Chapter 2:
MEETING THE FIRST TIME
RINOA
RRRRIIIIIIINNNNNGGG!!!!!!! My alarm clock alarmed noisily making sure I was up. It read 6:00. My 1st class on my new school starts at 7. I have exactly one hour to prepare.
50 minutes later. I'm ready. I picked up my class schedule on the desk, and grabbed the keys as well. I looked at my room one last time before going out. Questions of anxiety fill my mind. 'What if my new classmates doesn't like me?' 'What if I can't catch up with their lessons and be completely humiliated by the professors?' 'What if other students picked on me?' I always wonder what people think. I'm really not confident.
My class is on the 2nd floor. I made my way to the elevator and waited for it to arrive. While waiting, a couple both wearing yellow stood beside me. The guy whispered something to the lady's ear and then she blushed. I figured it must be one of those mushy words a guy tells a girl to make her fall. Then the guy gave her a quick peck in the cheek before disappearing in the halls. I stood there watching every single move they make and looking like a jealous fool. (Actually, I REALLY am a little bit jealous.. I've been loveless all my life and don't know what it feels like to have a boyfriend.) The girl seems to have noticed it.
"Sorry 'bout that." She said still blushing.
"No, it's okay.. You two make a lovely couple.."
"Really??!! Thanks!!! By the way, I'm Selphie.. You look like you're new here. What's your name?" She asked in a friendly manner.
"I'm Rinoa Heartilly. This is just my first day of class here in Balamb."
The elevator finally arrived. We both stepped forward.
"I see, so where's your first class?"
I got my class schedule in my breast pocket. "History at Room 206."
"Really??!!" She shrieked excitedly. "That's my first class, too!! C'mon, let's go together!!"
After saying those words, I felt relief. Now, I have a friend. atleast. Selphie talked about a lot of things. She's really a very hyper girl and fun to be with. We sat together in class and still kept on chatting. Minutes later, a middle-aged man with glasses carrying a huge map and some books entered the room. Suddenly, all the students went back to their proper seats. The teacher greeted us, and the students, greeted back.. "Good morning, Mr. Maki." The teacher looked strict and serious. After he let us sit down, he began teaching right away. I pulled out my notebook and began taking down notes.
"What are you doing?" Selphie asked confusingly.
"Taking down notes."
"You know, that won't be necessary. History is just one lame subject here in Balamb. Our specialty is fighting so academic subjects aren't really important here. If you're good in fighting, then you're like a varsity here." Selphie explained Ms.-Know-it-All-ly.
"But I'm not good in fighting.." I reasoned. Besides I'm already used to this kind of life.
After 20 minutes of boring lecture, yawning students, and writing notes, a guy with a really long messy hair, ragged outfit, and a cigarette in his hand entered the room rudely.
What an obnoxious guy! I thought. He went to his desk and sat down like there's nobody else in the room. His hair covered almost his entire face. He's not really that bad-looking but with the attitude he's showing something tells me I'm not really gonna like this guy. with his I-don't- care attitude, bad grooming, and even bad-breath. definitely not my type.
"Mr. Leonhart, didn't you know that smoking is not allowed in the campus?
To be continued...
