Chapter One
A morning to remember...
'driiiiiinnng' the bell rang, finally the godforsaken class has come to an end, I could literally feel my brain going numb from all the input of boring information, it was a mathematics class, and Mrs Sheldon the old slacken math teacher was the one on the board, draining the life out of us in the way she knows best - Mathematics
"Ok, now coming to the side of the polynomial sequence, we can…" Mrs Sheldon continued explaining on the white board, not minding the bell that just rang for the break time
"The bell just rang, du… uhh" someone from the back of the class shouted and the whole class broke into laughter at the words which was in mimick of the way Mrs Sheldon spoke
Must be Jonah, the jokey of the class, but I guess I agree with him this time, Mrs Sheldon was really getting our brain to go into a meltdown with a whole 0ne and the half hour of constant teaching
"Learn your manners jonah" a girl called to him, probably the only one still concentrating on the math class
In a girly voice and a gesture to mimick Shadre who just spoke "Learn your manners …..jonarh?" said the class jokey and everyone broke into the second round of laughter
I sat the far right side of the middle row just waiting for Mrs Sheldon to call off the class since the bell had already rung, the next period was the break time to have lunch but I had other plans, Mrs Sheldon really got to end the class, it's eating into the free time
"Ok, class ends.…., just put down this assignment before you leave the class…"she said as she began to write the assignment down on the board and all been displeased with the assignment broke into a loud noise "argggg… gggg", in show of our displeasure with the assignment,
"she just love her assignments, doesn't she?" I said to the beautiful girl Miranda sitting at my side, trying to start a conversion as the class came to an end, 'an opportunity to shoot my shot'
"you bet it" she replied without even darting an eye towards me
'This is gonna be a long... one' I laughed in my mind, holding back any initial interest I had for her, i shouldn't let a little thing like this get to me, she's probably got her reasons
Pulling myself backwards to talk to Ronald my best friend, looking over Miranda to the next seat where he was, I saw he had already gotten the hand of the situation as he was already looking back at me in a funny expression with his hand on his mouth
"its not that bad…." I tried to tell him in gestures which he failed to decipher, could not say it out loud to avoid Miranda overhearing our conversation, who was sitting in between the both of us
With Mrs Sheldon still writing the assignment down on the board and Miranda sitting between me and Ronald, studiously writing down the assignment and not giving any attention to me nor Ronald who was actively gesturing with our hands and mouth, trying to communicate using sign language that we had no idea of
Mrs Sheldon was done with writing the assignment on the white board and have now sat down back on her seat, already taken a good 15 minutes out of our supposed one hour free and lunch time
The fast students who were following the teacher back to back when she was writing have now finished putting down the assignment on their note and free to leave the class for their lunchtime
"You can go for your free period, the bell had been rung but make sure you finish writing your assignment first before you do that, it may not still be on the board when you come back " Mrs Sheldon said as if it was just now the bell rang, so annoying
Jonah, the jokey of the class and his group were among the first set to leave the class, he probably haven't finished or even started writing the assignment before leaving, that is so like him
Done copying down the assignment, I let myself out of the chair with about 20 minutes now past from the one hour allocation for the free period/ lunch time, Miranda, the beautiful girl who was beside me during the math class had already done with her task of writing down the assignment and have left a while ago, but that wasn't my problem right now, I can always meet her in the next math class
Me and Ronald, my best friend had something we planned for the afternoon, with have now been impacted by the over due maths class by Mrs Sheldon
"You done, bro", Ronald said to me as I was lost in thought with my hands not moving
"no, not yet, just gonna finish up in a bit" I replied, as he looked at me in questioning look
"Ok, done here. Meet outside when you done" he left the class
Only about 5 of us were still in the class finishing up the note, all busy in the task no one would like to remain in class after the lecture is over with Mrs Sheldon still sitting in her desk with her gruesomely wrinkled face staring at the us even now
'ok, done' I lept from my chair as I arranged all my items into my school bag and head out of the class to meet Ronald
"hey, wassup man"
"what took you so long, I have been waiting here all day"
I gave his a look 'all day?', "its just 5 mins you left the class before and here I am, you should blame Mrs sheldon for the delay not me"
"Ok, fuck that, we got to get the stuff now" Ronald say in an imitation to the Mafia boys
"what stuff?" I was now perplexed and looked at him in a total disarray of what he was talking about
"i thought we were going for another hunting for the girls in the cafeteria"
Already leading and walking through the halls of the large school building, I followed behind him, I was the kind of timid but highly intelligent one, while he was the free spirit and a little malicious friend
How we ended up together in the first place, I have no idea, but sticking with him had brought me my first sex, who was the first girl I have ever been with, the kind that accept all or most men but I did not really mind as it changed my virginity status and now I look to him as an access to the girls
"Cafeteria, the fuck?, When did I say we were going to the cafeteria to hit on girl with food in the mouth" Ronald asked and now I felt stupid for having the thought at the first place
