Today is my first day on school. I've been homeschooling ever since for some personal reasons. But now, I've decided to just enjoy everything. I want to feel experience to have friends, to study with other people; not just me and the teacher. I wanna hang out with friends and do a thing a teenagers do when they're at my age.
I actually planning to leave alone but I still haven't told it to my Mom and Dad. I was worried they wouldn't agree since they don't want me to leave their sight.
I just sighed internally and just keep on walking.
After a few moments, I was with my professor. We're already walking to my future classroom. My emotions are mixed, I don't know how to feel.
I was happy and excited since it's my first time to go to school. I was also anxious, I didn't know if it will go well. I hope I can make friends where I can talk to and hang out.
I'm scared that I wouldn't make even one friend, I don't want to be a loner.
When we entered the room, I suddenly get nervous. I could feel my hands sweat.
I roamed my eyes on the whole room. Everyone have been doing all their bussinesses. Some are flirting, some are talking, some are fighting.
If I didn't know, I would think that this is a highschool. But no, we're already college.
They just act like one.
My eyes suddenly to the girl who's nesting her head on her table. She looks like sleeping.
I just removed my eyes on her when everyone stop what they're doing and greeted the professor I'm with.
The professor greeted back and told me to introduce myself to everyone.
I calm myself down first before I speak.
"Hello everyone. My name is Gavin Kang. Nice to meet you all, let's get along well."
After I speak, my nervousness came back.
The professor nodded at me and smile. "That's good enough. You can now seat ln the vacant chairs."
I nodded to and push my eyeglasses. It was one of my habit when I'm shy or nervous.
I roamed my eyes again to look for an empty chair. I found two empty chairs. One in the middle part and one in the last row, the seat beside the sleeping girl.
I was internally battling to my self on where to sit.
For some, the middle part is a good seat since you can really here what the professor will say and focus on studies. But the person beside it, she look like a talkative person, well she can be my friend.
But, I also want to study. Wouldn't I focus on study if the person beside me is talkative?
I look to the girl sleeping again.
I get anxious, how can I ask her when she's sleeping? Also there's a bag on the empty seat.
When I was about to turn around, I suddenly saw her hands clenched into fist. That's when I find out that she aren't sleeping.
I get the courage back and ask her. "E-excuse me, can I seat here?"
In the end, I still stuttered.
After I said that, everyone look at me with wide eyes and surprised look.
Someone immediately stop me when I was about to tap the girl's shoulder. "H-hey stop that!"
"Don't wake her up, or else your school life won't be good!"
I knitted my brows in confusion.
Is this girl... really that scary?
Her hair alone can make me identified her as a beautiful girl.
Well, I can't judge a book by it's cover. Maybe this girl really is scary.
I just stop my thoughts when I heard a female vouce talking to me. "Come, just sit here."
I immediately look up saw that it is the girl who also have a vacant seat besdie her.
I was about to turn around when I suddenly heard a noise that shocked me.
I look at the table that has been kicked then turned my eyes on the person who kicked it.
When I look up at her, I immediately became stiffed.
Her beauty... stunned me. She looked so intimidating in a way that you'll sweat just by looking at her sharp eyes. She looked so authoritative in a way that she can control your life.
She's so pretty that I didn't noticed that I swallowed my saliva like a pervert do when they saw a gorgeous girl.
Everyone in the room immediately shut their mouths, even the proffessor.
She really is scary.
Did I get myself into trouble?
Oh please, I hope not.
"So f*****g noisy." I hear the girl said in annoyance then look at a particular person.
When I followed who she's looking at, I found out that it's the girl who asked me to sit beside her.
Why is she only look at her? I'm the one who started it. Isn't she angry that I woke her up?
My nervousness came back, doubled.
"I-Im sorry, I didn't mean t-to disturb you. I'll just f-find other seat." I keep on stuttering like an idiot.
Nit waiting for her to reply because I don't want her to be annoyed more or else I'll really get into trouble on my first day of school.
I was about to turn around when the girl suddenly removed her bag on the empty sit beside her then go back to sleep on the table like nothing happened.
My mouth parted in surprised.
"What did just happen?"
"Did you guys see that?! What the hell is going on!"
"Did they know each other? Then why would she allow him to seat beside her?"
Everyone whispered to each other, like me, they're shocked for what happen.
Is it really surprising to seat on this chair? Is looks like a throne that is so precious to be seated at.
I just shake my head and sit.
We shared the same table, also it wasn't so big that if I also put my both arms on it, our skin will touch each other.
When I realized what I'm thinking, I feel like I want to slap myself. I immediately sit straight and push my eyeglasses.
I look at the girl beside me.
I thought she's scary? Maybe the way she looks earlier, yes. But she allowed me to seat here. She isn't as bad as I thought.
Maybe... we can be friends?
I cleared my throat and speak.
"Hi! My name is Gavin. C-can we be... f-friends?" I asked in a low voice.
Only me and her can hear.
I waited and waited for her to removed her head on her arms to look at me but a few minutes already past but she still haven't said anything.
My courage waver slowly.
I was about to removed my gaze on her when I felt that she moved.
She only let me see half of her face.
"No." she said plainly.
I felt like a bomb have exploded on me.
I panicked and immediately lowered my eyes. I want to find a place to hide myself because of embarrassment.
She's right. How can I be friends with her? She's so... pretty. I don't think I deserve it.
I could feel my eyes redden but I still keep my head slow. I hope she won't notice.
"I want more than friends" I hear her said before nesting her head on her arms again.
I felt like I suddenly became a statue.
Did I hear it right?
Did she really... said that?
Or is it just my imagination?
B-but why?
If it is really true, then maybe she's just playing with me.
Please, don't joke something like that.
