Neil's Point Of View

I am a 17 years old student and this is my first saying goodbye to all my friends for another new episode of my journey as a student.

Hmm...Made a huge decision is not easy while it has to argued with my dad and mom. Well...it is my dad chose to transfer me to Technical High school. Because everyone knew it was the best High school ever..so the news about the Technical school dragged my dad to discuss a deal with me. Oh no...

At first, I disagree with my dad to get transferred. Besides, I won't leave my friends here and I don't love to start over with new friends and study. But, dad maybe was right. Being transfer to another school maybe will make my result better than before and I can have a new friend also. Wait, that's not mean that I don't love my friends. Still, I love them and school here.

So I made a deal with my dad after he made perfect to wins and changed my opinion about another school. "But dad, if you transfer me to Technical high school, you must promise to allow me to study in Art course." I made a deal with my dad plus with my eyes narrowed to his eyes. Hopefully, it works. "Okay then," said my dad and he grabbed my hand to walk. It is not a big deal really?.

This is the day where I should let all my friends know that will be transferred to another high school. But, I prefer to keep silence until the bell ringing for the break time. It shocked me to death. I take a proper look at all my friends. They started to chats and made a joked around as usual. They laugh over and over again and I lost in my thought.

"Neil!!" someone has hit my shoulder and of course it makes me jumping shocked. "What strong Niel? You just keep silence while we were chatting with each other for planning a new picnic trip." Denisha said and touching my forehead with her palm to check if I am okay or not. "I have something to talk to all of you..." I manage my self to sit properly facing all of them. "What is it, Niel?" Liya interrupted the moment while I am not finishing my sentences to speak yet. "Actually...I agreed with my dad to transfer me to Technical High School...He already sends all my documents and today is my last day in a class being with all of you."

I can't control my emotions and I started crying. "And you never told us about this until now?" Denisha replay with her tears falling through her cheek. "I managed to talk about this but I can't. I am sorry Denisha, Liya.John.Axel...Max, Aleera." I look deeply through their red eyes with my tears never stop falling. "I am so sorry". I sobbed and closed my face with my hands. "It's okay Niel..we understand you. But still, I can't believe that today is our last gathering in one class. We will miss you after this by the way." Aleera put her arms on my shoulder to hug me.

"Yeah..it's okay Niel. We still can meet each other during our semester break or during our holiday. We still can continue our planning for a picnic. Isn't it guys?" Denisha said with a smile on her face and wipes away my tears. "Yeah..yahuuu!!" all the three boys shout louder to chilled me.

"Neil?" My dad voice suddenly called out my name. "Well Neil, I'd already told your teacher Mr. Alex about you. So, we need to hurry. Today is your registration day there." my dad smiled at all my friends let them know that it was the signal for me for saying goodbye.

"Guys...I honor all of you a lot. Thanks for being my best friend and I hope our friendship will last forever. I apologize for all my mistakes. I love you all and will miss all of you." My tears falling again and Denisha, Liya and Aleera hugged me. The bell ringing again tells the break time is over. I pull off their embrace as Mr. Alex coming to continue their class. "Okay class..please sit down...no need to great me. Just, one of your friends will leave us here and move to Technical High school today. So I give some time to all of you for saying goodbye to Neil." Mr.Alex sit down and continue to open his laptop.

Well...I wipe my tears after the last minute together with them. I thank Mr.Alex before I step outside the classroom. My best friends waving at me and I kiss my palm blow them a kiss. It is too childish but there is no time to be shy.

I continue to walk after my dad with my head repeatedly look behind seeing that my friends still waving their hands for me. They have lost from my sight after I step down the stairs. I follow my dad to the car that parked outside the school's gate. As I reach the car, I open the car's door, sit and tighten my seat belt. I exhale my breath slowly to feel ease while my dad started the car's engine and open the car's mirror beside me."Thank you Mr. Dean!" said my dad to the security guard and drive away leaving the school.

On the way heading to Technical High School, I felt my handphone vibrated and message pop up on the screen. I quickly open up and read.

See you soon Niel. We will miss you always. Feel comfortable with your new school and don't get bullied there. Keep contacting us while you're free. Search your new friends there make sure you are not alone. But don't ever forget us. Promise me.

Lots of Love.~ Denisha.

I replay her text.

Thanks to my bestie. It's a promise for keeping all of you in my heart. I will miss all of you too. See ya soon.

Lots of Love~Neil

I smiled after replying to her text. I feel ease and continue to look at the road. "It's everything okay, Neil?" My dad asked. "Okay dad, just I feel so dizzy. Allow me to sleep in a while dad" My dad touch my forehead with his palm checking on me. "okay then sweetie".

I close my eyes as my head feel so dizzy.

To be continued...
