My Rascal boyfriend

Faceless people

Chapter 1.1

I let out a tired sigh in the early of the morning while I'm still lying down on my bed. "I'm tired already" even though, I haven't done anything. Weird right? I easily get tired for nothing, I guess, I need to be productive especially that this will be my last school year in Highschool. After preparing myself, I do not eat with my family because, in the first place, I don't have one and aside from that, We're not family-oriented so I usually eat at the school cafeteria.

Now I'm here in the cafeteria. Eating all alone as usual. It's cool that I'm surrounded by so many people but no one is noticing me and no one is avoiding me. I'm just like a ghost in a human form which is I find very awesome. And when people are talking to me, I stared at their faces with an "X" on their faces. Why do I do that? Because I believe, there's no point of knowing them personally if they will be just a temporary, Like I said, I hate wasting unnecessary energy so I always put my energy into something that I think, Will be beneficial for myself. Plus, it's fun visualizing them with an "X" symbol. There's no handsome or beautiful for me, they all look the same.

I'm almost done eating and it's already time for my first subject which is "Science" my favorite subject. I think, no one hates this subject not unless if there's a number on it but I'm completely fine solving some mathematical problems. But if you're going to ask my specific favorite science field, I'll answer it with astronomy. I like space and how mysterious it is. It's just so awesome that I could not stop wondering some kinds of stuff about our universe. Like, if aliens are real and Jupiter are so big that it has so many moons, I wanted to live there but it has no land but you could fly there HAHAHA. I envy Jupiter for having so many friends, I mean moon.

When the school bell rung, which means it's time for our lesson. My classmates were slowly entering, I Guess, Our teacher would be late for today so I land my face on my desk and soon start picturing myself surrounded by so many moons and they'll talk to me and ask me how was my life on earth. I replied and said "It was freaking boring" and they all laugh and replied also "Why not join with us, here in Jupiter?" I was fantasizing for so long that my science teacher was already here and teaching the class already. He noticed me. This is not good because I hate when everyone's eyes were on me. My teacher asked me. "Have you been in space after dozing off?" And the whole class begin to c***k up their voice. I nodded and immediately ignore them as I listen to the class discussion.

After my scene, My teacher continues his lesson. He was explaining our activity, a group activity. It sounds not good to me so I raised my hand and ask him "Is it's okay for me to do it alone? Since I'm fine by myself." And he said. "You're being clown Ethan, it's a group activity, therefore you'll have a partner with your tablemate. Okay?" There's nothing I can do but to pair with the person next to me. After I asked my teacher, the person next to me also raised his hand and said. "Mr, Smith, It's alright if this dude doesn't want to pair up with me, neither I." Vertical wrinkles appeared between Mr, Smith's eyebrows as Mr, Smith slammed his palm on the table. "You two, if you don't want to pair up, then I will remove your names here in my class record so you can do your stuff all by yourselves" the guy and I immediately stood up on our chair as we both let out an uproar, saying. "No Sir, please forgive us. We would like to pair with each other." Our eyes meet each other because we just said the same thing. The guy asked me if I'm mimicking his statement which is not true. I didn't pay attention to him but I whispered and said

"No"

"what?! I could not hear your voice!" The guy replied with a high tone pitch of voice that catches the attention of the class.

"I said, I'm not mimicking you." damned! This guy forcing me to waste my energy. I'm having a sweat now so I have decided to go to the restroom but I accidentally fell my chair that took the attention of Mr, Smith again. "Are you stomping? Mr, Ford" My teacher asked, shouting in the class. I respond "No sir, I'm sorry but I have to go to the toilet now." I rush towards the toilet even though, I haven't heard what Mr, Smith responds to my reply. For sure, he will be mad at me, I'm sure of it, definitely...

This what happened when I'm gaining attention from anyone, I should shut up my mouth in the first place. So this won't happen to me. But it happens damn!

After my self-time inside the restroom. I'm completely back on my feet and I have to act as nothing happened, I have to remind myself calm to face my classmates, especially the guy who's sitting next to me. Funny that I haven't even got to know his name.

I'm glad Mr, Smith is gone. I can finally breathe but one thing I'm sure with. I have to interact with the guy that Mr, Smith assigned me. We have to talk about our project. I will not lose with anyone, I want this activity to be successful perhaps got the highest grade. When I obtain my courage and confidence to talk to the guy who sits next to me for our project, the guy is suddenly gone! It is unbelievable! Now he is nowhere to find. Why do I have to deal with this kind of situation now? It's like, I'm being punished for making a scene a while ago. This day sucks really. I hope nothing worse than this happens to me, today.
