Addisyn's POV

I walked into my first and only class of the first day back from winter break.

some of my friends from last semester either dropped out because of stress or transferred to an easier low-stress university.

even though my mom wanted me to stay home this semester and do my classes from online to help out with my younger siblings

I thought it'd be best for me to finish my second year out on campus being able to focus and talk to my professors.

it smelt like cleaning products and bleach as if they had just cleaned it assuming they did over the long break, with flu season and wanting to prevent germs spreading.

half the class was already talking among themselves when I came and sat down in one of the fold-down seats toward the end of the row in the back.

new semester new classes.

which also meant new people.

I saw a couple of familiar faces in the room of peers from classes last semester but mainly new college students that were completing courses for their pre-med.

then students like myself that were required to take a medical coarse so I picked what looked easiest, basic anatomy.

"okay, welcome back students!!" my professor shouted as all the talking students directed their attention toward him.

I knew some of what to expect because I had him, an older shorter sweet man as a chemistry instructor last semester.

I took out my planner and notebook beginning to write down the daily writing prompt.

he began speaking about himself for a moment introducing himself to new students.

for a moment he paused.

a large creek and door slam interrupted his next words.

a young girl, who looked maybe a little older than me, flipped her dark mixed colored hair out of her face and watched her step as she quickly looked around at the students sitting as they stared back.

just by the vibe, I caught of her walking in she seemed like she had committed a couple of petty crimes and been involved in some shit

only her record would show, cause god knows she wouldn't dare flaunt or be proud of,

that is to the pretentious students at UCLA that categorize people like her.

it was clear she was a troubled kid, an outlaw of sorts that was attending the school, not by choice.

she found a seat sitting right next to me.

the professor glared at her as she sat down respectfully quick and reached for her bag to grab materials.

as she sat down and slouched in her chair nervously looking around at what was expected of her she gleamed over me.

taking a few looks at me and finally looked back smiling and asking if she needed anything, just being polite as she looked very flustered.

"yeah do have a pencil I can use?" she quietly asked.

I nodded my head giving her a pencil insisting she could keep it as she seemed as though she needed it.

"Enough about me, today students! we are going to be going over the syllabus, I know not everybody's favorites but I'll be explaining the main points and then I'll give you some time to read on your own and we'll move on" I listened to my professor explain today's plans and start the syllabus.
