Eren walks into Ms. Brzenska's math class and as goes to take his seat he notices a few familiar faces from his advisory like Krista, Mikasa, Armin. Other students are new to him. When the bell rang, Ms. Brzenska came into the room. Ms. Brzenska was a short woman with platinum hair and blue eyes. She was wearing glasses, long sleeved dress shirt, and long dress skirt.
"Alright class, before we start, I am Ms. Brzenska and this is my math class. To be more precise we will be learning algebra. Now it's time for roll call". As Ms. Brzenska goes down the list of students, calling out their names, only one student seems to be missing, and that would be Jean Kirschtein. Just as Ms. Brzenska was about to start her lesson, the door open to reveal the missing student.
"You're late Mr. Kirschtein." Ms. Brzenska said not pleased that the first day in the high school year that someone would be 5 minutes late.
"So what if I am, At least I'm here." Jean scoffed as he sat down in his seat behind Armin.
"I expect you to come to class on time next time and you better watch who you're talking to or you will get a detention." Ms. Brzenska was getting to her boiling point.
"You're right, I should respect my elders." Few students snickered at Jean's comment, while Ms. Brzenska didn't take that comment lightly.
"Alright that's it! Jean, you just earned yourself your first detention!" Ms. Brzenska raised her voice. Everyone stood quite for a second while Jean just shrugged it off.
Ms. Brzenska huffed. "Alright class it's time to start learn…" CRUNCH "…ing…"
Everyone looked at the suspect of the crunch. The suspect was none other than Sasha Blouse eating a bag of potato chips. Almost everyone was facepalming.
"Ms. Blouse, I hope you do know that you're not allowed to eat in class." Ms. Brzenska said as she rubs her eyes with her finger and thumb.
"Maybeeee." Sasha said while still eating her chips. Ms. Brzenska then walked up to Sasha, took her chips, and walked back to the board.
"Congratulation Jean, you won't be alone in detention. Sasha will be joining you."
Sasha eyes widen and her jaw dropped.
"Now class shall we begin." Ms. Brzenska said, finally getting to her lesson for today.
Ms. Brzenska's class seem to go well as soon as things settle down and the class seem to be flowing well. When the bell rang, everyone started to pack up and were about to get up and leave the classroom until…
"Before you go class, I need to hand you your homework." Ms. Brzenska said and almost the whole class groaned. When everyone got their homework, they all headed to their next class. Literature and Composition with Ms. Ral was good, in Eren's opinion, and it was all because of the teacher herself. Ms. Ral is a nice teacher and the lesson she was teaching for today made sense. Though she did warn the class that it won't be easy every class, and has high expectation for them when things start to get hard. When the bell rang, ending their second class, everyone went to the cafeteria to get their lunch and sit with the friends they have made today.
Armin and Marco are talking about their love for anime, while Mikasa, sitting next to Armin, is listening to their conversation as she eats her lunch. Krista sitting with a group of girls and a few boys, being bombarded with compliments on how beautiful Krista is, or how a lady like herself shouldn't be in a school like this, that she should be somewhere better. Krista was flattered from their praised. Her eyes were on Eren, seeing him eating lunch alone at the corner of the table near the exit.
"I'll catch up on you guys later, I'll be going somewhere." Krista said as she got up and walked away. She heard a few "see you later" and others "catch you around". As she got near to where Eren sat, he seemed to notice her and did a two-finger solute.
"Do you mind if a sit with you?" Krista asked.
"Knock yourself out." He replied continuing eating his lunch.
As she sat down in front of him, none spoke for about a good two minutes until Eren spoke up.
"Looks like your already popular."
"Looks like it, but kind of gotten used to it. Occasionally gets a bit annoying, but sometimes beats being alone. Why aren't you sitting with other people and try to talk to them?" Krista asked a bit concerned. At first Eren didn't answer looking down at his half-finished lunch. After a minute, he answered.
"I've always had a hard time making friends back in my old school… Hell even with some kids around my neighborhood I had a hard time trying to be friends with…"
"So, you had no friends back then?"
"I did, but those friends won't be friends with you forever…"
'Seems that Eren had lost some friends during the summer maybe' Krista thought. She wanted to ask more, but rather not open some closed wounds he mostly wanted to stay close. So, she didn't ask and try to light up the mood.
"Well lucky for you, consider me your first friend here you made." Krista said with an illuminating smile. Eren smiled back and nodded. As Krista kept talking to Eren, the bell rang, and everyone got up to throw away their lunch and head off to their third class.
Eren's third class was Civics with Mr. Smith. Mr. Smith was a tall, well built, blond, blue eyed teacher. He wore khaki, black dress shoes, white long sleeved dress shirt, and a green tie. Everyone notice how Mr. Smith was very passionate about history. Electives were the last two of their classes. Gym had to be the worst so far because Mr. Shadis made gym feel like a military. Art with Nanaba. She was an alright teacher, really loved art, and not surprised that their first homework was to create art that described themselves. After art, they all went to advisory for 30 minutes before they all went home. When advisory was over, some students stay to talk to friends while others left for home.
Guess which one Eren decided to do. Eren left for home. As soon as he got home, Eren was greeted by his mother.
"Welcome back Eren. How was your first day of school? I hope you made a few friends." She said as she took her eyes off the T.V.
"Well mom, it was alright. And it's the first day of school, don't expect me to make friends fast. If it makes you feel better I did make one friend." Eren said as he heads to the kitchen to make himself a sandwich
"Well that's good." Carla smiles.
As soon as Eren is finish making his sandwich, he heads upstairs.
"If you need me, I'm in my room". Eren said hearing his mom responding "Okay."
Eren sat on his bed eating his sandwich while thinking about how today really went. He admits that it went better than expected. While he knows just because today went well doesn't mean the other days will as well. Everyday has something different in store for you whether you like it or not. He also admit that he was glad that he at least made one friend and hopes that he'll make more along the way, but until then he would focus on school.
That ends that two parter. Thank you for reading so far. Feel free to give this story a review. Until next time ;)
