Been to school for about a week now. Nothing unperticullar happened. I guess they've forgotten about last summer, or do they?
I went down for recess today because I left my lunch at home. Oh Ana now you need to go to the canteen. I cursed myself for forgetting it.
"Look who's here. The 'Amazing Ana' is back,"I heard a voice from behind me. That voice. The same annoying voice. I thought she moved last summer. I thought that was the last time I'm gonna see her.
I didn't stop walking. I'm not in the mood of meeting her. Just as I was about to look up, I hit something.
"Ouch! Hey watch where you're going loser," said Tria standing infront of me and all her friends laugh. Tria, she's with Ezra. Both of them are evil.
"What now? Don't you have other things to do Tria?" I look straight into her eyes. I'm so hungry and I'm not going to waste my time with her.
"Wow, seems like you've became braver than last summer. I can still remember your words, 'Stop it! Stop this game! I'm not one of you" she said, mimicking my voice.
"Help me, anyone! Please I'm begging you," one of them continue.
"You were so pathetic," said Tria, laughing and went off. I had nothing to say. I am completely blank. Luckily I'm not one of them. Luckily I failed last summer. Luckily, I'm so lucky. Damn so awful.

As I was lining up, I saw her. I wonder why is she here? She had never go down. I think she left her food or something. Suddenly three girls came close to her. I wonder who are they? What do they want with her?
I watch as one of them, slightly taller than Ana stand infront of her. I was trying to concentrate their conversation but a dude behind me told me to move. Then I remember I was still in line.
After getting my lunch, I sat at the end of the canteen not wanting to sit with anyone. I see Ana taking her food and she's searching for a place to sit.
Should I call her? Does she wants to join me? I think hard. Does she even know me? Then I made up my mind and I called her.
"Ana! Over here," I shouted from far. I can see her eyes squinting towards me. I think she must have wonder who the heck am I. Oh well I'm not some famous schoolboy. She's coming closer and suddenly I feel like there's buterfies in my stomach.
"Thanks," said Ana just as she sits opposite me. I just smile not knowing what to say.
I feel like the time is not moving. She's eating so politely. She's so beautiful. Then I just realize this is my chance to talk to her. 'Start a conversation dummy' a little boy's voice said in my head.
I wanted to say something but the bell rang. 'You lost your luck' the little boy said again. I heard a laughter in my head.
"Um... Goodbye" is all I could say. She smiles back at me and walk away. I had never been so nervous infront of a girl. I stood there seeing her as she walks out of the canteen. First try; failed.
*****
A boy called my name. I wonder who he is. I turned around and spotted him. He looks kind of familiar. Since there's no other place to sit, I just walk to his table. He is alone so I don't mind.
I wanted to ask him how he knows my name but my voice is kind of stuck in my throat. I can see that he's trying to say something but I just can't tell what. Just as he opens his mouth the bell rang. Too bad I suppose. He said goodbye and I just smile.
Then I wonder, if I go to the canteen again,will I sit with him? We'll see.
