I reached ten minutes early. I went straight to my locker to check my schedule. I had math first. Great! I love it.

On the way I met Ally. I can see that our friendship is prospering. We had a small talk and accompanied me to my classroom.

Bye!.....

Bye!...

I went to my bench. I placed my bag and was about to take a seat when someone told me that Ally is calling me. I looked at the door of our classroom to see Ally gesturing me to come. I sighed and went to find why she is calling me.

"Now what Ally"

"Just forgot to inform you that don't wait for in the lunch, I won't be there. I have some work. ",she said.

Damn today I'll be alone in the cafeteria.

"ok"

I think Mr. Dawson was late by few minutes today. I got back to my place only to discover that one boy wearing a cap was sitting on my bench and my bag was thrown on the floor . I picked it up .
I was not able to see the guy's face because his head was somewhat down and top of it he was wearing a cap. I was wondering that is it that sunny in the classroom which compelled him to wear a cap. All fashion freaks!!!
Anyway I was furious about his rude behaviour.

I bent a bit down so that he can hear me and said in somewhat a rude way, " Excuse me Mr. , its my bench ,I came here first and see I kept my bag here and it is shameful and rude of you that you threw it." I took a deep breathe .
He did not turn his head up . He was in the same position.

I groaned,"Excuse me."

"Miss ,this is my place and I have been sitting here throughout. " Still his head down .
I don't know what he is doing with his brainless head down ,is he kissing the desk? Ugh ! Loopy people.

"Really I can't see your name written on it and last three days I am sitting here. ",I argued.

A boy with noodles on his head maybe his friend told him that I was new here and when the cap man was absent I used to sit on his bench.
Oh ! So this cap man was absent when I was present.

"If you would have told me that you sit here and pleaded me to go , I would have gone to another bench but you threw my bag .You lout." I took a pause and continued, "You are such a stingy, cretin, person. " I execrated so much that I myself don't know what I am speaking.

He stood up from his seat.
...
...oh shit...
....
I was shocked to see the same guy at the cafe whom I made him smile. Oh God help me . Curse this mouth of mine . I used all the informal words that I knew from the dictionary but it was worth. Never knew this person whom I met yesterday will be my classmate and enemy and I thought him to be patient. Really he doesn't even come last in the patient peoples' list.

"You think I should plead you and dare you..................wait! you are the girl in the cafe right? " ,he said anger coming out of him and then a sudden shock.

"Yes"

Now ,it was a dead lock situation.
What to do?
What to say?

His friend could sense the tornado formed in this situation . Thank god we did not attract creepy audience.

"You are such a scoundrel, you chicks are the same. Just pretend to be sweet and innocent but you aren't . At least be scared of God if not us." ,he said.

How dare he say these unpleasant things to me. I am not like others, I have basic ethics.

"And the adjectives you gave me are well suited to you not me.", he said with anger and revenge.
