"Just remember Jennie, if you need something, don't hesitate to call me, alright?"
I nodded eagerly and willingly gave a peck in my Mom's cheeks.
She asked me once again if I can invariably go on my own before I even managed to walk away from the car. I just smiled. It was a hearty assurance that I'm undoubtedly going to be fine without her help. I'm not a vulnerable kid no more. I can carry out things on my own now.
"I'm genuinely worried about you. I know how you struggle vainly to make friends that's why I want to accompany you." Mom sighed.
"Don't stress about it, Mom. I'm seriously going to be fine even without gaining friends."
Mom jerked her head. "As you may. Take care, okay?"
I nodded smilingly. "Definitely."
For the last time, I instantly gave Mom my sweetest smile before telling her to drove off. I told her I would wait for her to go, but she insisted to watch me enter the school premises.
I don't want to agree with it because I know for sure that she's going to be late for her work. However, knowing Mom, I know she still pushes it through that's why I just gave in and obliged to do what she told me.
The moment I seamlessly stepped inside the school, I knew right away that my life will change drastically. It's uncertain why I feel like that but my instincts keep on poking my mind that something will happen. If it's going to be a happy or sad moment, I don't know yet.
I spotted many students smiling whiled happily talking to one another. They were presumably classmates before. I'm envious of them. I wish I could gain some friends to impose and talk to. Well, it's impossible for me to have one since I'm a new student here but still, I envy them. Even in New Zealand, I never have a chance to have a single friend. It's not because I'm Asian or absurd. It's, I guess because I don't talk to them that much.
I took a peek in my wristwatch. It's already 7:30 in the morning. It means the class will start sooner. 8:00 is in fact the start of our classes so basically 30 minutes is our remaining time to relax.
By now, I should already be in my classroom, but then; my heart is contemplating whether to go there or just stay here for a while. I don't know, really. It's not that I want to be late, okay? But there was something in me that says I should stay here where I was standing.
It's boring. That's the accurate words to describe what I'm feeling right now. I probably look like a fool standing here alone with no one to talk to. I might salivate here, having no one to talk to.
