A Midsummer Sojourn

Aza...

“It is not necessary to have rainbows after every shower. Because I  make my own rainbows” --Aza

“Aza, if you are done getting lost. Then please answer this question.”
“Aza.Aza.”
I felt someone poking me.
“Huh.Yeah?” I asked.
Ms.Pinioe, my Social Economy teacher stared at me, or was it opening her mouth like a gold fish and closing it again.
“You..you have crossed all your lines. I need to have a talk with your parents.”
Oh!man I am in a deep stinky shit.
“Ma’am, that is quite impossible my dad is going out of Country for some research and mum will be accompanying him.” I gave her my perfect straight smile.
Well that was true but half. Because they are going by evening.

“Well if that is the issue, then meet me after the school gets over. In the detention room with your notebook and stationary. You have to complete four assignments in 2 hrs. Okay!?”
And not even waiting for a reply she went to the front of the class and again started blabbering.
“Oh!man. This is so shitty.” I groaned.
Colia my seat partner gave me a look as if saying- I warned you before, stop getting lost.

I looked at my best friend , Kii, I dont know why exactly, because she must be sleeping already.
But thanks Satan she was looking at me too sucking her pencil.
“Wanna skip class after this?” she mouthed.
“Please..” I mouthed back.

And then I saw Roy. And I know what is going to happen after class.

----Bell Rings---

“Kii..lets go”I grabbed her hand and we went out of the class.
But...
“Aza.Stop.” Roy shouted.
Arrggghh....this guy. Why is he too concerned for me.
“Aza.. we need to.Talk” – Roy
“Not now. We are hungry” – Kii
This is the reason why I stick to a female best friend in my world of male friends. She is my saviour.

“Sorry Kii. But as her best friend you should also concern about her. Look at her getting lost in the class. How will she even pass the mid exams?” – Roy.
“Hmm..I see your concern is right. I will make her understand. You dont worry.” – And Kii gave her perfect man’s heart melting smile. Grabbed my wrist and we went to the cafeteria.
“Aaahh..you are my true  saviour. Kii” – I said while sipping MintFrappe.
Okay so Roy and I have been friends from the first day of my school. But he gets too concerned about me and that pisses me off.

“Hmm.. Aza this guy Roy. He isnt that bad if you see. I mean  how will you pass the mid exams at this rate?” – Kii
I stared at her. Now where the heck is this leading to?
“See you need to study. Kay? Lets sit together and read our books sometimes.” – Kii
“Mmmphh.. okay as long as you dont boss me.” – I pouted.
“Dont worry, you only need to level up in political history and calculus.” – Kii smiled.
“You bitch. You didnt mention Social Economy because you yourself hate that subject.” – I laughed and kicked her.

------ The School Ends -----
I headed to the detention room lost in my own thoughts.
And as it should be, I bumped with Roy.
“Oops..Sorr..’’ – I stopped. Now what will I say to mum, getting detention for the third time in a week.
Think fast...
“Heyy, Roy. Am sorry.’’  I took a breathe. “But can you please do a favour? If mum calls , then please tell her am studying with you. Please.” I hope this guy agrees.
“Cool. As long as you promise me that you Will pay attention in class from the next day.” – Roy.
This guy... “ Yeah.. Promise. I will pay attention.”
“And you wont get into any more trouble.” – Roy.
“ Well its hard. But I will try.I need to go. I am already 10 min late. Bbye.” – I saved myself.
Promise seriously. I am a pro at breaking them. Rules and promises are meant to  be broken. Afterall.

-------Finally the detention ended.---

I switched on my phone
10 texts. – 3 frm mum saying she and dad are going for 3 weeks, to take care for myself and dat Julian will come for the weekends. 2 frm dad mostly saying no house parties. And the rest was frm Kii and Roy which I skipped for the time being.
3 calls – which I guessed will be of the same people.
I plugged in my head phones and started to head home.
When I saw a guy, a brunette.He looked familiar but I couldn’t recall. He was looking at the classes.
A new teacher?? Or a student.
I shrugged and went on my own way.

Next Day ( Calculus Class)

Aaahhhh... this class is so boring. Should I just go out saying am sick.
I was deep in my thoughts planning how to get out. When our home-room teacher walked in.
He talked something with my Calculus teacher.
“Class, we are going to have a new student with us. So please welcome him.”
And walked in that brunette guy.
“Hello. Am Wade Elsides.” He introduced himself.
“Wade...say something more.” – Mr.Queret
“Huh?”
“Well, if thats it. Then you can take that empty seat.” – Mr.Queret.
Well Mr.Queret is not our original home-room teacher he is the assistant one. But our actual home-room teacher is in hospital for the past three months. And I kind of like Mr.Queret. He is kinda cute and moreover he doesn’t iritate me like the other teachers.
“Hey, why did you transfer?” – Tom asked.
“ Because I was f..” “Because his parents went to work in the countryside” . Mr. Queret completed Wade’s sentence.
He went and sat behind Roy.
This guy seems familiar and...
Our Calculus class again resumed.
And I went back where I was, dreaming.
