I turned and rolled in bed,my mind filled with tumbles and questions ,
how had mother known, she knew I lied, that look she gave me , clearly spelt it out for me, but how did she know , maybe she was a God
Nah..., She would've ended me by now, if she was
As my eyes began to twitch, I exhaustedly opened my eyes, rubbing them ,as I perked my ears to receive one of the most annoying sounds know to man
Just mere moments after opening my eyes , my alarm rung
Sluggisly, I sat up, adjusting my legs to the other side , disturbingly enough I have gotten used to my alarm schedule
Maybe that's just one of the things that made yesterday's occurrence all the more weird.
Finally getting off bed, I headed off to the bathroom, got freshened up, and wore my sleek, elegant school wear
Made sense if the uniform was so exquisite, I mean the school was expensive
With a grumbling belly, I headed over to the kitchen, there meeting my sister , looking at her for a while before
Finally summoning up courage, I approached her trying to apologise , and maybe try to explain
Walking up to her, stretching my hand nervously to tap her, before my hands could brush against her shoulders ,she turned ,her gaze lowered to the plate she was holding, which was pressed against her school sweat shirt and she walked past me, her face straight ahead , avoiding my gaze
With my eyes following her steps as she left the kitchen, I couldn't help letting out a sigh, yep she was avoiding me
Walking over to the dining table, lightly taking off my bag and hungrily taking up some butter and smearing it over my bagle, gently gnawing at the texture, hmm
I couldn't ask mother for money again, does that mean I'll walk again to school, with a groan ,I adjusted my bag strap unzipping the zipper and taking some credits before heaving it up and leaving
Entering the train, I felt calmer, the weather was delightfully dim and the train barely had people on board, except for what happened this morning I'd say today will be a rather nice day, it wouldn't hurt to be optimistic for once
Looking out of the window, enjoying the frosty draft, nodding my head to the serenity, and the overly quietness but my peace wasn't enjoyed for long ,
Suddenly the sky began to quiver and crack, rumbling
Ugh, curses....
This is what being optimistic gets you, desolation
As the water droplets began dripping, I knew it was only a matter of time, before they start falling like hailstones and a bit lucky for me, they were arriving at my stop
Today might've turned out to be a bit of a bad day and it had even barely begun , but one thing I'm not standing for is my bag getting wet
So immediately, the train came to a stop ,I bolted , tucking my bag under my school sweatshirt
I wasn't what one , would call an athlete but I'd do anything to avoid the grimy feeling of the rain
And as I ran through the gate and inside the classes,I could feel the mushy liquid beneath my shoe soles
Hurriedly , I ran through the halls, panting with each step, huffing and puffing all the way, then quickly coming to a halt on reaching my class.
Luckily only a few number of people had been in class and our homeroom teacher apparently hadn't arrived
Dum dum
I dashed my feet gently against the door frame and let myself in having my seat at my usual position
not long after , our teacher arrived and began with her lesson,as time went by more and more students began arriving , some in group, while others individually and before the teacher could be done with her Lesson the entire class was filled up
Well apart from a few open seats, I say this emphasizing the few, meaning they were barely anyone left
Soon after, the teacher concluded the lesson,and as we were about to be dismissed, that was when we heard it
Fast pacing footsteps down the hall, swiftly turning into rushed footsteps and at a point we all had our ears perked up to receive this anonymous late comer
These rushed footsteps quickly and quietly transforming into unheard footsteps which could heard once in every two seconds
These steps creating a rhythm, a rushed tune, then slowly and quietly this rhythm soon died down
Shortly followed by the silhouetted figure of a man, who on approaching the class, dashed his feet against the floor boards and lowered his head to enter the class
The students , including myself stared at the figure
The teacher soon presented the stranger as a new student and suggested he introduced himself to us, and as we lifted our head in anticipation on what we would hear , we we're soon greeted with one of the most feminine voice to grace the planet earth
Now, I wouldn't lie, even I was shocked and I could tell most of them were too, and as he continued speaking, uncomfortable glances were being shot his way
.. and suddenly, I started feeling bad for him , I mean it's like to be looked at in that way, and it wasn't a lovable feeling
And that was until, the stranger curved his lips in a smirk, with his gaze still fixed to the class, he then let out a chuckle and continued
"Do you really think I'll deterred by the dumb looks you shoot my way, i- meliana haruna, came here for one thing, to achieve the goal , I set up for, you know my people have this saying
As he proceeded
, I could feel my head on my palms, lowered in his embarrassment, then clearing his throat, he continued
I won't say much, who is the highest in this level, silence soon ensued the entire class, he asked again,and this time, most people turned to my direction
Not to be boastful but yes I was the highest and that level, he looked on taking the initiative and smirked, with his eyes focused at me
He spoke out, I'm sorry to say, but that title, enjoy it while you can, cause you won't have it for long
My fingers twitched as I glared him down, while he continued his rant, I decided I didn't like this Melina haruna very much, in other words, I detested him,it took him a couple of minutes to introduce himself and he has already gained an enemy
At the end of his overly annoying introduction which I was sure that the teacher who asked him to introduce himself, regretted it
He revealed something which cleared a thing for me and shocked the class
In case , you're wondering, I'm a girl , you damn bigots
