As I took a sit next to the girl that I couldn't stand for no apparent reason,I began to hate school and this year more and more.
"Hi",says Tahiti in a tender voice
"Do I know you?",I say acting stupid and avoiding the conversation
"Yeah,we've had a couple classes together in the past",she says as I fake a surprise face.
"Oh didn't notice",I tell her avoiding looking at her.
"Yeah,is nice.."she attempts to tell me as I cut her off.
"Yeah dude,I am not in the mood of talking K!?",I tell her and yet deep inside I kinda feel bad for being a dick to a girl that as Kai said I don't know so well.I shrugged the feeling of and try to concentrate on the class considering it already feels like I am in hell.
"Blah Blah Blah X+Y..blah blah blah",says Ms.Z with a monotone voice as I drift of in her class and wonder when the hell letters got involved with numbers to create math.I start to daydream, thinking how awesome it'll be to seem teammates after class and starting the new rugby season.This will be the year that I can meet sponsors to hook me up with a scholarship.A scholarship that can help me pay for a good University and my parents don't have to struggle so much to do so themselves.Not to mention it will keep me loan free.I keep drifting on how much my life will change once I graduate and and get that scholarship and the endless possibilities.
"RRRRINNNNG!!!!" sounds the bell waking me up from that moment of ecstasy.
I get up and walk out of class with Kai and Q.
"Dude can you believe I got to sit next to that girl for the rest of the year...UGH!!!",I say as I give a big sigh.
Suddenly I hear a voice say "Excuse me If you got something to say please say it to my face!" It was none other than Tahiti with her best friend Lani,who is like Tahiti's shadow and follows her everywhere.She is a short red head with braces matching the color of her hair.
"Oh,trust me I don't have an issue saying it to your face",I say defiantly.
"Oh you think you are all that!!You don't even know me",she says annoyed.
The bickering between us two continues to the point that it reaches M.Z's ear and she peeks through her classroom door.She suddenly approaches us as the argument between us both continues and says in a menacing voice"YOU TWO!!!",as she points at me and Tahiti,"TO THE PRINCIPALS OFFICE WITH ME NOW!!!!!!...the rest of you go to your classes unless you guys want detention too."
Kai and Q look at me as if asking for my consent as if I am The Godfather and they are my henchman.I give them a nod telling them is ok to go.As so does Tahiti with her friend.We both follow Ms.Z to the principals office and I am just praying he is in a good mood and let us go easy.As we enter his office that smell of chewing tobacco hits me like a slap in the face.Principal Lantiff is not much of a socializer nor he is a nice guy.Honestly I consider him a pain in the ass.Ms.Z approaches him in a form that sort of seems flirtatious and he reciprocates.I roll my eyes at the event taking place in front of me.Suddenly,I hear Tahiti's name and mine.We both step into his office and take a seat.I sit with a carefree pose not really trying to care about what is going to take place.She...well she sits in a perfect pose as if she was the queen of etiquette."This girl...sweet baby Jesus help her",I think to myself trying to pay her no mind.
"It has come to my attention that you two were having a verbal argument",says Principal Lantiff in a menacing voice."Well what do you two have to say for yourself?" he continues saying.
"I apologize Principal Lantiff I was out of line and though I didn't start it I will be the bigger person and ask Tane for an apology",states Tahiti to my surprise.
"Your such a kiss-ass",I tell her sizing her up and down.
"TANE! I will not have you cursing in my class nor disrespecting such an example of maturity as Tahiti here".says Principal Lantiff as he frowns.
"Tahiti this is too much to ask but maybe you can be an example to this wanna be rebel and teach her some manners",he says as he points at me."Would you mind partnering with her during Ms.Z's class for projects and such...something good is bound to rub off on her",he tells her while grinning.
Tahiti seems shocked as she was not expecting to be stuck with me and with a soft "Is no problem at all",she replies.I mumble to myself "Kiss-ass" and only she hears me.
"As for you Tane because this is the first day of class I will spare you from having your parents involved in a conference but I will tell Coach Stuart of the incident before us",he says in an authoritative tone.
I just roll my eyes and tell him "Fine".
He dismisses us and as me and her are walking to class she says "Why do you hate me Tane?"
I look at her and keep on walking because I don't even know myself.
