He's not so cool

687 Words
The class door opens and Ms Cassandra, comes in with two new students joining my class. ... Oh I forgot to introduce myself, my bad! I'm Kim Da Rin, a korean in year 10, class president and I'm 16 years of age, you'll get to know more about me when we go deep into my story. ... Then Ms Cassandra turns to us as we orderly turned to our seats. The air in the room was filled with excitement, especially by girls, because one of the new students was a very cute guy, I won't deny, but it still wasn't worth the reactions by everyone. So she spoke to us when we sat down, saying, " These new students are joining your class from today, and I want us to be nice and helpful to them," she looked at my direction telling me to let them introduce themselves and have their seats afterwards, and with that, she left. I made my way to the front of the class and did as I was told starting with the girl. " I am Anika, from Kolkata in India," she said with so much attitude which made me judge her already. Then our so called handsome hot new guy introduced himself, feeling cool, " I'm Xavier Smith, from New Zealand." Not to judge but I didn't find him cool or anything. I took the attendance, we had all our classes before break, and soon enough it was time for our break. ... Just on my way to my locker to drop my note and tablet, I bumped into a guy whom I had never met, he picked up my things after they fell, and gave them to me. He pulled out for a handshake and said " I'm very sorry. I'm Zenith," then I replied him declining his handshake, " I'm Da Rin." He now asked me to go to the cafeteria with him, but before I could refuse, he held my hand slightly and started strolling towards the cafeteria with me. I pulled my hand away from his, but I just followed him to the cafeteria since I needed to get lunch. ... We got to the lunch table and he offered to pay for my food, I didn't agree at first but I turned and saw Xavier staring at our table, so I agreed, thinking he was staring at me ... It wasn't just Xavier on his table, but Freddy who has been crushing on me for ages was talking with him, like how did they become friends, I don't care. I and Zenith were having an awkward moment of being silent all through our meal, thankfully my best friend, K.C, came over. I felt relieved that someone was there to rescue me from this moment. ... "Is she always like that?, not even a smile", Xavier asked Freddy. "Nope she smiles a lot, unless she isn't comfortable with something or someone," Freddy said hypothetically. Then Xavier asked him, "Did you really waste your time studying her?, you're so unbelievable." "Do you like her?, because you've been staring at her for 4 minutes now" Freddy returned his question with a question. Xavier looked at him with a soured expression, "Ew, I'm just wondering why my brother is around her." "Whoa, that's your brother, I saw some resemblance but couldn't put it together..." "You sure talk a lot, get a girlfriend" Xavier replied him with a smirk as he turned to see I and Zenith leaving together. ... I still couldn't find a reason for hating Xavier or finding fault in everything he does. Well, I and Zenith started getting close and hanging out at the cafeteria often. It always seemed like Xavier was a rival to me, so I always took it out on him and everything he found interest in, especially when he joined the basketball team. My major reason was that I didn't find him cool or attractive, but others did which was annoyingly not a problem for me as long as we didn't have anything to do with each other in class or anywhere else.
