I stormed out of class in a wave of anger,sadness and,hatred all at the same time.I rushed to the nearest girl’s bathroom and when I got there,there were two girls putting on lip gloss and doing their makeup.When they saw me they immediately gasped.They quickly ran out of there and I dropped to my knees.I started crying profusely and I cried for so long,the bell already rang.But I didn’t want to show my face.Not to Pamela,Oscar or just anyone.
I stood up and went to the sink to wash my face.I stared at myself in the mirror.’What’s wrong with me?Why can’t I stand up for myself?Why do they do this to me?Why me?’those thoughts ran through my head.I took some deep breaths and headed back out to the corridors.
I realised I left my bag in first period so I went to go get it.Before I walked into the room,I heard screaming and yelling from Miss Rogue and carelessness from Pamela.
’What’s going on?’I thought.I knocked on the door and opened it.Miss Rogue turned to face me and Pamela texted on her phone.
I said to Miss Rogue and she nodded.I went to my seat and grabbed my bag.As I was leaving Miss Rogue asked me,”Brenda,I need to see you.”Then she turned to Pamela,”Pamela you can leave.”she said to Pamela.Pamela sashayed out the door as if it were a runway.
I walked to the front where Miss Rogue’s table was.I stood there nervously,trying not to make eye contact.
”Brenda,I’m sorry for Pamela’s actions and words before.I know it’s a sensitive topic.”she said to me and I nodded.”If there is any problem,feel free to ask me.You may go now.”I waved goodbye to her and exited the classroom.
Many people stared at me but I didn’t care at that point.I walked through the gardens of the school since there was still 10 minutes before Math class.The gardens always calmed me down.The bright colours of flowers,their sweet aroma and how relaxed you feel in its presence.I sat down on a bench and stared at the skies.
”Hey!” a voice boomed behind me.I whip my head around and see Oscar running towards me.I stood up from the bench and watched as he hurled towards me.He finally caught up with me and when he did,he started panting.
”Where have you been?I searched everywhere.Well,....not the girl’s bathroom or the janitors closet but still.”he asked me.I looked at him up and down.He had dirty blonde hair,sapphire eyes and everything about him was amazing.
The bell rang and all the students outside headed inside.I walked past Oscar and proceeded to walk into the school.
”Hey!Where are you going?You’re supposed to show me where my Math class is.”Oscar asked me a second time.
I turned to face him and I motioned him to follow me.He looked puzzled at first but then understood.Just walking beside him in the corridors just made me feel queasy.I felt attracted to him somehow.
~Oscar’s P.O.V~
I followed Brenda through the halls in complete silence.She said nothing to me the entire time too.We walked through the school but whilst the entire place looked like a labyrinth to me but she knew her way like any other.We finally reached a classroom.
She went inside and and I followed along.The class already started so when we walked in everyone stared at us.
”Ahh,Miss Brenda.Nice if you to join us.What is the excuse?” a tall man said and crossed his arms.
”S-sir,it’s my fault.”I interrupted.Now The teacher turned to me,scanning me up and down.He finally said,”So,you were off engaging in some romantic activity.I know you’re young and your hormones are out of wack so don’t make a commitment just yet.”Th class laughed their heads off and Brenda’s face turned from a pale white to a red rosy hue in seconds.I too blushed as the classroom roared with laughter.
”Uh...n-no.I-I’m n-n-new here.S-she was showing m-me around.”I awkwardly said.
”Well,then.Take a seat.”The teacher said so carelessly I could just die.Brenda and I sat down as far apart as we could but I could still hear chucking and giggling from everyone.
The rest off school just flew by in a breeze.Everyone either headed home or headed to the mall.As I walked out the school,I saw Brenda walking by herself.I ran over to her and asked,”You walking home?Let me accompany you.”No answer.Just a nod.
As we were walking,I felt somewhat nervous around her.Not because of what happened with the teacher today but because I felt something for her.Something I couldn’t put my finger on.
When we finally arrived at Brenda’s house,I realised her house was nothing like I expected.For such a quiet girl,I thought she would have a small villa or something.Her house was very modern and incredibly large.Flowers bloomed left and right with bright colours.
”You must have a really big family.Well since you have such a big house,ya know.”I said to her,still looking at the house.
No answer again.Just a shrug.We said our goodbyes and I left.But I felt something again as I left her there.But this was something like sadness,like I missed her.A thought haunted my mind for the rest of the day.Am I falling in love with her?
