"you are all welcome to this new semester last year was a great academic year for us all but I hope this year will be alot better,there have been a lot of changes during the break which includes new lecturers and new schedules and also we have decided to open our portal to students outside, that is as from this semester we will be having exchange students from other countries as you should know this is a big step for this institution and to close off this speech let me introduce you all to our first and new exchange student from US California, please join me in welcoming "Miss Kelsey Mitchel"

The round of applause I am given reminds me of a lot but I don't want to think about it right now the chancellor looks really nice but the serious type but really did she have to welcome me so publicly, this is something I am trying to avoid I really don't want or need any public attention I close my eyes in a way and use my long brunette hair to cover my face
"Welcome miss Mitchel"

I am drawn out of my thoughts by the chancellor "Mrs bridgewit" I know right what a strange name

"Thank you ma" honestly I want to get this over with fast, everyone's staring at me!

"I hope you enjoy your stay here Miss Mitchel, you will be given a tour around the school by some of our students here".  Like seriously is this a high school or a college! Well I guess cause its private am surprised to see they are not wearing uniforms, well thank God for that.  

" Be free to ask  questions if u have any."                          

" With all this said, everyone please return to your schedules now let the lessons begin with immediate effect!!!"

Hmm looking forward to today I wanna see how all this works out there is really a lot on my schedule talk about an art school. I guess its because am joining them this late I have to meet up if I wanna have a very good G.P.

Uhmmm so everyone has returned to their business, well everyone but me and this short girl with blonde hair but pretty, I must say but she looks like a clumsy and confused girl she extends her hand for a handshake but am in no mood for that.

" Hi am Carla"

"OK so how is your name fucking useful to me"
She looks hurt by my words and rejection but shakes it off quickly

" Well am one of the student assigned to give you a tour I guess we will meet the others later and also the people who are going to be assigned to you will be your partners for our first assignment this semester I really don't know what it is yet so........ 

" Well that's fine". Suddenly I feel bad for my rude response that was totally uncalled for. Let me see if I can change that a bit.
"Am Kelsey Mitchel and thanks?"
I say it more as a question

" I know your name dummy you're welcome dear I see you are not really happy but I assure you, you will love this school but depends on where you stand" 

She sounds really friendly but am not here to make any friends but I will try to not be harsh on her after all it isn't her fault am in this condition.

"well ok can we move along"

I ask her because am tired of being here already she seems really confused like she is thinking if she could assist me moving my wheelchair or letting me do it myself I guess she doesn't want to make me feel bad and she is s really trying her best not to ask me what happened to me hopefully she won't ask.
"Yeah so let's get going then"

"there's no need I can move myself, thanks" I say trying my best not to sound rude.

" You are really pretty Kels, wait uhmm can I call you Kels?
