Running in the forest, I couldn't escape.
"Where am I? And what the hell is that place?" I didn't know but I knew I was in danger. Suddenly a loud sound surprised me.
"This sounds like an....alarm?"
I woke up and turn off my phone.
*Sigh* "Stupid nightmare, stupid phone...ugh today is gonna be a bad one"
I get out of my bed and dress up before having breakfast, in silence, just trying to smile for my mom and dad.
"I'll be home at 7 tonight, have a nice day, see ya"
On my way to university I wasn't paying attention to people, I was tired of them and listening to my playlist was way more interesting. Eyes closed, head in the clouds, that was the only moment I didn't feel the pressure on my shoulders. This was my first day at this university, I choose to study about mathematics. You're thinking "why ?", I know it's hard but I love it, when I play with numbers, my head is completely focused on it. I don't overthink, I'm just doing this exercise.
I was already in front of the university, I wished the train to be late but no haha. I observed people talking in groups and I was thinking about trying to talk to them....ugh no way my goal this year is TO STAY ALONE (because alone no one can betray you). Being on my own was okay for me, I had music, mathematics and Malik (my little book where I use to write what's in my mind). Don't think I never had friends, I did but they were only fake ones, when I needed them the most they disappeared as fast as they came in first place. The one that still hurt me is Florina. She was my first real friend, we couldn't be separated u trusted rumors about me. After that she betrayed me and started to be like the others : cruel.
After half an hour we were in the the class, I was close to the windows, alone. Alone for 2 minutes because one girl decided to come and sit next to me, she smiled to me and I just ignored her. The teacher, an old but good looking man, start talking about how the year is going to be, about the teachers, the classes, the exams (oh crap...) and at last but not at least (hahaha) the campus life, which means SOCIALIZATION. After an hour Mr Williams told us to introduce ourselves to the class one by one. My name is in the beginning of the alphabet but not enough to be the first of the list.
"Cabeli Alexia will be the first ! Where are you miss Alexia ? " Said the teacher while looking at the class.
*Sigh* crap, crap, crap how is that possible !!!
"_Hum I'm here" I said
"Nice now please stand up and introduce yourself"
Everyone was looking at me. Don't panic, don't panic Alex it's going to be okay.
"_I-I'm Alexia Cabeli, I'm 19 and living in this city. I like listening to music and...(hell no I'm not going to say I like maths) that's it."
"_Hum okay, well, short but clear. Welcome to this university miss Alexia. Next is [...]"
I stopped listening to him at this moment because I didn't care about the others, I wasn't going to talk to them anyway. I started thinking while watching through the window. Just a few hours before going into my room, I'll be okay. I thought about last night, it was quite nice, I enjoyed the sunset on the beach with a cocktail and then...a nice group of girls came and we had a pretty good time. Umm what I'm going to do tonight ? Should I step into the room again or leave it ? This keeps turning around in my head and I was slowly stepping forward into it. Until the bell rings.
"End of today's class ! This afternoon you'll meet your math teacher. Have a nice meal ! And don't get lost the cafeteria is upstairs on your left !" yelled the man.
Argh...eating time. Not that I don't like to eat, I absolutely LOVE it, but here it implies being around so many people and the menu doesn't seem really good. I use to cook a lot and I'm an addict to tasty spicy meals. I went to the cafeteria, took my tray and look around this huge room full of people until I found a table where nobody was sitting. Yes ! Whatta chance ! I sat and ate slowly, looking at the group in front of me. I smiled because I knew each and every of them, not by their names, just because they were so fake. I already knew who is going to hang out with whom, who was the weakest one (I knew well this one haha), the Alfa aka the leader that everyone watch like a God and the most interesting one, the one you don't know about. This one is a complicated one, it's like playing chess with an idiot child, you can't tell which move he's about to make. She was pretty but not too much, she tried to stay neutral and just follow the others, she was observing and trying to learn the more she can about the group, so she can play the role she want. *Smirk* You little bitch.
After an hour in the cafeteria I finally got out and walk in this big university, trying to memorize the rooms of my classes. I had my earphones on so no one was about to ask me about anything. Finally I went in front of the room 0214 which was where the math class should be in a few minutes.
An elegant woman came and opened the door, I was totally shook. She wasn't just pretty, she looked so clever and nice. I admit I was impressed. She invited the class to come and sit. I look into the room and argh no windows. Shit. I choose a sit near her desk. Mathematics was my passion so yes I sat there (also because she was my new fav teacher hehe).
"Hello I'm your new maths teacher Ms Tailor and of course you ALL love maths so you're going to love me and do some good work !" she said.
Sarcastic, I like her even more.
"_I hope you'll have the books soon enough so we can really start to work. But for this week I'm just going to evaluate your level."
Silence. People were freaking out because she had a psychopath expression at this moment like " ummmmm who's gonna be my first victim". I was ready so I wasn't anxious at all.
She looked at the students one by one and then start to call out. She said she will try to memorize all our names faster as we needed to remember the definitions of her classes.
She spent the past two hours explaining the program and showed us her website where we can find some exercises and links to some good YouTube videos.
5pm time to go home. I feel so good right now, I passed the first day well. While going home I was, again, the head in the clouds, thinking about my lovely but dangerous favourite place. It's so weird to love somewhere so much that you want to be there anytime. The same place that can destroy you. Anyway I was home, going straight to my room, ready to see what will happen.
