Chapter 3

New Student

The week had passed by quickly. Tea's dad had Tea's dad had gotten himself a new car and found a way to get to his job. Tea's mom spent most of the week finding a daycare for Jakey and a job for herself since she was forced to quit her old job. She found a daycare for Jakey on Thursday and a job on Friday. Tea on the other hand had spent most of her time either looking out the window, the ceiling or writing a letter to Heather. Tea hardly ever came out of her room.

Well as soon as the week passed by Tea was given a school uniform. It had a pink jacket a short blue skirt and a white shirt with a blue bow tie collar on it and there were blue shoes that was needed to be worn. It looked quite nice and different from the school uniforms that Tea seen worn in America. She would usually wear her black shirt and jeans to school since she went to a public school nearly all her life, but now she went to a private school and of course like her dad said things were going to change.

"I'm not wearing that." Said Tea crossing her arms and giving a pouting look towards her mom.

Tea's mom had gotten up early to wash Tea's uniform and had it in her hands. Tea and her mom were in Tea's room. Tea wore black pajamas. Her mom wore a long red robe that only showed her pink pajama top underneath with red slippers.

"Tea this is one of the school's rules. You have to wear this uniform." Said Tea's mom.

Tea shakes her head at the uniform.

"Come on you have to put this on and get ready for school." Said Tea's mom placing a hand on Tea's shoulder.

Tea's mom left the uniform on Tea's bed and turns her back to walk out the door.

"Who knows maybe you'll make some friends." Said Tea's mom who walked out of the room and close the door behind her.

"But I don't want any friend! Yelled Tea who seemed to yell at the door rather than her mom.

Why does no one care about what I want? Thought Tea.

Tea's parents were downstairs eating breakfast downstairs and Tea came down in her school uniform. Tea's parents look up at their daughter and smile. Jakey was in in a high chair laughing.

"Tea that uniform makes you look so beautiful." Said Tea's mom.

"I think you look very business like." Said Tea's dad.

"Thanks." Said Tea.

Tea went to get herself a glass of water from the fridge. Tea took her seat next to Jakey. Her mom eyed Tea with worry in her eyes.

"Tea I understand that your upset about moving and all, but you got to eat something." Said Tea's mom.

"I'm not hungry." Said Tea.

"Tea you've been saying that all week." Said Tea's dad.

"I'm not hungry." Said Tea.

"Tea you do need to eat." Said Tea's mom.

"I'll eat when I get to the school." Said Tea.

Tea's parents just nod their heads.

"Good cause I made your lunch." Said Tea's mom taking out a brown bag that appeared full.

"Thanks." Said Tea taking the brown bag filled of food from her mom.

"I better leave I don't want to be late to work." Said Tea's dad who got up from his seat.

Tea's dad kissed Jakey then Tea's mom and he tried to kiss Tea but Tea ducked from the kiss. Tea's dad looked hurt from the rejection and just shook his head.

"I'll see you all later." Said Tea's dad.

He grabbed his bag and left. Tea's mom picks up Jakey and his bag full of toys, diapers, and food.

"I'm taking Jakey to daycare it shouldn't be too far. Do you mind walking to school by yourself?" Asked Tea's mom.

"Mom I've been going to school since I was thirteen years old." Said Tea.

"That was because we live close to the school." Said Tea's mom.

"This school is close by." Said Tea.

"Okay if you say so sweetie." Said Tea's mom.

Tea's mom picks up Jakey and his things and comes over and kisses Tea.

"This is my first day of work so wish me luck and Tea…"

Tea looks up at her mom was near the door to exit.

"Please don't be too hard on your dad. Remember it was a hard choice for him too. He had to leave some of his friends behind too." Said Tea's mom who walked out the door with Jakey starting to drift to sleep.

Tea just sighs and let a tear fall from her pale face.

Yeah, but my best friend was backed there and my grandma's grave. I promise myself to never leave New York. Thought Tea.

Tea got up and put her glass of water in the dishwasher. She got her book bag that hung on a strap. She then headed out the door and locked the door. Tea started walking down the street to school. Her parents had told where it was and that it was only two blocks away. Tea sighs and still continues down the street with her head down. The sun was still rising into the sky.

I really wish I never move here. Thought Tea.

Tea then walked right into someone knocking both of them down. Tea rubbed her head with her hand and got up.

"I'm sorry about that." Said Tea getting up.

"That's fine." Said a childlike voice.

Tea looks down and sees a boy with star hair the colors are blonde purple and black. His eyes are big violet. He wore a blue jacket and blue pants. He had light skin color. He had a white shirt. Tea reaches down and helps the boy up. Tea reaches down and helps him up. The boy was a couple inches shorter than her.

"Thanks." Said the childlike boy.

Tea just nod and heads down the road to her school.

I guess she's the new here. Thought Yugi.

/She seems kind of sad./ Said a strong voice who look like boy with wide eyes only taller with purple sharp eyes and he was see through.

/Yeah. Well I better get to school./ Said the boy with wide eyes through the mind link.

The boy headed the same way Tea was heading.

Tea arrived at Domino High. She first went to the office to see what classes she would go to. Tea exits the office and is greeted by crowd of students who were either talking in halls with friends or on cell phones, joking around, heading to their classes, or getting their things from their locker. Tea looks down at the sheet and notices that her first class is Calculus. The bell finally rings and everyone either ran or walk to their classes leaving the hallway empty. Tea continues down the hallway in search for the class room 209. Tea read the number until she found the door and she took a deep breath.

Why am I so nervous? Sure I'm in a new school. But I shouldn't be nervous. Thought Tea.

While in the class room three boys sat in the class room. One boy had dirty blonde hair and big brown eyes. The boy next to him was a boy with brown hair and brown eyes. There was boy with big violet eyes and star shape hair with blonde, purple, and black. He appeared shorter than the other two boys. The boys sat at their desk of course Tristan stand and watch the short star shape hair with three different colors and the dirty blonde play a game of Duel Monsters.

"It's your move Joey." Said tricolor star shape boy.

"Alright beat this." Said Joey placing the Flame Swords Man in Attack mode.

"That seems like a good move against Kuriboh." Said the brown head.

"It's good, but not good enough." Said the tricolor hair.

"Awww man I lost to you again, Yugi." Said Joey.

"I wonder how you came in runner up in Duelist Kingdom last time." Said the brown head.

"Shut it, Tristan." Said Joey.

"Hey do you guys know where Bakura is?" Asked Tristan.

"Last I heard he said he had important business to attend to." Said Yugi.

"When did you talk to him?" Asked Joey.

"Over the phone this morning." Said Yugi.

"He always seemed busy of late." Said Tristan

"Attention class." Said a man's voice.

Making everyone turn or return to their seat. Yugi was behind Joey. Tristan was in front of an empty desk.

"Attention class we have a new student with us today from America." Said the man's voice.

Joey lean over so only Tristan and Yugi can hear.

"Not another American. From what we've seen the Americans we've encounter are either know it alls or jerks." Said Joey.

"Don't be that way Joey. Most of them were nice. Who knows this one might be nice to." Said Yugi.

They return their attention to the front of the class.

"I like for you all to be nice to Tea Gardner." Said the man.

Tea comes into view. She looks at the class with no emotion in her face.

The girl from this morning. Thought Yugi.

"Tea sit right behind Tristan next to Yugi." Said the teacher pointing at the seat were Yugi, Joey, and Tristan are.

"I want you to make Tea feel welcome." Said the man's voice.

Tea took a seat behind Tristan. She looks down at the desk and a tear slips on her desk.
