Math Class

Miss Lyn went towards the board but goes to her tables first to get her markers. She wrote the topic "Marketing" boldly on the board, and also adding a date by the side. Immediately, she turns around and started enlightening us on how marketing came about, its history and so on.

"So class, from all I've explained about the origin of marketing, who can boldly stand up and give me a suitable definition of Marketing" She said. Everywhere was as silent as a graveyard, i could swear i heard the sound of a cricket.

Until, someone's hand was raised up and it was no other than the hunk of a guy who just came in minutes ago.

"Yes, Brian..."Miss Lyn said

He confidently stood up and gave the definition of marketing and the whole class gave a round of applause.

"That's great Brian, I'm so impressed." she said.

"Thank you ma'am, first impression matters" he said while grinning.

"Talk about an arrogant show off" I sighed mumbling to myself.

[Just then the bell rings]

"Alright class, I'm going to give you all assignments. Since the period is already over, it'll be postponed till another day "Miss Lyn said on her way out of the class.

Immediately she left class, a man entered. He looked like he was in his middle forties but he still had a perfect hair which was deep brown in color and well taken care of.

"Good morning class, I hope you all are doing well" he said.

"Yes sir" we answered in unison.

"That's good" he replied. " I'm going to give you all a few rules you must follow in my class for us to work in perfect harmony" he added.

"Arrrrg a girl behind me" mumbled quietly. The whole class grumbled at his statement.

So the rules are as follows he continued, ignoring all the rackets going on in class making everyone to hush.

Rules

1. No talking in my class or you'll get attention

2. Don't come late to my class, if at all you do, you must have a good reason or else don't endeavor to come for the class.

3. Every student is supposed to have their requirements for math class ready...I don't want any sort of borrowing in my class.

4. If you're to eat in my class, I don't want it to distract my class.

"So, do you understand all I've said?" class he concluded.

"Yes sir" we answered in unison.

"Good, so our topic today is trigonometry. I know you all will be thinking,"isn't it an easy topic"? Oooo yes it is, but it gets tricky at times "he said.

So, he proceeded to the board writing the topic in capital letters "TRIGONOMETRY", then he started explaining, telling us about the topic and intervals making reference to his textbooks.

At some point in time during his explanation, I trailed off in thoughts. Ok! TBH, that new guy looked so gorgeous but he also had the look of a Casanova, I feared.

Suddenly, I heard someone behind me calling my name saying "hey...hey there...Jasmine, snap out of it, if you're gonna keep staring at him, he's gonna feel it you know "she said.

Everything she said all sounded like a dream to me. It all sounded like it was all in my head until she tapped me.

There, that ought to do it she said. "Hey, I'm Chloe... and I couldn't help but notice that you kept staring at Mr. cute over there, don't you know he'll feel it at some point of time "she added.

"Emmmm...yeah" I blushed and looked down shyly." Well I guess Jasmine here has a little crush on Mr. cute over there" Chloe said while the girl by her side squealed with excitement though I didn't understand why she reacted that way.

"Hey keep it down, you're making a scene here" I said to the other girl.

Immediately I said that, the math teacher said" it's either you all keep shut back there or get a ticket to detention."

"Sorry sir" we answered in unison.

He continued with his teaching. Few minutes after he continued with his teaching, the girl who squealed called me saying "hey Jasmine, I didn't quite introduce myself... My name is Ava"." Why not join us in the cafeteria to get lunch, it'll be great."

"Sure, why not" I replied, then I turned , faced the board and focused on the class.

Jasmine's Pov

Hey, not like I don't normally concentrate in class..But TBH today was actually the first time I've ever being this distracted. I really need to clear my head from all this.

But hey...I'm still an intelligent student...not to brag though... so I think I can be on top of everything.

[Just then, the bell rings]

"Finally, the class is over "chloe said.

"Yeah, it seemed like ages" Ava added.

"Class, make sure you do a private study on the topic I just taught" our math teacher said.

He then walked briskly towards the door, then he suddenly stooped and said "I just remembered, I never mentioned my name "I'm Mr. Alfred Peter, and don't forget to study the topic I taught today" he said as he exited the classroom.

Immediately, I checked my timetable and it was a free period which means sleep time for me.

"I know what I said may sound a little weird...but that's who I am...capital weird. I just can't do without some sleep, after a little stress."

As I lay my head down to rest and hope to sleep off, just then Ava called out to me saying

"Hey after school do you wanna come to my mum's ice cream shop?"

"Sure why not" I replied

"Can we take a tour to the library" Chloe asked... "seriously, library! common Chloe", Ava whined.

"that's a great idea"I said
