The One That Got Away

CHAPTER 2

BETH'S POV:
I heard a loud knock on my door and gosh it's still 6:00 AM in the morning. Mom was yelling and telling me to open the door and get off the bed right now because i have class today and shit *yawn* i nearly forgot that today's my first class. I ran directly to the bathroom without fixing my bed and took a shower. Mom was calling me again and i told her to wait for a minute because I'm not yet done changing clothes and for today, I'm wearing a jeans with a guess white shirt on the top,a pair of shoes and a black jacket and I tied my hair into a bun. I hurriedly went downstairs and ate my breakfast with mom and dad and after eating,the bus arrived. I went inside the bus and when i was finding a vacant seat, i was so shocked at the same time,really shy and i can't look at them directly because they were tons of guys at the front and also at the back so i sat in the middle near the window. After a couple of minutes,there was a girl entered inside the bus and i looked directly at her. I dont know her name but she's pretty. She sat beside me because there's no more available seats so she has no choice. She asked my name then i said "I'm Beth"and I also asked her name *with a lil bit shy* and her name was Mallie and she was a year ahead of me.I also told her that it was nice meeting her.I hope I will meet her again.I want to be her friend.

  When we arrived at school,i quickly ran and get off the bus and when I was in the middle of the hallway,i bumped into someone and I fell. She shouted at me telling me to stop being so dumb and clumsy,she even called me idiot.
I told her "I'm sorry" then i  cried,not for being her rudeness but for being who she was.I know it was Mallie.I couldn't talk to her,i was so shy yet scared so i just bowed my head down.She went and looked at me saying she's sorry and she didn't knew that it was me.Mallie helped me and we both head directly to the admin's office. It took us 10 mns to go there.We already got our schedule and i'm so relieved that we're classmates. We're about to go, but Mallie asked me an obvious question.We both are on the same room and same schedule so it's obvious that we're classmates.I just laughed at her and said " Precisely" i said.
Mallie and I were standing at the front door,room 8-A.Mallie knock and opened the door."good morning maam" Mallie said.
"good morning too and please introduce yourselves" the teacher replied. She held my hand and dragged me in and we both went inside the classroom,and all our classmates were staring coldly with a blank expression along with their faces.Mallie said hi and introduced herself first while i was standing next to her with shaking hands and looked  so pale.
"It will be okay Beth"Mallie told me and i felt so relieved .
"Hello.I'm Beth Clovers,14 years old and I also lived in Bali.Have a good day everyone." Afterwards,I  walked awkwardly and we both sat down at the front row.Also,Ms.Robinson introduce herself as our advisor and giving us some papers.She said we'll have to choose our clubs that we love and suits us well.
"in what club are you in Beth?"Mallie asked me and i replied "Arts Club what about you?"
"ohh,i choose the SciMath Club" said she and I bet she's really good at math and science.

After I signed up in the Arts Club,Mallie called and asked me if I can go with her to the canteen and have lunch with her and i agreed. We ate lunch together and we decided to have some fresh and talked. She asked me if I was okay and tell her I wasn't, I've never been.I've always wanted to let out but i dont have any friends to share with.I told her everything,i told her what happened to me back when I was 10 that i was a victim of bully,nobody wants to talk either come near me not unless they need something from me.I wasn't a good student neither bad,i wasn't born from a rich family,i'm just a normal teen keeping her life busy with studies.I honestly been feeling down a lot. My tears were falling down on my cheeks and Mallie saw it.Mallie hugged me and i felt so relieved.I never expected Mallie to listen to me.I thought she would judge me or tells me your so dramatic or whatever.We've just met yet I told her my past and i dont even know why i did. Mallie's  sweet and really great to talk to.
