Mr Han studied her for a while in silence, which made Mia so uncomfortable that she wanted to run away.
He picked the small looking microphone and summoned someone to his office.
"When the student comes, do you want to go to class first or be shown around the school?"
"I'd like to go to class first," Mia was too happy to roam around the school. She wanted to be in the class and learn like other pupils.
Mr Han then told her the rules "Behave yourself. If you go detention, your parents will have to be called. No getting E's and D- in such a school. Always respect others. No makeup in school. I can't tell you all the rules, I have a printed paper of rules, take it." He handed the sheet to her.
"Your class is called Alpha. This school has 3 types of classes, Alpha, Beta and Gamma in every grade. Being in Alpha the best class, don't lazy around. Make friends so that they can show you the other rooms for learning the courses you want to pursue. Good luck." And with that, a boy entered the office almost immediately.
"Yes Mr Han, you called for me, am here," He said bowing.
"Take her to Alpha class,"
"He turned to Mia, and gazed for a while until Mr Han snapped his finger. The boy turned red with embarrassment.
"Come with me," He carried Mia's bag, which was rather light.
When they stepped out of the office, they boy couldn't even look at her.
He had dark brown hair, fair skin and dark brown eyes that complemented his hair. His smile was cute and he seemed shy.
Mia decided to break the silence...
"So, what's your name and what grade are you in? He didn't seem older than her. He was the exact height with her.
"My name is Liam Harry and am in the 11th grade,How about you?"
"Hello, Liam, am Mia Bexley and am a junior too. You can call me Mia. Which class are you?" Mia has never been this confident. Liam seemed like a friendly person though.
"Am in Alpha class and you Mia?"
"Same," She answered grinning like an angel.
As they walked, they ascended a colourful stair way. The walls were painted beautifully.
Liam noticed how she was distracted. Why was she so pretty? She was the prettiest person he has ever seen. And now the Goddess is in the same class as him.
"Mia, how old are you? if I may ask"
"Am 16, how about you?"
Liam: same as you
He offered her his smile, and Mia smiled back.
Liam avoided the elevator to spend more time with her. He has never been so interested in a girl before until she met her minutes ago..
"May I ask, do you know who Raquel is?" Mia asked him.
"Uum... yeah, I know only one Raquel, who is a senior in Gamma class. Why?"
Mia: I just wanted to know where my friend is so that she can show me around the school later .
Liam: Oh wow, you have a popular friend. Many girls wanna befriend her so bad. Though she is not that nice. Literally like many boys are chasing her, but then she announced to everyone that she is dating a boy named Zane Luca. He is a junior yet Raquel is a senior. Odd right?
Mia: Uh, yeah.
She said with her spirits low after she heard Zane's name.
"Do you know where Zane class is?" Mia asked him. Apparently, Zane became infamous after dating Raquel.
"Zane is in Beta class, he has only one friend because the boys are jealous of him." Liam answered.
"Is Zane your friend?" Mia asked, as he wondered why she was interested in knowing, nevertheless, he answered with a simple no.
"Did you also become jealous Liam?"
That question made Liam smile. He didn't seem like the shy boy any longer. He faced Mia and stared deep into her eyes.
"Because I never really took interest in her. I never really liked anyone," He gazed at Mia's captivating ocean blue eyes.
Mia wondered why he never loved someone despite his good looks, then she remembered it was the same case with her
"We need to go to class," He said after staring at her. How was he so interested in a girl he met minutes ago.
The halls on the third floor were clean, and Mia noticed the security cameras that hang at the halls. Mr Han was probably watching them
It was then that Mia realized this private highschool, Cambridge, how expensive it was.
Did Greta have to do all this for her? She would have just been fine with a public school.
When they halted in front of a classroom door, Liam opened it and they entered to find a teacher.
Everyone stood up and welcomed her, as if they were expecting her.
She introduced herself to everyone.
The class itself looked fancy and large, with pink and blue plastic shelves at the back.
She spotted an empty seat at the back, and noticed a boy with long jet black hair at the back waving at her. Too bad Liam was sitting at the front. He seemed focused unlike before when he was looking at her.
She made her way to the Back seat, and noticed gazes, but she was used to it now.
She sat at the corner near the longhaired boy.
When she opened her desk, she found a lot of new books arranged inside.
The school had issued her with books. Why buy books when the school fees cost 'an arm and a leg'.
They boy placed his head on his knuckles staring at Mia with no shame.
Mia faced him.
He had jet black hair, long to his chin length.
He had muscles that made him look manly and sexy. He was hot and Mia found herself blushing when he smiled at her.
Compared to Liam and Zane, one would described Liam as handsome, and Zane as cute and hot, but the longhaired boy was all of their descriptions. Their difference was their body sized, he seemed taller, manlier and sexier.
Suddenly, a woman's voice boomed in the classroom.
"Mr Clyde!! If you don't want to concentrate in my class you are free to leave" The teacher mocked, emphasizing on the name 'Mr Clyde'.
" Sorry miss" The longhaired boy stood up bowing his head.
He seemed to distracted with the new girl, which some girls in the class noticed.
Mia concentrated with the Physics lesson, and her brain got all the information.
The Teacher: So am going to ask a question. Take your books and be ready to calculate. First multiply this number without your calculators, if you use your calculators you are gonna fail and I know why. What is 3557.3704×5037? Use the shortest method I showed y'all.
Everyone took out their books and started calculating as fast as possible.
The teacher halted her eyes at the new student. Mia's eyes were fixed on the classroom screen where the question had been written. She was still and looked like a statue.
"Everyone stop! Mia, are you thinking of home? Am pretty sure you have hands and books," everyone turned to look at Mia.
There were chuckles in the classroom, obviously laughing at her. Oh she was supposed to calculate with a book?
"Since you seem to be a genius, tell us the answer, Mia" the teacher added.
"3557.3704×5037 is 1..7..9...1...8...4..7..4.7
Yes the answer is 17, 918474.7" Mia answered after the calculation in her head. The way she said was like guessing which made Liam lift his brows.
Before the teacher could say anything else, the bell for breakfast rang and some kids scrambled out of the door.
At least she made a friend, Liam, who approached her, and 3 girls, one with long pigtails the other with a ponytail, another one with bangs and short hair, trailing behind the one with pigtails.
Clyde wanted to engage Mia in a conversation, but the three girls and Liam interrupted.
"Clyde, hun," said the girl with pigtails and she shamelessly sat on his lap. The other two girls sat on his desk.
Mia just stood up, she was unhappy with what she saw and she didn't know why.
Before she could go, Liam clasped her arm.
"My guy, Liam, why you touching the new girl like that, your are making her uncomfy bestie," said Clyde, averting his gaze at Liam's arm.
"Clyde, she needs to know around the school and the cafeteria. I didn't show her yet. I don't think you and your girls are going to help her at all," Liam answered that seemed rude, but Mia saw that they were indeed friends.
Before anything else could happen, someone entered the class when all the other students were outside.
Mia smiled at the two people at the door and loosened the slight grip of Liam.
It was Raquel and Zane
