PoV Sarah:
I padded to the place indicated by the professor. The boy didn't seem to care about me. We didn't know each other, so it's logical that we didn't talk. Anyway, an almost murder in front of the hospital was never an option to know people, I guess. While speaking of the hospital, what was he doing there? He introduced himself to me and so did I so basically we know each other or...maybe not. After all, I don't think I'm good at talking so I better not start the conversation. I remember one day in middle school, a boy with glasses asked me to go out with him, and hopeless like I am, I told him that if he wanted seriously to have a girlfriend he needed to visit a beautician. It was the most embarrassing moment of my life and god knows how many of them I had. Why did I say this to him? I could've just said no. I don't know, maybe cause I found him more like a hairy rock...When I told this story to my parents, they laughed so hard and then my mother said those words that I didn't understand, and I still don't: -"Oh darling stop being honest with people, they don't deserve it". Anyway, the boy never talked to me again, maybe cause he thought I was a crazy girl who didn't know what to do with her life or maybe, he believed me...I truly don't know. But this experience made me understand something: I was never good at talking to people so I decided to shut up rather than hurting another poor soul...
-"You there! If my lesson doesn't interest both of you you can go out !". I looked at the professor and he was staring at Luke and...me?
-"Mr.Hammer you were late this morning, you don't want problems from the first day of school, do you ?".He yelled.
-"And you miss. Arlyne, don't think I will tolerate you just because you're new !". God, he's so strict but I don't want to get in trouble from the first day.
-"Yes sir !". I said.
-"Mr. Hammer ?!". The professor stared at Luke with a scary Look but, he didn't seem to care.
-"Yeah". I could hear a "Shove it up your ass!" and I chuckled. Suddenly, he turned his head in my direction scanning me with a strange look.
-"Hi". I tried to relax the atmosphere but he continued scanning me without any problem.
-"Do I know you ?". I blinked several times. Is he serious?
-"No, I guess". Like I said, almost a murder was never a way to know people.
-"So don't fuck your energy talking to me. You're not even interesting".
-"WHAAT ?!". I yelled jumping up from my seat and almost forgetting that we were in a class.
-"That's enough now! Both of you get out of here ! And one-hour detention for both of you tomorrow evening for interrupting me two times in a row !".
Oh my god! This is the first time something like this has happened to me and now I'm obliged to see the crazy supervisor again. Me who hoped to never see her again...My hope is lost.
As I was walking slowly down the halls, I heard someone sigh loudly.
-"Move, damn it !". Luke jostled me and walked faster to surpass me. Maybe he feels that it was my fault that he was excluded from the class but he had his part of responsibility too. No one's ever talked to me so aggressively like that before, why is he acting like a jerk?
-"Wait !". I was surprised to see him go in the opposite direction of the administration's office.
-"What again ?". He turned slightly to me staring at me with his green eyes.
-"You're going the wrong way...". He sneered at me.
-"Do you think I'll go see the kooky pickle-faced crone with you? You're too naive". I ignored him and walked right in front of me.
