So, here's chapter two,
Summer quickly came to an end and the Braginski children got their schedules. Ivan luckily didn't get any classes with Natalia, thank God. His big sister, Katusha, got the sewing classes and the ballet classes she wanted. Ivan peaked at his schedule, Russian History, Wood working, Theater, and... Ivan smiled and skipped to the bus stop whispering, "Spanish dance class, here I come!"
After a long bus ride full of Alfred attempting to steal his schedule, he got to school and sat through the boring classes like math, who seriously needed to know where the number one came from? It wouldn't help pay the bills. After Bore-O-Thon, was lunch time. He sat down with his friends, Yao Wang, a Chinese exchange student, Polina Jones, she wasn't part of the Braginski family, but Ivan always thought of her as a "daughter", and the Baltic Brothers, they weren't really related but everyone thought they were. "So how was class, aru? Yao asked. "I have to have an essay done by tomorrow." Polina groaned before Ravis offered to help with it. Toris and Eduard had a conversation before Alfred walked up with his gang, "Step aside, commies. This is our table."
Ivan rolled his eyes as he and his tiny group were about to move until, "Alfred, they were sitting there first. Let them stay." Ivan turned to see Maria snapping at her cousin. "Lo siento about my cousin." she laughed before the group sat down again. "Alfred's so annoying." Ivan mumbled. Maria sighed and said, "He's like that sometimes..." Ivan and Maria continued their conversation until the Lunch Bell rang.
After two more classes, it was finally last period. Spanish Dance class. Ivan bolted down the halls and got there to see... The Italian Sibling's Grandfather? He looked up, "Oh, ciao! You are..." "Ivan Braginski." The teacher shook his hand, "I'm Mr. Vargas, but you can call me Mr. V." This was going to be a long year.
