I Will Come To You

Making a new Friend

Moving to a new place can be quite challenging, although I love the challenges that comes with it.

Like going to a new school, making new friends, living in a new house, having new neighbors and so on. And speaking of new school, it's the first day of school today and I'm late because my sister is putting on makeup, sometimes I just want to rip her eyes out but I won't because I'm too nice.

'STELLA!!! GET YOUR ASS DOWN HERE, WE ARE RUNNING LATE AND IT'S THE FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL'. I yelled from downstairs, trying to hasten her up but Stella being Stella didn't even answer me.

'I'M LEAVING WITHOUT YOU'. I yelled again, I don't even know why my parents want us to go together, it's not like we're in the same class or something.

As I was about opening the front door, ready to take my leave I heard her rush down the stairs grumbling God knows what. She's the one that's delaying and yet look who's grumbling, what a baby.

'Why are you in hurry? I couldn't even do my makeup well because of you. Ugh! you're so annoying'. She said while working past me, I rolled my eyes at her although she couldn't see me I did it anyways and walked out after her.

I locked the door cause safety first, we're taking the bus today because Stella's car hasn't arrived yet. She got it for her 18th birthday last year, she's 19 now.

We hurried to the bus station before we missed the last bus, it is just a 10 minutes walk from the house, we got on the bus when it arrived and for the first time I was nervous.

I love going to new places and trying out new things but I've never done it in a different town. I don't know anybody here, I don't know what they are like here, so I'm leaving it up to fate.

I walked into the hallway and it's filled with people, mostly students. I parted ways with Stella and went in search of my locker, it was at the very end which I don't mind. I put some of my books in it and a few other things before leaving.

I found my class after minutes of walking around and I still have about 5 minutes left before the first class starts. I found myself a seat in the middle of the class, my desk mate seemed to be lost in thought so I decided to start a conversation, might as well make a friend while I'm at it.

'Hello, my name is Maya Grant.' I introduced myself while giving her one of my brightest smiles. I don't know what to tell you but I love smiling.

She smiled back at me too before replying. 'Hi.' She's so pretty and cute. Her eyes are forest green, she has long eyelashes which looks so good on her. She looks like she doesn't talk much, thankfully I can talk enough for the both of us.

'May I know your name?' I asked with a slight smile. She's so shy.

'I'm Emily. Emily Myers.'

She answered shyly which made me smile even more than I was. She's so cute I just wanna squeeze her. Emily is the shy type but she looks like if you get to know her, she can be more crazy. She has a playful glint in her eyes. I feel like we would be good friends.

' I just moved here and I don't have any friends here nor do I know anywhere. Would you like to hangout after school?.'

I requested.

' Ummm sure. why not.'

'Okay, I look forward to it.' I smiled at her and the bell rang signaling the start of class. The teacher walked in and started the class.

.......' i want you to write a summary of the book and I want it on my desk by Friday'. Mr Peter announced before leaving the class. Literature just ended and I'm already regretting it. It's the first day of school and I already have an assignment, if that isn't mean I don't know what is.

I groaned before putting my books in my bag pack, it's lunch break and I was kind of hoping to eat with Emily.

I turned to ask her but she was already looking at me fidgeting, I got worried.

'Are you okay?' I asked hurriedly which she nodded in reply.

'What's wrong? Are you nervous about something? ' I asked again, hoping to get an answer this time.

' I was kind of wondering if you want to have lunch together, it's okay if you don't want to, i completely understand. It's just that you're new and have no friends so I was thinking.......'

'Calm down.' I stopped her before she goes any further. I take back everything I said about her not being talkative.

' I would love to have lunch with you and I was just about you ask you too. God you're so adorable.' she smiled shyly and blushed a little.

'Come on, let's go eat. I'm starving'. I smiled at her and we left the class together.
