The eyes of the Lord are in every place, beholding the evil and the good. - Proverbs 15:3 (KJV)
Was it fate?
It was a Tuesday as I sat in my seat and took out my book.
Other students had started to pile into class.
"A new student is coming here today!" A girl squealed to her friends.
"I heard he is tall."
"I heard he's handsome."
"He must be kind."
They all started whispering about the new student.
A guy came to them. "I heard he got expelled from his old school."
"Yeah, he beat up a bunch of kids and sent them to the hospital. I don't think you should hang out with him."
"He could be trouble."
The girls gasped at the new information and started whispering again, but in fear.
I rolled my eyes and focused on my book.
The teacher spoke, "Today, we will have a new student. Mr. Jackson, can you please to introduce yourself?"
A mysterious voice responded, "Hello, my name is Percy."
And that was how it all started.
Unedited. It's been a while, how are you all doing? I'm trying something new today. Thanks for stopping by! :)
