I open my eyes...
Ah yes, another day... Of school... Today is Friday...

Names Mark, Mark Miracle.

I sat down and rub my eyes...
I look at the curtains beside me and open it a bit, some sunlight got in.

"Argh!" I reacted as I close the curtains again... I don't like sunlight when I first wake up.

"What time is it?.." I asked as I look at my phone and turn it on"6:00AM"

I unlocked the lock screen. Right, I fell asleep while playing a game...
"When did I sleep though?..." I asked myself
I suddenly remember what time I was playing the game...
"4:30... AM..." I sighed...
It's not really surprising, I always sleep late. Well, mostly atleast

I got up, open the lights and look around the floor. There on my floor, I see my school shirt and pants from yesterday, just laying there.
I grab them and wear them.
"They don't seem that messy right?" I spoke to myself

I grabbed my bag and get out of the room. I live in an apartment.
I opened one of the drawers.
There's only a bag of bread...
I took one piece of bread from the bag and closed the drawer.

I then put on my shoes, stand up, leave the apartment and lock the door.

I started running as I eat the piece of bread in my hand. The bread is pretty good if you ask me.
As I ran, I saw some other people with the same uniform as me. I eventually got slower and just walked.
I then reach the gate of my school

I'm a grade 8 student

How well do I pay attention in class?
Bad
How well do I get with others?
Not so well
Does anybody like me?
Nah, nobody...

Let's just say, the school doesn't really like me that much... But my grades are just, average. They're not that high but they're not that low...

I open my locker and look around...
Inside were just some books
And a small container of mint candy
I grabbed the small container of mint candy and opened it
I look at it and put it in my mouth.

I look around me as I close and lock my locker. Nobody was approaching me, nobody is talking to me or looking at me... I don't get along with others well... And, doesn't mind or notice me much... They mostly just, ignore me.
And I'm fine with it
It's better than others bullying and picking on me, right?
The only time they talk to me is during class projects and stuff. But about parties? Hangouts? Anything like that? None.

I sighed as enter the classroom.
Nobody greeted, they just look at me for a short second, turn their heads back and continue whatever they were doing.

I sat down on my chair. The chair beside me is beside the window.

"MARK" the teacher shouted as I snapped back into reality

"Are you paying attention?" The teacher asked

Everyone was looking at me, I can hear some giggling

"E-ehm" is all I could say

I almost fell asleep again... Sigh...
This happens a lot...

"Well, explain what's wrong here?" The teacher asked as she steps a bit back so I could see the board

"Umm..."

"Also, you seem a bit messy..." The teacher said, some students laugh

"Did you sleep late again?" She asked

I just shaked my head, saying no

"Sigh... Well, doesn't seem like you didn't... Go to the bathroom and fix yourself"
