As they say, book lovers aren't nerds, they are just people who respect books. For me, I might as well worship books. My favourite author of all time is Jacqueline Wilson. Her books have the colourful vibes, may seem childish but they are fun.
The bell goes after 30 minutes reading into 'The Story Of Tracy Beaker '. I was getting into the interesting part, I sigh and use my index finger to calmly hit the book shut like how you would try to weigh an object accurately.
The chair slids backward and i get up, return the book to the shelf and walk towards the door.
I sit at the window with a total see through of the corridor so anyone going out or coming in can easily be noticed by me.
A dark (with a touch of ginger) hair coloured boy with light freckles is standing next to our Economics teacher, he has straight hair and you can barely see half his neck, he's putting on a black t-shirt - it looks like he migjt be putting on a chain. He's wearing black pants and has Nike shoes on. I can only see his back but not the front, I tilt my head sideways but end up getting distracted by the Eco-friendly video being played.
"There are a lot of ways we can help the environment, there are climate changes, floods, and different occurrence. Lets take an example, Bees, Bees are highly needed in our environment..."
My head slids back to the corridor..., he's nowhere to be found.
I look forward and the sight that awaited me was truly surreal.
"YOU!" I shout, the whole class stares.
"Any problem?, that's not how we welcome someone." Mrs Sandrine says
I whisper a silent sorry but i soon get distracted looking at the boy.
"Hi, I'm Kevin Carter and I'm joining the class today" he says
"that's pretty much it."
Throughout the class, i stare at him, well, he sits closer to Katelyn and my intrusive thoughts tell me she's tryna get close to him.
The bell goes for break, everyone immediately move close to... Carter I guess, he gives the baffled look, I give a smirk.
Voices arise.
"Hi, I'm Charlie Crownfield".
"I'm Stanley Trevor, d'you like basketball I'm a big fan, i really wanna become a professional, do you play it?, did you watch last match, who's your favourite team?".
"Uh, basketball, boooring, how about swimming, have you ever tried a large slide, how about watching a match?, by the way, I'm Priscillia, I..."
Katelyn interrupted by a throat clearing, everyone looks behind, she walks to Carter
"Hi, I'm Katelyn, Katelyn McKenzie".
"Mc..., you mean the brand".He asks
"No, technically it's not the brand, surnames increase your humanity rate to some". Amy says.
Everyone watches, Katelyn looked like a tomato about to explode. Priscillia, obviously steps in " And what may you mean by that?, she doesn't have a humanity?".
Katelyn stamps her feet and leaves, i stamp my lips and smile.
I hear Alice whisper to Tina "Talk about a backfired help mission".
Everyone sits and some others go out, everyone take turns imitating
