Chap 5: To fit in or not to fit in
Maisha met Brad outside of the Algebra classroom. Her AP bio class went well actually. She'd made some friends in there and wasn't feeling as insecure as before. Now that she was in front of the algebra room she was getting nervous again. She really hated math.
Jenny rushed through the door into the class.
"Have I missed anything?" Jenny asked.
"Other then your brain then no. Opps wait; you never did have one of those did you?" Tiff said snidely while her posse laughed.
"Ignore them." Brad told her as he led her and Maisha to some empty seats in the back row. Maisha was getting tired of them making fun of Jenny and everyone else that weren't up to par to hang with them but she wasn't going to say anything about it right then. She started shooting questions at Jenny about her mission.
"Did you get the captives out safely? Doesn't this town have a police force? Was anyone hurt?"
Brad rolled his eyes at Maisha and said "Of course she got the captives out safely, the town does have police, and nobody was hurt. Isn't that right Jenny?"
"Yeah it is." Jenny answered him back, and then she frowned.
"What is it Jenny?" Brad asked.
"It's just that I feel like I'm overlooking something. Something was funny about the whole thing. It felt staged sort-of."
"Weird. Maybe you're getting tired of it or something?" Maisha suggested.
"She can't get tired of it. She's a robot and therefore programmed to save people." Brad stated quite plainly which made Maisha look embrassed.
Jenny was confused. Why was Brad snapping at Maisha like that? Just a second ago they were talking like they had known each other years and now he was upset about something. Maisha had sensed tension between the 2 friends and decided to let them talk without her interrupting but just then the teacher came in and class begun.
Two periods later, Maisha was trying to figure out where the cafeteria was. She was also searching for her locker. Not looking which way she was turning, she ran into somebody.
"Ouch!" the other person exclaimed.
"Oh I'm so sorry! Are you ok?" Maisha asked him while helping him off the floor.
"Yeah I'm fine." He answered back. Maisha noticed he very pale and he was carrying a Captian Crush lunch box.
"Are you going to the cafeteria? Because I'm new and..." She asked.
"You can follow me there." He told her and she followed him. When they got to the cafeteria, he stopped in the doorways and was staring at something. Maisha peered with caution over his shoulders. Nothing different looking here. She was right. It was a normal cafeteria with tables that had cliques, windows that opened into the school courtyard, and some nasty looking stuff that she wouldn't even feed a pig with. Then she saw where Jenny and Brad where sitting and noticed that the guy she had followed was gaping love struck at Jenny. Interesting, she thought to herself, I've haven't even been here one day and I'm starting to play match maker.
Jenny spotted her after Maisha had gotten her so called lunch and waved while Brad looked very involved with his lunch. Then Maisha spotted some other friends she had made at lots of the other tables. She didn't know who to sit with. One friend she'd made, Renee, had stated to her simply 'Where you sit at lunch determines your status for the rest of your high school career.' Renee was now waving at her from the cheerleader/jock table, along with Quinn at the nerd table, Zoë from the punk table, and others. Maisha started towards Jenny and Brad.
"Hey Jenny, Brad," She said sitting down, "I'm probably going to wonder around the cafeteria a bit so continue straitening stuff out between you two." She jumped right up and went to the cheerleaders/jock table, then the nerds, then the punks, and so on. While she was gone Jenny dove right in.
"Anything bothering you, Brad?"
"For a stuck up kid she really doesn't fit the bill."
"Ha! You're mad because you were wrong about her right?" Jenny figured out.
"Sort-of. I just don't want you two to become close then have her start thinking she's better then you and hurt your feelings." Brad admitted.
"Awww. That's so sweet of you, Brad." Jenny told him.
Maisha returned right then. "So you'll have worked stuff out?" she asked.
"Yeah." Brad told her.
"Would you mind helping me catch up with the Algebra stuff, please? I am so lost in that class." Maisha asked.
"Sure. Meet me after school by your locker and we'll figure it out, ok." Jenny told her.
"Okay, see you then." Maisha told her and walked off.
"What do you think about her now, Brad?" Jenny asked. Brad's response was cut short by the bell.
