New Student
"Bro, you coming with us tomorrow?" Jay asked me as I put my book inside my locker. "You know that it'll be fun." He added and I sighed.
Tomorrow is Saturday and I have something to do. I already have the target. My friends were planning to go to the beach and hangout since the final exams are already done. The school actually has a 1 week break policy that should always be applied after the final exams are done. I was hoping that my friends would reschedule it but sadly, they didn't. But, I will make them reschedule it.
"Jay, I'm really sorry. I am just not free tomorrow. Even on Sunday. You guys already know that." I told him and I noticed how his face expression change and now, I feel bad. "You guys just go to the beach without me. But I'm telling you, if I'll finish early tomorrow, I will go even if I'm late. I'm not promising, okay?"
"Okay. That's much better than saying, "I can't go," though. But, yeah. I'll keep that in mind. I'll tell the others too." He said and he smiled at me and I smiled at him too then we proceeded to walk to eat lunch at the cafeteria. I was relieved when I saw him smile.
Among the others, I'm more close to Jay considering the fact that he was the first person who approached me without feeling scared and threatened at all. I wasn't expecting that he would approach me. My first impression of him was that he's brave and after that, we became even more close.
"Wait, how's your little sister? Is she finally okay?" Elliot asked me. We are now sitting in our usual spot. We got our food and went outside to each our lunch.
I looked at him and said, "She hasn't fully recovered yet but she's okay. Thanks for asking."
"Damn, bro. I wasn't really expecting that it would happen to her! To be honest with you, I couldn't even sleep well every night! I care about your little sister so much because she's like a little sister to me too!" He said and Jay, Henderson and Danica agreed.
"I wish we could visit her someday." Danica said.
"You guys can visit her tomorrow and maybe reschedule the outing on Monday so that Melilla can join us." I said as I looked down at my food. "Or, if you don't want to, then it's okay. We can all go to the beach in this 1 week break." I added.
"Since I'm the one planned this, I'm rescheduling it. I also want to hangout with Melilla so, it's right and I have to reschedule it. We're going to the beach on Monday. Same time and we'll all meet at Luke's place." Danica said.
She looked around us as if looking for Luke but Luke is nowhere to be found. "Where is Luke?"
"I don't know. Maybe f*****g up some girl under the stairs." Jay said and I just laughed at him.
"Jay, what the heck?! You're so gross! You didn't have to say that though!" Danica shouted and Jay and I just laughed at her. "Stop laughing at me!" She said and continued to eat her food.
"No, Jay's wrong." Elliot said.
"What? Where's he then?" Danica asked.
"I asked one of his classmates if Luke was present, she said yes but he went out with a girl. I asked who that girl was and she said that it was a new student and the teacher asked him to show her around." Elliot explained and I got curious.
"This school still accept a new student? I thought that they stopped." I said and I chugged down the water.
"There's something about her that made the school accept her. Maybe her family is a sponsor of this school? That's what I heard but I don't know her family name. They said it's confidential. Some students only know her name. That some students are her first class classmates and Luke is one of them. I'm curious about who that girl was." Elliot said.
"I wanna meet that girl and be friends with her. I bet that girl is a "rich-rich"." Danice said and we all laughed.
"She could be because the school accepted her when we all know that the principal announced that they'll never accept new students." Jay said and when I looked behind him I saw Luke walking towards us.
"Luke's here." I said.
"He must've felt that we were talking about him." Danica said while laughing and we just waited for him to come in our table.
