"Hey Kat!"

I was surprised by that voice. I am staring blankly ahead, still thinking of what had happened. I turned to see who it was. It was Vanessa.

"Hey, are you ready? Are you okay now?" she asked, trying to console me.

"Oh? Yes, of course I am" trying to fake a smile. We started to walk and she's beside me.

"Well, that's great! First day of classes, we're in high school! We're gonna start over fresh and new. We should be happy, right?" said Vanessa, full of energy and good vibes.

"You're so... energetic! Give me some of that! What did you take? Are you drunk? Are you high?" I jokingly said, removing all the bad auras I have. Laughter spreads all over us.

"What? No I'm not! I'm just happy and excited to meet new friends, cute guys. It's all about the new beginning you know. Throw away the not-so-good past behind and start brand new and fresh!"

"That's good for a fresh start Van. Fresh start for freshies and fresh new looks. When did you get curls?". She stopped and turned to me.

"You didn't remember? This was last week. Anna and I went to your house to invite you to have make over. But you were busy locking yourself in your room."

I frowned. I wasn't updated of all the happenings. Van and Anna got new looks. Me? Still the same. I just stayed at my bed, put on my earphones. That's all I did the whole summer. We continued to walk.

"Oh, I'm sorry. Don't worry you can still  make up for it some other time." Van smiled, having evil plans I think.

"Where's Anna? We're not going to be late for our first day, first class. Ugh!".

We stopped by a tree, waiting for Anna. Van is walking crazy looking for her that she goes here and there. It makes me dizzy.

Then I saw this guy, I think new guy, and he is walking our way. He looks lost, cute and hot. He's busy sorting papers and he's gonna bump into Van. I called out to Van to warn her.

"Van watch out!". My warning came too late when I saw Van on the floor.

"Ouch! Can you just look where you're going to?!" She's lying on the floor, cleaning herself up.

Van looks like a dragon when she's mad, almost. It may look like she had terrified the guy.

"Oh, I'm sorry. I really am. I just can't find the dean's office. Can you tell me where it is?". He held out his hand to help Van.

He's not only hot but he also has good voice, wide shoulder and nice arms. Blue eyes, red lips, oh what a hottie. Wearing a blue checkered polo shirt and jeans, I can kiss this guy!

"Kat! Hey Kat!"

He's talking to me alright and I am staring straight at him. How embarassing! Then I came to my senses.

"Oh, what is it? The dean's office is right there." Me pointing at the wrong direction.

"Kat, what's the point? He's gone."

"Oh, where did he run to? I'm sorry. It's just, uhm...."

"I already told him where the dean's office and we should go to our class coz I can see Anna coming and we can't be late.

"Okay okay. Oh gosh, did I look okay? Was he looking at me?" I am so embarassed.

"Kat, kat, you're okay. You look good. But what were you doing? You're checking up on him?!"

I smiled and blush.

"Yes, you're checking up on him. He's cute. Maybe he's in our class. Oh my gosh Kat, you'll have a new boyfriend." She teasingly said.

Van is really good on thinking ahead. She's pretty. Blonde, blue eyes, pinkish lips, now curl, slim and tall. She's a bit taller than me. She's good looking but crazy at times. Sometimes annoying and always loud. She's one of my bestfriends. She's my bff that always pushes me into something. She just wants me to be happy.

"New boyfriend?! Not now Van. Yeah, he's hot but I still can't have a boyfriend."

Mike and I just broke up. The reason why I locked myself in my room the whole summer. I loved him, but things got rough, we just broke up because of misunderstandings, with S.

"Why? The 3 months rule? No, there's no such thing in our generation. Come on Kat. I only said he's cute but you said hot. You're into him. What if he's into you too? Didn't you see how he looked at you?"

Van's pushing me again, but no. Not yet. I'm still not ready to fall in love again. But I got curious.

"Wait, he looked at me?" I was shocked.

"Yes he did and not just looked, he stared. I think he likes you."

"I'm just not ready now. Maybe in time." I said with a low voice.

"Kat,  you're pretty, really pretty. And I think every guy will like you. You're pretty, nice and smart. Long straight black hair, brown eyes, red lips. You're tall and sexy. What's not to like about you? You're perfect! So give yourself a break Kat."

Yeah. I think I believe what Van said. That's what they all say. Pretty and nice and smart.

"Yeah, right. But not now Van."

I saw Anna coming our way, looking frightened.

"Hey Anna, I missed you." Sharing hugs and kisses with my other bestfriend. She's kinda freaked out and I wonder why.

"Hey Anna, what happened? Are you ok?" Van is worried.

"Something happened. And I can't believe it. Can we just talk about it later?" Anna is avoiding the question. Means it's private, and it is not good.
