Anna (ON HOLD)

Knowing

"Hey!" said Anna as she came to my table where i sat alone in the cafeteria. "Hi! So where were you?"
"Where were you?" I asked in a bored and frustrated way. "Hey did someone slapped you?" asked Anna amusingly. I became more annoyed. "Anna! No one slapped me. Its just that someone called Mrs. Martha has ordered me to be friends with her spoilt daughter Amelia. And both of those mom and her lil girl get on my nerves!" I said a bit too loud. "Woah woah.....girl don't shout" Anna said. I looked up to discover everyone in the café staring at me like I was mad or something. Oh yeah.....just remembered I was mad. "Shit." I mumbled under my breath. "Yeah she already started getting on your nerves?" Asked Anna like she was experienced in this, "well, I can understand. The thing is that actually Mrs. Martha also studied in this school when her mother taught English language and Martha had been one arrogant student too and she was unfortunately one bright bee. And now Amelia is inherited everything from her mom. She will in future take the responsibility of teaching English too and all of these descendants would never leave the students relaxed anytime....plus plus Martha is also the discipline incharge so she is like that. She is just like her mom..." "Hahaha.....wait! Did you say English? No way! Miss Martha teaches English. No! My dreams have been shattered!" I exclaimed. " Stop Drama Queen! Why have your dreams shattered?"
"Because I love English. And how cruel that miss Martha will teach it. Well. Apart from that you have got interesting information about this place....how come?"
"That's because I am an old student. I have been studying here since I was five. This very building."
"Wow. By the way Mrs. Martha had driven me out of the paths you took me in quite badly. She asked why was I in the forbidden part??? Uh..... seriously? I mean why does this school have a forbidden part?"
"She asked you about it and you told her that I took you there?" She said terrified.
"No no I did not. I lied that I found the way myself and ended up there. I couldn't put you in trouble." She smiled at this, "but the thing irritating me is that why did you take me to the forbidden part and why is it forbidden?"
"Gosh you ask too many questions together! I can't go to the other restroom because .....uh...all the popular girls go there and they bully me so I use the forbidden one instead. And I will tell you about the part later. Not now. Okay?"
"Okay." I said quietly.
When we stopped talking to eat I heard from the table behind us "she was strange from the second I saw her." "Yeah right who the hell is she talking to?" "Why did she even came to this school? She doesn't belong here." "I wonder what's her name, maybe it's Maddie." "Hahaha!" And this was followed by a few chuckles and a loud voice saying Gretel. Yeah yeah it came from my side. "My name is Gretel! Thank you very much. And you don't have to decide if I belong here or not. Okay? Why do you guys have to be such snotty heads? Why do you have to think that you are the best?" I suddenly stood up and started. "What now? No words..? You guys are cowards you know that? I am so frustrated by you just the first day but I won't let you bully me! Okay. Now I will sit down. Better not mess with me again and don't talk about me behind my back and especially not when I can hear it." Okay that was one crazy speech maybe I said too much...a bit too much.
Sure I was eavesdropping at them because it was about me and it was wrong so I had to say something about it. Well now I have spilled out the truth that I was a creepy eavesdropper. Just awesome but I was happy they couldn't compete me by the excellent argumentative personality I was, it did help me somewhere. How satisfying. Well, my eavesdropping has an I retesting story I'd like to narrate. Back when I was seven we had to live at the place of my mom's uncle when my dad was searching for a house for rent. He was a nice burly man of 57 that time and had a pleasant wife. I liked them and so did my mom. They didn't have any children so they kept me as a fear and took all pains to spoil me yet my mom didn't let that happen. I used to wake up very early in the morning, get out of our room and eavesdrop at the couple. I used to hear them talking about me from their shut door and suddenly they'd open. The first time they found out I was listening to their talks they stared at me and then started chuckling and called me in and then all those days they used to call me in and gave me cherries to eat, they thought it was funny. I had been crazy to meet them before we left for the country side but my mom didn't let me. I know they'd be surprised to see me all grown up, okay not all grown up but I am a teen now. So coming back to the story, one day my mom found out I used to listen to what they talked about so she scolded me and they explained that eavesdropping was a bad habit and good children didn't do it so I stopped doing it so that's how I learned not to hear what others talked about, bad habit but I sure do it when it's necessary.
"Woah....a round of applause!" I heard Anna say as I settled back down. She was really cool and funny. Never had I got such a friend before. I was grateful. But I only had her now. Till now. So we continued the conversation and I asked her what her parents did. She told me that her mom was a doctor and her dad had died when she was little. I was sorry and when I said I would meet her mom sometime so she refused quickly saying, "no! I mean she is a busy woman and you won't be able to meet her anytime and I hardly talk to her so no chance." I had no problem with that although she said it a bit too quickly but nevermind. So I asked her if she would like to meet my parents today as her mom was out of town so there's no problem with that. She hesitated at first but agreed. My mom's going to be surprised that I made a good friend just the first day even though I did something very stupid. There were too many stories for one day.
My time at school I spent thinking about Anna seeing my mom and guessing her reaction while staring at the back board. Also I put up ear buds in my ears so I won't hear the rubbing of chalk against the board and surprisingly didn't get caught, maybe because Mrs. Martha didn't have her class with me today. Right, nobody can forget Miss Martha and her daughter Amelia. Let's see what happens when Anna comes home.
