Best Friends? No. FRIENDS!!!

first day

How I got to know her a kinda boring story though.

I was one of the troublemakers of the class back then and my grades weren't very good either. I was in 8th grade (13 years) I was at the back of my class when it came to my marks and I never really payed attention to any of my lessons. I'd always play around with my friends and get into trouble. I used to skip lessons almost all the time. My mom was pretty disappointed (obviously) and I too wanted to change.
At that time there was this other girl in the class (let's call her joan). She was pretty decent and good in her studies. She was always the 10th or 11th in the class (we had around 45 students And I was in 30s 😂😂). So my mom had this idea to make me study with her. I didn't really like the idea at first but then I gave in after sometime. So there I was going to her house almost everyday after school. We even had a few classes together too. And in no time we became close to eachother. (I went from 31st to 21st in that semester. Woohoo! And I kept on marching forward)
