The teacher was teaching and it was all going over my head because I was studying Spanish for the first time and I only knew 'HOLA' means hello. Austin the cocky- narcissistic-hypocrite was thankfully not staring me but he was focused on writing the notes I guess. He was writing continuously as the teacher taught and his desk was shifting at its place which was disturbing me a lot.
"Can't you write a little slow and nicely so that your desk stays stable", I whispered to him with a fake smile.
"No", he whispered flatly.
"What do you mean by no?", I whispered to him irritated.
"No, is a word for giving negative replies", he whispered sarcastically.
"Ms. Hayden right?", the teacher said and I got nervous because she was talking to me. I stood up and said,
"Yes, Ma'am"
"¿Que pasó?", she said and I didn't understand what it meant.
"Uh...umm..-", I stuttered as I was cut short by Austin the fast writer whisper.
"She is asking what happened. You say 'nada'".
I didn't know whether to trust him or not but I said,
"Nada", to the teacher.
"si tienes algun problema entonces dime", she said and I again didn't understand.
"Say bueno", Austin the Spanish expert whispered.
"Bueno", I said to the teacher.
"Okay good to know that you understand Spanish. So there will be a test for you after 2 weeks, which will be Monday, after this week, of all the things before chapter 8.", she said in English and gave me a shock.
How am I supposed to give a Spanish test when I don't even know it's ABCD???
"Okay ma'am", I said and sat down and she continued teaching. I was thinking to take help from someone and by someone, I can see Dylan because he was sitting like in front of me and Ryan wasn't even present in class I don't know why. And Austin the smart guy I didn't like was not even worth considering. I passed a note to Dylan in which I wrote,
'CAN YOU HELP ME WITH SPANISH'
Then he passed me a note which said,
'I SUCK IN SPANISH :-( ' And with that note, my ray of hope was gone. Now I have to study on my own.
And that period got over after a few minutes. And after three hours of more classes which included English, World History, and free time, the school got over.
Austin continued his stares in the English period too which kept me cautious and warm and annoyed.
We were on the way home and surprisingly Noah let Shelley drive the car. So I was sitting beside Shelley and Noah at back texting, of course, his brownie.
"You guys know what, I had a Spanish test after two weeks and I don't know how to study for it because I don't even know basics", I rambled.
And I got no response. Noah was texting and Shelley was busy driving and lip-syncing Lady Gaga's song blasting on the radio.
"I said something", I said again. Still no response. Then I reduced the volume of the song and then shouted,
"Are you guys even listening to me? I am saying that I have-"
