I swung my feet over the side of the bed. I stretched my arms high above my head. It was 6:30 a.m. on Monday. It was raining outside. I walked over to my bathroom and brushed my teeth. I looked at my reflection in the mirror. My blonde hair was a hot mess. I brushed it out and curled it, by the time I was done it was 7:00, I rushed to put on my dark-washed skinny jeans, my light purple 'Love Pink' tee, with some black hightop converse. I grabbed my backpack and rushed to school. The hallway was empty, so I got my books out of my locker and went to class. I sat in my usual seat beside Jack. "Hey where were you this morning, I have some great news." Jack whispered. I looked over at him. He was wearing a navy Aeropostale tee shirt with black skinny jeans. "What news?" I questioned. Mr. Benson our teacher, passed out a pop quiz. The class groaned. Jack looked back at me, "Rudy is taking us on a camping trip this weekend, you in?" I bit my lip, "Sure." Jack quickly finished his quiz and handed it in. The bell rang and we walked off to our next class. 'This is the best day ever!' I thought to myself walking to math. Jack went on to science. I ran dead smack into Jerry in the hallway. "Whadda do, Kim?" Jerry said , I raised an eyebrow. "Are you going on the dojo camping trip?" Jerry asked. You see, Jerry and I are friends. We will never ever be more than that. I shrugged, "Maybe. Besides Jack already asked me." Jerry shifted his books in his hand. "Figures." I was just about to talk whe he turned and saw a brown-headed girl walk past. "Aye yo, Mika, whadda do girl?" Jerry walked off towards her. I looked over to glance at Mika once again. Mika. Why did that sound familiar? Was it becuase Jerry was always talking about her? No, that wasn't it. I would remember later. Suddenly, I realized that I had never met Mika before. Jerry and Mika were gone and I was alone again. I was later for my second class. No matter how hard I tried the thought of Mika just kept creeping back into my brain. Why hadn't I met her before? I remembered Milton, Eddie, and Jerry talking about how beautiful she was. I never saw her around. After school, I hurried to the dojo to get the facts straight about the camping trip. I was thr first one there. "Kim! Your here, great news!" Rudy said rushing over to me. "I know Rudy, Jack already told me about the trip and I'm going!" I said happily. Rudy's smile faded away. "No, we have a new student in our dojo." Just as Rudy was finishing Jerry, Milton, Eddie, Mika, and Jack came in. Mika. Why was she here. This was the first time I got a good look at her. She had shoulder length hair, it was dark brown and curled. She had a pretty smile, she was wearing a dress with blue flowers on it woth a light blue cardigan. On her shoulder was a pink Victoria's secret tote. Suddenly, I realized what was going on here. I turned to Rudy, "Mika is the new student!?" I said clentching my jaw. I had always been the only girl, so I was not okay with this. "Yes Kim, Mika this is Kim, and Kim as you know this is Mika." Mika shook my hand. Her voice annoyed me. "Hello, Kim, I'm Mika." Like I didn't already know. "Mika is Phil's neice." Jack said walking over beside me. "She was kind of you replacment while you were gone." Milton said looking at me. "Replacment?!" I looked at them, but most importantly at Jack. He hung his head low. "How could you do this to me?!" I screamed as I ran out of the dojo. I was kind of hoping Jack would follow me, like in one of those love stories. But no, he ran over to Mika, and he gave her a hug." The rain started up again. None of them, not even Rudy looked out of the dojo window to see me drenched. I just stood there. They didn't need me. None of them. I ran home. Like they cared what happened to me.
