student in the back row of an average 10th grade classroom. I am not special, yep I have a handful of friends but I am not that noisy. So you can guess how I am surprised when my least favorite teacher asked me for something. I am also not rich or daughter of some political person, I am just the oldest child of _____ family, my mother has no job and my father is a meat vendor in the nearest market in the city.

You pretty get the idea of who am I? Right, so we both know I am not that special to be noticed by a teacher like Mr. Cruz. Think of me as a wallflower.

So going back, My eyes followed my teacher as he bend to open the door. I heard someone laughing and he scolding him.

"Alfonso, do not be glum! Laugh with me" The new student just called my teacher by his first name!

"____, this is the new exchange student" He open the door and let the mysterious rude student in. "Ozymandias Cruz, my grandchild"

A tan skinned person entered. He have a mop of raven hair that matches his almost golden eyes. He is kind of good looking, I give points to that. Wearing a stylish custom made black parka and gray pants, he can be mistaken by a child of a celebrity. Plus add that exotic name and accent, he is hotness personified.

"So I am now your grandchild? Fine I can play with that" Turning his gaze to me, Ozy-something's lips lit a smile. "Another female subject I see!" He rushed to my line of view and put a hand on my shoulder.

I naturally swipe his hand out and try not to kick his private parts but there is something strange about this person. He emits fear and charisma at the same time. I only stood still and look at Mister Cruz and back at him.

"Ozymandias" The teacher warned.

"Fine, oh my beloved grandfather of mine" Ozy-what's his name's voice tone is full of humor. If they can pull out that grandfather-grandchild thing, I do not buy it.

He put his hand on one of the parka's pocket and went straight to my teacher. His attention span to me is way too low but not surprising when it comes to me.

"Don't humor me, my grandfather, is this the replacement?" He wave his hand in front of me. "You could have picked a better substituted that is not too bland and weak"
