We arrived at school a bit before the bell rang. We asked a couple people where the offices were and eventually found it. Aj and I got our locker numbers and schedules.
"What're your classes?" I ask him.
"English, Science, Math, PE, Choir, and History," he tells me. I slump down a little.
"The only class we have together is Choir," I say, disappointedly.
"That's alright. It's alright, Jez. I'll see you at lunch. Besides, we have phones," he winks to me. I just smile a little and head to History while he heads to English. I walk in and give the teacher my papers.
"Well hello there Ms. Nguyen. You may sit wherever you'd like your highness," he says with a British accent. I sit in the back corner of the room. The class is filled with kids sitting with excellent posture, manicured hands, beautiful faces, and they basically just look like perfect robots. They are all even leaning in as if they are really really interested in what the teacher is saying. I put my binder in my desk so there's some coverage for my phone, but it's not too suspicious. I start to text Aj.
Me: Is it just me or does everyone look like robots?
Aj: Robots.
Me: do you think we'll be able to make it till lunch?
Aj: I think I'm gonna get trampled.
Me: me too.
Aj: alright. I'll see you at lunch.
Me: see you
I smile to myself and turn off my phone.
"Am I amusing you, Ms. Nguyen?" The teacher asks, making me snap my head up and everyone snap their heads towards me.
"Um....no sir. I was just smiling at how fascinating this history is," I lie.
"Uh-huh," he says, disbelievingly. "Remember Ms. Nguyen. Your grandmother has given me clear instructions about you. You are no longer in an American village school. You are in a school in which you belong. The school filled with emperor's sons and daughters. The school filled with the richest children in the Isle. You must not bring in any poor people knowledge from your poor excuse of a high school back in America," he says, sneering the last part. (I really hope that doesn't offend anybody. I'm sorry if it does. I just put that in to show that this teacher is gonna be a real witch. And you and I both know I don't mean the word 'witch')
I plaster on a fake innocent smile.
"Well in my 'poor excuse of a school,'" I start, still smiling. "We never even heard of this Island."
I heard gasps from all around the room.
"Mr. Smythe! You said this was the most famous place in the world!" A student whines.
"Yeah! You said whatever goes on here is transferred all around the world so we could be famous!" Another kid complains. I roll my eyes and he tries to calm the class down.
*Timeskip to lunch brought to you by my laziness*
I buy my lunch and look around for Aj.
"Jezamine!" I hear from behind me. I turn around and Aj is sitting by himself at a table. I smile and go to sit with him.
"How were your classes?" I ask.
"Horrible. Everyone here has such high egos and they're all so snobby!" He exclaims.
"I know right?!" I agree.
"I really miss America," he says, looking down on his lap.
"I do too," I say, placing my hand on his which is on the table. There's a bit of silence between us for a little.
"Although, I don't miss the school lunches," he jokes and I can tell he's trying to lighten the mood.
"Yeah," I laugh, looking that the lunch that is on my tray. At America, there's usually some disgusting pizza or at least a burger that's a little good for lunch. But here at the Isle, I'm staring at a freshly cooked beef patty on top of freshly baked buns and cheese that was just made today along with newly leafed lettuce.
And for a side, there is warm French fries that were made in the healthiest oil there is. I took a bite out of the burger and tasted heaven on my tongue.
"This is really good," I mutter. Aj laughs a little and takes a bite out of his own. I start to look around and notice lots of people staring at us.
"They're staring," I whisper to Aj.
"Ignore them," he whispers back. I nod and go back to my burger. But, everyone's whispering is so loud I could hear them .
"Did you see how they just attacked that burger? Very unladylike!"
"She didn't cut her burger with a knife and fork like a normal person! She must've been raised in a barn!"
"Their elbows are on the tables! Have they no manners?!"
I look to Aj and he gives me solemn eyes. I wiped my mouth with a napkin after finishing my burger and started to eat my fries. I still heard the 'whispers.'
"Look at how much she's eating! It is wrong for a lady to be eating that much!"
"Is she not watching her figure? Does she not care about what example she is setting?!"
"That looks terrifying! I lady not eating a salad?! Horrifying."
"What kind of lady eats a burger with fries?!"
I put my head on the table and bang it a couple times. Aj just rubs my back, trying to calm me down. I can hear the bottom of his chair scrape as he scoots closer.
"It's gonna be alright," he whispers, soothingly. "I'm here for you."
"Thank you," I whisper back. "I'm here for you too."
"I know," he smiles. Then three chairs at our table scrap to show that people have sat in them. We look up and three girls are staring back at me. They are all brunette with the same hairstyle and the same heavy makeup.
"How can I help you?" I ask.
"So the rumors are true after all," the girl in the middle says with a strong French accent.
"I don't know-"
"The American singer and the runaway princess have come to our school. I should've known that it was you two by the way that you act," she says.
"The way that we act?" I ask.
"Well yes. The slobbish eating, the slouching, the lack of makeup, and not to mention lack of beauty-"
"Okay I'm going to stop you right there," Aj says. "Jezamine is the most beautiful girl here, with or without makeup."
I feel the blood rush to my cheeks as I look at the table to avoid making eye contact with anyone.
"Sure we slouch and eat like slobs but at least we aren't spoiled brats and act like snobs," Aj says to them.
"We aren't snobs! Now don't make me cry or else my new expensive mascara is gonna run! Oh did I mention I had new expensive mascara? Daddy bought it for me yesterday," The girl in the middle says snobbishly.
