I woke up feeling the sun's heat on my face! "Urghhhh" I stretched out and tried to open my aching eyes. I slept tight but my body is feeling tired still. I get up and went to the kitchen to take my breakfast and will soon prepare for school. I am still feeling so sad. While I am eating cereal, I saw my phone on the table. I decided to play some happy music, but when I opened it, I have 21 text messages and 11 calls from AJ. "Oh, God!" Were the only words I said after realizing that we were supposed to meet before school.
Hey!
Good morning Kim!
Hi! How are you?
Are you ok? I am worrying.
Hey hey!
Are you still asleep?
Kim?
Kimny?
Maybe you are still asleep?I am reading his messages then my phone ring.
"Hello, good morning Kim. Thank God, you finally answered."
"AJJJJJJ!!!!??" I shouted feeling so sorry."
Oh? Are you ok?
"Yes, I am."
"Hahaha, how are you?"
"I just woke up. I really am sorry."
"No worries! Just knowing you are fine is great."
"Thank you, AJ."
"Always welcome. So we will just see each other at the school?"
"Yes in school canteen during break time.'
"Ok! You better be preparing now and wear thicker clothes for it is so cold out due to bad weather."
"Oh ok! Thank for informing. See you!"
"See ya! Byeee"
"Bye"
I prepared myself for school. Compared yesterday, it's really a bit colder today so I decided to wear my favorite reversible hoodie. I will be attending 2 classes. My favorites, Advance Math and English. But what makes me feel excited is seeing AJ personally for the first time. I am imagining how will I react. Will I become speechless or anything? I shook my head for me to stop from too much thinking. "Will he like my look? Ahhhh Kimny why are you so nervous?" I questioned myself. "Just act natural ok? Ok!" I breathe deeply as I convince myself.
I secured everything and went to school. It's a regret for me wearing a thinner shirt inside. AJ was right. It is really cold out here.
I entered the room and everybody was looking at me.
"Oh, I think he got so scared!"
"Yeah, he looks so pitiful."
"Hope he slept well."
"So it is really true that he had been bullied yesterday and nothing to do about it?"
'Yes, and look at how puffy his eyes are!"Everyone is talking about me again. But it's funny that they are thinking I get these puffy eyes from being bullied. I just smirked at them coz it's not even a big deal for me. I walk along the aisle to the back row for obviously no one is wanting me to sit beside them."Psssst" She looked at me with her eyes telling to sit right beside her. I smiled and put my things down. "Thank you." I said.
"Good morning class! I am Ms. Johanna and it's nice to see ya all!"
"She is very well known as terror." My seatmate says in a soft voice.
"Well, she doesn't look like one." I said with a little smile on my face. She's really beautiful and looks organized.
Then I hear the whole class talking.
"They say she always give examination at the very first meeting with her students, right?
"Yeah, and once you are done, she can allow you to go so you can prepare for the next class or you can have some time for yourself."
