part three

I awoke the next day to the pleasant sounds of birds outside, the natural light spilling into my room in the most elegant way,and the sound of her mom slowly approaching her room from downstairs before she opened her door "cate I've signed you up to a school not far from here to give you something to do, Cathrine will drive you there if i'm not here, i hope You enjoy it" she said expecting a positive reaction form cate but instead being greeted my annoyed gron "mom im nineteen i thought I finished school back in cali" i mumbled as my mom sat on the foot of my bead " you still have classes to finish and the school i found has them just really hope you can find some joy in it even if you had a negative experience with you last school" my mom said before kissing me on the forehead and heading downstairs. With this information in hand I reluctantly fell out of bed and put my favorite sailor fuku uniform on that a friend imported from Japan for me on my birthday before grabbing my flip phone and heading downstairs.

Once i was cate,upon noticing my uniform, handed me a small pin "i got this for one of my colleges i thought you may like it since it fits your outfit" the pin in question was an authentic N,A,F,C branded one that appeared to be hand-written either way i considered it a welcomed addition to my wardrobe and, after pinning to my uniform, I thanked Cathrine and bolted out the door to head to school. On the way there I stared out the Window at sighs I haven't seen,cafes,boat shops, varying types of houses, all passed in a flash as our small station wagon took a sharp right turn and pulled up to my School,with was smaller then I had thought, while also housing a surprising amount of kids as my mom pulled into the front parking lot. I was able to find my class pretty quickly which was a Given since I was already extremely stressed and nervous just wandering the halls, after introducing myself, i found a dark corner in the back of the room to go and brood in until first period while also observing my class mates of with their was a surprising amount of,23 in total, along with a few others that looked just as nervous as me except they seemed to be suffering from a terminal condition of stress that only got worse when our teacher called for first period. Getting my stuff i headed out the crowded hallway and found that the hallways here were considerably more crowded than my last one as the hall morphed into a loud sea of people all heading in different directions

Luckily i was able to find my classroom relatively quickly as i dove into it and found that classes version of the dark corner,witch was a bean bag situated behind all the other chairs, seemingly crafted for people like us, as i feel into it someone noticed me and decided to come sit next to me "you look new i guess

we can be friends if that is something you would like" she said in a heavy British accent while also fixing the oversized hoodie over her head "is this school accepting of wallflowers or are we a endangered species" i said quietly but she just chuckled at this " your not endangered yet as long as you don't engage in social activity you'll be fine" she said "well then i'll just stay in back until class ends so don't mind me.'' Luckily the class went on without a hitch and was fairly easy since I guess it was the first day back and everyone was still getting acclimated to their new environment. After school i decided to wait outside for a bit not expecting to talk to anyone but somehow the British girl from earlier noticed me and decided to sit next to me "you waiting for someone" i just nodded my head noticing i was more tired than i thought at first "well you want to go to the video store with some of my friends,i'm also waiting for them" she continued as the two of us silently accepted each other's presence. We arrived at the store later that day along with some of the British girls friends from school (who's name i found out to be elizibith) walking in I swear it had every kind of vhs tape you could think of along with an seemingly unlimited stock of cassettes and records along with posters and old cd,s i was in physical media heaven. While i was there i picked up a few records and a vhs copy of gundam wing since it had just come over from japan along with an old beat up one that had the words "SHIN Annapolis rush part II" plastered on it "hey elizabeth you know what Annapolis rush is" i said handing her the old tape "well this is actually the sequel to it and its part two so if you do watch it you'll be kinda confused so I recommend you watch the first one if you can find it" stated elizabeth "aslo the announcement for rush that you probably heard on the radio was actually a rerun" "yes and it took up useful airtime" yelled one of her friends. After paying we headed back to Annapolis and after dropping me off at my house elizabeth handed me her number before driving off into the distance "i guess wallflowers really can make friends" I thought to myself before heading inside to get a much needed rest after a long day.
