Sweet

10 minutes past by and I never said a single word to the new girl that sat beside me.

Everyone was talking to each other and we sat awkwardly.

I wanted to talk, I really did but I couldn't bring myself too.

So instead, I pull out a sticky note and begin to write down what I wanted to say.

'Hi. My name is Isabella, Issy for short... I'm quite nervous to talk first so I'm sorry if this is awkward.'

Taking a deep breath, I slid the note over to the new girl as I purposely clear my throat.

It grabbed her attention and she glanced at me before taking the sticky note.

I could see her smile in the corner of my eyes as she turns around to me.

"Hi... I'm Candace."

Her voice was sweet and smooth, just like honey.

I returned back the smile as I whisper a small "Hi."

"I was kinda worried that I made you uncomfortable or something." She chuckled as she rubbed her lap.

It was obvious that she was nervous. I don't blame her really.

"Oh no! Not at all... It's just that..." I slowly began to chew on my bottom lip as I tried speaking but I struggled, I wasn't used to socialising.

"I understand." She nods her head. "I hope I can change that and that we'll be good friends."

Weird. I've never met anyone as sweet as her.

I smiled back and class soon started.
