I scanned through the classroom and it was tense, however I exhaled and proceeded to calm down my nerves
''Hi everyone, my name is Zoey nice to meet yall'' I said.
A few stared at me, others smiled but there was one person who had caught my full attention. It was a chubby girl waving her hand up in the air signaling me to come sit beside her. I first glanced at her then approached her with warm greetings. Her name is Bee Bieri and she was a transfer student from switzerland who just located around to study at the college. She had a perfectly tanned skin with a french bob hairstyle in many creative colours on it and all her accessories were colourful which meant she must be prolific.
The classroom session carried on and soon a loud, prolonged ringing of bells chimed.Immediately Bee stood up drastically then began to drag me swiftly out of the classroom. she led me to the cafetorium and ported me by one of the tables.
'' Stay here, i will be back'' she demanded. what was happening.
''ummm.. ok'' i said confused.
A few moments back, she returned lugging two trays of displayed delicious food and offered me one of them which she slide to the side of the table where I was. she smiled gently and sat down closely next to me
''So tell me about yourself. Where you from? how old are you? do you have any siblings,if so how many?'' she asked with enthusiasm.
OK, I started to think of many ways to excuse myself when I suddenly noticed her head bowed down.
'' I'm sure you think I am a weirdo or a loser and I am positively sure you were planning to not talk to me by tomorrow or anytime soon''
well.. you not wrong, I was planning too( seriously feeling guilty now). I thought to myself for a moment.
'' it's just that nobody wants to talk to me since I transferred to this school. Its either they avoiding me or spreading rumors about me and.. when I saw you... I thought I could make you my friend before you became someone else's friend'' she frowned.
I felt bad. I did not know that this is what she had to go through be here everyday( I mean it's a classy school so I thought the students here would want to interact and be each other's friend. I did not know that actually in the inside it was like this. I guess an expensive school can't buy out bullying ) and here I was about to judge her. I thought deep about what she said and I know that nobody wants to feel lonely or be alone.
During my childhood I always endured loneliness when it came to making friends but dad being there made me realize that i was not alone, many friends would be available for me in the future. Bee probably would not feel like this if one of her relative was around so I had to do her right, moreover it might be good to have such a ''fun friend'' like her.
she was about to leave when i held the wrist of her hand to stop her
'' I know i am going to seem pathetic by what i have to say but i am going to be sincere. You caught me by surprise and yes I understand your feelings although can we take it slow, being friends. I'' i sighed. That was harder than i imagined.
'' well it's better than nothing'' she gazed at me
'''yes, so what were you questions ?''. I asked
A faint smile soon popped up on her face . I enjoyed the rest of the lunch break with Bee. We laughed , shared jokes and turns out she very spontaneous.The school bell chimed and i started having cramps. i asked Bee if we could make a detour to the restroom and she agreed. we arrived by the restroom to see three girls guffawing and taking pictures of each other. I had changed my mind making a u-turn when all of a sudden one of the girls shouted out us. We both stopped and glanced at each other and looked at them.
One of the girls with big black braided hair stepped out to us and simpered. she was tall, dark and buff and had piercings 70% of her face. Bee got intimidated by her look but i just viewed this as being disrespectful.
'' Hey gals.. so me and pals just got hungry do you mind if you would fetch food for us'' she said
I continued to stare at her before i had something to say.
'' So you can not fetch it by yourself'' I asked. Her face got darker and had this serious look.
''Ahh see, i was not asking'' her tone changed.'' so chop chop, move it.'' Her friends sniggered.
I chuckled for a moment and tapped Bee shoulder as a signal that it time to leave otherwise we will be late for class. we exited the restroom and i could feel the girl furry upon me. Well a girls has got to have enemies to make it in life.( haters gotta hate).
along the way Bee expressed a shocked face at me and made gestures of a volcano blowing up. I giggled.
''OMG ... I can not believe you.. do you know who that is'' she exclaimed
'' Nope , I do not and I bet you are going to tell me'' I smiled.
'' you must show me your ways... That was Natalie Abadi. Daughter of a famous politician and lawyer. she has this awful massive attitude is a spoiled brat, like she is known for being bossy however you my friends are one of the very few people who has ever faced her, it was nice knowing you'' she danced dramatically in the hallway.
I chortled at her act.
'' Don't worry, stick with me and you will never live a life of slavery '' I answered. she nodded.
We entered in the classroom and soon class was in session.
