As we walk into the class, we were the 5th and 6th people to get there, Tal sat at his assigned seat and I just stood at the side of the classroom. I looked up to see tal tapping the desk next to him with his left hand and with his right hand flagging me towards him. I walked to the desk and sat down like I had already been in that class before. "Good morning class! She yelled to the class. "I hear we have a new student today!!! Raise your hand new student." She said looking around the classroom. I raised my hand and covered my face out of embarrassment. "Well hello there... Harley!!!" She said looking at her clip board to figure out my name. "Harley, you don't have to be nervous, I'm right here with you each step of the way, if you need me." Tal said with a smile from ear to ear. "Thank you Tal, that means the world to me." I said continuing to blush. "Excuse me lovebirds, do you guys need a detention for disrupting my class?" The teacher said. "Nope!!!" I yelled. "Good." The teacher yelled eye-balling me and Tal. "Excuse me Ms.Howser, Harley Rose is being signed out." The loud speaker said. "Thank you." Ms.Howser said the the speaker. "Here take this and don't show anyone else." Tal said handing me a piece of paper. "Ok I won't, I will look at it when I get home." I said while zipping up my backpack and throwing it on my back. As I stuffed it in my pocket and ran out of the room. "To the dentist I go!!" I yelled as I skipped across campus.
~~~~~~~~After the Dentist~~~~~~~~~~
Me and my mom jumped in the car and drove to get food at a delicious burger place called In-and-out, I ordered a Neapolitan milk shave and an animal style burger with no onions or lettuce. My mom just got a large soda and animal style fries. I grabbed my phone and saw that I had a text message...
+1-234-567-8910: Hey!!! It's Bella, you know, the girl from the office this morning? You know what never mind, but anyway, I saw that Tal handed you a piece of paper, what does it say?I didn't know what to say to that so I just acted natural...
Me: Hey Bella and sorry, I can't tell you what the note said, Tal told me not to show the note to anybody.
I didn't receive any other text messages until later that night. I was really curious what the note said. I pulled it out of my pocket, uncrumpled the paper, and whispered each word to myself,
Harley,
I need you do one think for me. Can you please help me with the homework that we got in homeroom since there was no school yesterday? If you can, you can call me or text me on my cell, 1-324-749-5601, or DM me on my insta if you have one,@talfishman.
Thx,
Tal❤️I grabbed my phone and dialed, "1,3,2,4,7,4,9,5,6,0,1. Call." I said to myself as I dialed the exact number he gave me.
Tal: Hello?
Me: Hey Tal!! It's Harley
Tal: Oh thank you so much!! I really need your help on the homework, can you help me?
Me: Yea or course! What problem do you need help on?
Tal: #3
Me: Ok.. so if you multiply 1/3 by 6/3 using the reciprocal of 6/3 you will get 3/6 or 1/2 then you multiply straight across and you should get 3/12 and then if you simplify that to its simplest form, you will get 1/4. Is that all you needed help with?
Tal: Yep. That was it, you are really smart!!!
Me: Awww!!! Thank you!!! That's so sweet!!!
Tal: Alright, well, I will see you at school tomorrow.
Me: OK. See you then!
Tal: Bye!
Me: Bye!As soon as I hang up the phone, I started telling my mom about how my first day of school turned out. After that, I ate some of the leftovers of my In-and-Out and went to sleep. I can't wait to see what happens tomorrow.
