As I walk the halls of school, people give me weird looks. I didn't have friends to gossip to, or to walk to class with. I didn't have a best friend that I can go to when I needed a shoulder. I don't even have a sister to argue over dolls with. I was lonely.
I am an only child and I have always wished for a little sister or brother that I can play with. But my mom died when I was born so I guess that's not possible. So for my birthday I had begged my daddy for a dog that I could play with.
The morning of my 7th birthday, I woke up and discovered a little puppy in the garage. It was love at first sight. It's brownish blondish fur and dark brown eyes and floppy ears made it hard not to love her. I named her Daisy, after my mom.
Everyday I would get up eat breakfast with her and then play for hours. But when school started I would dread going to school. I didn't want to leave Daisy alone. When I came home she would always be waiting for me at the front door. I would play with her until bedtime. I never grew old of her.
Back to the present day, I walked in my class room like usual and sat down in one of the seats near the back. I didn't have a seat buddy so I always put my stuff on the desk next to me. I layed my head on the desk trying to get a few shut eye.
Just as I was dozing off, my teacher walked in. Someone walked in after her. I had never seen him. Must be he is the new kid everyone is talking about. I didnt really follow the gossip.
"Class, we have a new student. Please, introduce yourself," she said. "Hi, my name is Felix. Please take care of me. Thank you." He said with a very strong Australian accent. I was kinda cute, I had to admit.
He had the cutest freckles ever. He had reddish brown hair and brown eyes and they kinda looked like Daisy's eyes. The kind that looked so innocent and you could get lost in.
I didn't realize that I was staring at him until he walked over to me and said, "Can I sit here." I quickly snapped out of it and managed to say, "Y-yeah." I grabbed my books off the desk so he could sit.
All through that class I kept sneaking glances at him. Sometimes he would catch me and he would just smile my way. Like usual, I didn't pay any attention to what the teacher was saying. I doodled a flower in my notebook. I didn't realize I had drawen a sunflower, my moms favorite. The thought of her brought tears to my eyes. I put my head down before anyone noticed.
Finally lunch rolled around. I usually eat by myself cause I don't like sitting with people. I dug in my lunch bag to see what my dad had packed for me. Yes! He packed my favorite! A ham sandwich, Cheetos, a chocolate bar and chocolate chip cookies.
I was enjoying my food when someone asked, "Can I sit here?"
I looked up and saw Felix standing there with his tray. "Y-yeah, sure," I stuttered again. Jeez what's with me not being able to talk today. "What's your name?" he asked as he took a bite of his food.
"Um, Hana." I wasn't really good with strangers.
" I saw in class what a good drawer you are. You can make something so plain into something breathtaking." He commented. My checks flushed red, I moved my hair so he couldn't see my face. "Thanks," I mumbled. The only person who had ever told me I was a good drawer was my dad.
Turns out, Felix and I liked the same things. Dogs, food, music, sleep, and more food and more sleep. He also has a dog. He moved from Australia because his dad got a new job here in Korea. He left all his friends. He told me a lot about them.
It was so easy to open up to Felix and talk. Usually I try to stay away from people I don't know. His voice was also very soothing. I wonder how his singing voice was. Probably very low and - "HANNA, EARTH TO HANNA." Felix said waving his hand in my face. I quickly snapped out of it.
There was something else. He didn't really like the topic of parents. When I talked about my dad, he just stayed quiet and didn't say anything. It made me wonder.
The rest of the day dragged on and on. I slept during some of my classes cause why not? Finally I came home and dove into my bed. This was the first day that I had a real conversation with anyone in this school other then the teachers. I felt good to talk to someone other then dad and my dog.
