Bab 3: Ch. 2
Throughout the ride, all I did was just stare out the window and thought about how this school year is gonna be. One day during summer training in volleyball, I saw Alisha, a transferee from a topnotcher elementary school in our city.
Just from that thought alone, I already knew that I won't be an honor student anymore, add Rose in who was the valedictorian last year. and Hannah who was the salutatorian and then... me and I barely made it through last year I can't imagine if I'll survive one quarter of the year.
Speaking of Alisha, I knew Alisha because of my sister who was in the same scholarship as her. One time, during a scholarship interview, there was a talent showcasing, and my sister chose to act in front of the supervisers and the scholars, including Alisha. and it was about a love affair scene. Cherry went back home cringing so hard.
Last year was one of the best years of my life. We were graduating and Rebecca, my closest friend was leaving. She is the one of the best persons in the world. When the whole classroom was against her, I helped her fight and it was worth it. But after that, all of us were okay and that made it more fun for all of us since we were graduating. And after the graduation ceremony, we just cried our heart out because she was going away to one of the best schools in our country.
But I don't know what way this year will be for me or how the others will be considering that we'll start from scratch and enter the.... High School...Life... (Faint celebration) But I'm pretty sure that this year will be a huge emotional roller-coaster for all of us.
"What the? Why is your face frowning?" Cherry said as I was staring out the window, frowning, enclosed by my thoughts and emotions. Then she handed some coins to me " Here, you pay when we get off." Then I had this look on my face that told all my emotions. "Don't try me. You're always shy!" Cherry added. Then Leon called her so she looked at him.
"Oh no! What the hell?! Not me!" I thought as the drop off is getting closer and closer "Leon, get your bags ready, we're getting off!" She said in an encouraging voice.
Meanwhile, I was sitting there with my hands cold. "It doesn't matter! If they judge you, it's okay. They don't even know who you are!" I encouraged my self and pushed the button on my left and on the way out, Igave the coins to the driver and hurriedly went out but as I went down the steps, I tripped and almost fell. Then afterwards I saw a lot of people look at me and heard Cherry shout "You look so stupid!" And then I just stood there and made it look like nothing.
"Yup, there's no way I'll survive this year." I mumbled. "You just knew that?" Cherry replied. Then my eyes widened "You heard that?!" I asked. "You said it yourself." She said with a smurk then pulled a cab over.
And on our second ride, I sat on the window seat to left with Cherry on the adjacent window, and Leon sat in the front because he wanted to. Then, my face became more and more intense but luckily this time, Cherry paid for the cab.
School isn't that far from our second ride, probably around 10 minutes. But right now, I'm not thankful for that. I've never felt more scared before now that I had a failure even before school started.
"Stupid." I mumbled as I changed my seating position as I looked at the building outside. "Very." Cherry said looking at me with a poker face. "WHAT?!" I shouted. "Brother!! You're too noisy!" Leon looked at me and then Cherry hit my head. "Really stupid." She added then everything was silent.
