Joy's POV:
Hmm....what is being weird?
Some say being weird is a terrible thing, some say being weird is better than being normal. Others say that being weird is not being right.
Well in my family there is no such thing as weird, there is only being normal and perfect. From my strict father who thinks education is the importance of life, from my beautiful mom who obeys orders, from the eldest brother who is a doctor, from the 2nd eldest who is an intelligent college student following his brother's footsteps, and from the youngest brother who is an academic prodigy, and even me. Perfection is all that is necessary for my family, And if we are not perfect, we are cut out. Is what my dad taught all four of us. And as the only girl being in my family, I have an important job of being an innocent sweetheart that does everything right.
I thought all this again and kept replaying these words in my mind until I heard a snap, and then another. To my surprise, it's my friend Andy trying to get my attention. Snapping her fingers.
"Huh...what is it"?I said startled.
"Girl, you ok, you been dazing out a lot lately".
"I'm sorry what is it"?
"I was asking are you coming over to play League of Losers"
"I'm sorry I can't, my dad is making sure me and my siblings are here for dinner, even my brother and his wife are coming"
"Oh, that sucks, me, Risa, and the twins were gonna play, and then binge movies".
"Gezz that sucks, I'm surprised we're having a get-together dinner on a Friday, we even have church the next day, "I say annoyingly.
"Just remember to have control, you know how your dad gets".
"You don't have to tell me twice"
Me and Andy were sitting on the hallway stairs eating honey-buns on the 2nd floor. It was lunch break and the cafeteria was so nosy it felt like the best-buy line but on black Friday. Usually, our getaway spot was here the 2nd-floor hallway stairs where it was so quiet you can hear us chewing our food.
While we ate in silence, the bell rang, and me and Andy let out an annoying sigh.
"Let's hurry up and go to class before the gorillas start bulldozing in."
"ok".
Our quiet lunch turned into a bunch of high school kids swarming to go to class. Me and Andy had different classes so we said our byes and went to class before the second bell rang. The class was already full when I got there, I bunch of boys were playing around in the back of the class, messing around and laughing. But I tried not to mind them and sat at my desk till a felt a paper ball hit my face.
"Hey isn't that uniform skirt a little too short, your dad will get mad," one boy said.
At that statement, all the boys started laughing.
"It's daddy's little girl being disobedient." the other said.
I ignored them and sat down. The rest of the class was quiet for they didn't want to get involved in such an immature situation. I didn't blame them.
The boys stopped laughing and noticed I was ignoring them.
"Hey bitch what are you mute, you can't see or hear I presume huh, "Boy 1 said.
"Let's just leave her alone she always thinks she's all that just cause she is number 1 in the school"Boy 2 said.
The boys left me alone and went about their business, but there was something I needed to get off my chest.
"Hey," I said.
'All boys turned around.
"My skirt is 23 cm waistline, and about 3ft long, my skirts over my knees not being able to see 70% of my legs, scientifically in the human brain you can tell by a first glance that my skirt is very long, but I understand there are some ed people in this academy, and I'll be able to recommend a great facility that can help you. It's the least I can do as student body president really."
I turned my head around and pulled out my book ready for class to start.
The class was quiet so quiet you can hear the wind from outside, and the windows were closed. Everyone was trying not to make eye-contact with the 5 boys whose existence has just been deceased. The girl sitting next to me couldn't help but wonder if I was just brave, or straight-up stupid and wanted a death wish. The 5 guys I just offended were David, Lewis, James, Charlie, and Even. They were from a gang and usually bullied a lot of kids in the academy.
David the main guy of the group was furious.
"What the hell did you say, you a little bit-!!"
Before he could finish the sentence the bell rang.
Everyone in the class let out a sigh of relief, they knew if we weren't saved by the bell things would not end well.
All the other boys calmed David down and sat in- their seats.
Our teacher, Mr. Ruvv came in.
"Hello Class, I hope you had a great lunch period, the food was great wasn't it?"He said energetically.
The class was quiet.
"hahaha, well let's get on with class shall we," he said awkwardly.
The poor guy looked like he wanted to crawl in a corner.
Everyone in the class would make jokes and wonder if Mr.Ruvv was high or something, he was so energetic for no reason. I thought it was pretty cute.
"I know it's a little late but we actually have a transfer student," he said.
"A transfer student it's 5th period, "1 student said.
"It's practically in the middle of the school year." another whispered.
"I know I know its late, but she had to transfer to a different school for family personal reasons"
'So it's a girl I thought, without even looking I can tell that all the boys were excited.
Vulgar Uncultured Roaches I thought, Andy called it VUR.
Mr.Ruvv wrote the girl's name on the board.
Lu..n..a....A..da..m...
Luna Adams.
"Luna you can come to the class"
I very tall girl came in, she had really light skin with thin black eyes, short black hair with a blue highlighter with an undercut, she had a black leather jacket over the uniform, and her dress was really short. She had a black choker on her neck and was blowing bubblegum While dragging her bookbag. She looked like your average bad girl.
"This is Luna Adams, she comes from Australia, she just moved back to New York, but she actually used to live here a long time ago."
The class was amazed she came from another country.
"Luna is there anything you'd like to say to the class."
Before Luna could say anything, two girls in the back of the class started whispering.
"Are you sure she didn't just get expelled from every school in Australia and had to move here?" one girl said to the other.
The two started giggling until Mr.Ruvv caught them.
"Girls that was very rude of yo-"
Luna cut him off from his sentence before he can finish anything.
"It's fine," she said.
She had a very nice but stern Australian accent.
"It's fine teach, I see there are a few bitches in this class that doesn't know their place, no worries I'm giving this as a warning so no need to shit your pants, I'm not a person to be fucked with, lets all just be great friends and I don't have to mess you hoes real bad, ok," she said with a smile.
The class was shock even the teacher.
"What the Hell," I thought.
The two girls looked so terrified it's unbelievable.
"Teach where do I sit," she asked.
"Um...you can sit next to...um in front of Joy," he said.
Shit, I thought.
As she was walking towards me, she stopped and looked like she remembered something.
"Oh that's right I forgot, the principal said that I think the Student President was supposed to give me a tour or something."
Shit, this is not my day I thought.
"That's right Joy, why don't you give Luna a tour of the school, hmm, let her get adjusted to her surroundings."
"What no way"...is what I wanted to say.
"Sure, Mr.Ruvv".
I walked out of the classroom and Luna followed me.
Let's just get this over with, I thought.
