Chapter 2 - Mommy, I Made New Friends.

Lisa's POV:

"come on hurry up! The bus is about to arrive" says my mom looking through the window.

"The bus arrives so early" I say as I shove the last piece of toast in my mouth.

...

IN SCHOOL.

I put my stuff in my locker and look around to see for my friend.

And, I find her nowhere. But she said that she would come. Maybe, I should wait a little for her. She might pops up from somewhere.

I waited but she didn't come. She is absent. Great, What a day!

I enter the class 'alone' and see an empty chair next to the window, I quickly sit down there. Atleast a view, if not a friend.

I sigh as the teacher comes in.

I look around everbody chatting with each other and here is me, lonely loser.

Luckily, the boy I am sitting next to is super friendly. Although, I do not know how to socialize or start a conversation but he seems so nice.

"Hey, can I borrow a pen?" I say.

No, I'm definitely not the kind of girl who has the whole store of stationary in her bag. I barely have a pen.

"yeah, sure" he says as he turns to his bag to take out an extra pen.

"Thank you, so.. you're new here right?" I ask as I copy the notes from the board.

"Yeah, I shifted here a few days ago. Kind of not used to it but I've made a couple friends here" he says with a small smile.

Great LISA! he just came here and made new friends and look at you, studying since two years still a lonely loser.

"oh.. Wow! That's great, you know. Usually, It's kind of really awkward for some people when they first go to a new school"

Me. I'm some people.

...

We talked a little more about stuff and all.

Well he is nice. Maybe, the problem isn't me. It's the other person who doesn't even show interest while talking to me. But, Josh is so friendly.

Yeah, his name is Josh. Finally, I talked to someone other than asking their name.

After few periods in the same class room, it was lunch time.

I free up my hands from the books I was holding and shove them into my locker.

As I turn around, I suddenly, bump into a guy. Let me explain, I guess he is probably coming from the sports room because he is wearing this athletic shirt and shorts. Well, he is sweaty too so..

He pushes my shoulder lightly from himself and says "Watch out, kid!" and runs ahead to his squad.

Kid?

Did he just call me a kid?

Sure, he is probably a senior but 'kid'?

Well, me on the other hand did not even say anything. I just freezed there and did not even pull my self back until he grabbed my shoulders with his firm hands.

Okay, I get it. He was a little attractive. I mean, not little but more than that but I should have said something.

I head to the cafeteria with my lunch just to sit alone and eat awkwardly.

Suddenly, I feel a tap on my shoulder. I look around to see Josh.

"Hey, wanna come sit with us?" he says with a smile on his face.

Now, at this point I look like the new student who have no friends.

"sure" I say happily and follow him.

Thank God, I did not get to spend my lunch time alone.

"Omer and Mia meet Lisa, Lisa meet Omer and Mia" he says

"Hey, Lisa!" says Mia waving at me. I know her because she was with me in an art competition and we talked a bit.

"Hi Lisa" says Omer in an uninterested voice. I mean, that's the reason I dont talk. I never know what they think of me.

"Hey, guys" I say shyly.

"Where's your friend Brittney?" asks Mia as I take a chair and sit by her and Josh.

"Oh, she didn't come today" I say by disappointment.

Me, Mia and Josh got along well.

We talked by the end of lunch time. But I saw Omer not even looking at us, especially me.

Sir, did I do something wrong?

Huh!

...

I hope you enjoyed.
