SKY
Once we entered our classroom, I know it is not that easy for me because I was sitting next to Eian Ross, the son of my mom's bestie.
I know I cannot exchange seats to Cindy because the last two vacant seats were Eian and her boyfriend Vince. It was inappropriate if I say I will go seat next to her boyfriend. So, I do not have a choice but sit next to Eian.
I do not know what happen to us when we were growing up. We used to be friends and played along with each other. In time, we changed as every year added in us until we became strangers.
We see on some gatherings but never even talk or mingle, not a single word. He goes to different group but never goes to me.
I ignored it acted like we never knew each other. Now, sitting next to him would be awkward until the end of this senior year. This is our first time sitting near and I think or I guess first time we have classes together.
I keep myself busy, my mouth shut and focus on this subject. Heard the last bell, until our teacher walked in.
Discussing some of the lessons we will be taking part for this year. Roll calling our names alphabetically. Eian name has been called first than mine. It would not be shocking to me to be called after his because his surname is Ross and mine is Torres. It will always be called next since it was always alphabetic.
Our teacher was giving us some questions. If any of us knows or reading in advance. I wanted to raise my hand because I know everything when it comes to history or any subjects because I totally a bookworm. I spend most of my time reading because I am a homebody.
When the teacher called my name, I gave my answers. Of course, I do not like to say 'I do not know the answer' that's not me. I have given this awesome brain so I will use it properly.
I sat back quietly I know Eian was staring at me. I can feel his eyes and I tried not to feel nervous.
Yeah, he makes me nervous all the time when I see him. I was praying that this is the only subject we have together.
Our first period was ended and I feel comfortable even I sat beside Eian. Our classmates were okay and I do not have problems with their attitudes. So far so good.
Cindy and I walked together towards our next period. It was English subject, we sat next to each other. I am happy with that.
However, fate was a funny thing I saw Eian and Vince walked in together in the classroom. Oh boy! We have the same classes together again in the morning for the second time.
I cannot wait for lunch so that I could stay away from his face. One thing I was gladly thankful even we were classmates in my morning subjects. We were not sitting next to each other.
Our English teacher was nice too had similarity with our history teacher. We do not have problems with it. He was also kind of cool. We all can get along well.
Same as our first period, he made a roll calling names. He never discusses about our lesson for today. Instead, he gave us seatwork's to answer before he discusses our main topic from the book.
We were all giving five questions written on the board.
1. What is my top college choice?
2. Do I even want to go to college?
3. If not college, then what?
4. Will there be a need for what I like to do 10 years from now?
5. Summary of my Senior High school
"I want you to start writing it now but I will get it before finals. This will be one of your highest percentage grades that I will base on." He spoke. "You write it in separate notebook. Write as what you think and feel about your own life in the future. Am I clear, class?" He added as we response in sync.
Lunch time came and I did not go to the cafeteria. I have my own hidden place that I know no one will go there since last year I discover it. Our school premises were spacious since it is one of the best private schools.
Walking towards my sanctuary. It is a garden with some benches and tables around. I do not know why there are no students were staying there during lunch break. But I was delightful at the same time. That it was only me because I do not like surrounded with fake people. I am done with that.
Cindy knew where I was and she has even been here. Since she has a boyfriend, she stays with him. I do not mind at all. I have my own thing too whenever I am alone and she knows that.
I love to be a fashion designer and photography and that is what I want to take both in college. I love to draw dresses or clothes in different sexes even when I was young. Not only clothes but also sketching, painting even houses, buildings and something related to art. No one knew about it only Cindy when she accidentally saw my drawings except my family, of course.
She said I was born to be that way and I have to pursue my talent. Well, I love to draw and design my own clothes even though I do not apply it on my own. I was opposite actually on my own appearance.
I am simple person always wear jeans, a little loose shirt and sneakers all the time. I am not lesbian but I just do love it. I do wear skirts, shorts or dresses but occasionally. I do not feel like it when it comes to my body. I love to draw dresses, be a fashion designer but applying it to myself it is a No-no thing for me.
Maybe one day I definitely wear all my designs confidently. As for now, I will stick with what I am comfortable at and that's simple attire.
I sat at my favorite spot. Taking out my sketch pad, pencils and my lunch.
