March 2 Tuesday Year 1
My classes are held every other day.
That gives me two first days.
During yesterday's schedule, I wasn't able to greet anyone (and ended up sitting alone).
Today, I hope to at least sit next to someone!
As I open the door, the class chatter grows louder, making my heart beat crazy.
I should've come earlier, but then again I probably would've been more nervous.
Scanning the room, I debate about where to sit. The middle would be best for meeting others.
I carefully walk up the steps and look at where a group of people are gathered around, taking up the corner of two rows. A couple are my high school mates that I also saw yesterday. It doesn't surprise me since the school is small.
They laugh and share something on their phones.
I have a seat in the row behind them, next to another girl who's busy applying her makeup.
Taking a deep breath, I think about introducing myself.
What's the worst that could happen?
"Um-"
"Annie!" A girl shouts as she enters the room.
"Oh," the girl beside me quickly responds by packing her things and excusing herself to go sit with her friend.
It's okay!
There's always next time.
Besides, I'm not the only one that sits by themselves.
I tuck my hair behind my ears and look down at my notebook.
A girl in front of me laughs again. "I can't believe you of all people got a dog, Taehyung. You yourself are a pet."
I lift my eyes up and see the guy leaning on the desk, making a face as his friends tease him by poking his cheek.
I shouldn't be saying it's just any guy, because it's Kim Taehyung, one of the guys I went to high school with.
He was extremely well liked, always drawing a crowd around him. He was often the center of attention too, since he had a very outgoing personality.
I've had a couple of small interactions with him... of course, I remember them clearly while he probably forgot them already.
They did make me believe his friends just a little bit. Because if I learned anything from Kim Taehyung, it's that he is very forgetful.
His eyes look into mine, making me realize that I'm staring at him.
Oh no!
Frazzled, I look back down at my notebook.
"Gentleman, the desks are for note-taking and not for sitting on." The professor calls him out as he stands at the podium.
"Yes, sir." He bows his head sheepishly before sliding off.
His friend snickers at him.
"Taehyung!" The girl whispers as she scoots to the side, making room for him.
