Emine threw open the door. We walked through the halls which were painted white. We stopped at the room and opened the door a crack. We all peeked in. Mr. Miles was sitting on his desk reading a book.
"Are we early?" Blake whispered.
"No, we're late...Of course we're early Einstein!" Samantha said whispering/yelling.
"Shut up Samantha."
"Shut up Blake."
"Lovebirds! Stop fighting!" Matt said.
"LOVEBIRDS?!" They both whisper/yelled.
"Blake's mine!" Emine glared.
"Yeah! Blake's hers." Samantha snapped.
"I'm not hers!"
"Yeah you are! You kissed her." Matt said.
"That was a dare!" Blake snapped.
"Then why didn't you ask Samantha to the dance?"
"Because she hates me! Wait...Why do you hate me?"
"Because you like her." Natalie said looking at my bracelet.
"That's a nice bracelet. Where did you get it?" She asked holding my hand to look at it.
"My friend made it for me when I was 10." And by 'friend' I mean Noah. Emine and Blake went into another argument about their relationship.
"CAN WE PLEASE HOLD BACK ON THE LOVE TRIANGLE?" My eyes widened. They sort of reminded me of Skye, Ben, and Sean. I laughed a little.
"Why are you laughing? Emine glared at me.
"No reason." I replied quietly.
"I don't even know why you're hanging out with us, the popular kids. Because you don't look the least bit popular." She said cheekily. I stared at the ground and decided to walk into class.
"Seriously Emine?! She's more popular then you!" Samantha snapped.
"Really? Have you seen her?" Emine laughed.
"Yes I have. I'm not blind. Unlike some people." She said walking in. Emine stood there shocked.
"Hey girls. What's going on?" He put his book down.
"Um.. nothing! You know...just showing the place to my new bestie!" Natalie said putting an arm around my shoulder. He looked at us and walked towards the door. He opened the door to see Emine and Blake.
"Everyday." She laughed. I looked at the paper on my desk. I knew this concept already. Dad taught me this already over the summer. Natalie and Samantha were talking and arguing about makeup. Kids starting coming in and Mr.Miles was talking to Emine and Blake. I had nothing to do so I took a pencil out and started doing the packet.
I finished 15 minutes later and saw Mr. Miles and the whole class staring at me. I looked around.
"Can I see that packet?" The teacher asked me. I handed it to him nervously. The first day and I'm already in trouble. Great. He looked through it frantically and looked at another packet which I guess was the answer key. He looked at me.
"Could you explain how you got the answer to log864?" I gulped.
"It's easy." I whispered.
"What?" He said.
"It's easy." I said a little louder. I closed my eyes. 'Don't be afraid' is what Noah would tell me.
"The logarithm of x with base b is defined as
logbx=y if and only if by=x
where x>0, b>0, and b≠1." (Don't worry, I don't even know what these math questions mean. I looked it up. 😅)
He stared at me. Every one was. Samantha and Natalie eyes were wide and everyone looked confused.
" you look at the given expression.
log864. You... notice that 64 can be written as a power of 8. So...you use the logarithmic expression to write an exponential equation with base 8, and... then solve.
log864 = x
And you let x= the value of the logarithm
8x= 64
Then...Convert the logarithmic equation to an exponential equation.
Which is 8x =82 that changed into 64=82. And x= 2, so you set the exponents equal." I said nervously. He stared at me. I know. I'm a nerd. But my Dad always teaches me over the summer whether I like it or not. He stared at me wide eyed.
