Green ran into the classroom, having plenty of time to talk to Red about yesterday. He opened the door and rushed into the room and looked around room. He was so excited to talk to Red and get to know him better. As he looked around, that excitement started to fade. He did a double take of the room and continued to look around; constantly looking again and again to make sure he hadn't missed him. His excitement had almost completely faded; Red was nowhere to be seen.
Green whipped his head to the side to look at the door as someone came in the room. Part of him mistook it as Red for a split second but then realized it wasn't. The kid who came in the room was Joey. Green sighed disappointed but waved a hello at the boy all the same.
Joey grinned and walked over, waving. "Hey Green." He stopped by him. "I bet you want to hear more of my super amazing, awesome, top percentage pet rat." Joey's grin widened.
Green looked at him with an unamused look, which Joey never caught. Soon enough, the boy ways rattling off about how awesome his rat was. Green wasn't thrilled at this kid constantly talking and not shutting up for a minute. He watched the door waiting for someone to come in through that door and save him from this kid.
The door opened and Green's heart skipped with joy, mistaking another kid as Red for a split second. This time it was Leaf. Green shoved past Joey and his rant about how awesome his rat was, and walked over to Leaf.
"Morning, Leaf." Green said stopping by the girl.
Leaf flipped the hood off of her head and nodded a hello. "Hey Green. What's up?" She looked at him, knowing he wanted to know something.
Green sighed. "Nothing much. Do you know where that quiet kid is?" He asked, not exactly knowing if she really knew Red's name or not.
"You mean Red?" She asked and Green nodded his head. Leaf snickered slightly. "Why do you want to know where he is?"
"Cause he's not here." Green said somewhat trailing off at the end of his sentence. Maybe Leaf wasn't the right person to ask this sort of thing.
She sighed softly. "Don't expect him here for a while." Green looked at her confused for a second, wondering how she could possibly say something like that.
"Why shouldn't I expect him here? Is he sick or something?"
She shook her head. "Well your new here but that kid if he misses a grade or something ends up acting like a baby the day he gets it and doesn't come to school for a while later." She shrugged. "No one really knows why. Most kids just guess he's just freaking out about it at home."
Green blinked. "Why do people guess that?"
She shrugged again. "They just do. Don't worry about it he'll be back sometime." She walked past Green and sat down in a seat.
Green sighed and went to sit down just as the bell rang. He kept his eyes to the door waiting for the door to open and Red to come in, it never did. He waited for Red everyday thinking he was going to come in the classroom, but he never did. Eventually after the first few days, Green's patience had faded and he stopped staring at the door. Every so often he looked back at the door and wondered where Red had gone and what had happened to him. Every so often the question of how much longer would it be before Red came back.
