After thinking and being anxious for a while, I walk up to him. He had pink lips, blonde hair and blue eyes. He looked extremely cute. He wore a leather jacket and black jeans. His hair standing out and looking wild but again he looked so cute.

"Emm hi" I say nervously

"Hi" He replies looking at me

"Thanks for saving me from Mr. Ben" I say

"No sweat" He says

"OK bye" I say awkwardly

"Bye" He says

That went faster than I thought

But why did he do that. I should probably stop thinking like he said no sweat. I head to my hostel room and I see Vera sitting on her bed, staring at something I guess.

"Hey this is quite early to be here" I say throwing my books on my bed

"Yeah I know" She murmurs

"So what's up?" I ask

"Do you ever wish you can disappear" She asks out of nowhere

"Yeah why??" I ask

"Nothing don't bother about it" she says

"No there's something Vera talk to me" I say

"Bella just let me be, I said there's nothing" She says angrily

Just then Ella walks into the room. Her cheeks flushed red from stress and her eyes looking tired. The perfect bun on her head today looking messy. She must have had a stressful day.

"Hey what's going on" She asks

"Vera is talking like she wants to commit suicide" I say grabbing a bottled water

"What?? Vera what happened??" Ella asks concerned

"Nothing OK nothing you guys should just leave me alone" Vera says

And she jumps onto her bed and covers herself with her blanket, looking like a burrito. I gulp down my water and Ella looks at me. I raise my shoulders in an I don't know impression.

"Wow" I say

"Am sure something happened" Ella says

"Well she won't say" I say

"So let's go, ask her coursemates and friends" Ella says

"No way you guys aren't leaving this room to go and ask any of my coursemates" Vera says jumping off the bed

"Why? You don't want to tell us so we will go explore ourselves" Ella says

"You guys aren't going to embarrass me further" Vera says

We walk to the door and pull the handle, looking at her threatenly. Slowly turning the door knob and opening the door slowly. The sound of the door moving in the air.

"Tell us or we are going" I say

"For reals" Ella adds

"Fine I will tell you just don't go" Vera says pleadingly

"OK am in the mood for a story" Ella says jumping on her bed enthusiastically

I didn't even wanna ask why, i could guess they told them a bed time story in their class and told them to act it or something. That's why even if I hate science, I can never ever go to art.

So it turns out today Vera was embarrassed in class. They told her to show how money was counted and calculated, but because she was so shy and afraid. Her hands were shaking and everything slipped away unto the floor. And she had to pick everything up while people laughed

"Am sorry Vera" I say

"No need to be,you weren't the reason why that happened" Vera says fake smiling

"But I also kinda had a bad day, they asked me to act a scene and I froze" Ella says

"What??" I ask

"Yeah but I just left the class" Ella says

"Mine was also bad, I wasn't listening and I was asked a question" I say remembering today

"That's the worst" Vera says

"Yep am sure that teacher has me in his black book" I say jokingly

"So Vera don't think about it we all have bad days but we got to throw them away and move forward" Ella says

"Thanks guys" Vera says smiling

"You are welcome" I say

"Am hungry who thinks we should go get something" Ella says rubbing her stomach

"Why still ask. To the cafeteria" Vera shouts

We laugh and run like we are flying aircrafts to the cafetaria. A lot of weird glances are shot at us as we ran. Our hair scattering and our chatters echoing in the hallway.

We all have bad days but we have to handle it. So tell me what your bad day was??
