I was a student with secrets. A voice that couldn't be heard. I wouldn't dare speak up. Why? Because I'm scared to do so. Until he came into class in suit and tie and proved to me that everyone deserves love and kindness. He was my escape, and he be...
I adjusted the straps of my backpack as I was walking to school and looked over at my best friend.
"So you heard about Mr. Woo right?"
Pause--
My name is Rose Carter, and I'm 19. Yeah, I go to the best college in all of America. I worked hard to get accepted. Let me start by saying that my best friend is Park Jimin. He's an exchange student. Well, he was when he was in kindergarten. That's how we met. That's how I met the rest of his friends. Boy knew no English whatsoever, so; I helped him learn. He's been my best friend since the beginning of time. Well, at the beginning of our time. Anyways, let's continue.
Resume--
"Yeah I did. Got fired, right?"
Jimin shook his head and chuckled
"They didn't make it discrete at all. Everyone knew about it. It was only a matter of time until the board of education found out."
I shook my head in disappointment
"Imagine what his wife and kid thought about it. I heard their son was only 15."
Jimin and I shook our heads.
"What a shame."
He nodded, agreeing with me. He looked at my outfit and cringed a bit
"What's up with that turtle neck?"
I looked down and everything from last night came flooding back in my mind.
"Oh, nothing. It's cute."
"It's 75 degrees this morning."
I looked at him and shrugged my shoulders
"I like it.'
He looked away and nodded. It got quiet for a moment as we crossed the street onto the school campus.
"So"
I looked at him, confused just before moving aside from the little lower in front of me.
"So what?"
"So, how are you and Max?"
I raised my eyebrows and lowered them, trying to think of what to say and how to say it until I looked up to speak. I saw Max.
His dark brown, almost black curly locks on his head bouncing as he walked towards us. His almost green eyes blended well with his entire outfit. He wore a basic white tee and a black hoodie over it. He wore black jeans that had one long slit in the knees only. So basic, but killer.
Pause~
I have no idea who this is but imagine him as Max.
