Amore Cieco

Blind Love

August 1 – First Day of school

* Alarm clock rings *

One of my most hated sound.

It was five o'clock in the morning. I was still dreaming of something beautiful but the sound of the alarm wake me up. The bed was still warm, the cold breeze was putting me to sleep again and the sky's still dark but then I realized that today is not just an ordinary day for an ordinary boy like me.

It is the 1st of August and it means that it is my first day as a senior high school student. I need to kick my ass of the bed because today, today is the start of those days where I am no longer stuck in my house staring at the ceiling, chilling.

I push myself to the bathroom. The water was as cold as ice, it energize my body. I put on my favorite maroon shirt and paired it with a black jeans, my go-to outfit. I fix my hair, not typically my thing but I brush it up and because I feel a little extra I put on my favorite scent too.

* looks in the mirror *

"You got this you man! Show them that killer smile."

*winks*

I don't know why but I feel like there's something special about this day, really special.

SCHOOL

As I was walking down the hallway, I can see many students catching up with one another and most of them are looking excited. But for me, being in this school for about eleven years already, the environment doesn't surprise me anymore so I go straight to the second floor of the senior high school building. I already checked my room assignment last time that's why I already know where to go. That's one tip to save time and if you're an awkward person like me.

I enter the first room on the second floor of our building. I saw some of my old friends so I guess we're on the same class. I sit beside them and have some chit chat. As I was looking around I realize that most of the students inside have unfamiliar faces. There's a lot of transferees in my class but there's this one girl that really caught my attention.

This girl is serving mysterious vibes. She's wearing this oversized gray hoodie and a black skinny jeans. Her hair was down that covers her face, it adds up to my curiosity. "Now who's that mysterious girl?" I said to myself while she's sitting at the corner of the room talking to some of her friends, I guess.

* Bell ringing*

All of the students take their seats.

Miss Chaves: Good morning!

Class: Good morning Miss!

Miss Chaves: Okay, so I'm Miss Victoria Chaves, your English teacher for this semester and I will also be your adviser. I guess that's all that you need to know about me as of now.

She looks intimidating. Her face was angelic but the way she presents herself sound like strict to me.

Miss Chaves: I can see many new faces huh, it would be better to meet new friends, isn't it? So an introduction to one another would be a little exciting.

The class starts making noise because it's one of the first day dilemma of every students, I guess.

Miss Chaves: Silence! Let's start with you, girl at the back.

The girl she's pointing at was the mysterious girl so I made sure that I gave my hundred percent attention to listen to her.

Den: I'm Denise Anne Manalo, 17 years old. I'm fond of reading books and I'm also in to dancing.
