Maeve

I woke up with a yawn the next morning and I got up to wash my face in the bathroom and when I returned to the bedroom to check the time, I screamed, "I'm going to be late!" I rushed to take my bath and run out to take my clothes for the day. Black ripped jeans paired with a white cropped top.

I yanked a black jacket from one of the hangers and hopped on one leg as I put on my white Nike sneakers. I had no time to comb my hair or style it, so I simply tugged it out of the bun it was in and roughly combed my fingers through it. I grabbed my backpack and packed my essentials in it before rushing to school.

I barely made it to class before the bell rang for the beginning of school. I made my way to my seat and arranged my books on the table. The first class I have is English and soon enough, the door opened and the lecturer walked into the room.

"Okay class, good morning, I hope your night was great." Everyone excluding me, responded to his greeting. He smiled and asked the ultimate question of all, "That's good, so where did we end the other day?"

A certain girl I didn't bother to learn her name but came to know her as 'the teachers pet' responded and he continued the lesson from he left off.

Soon enough the lesson was over and I got up to pack my books and move to my next class when the lecturer called out to me, "Maeve, may I see you for a moment?"

I froze and turned my head around to look at him. I think the look was too intense since he flinched, so I toned down on the glare as I walked to him as soon as the class was empty. I simply stared at him as he looked at me. When he still wasn't talking, I sighed and asked,

"You wanted to see me sir?" He blinked and coughed out his trance, "Oh yes, yes sorry...Maeve, I wanted to see you to tell you about these new transfer students that have been sent to our school from our sibling school."

I arched a brow," And how does that concern me?" He cleared his throat," I um, I want you to be their tour guide and show them things about the school."

Silence...more silence...pregnant silence...infinite silence...and I blinked. Did I forget to say that our English lecturer is also our vice principal. I breathed, "Mr.Ramirez..." He visibly flinched...hmm, maybe this is the first time I've actually bothered to mention someone's name in this school...who cares anyways, I continued, "...I don't understand how you skipped everyone else just to pick me to be a tour guide for a bunch of people I've never met before."

He stammered," W-well y-you know how the people in this school are. They follow people for the looks and wealth. I don't want these people to be treated like that, that's why I picked you, because you're not like the others." I stared at him for a moment and when he was about to explain himself again, I asked, "Okay, when are they coming?"

He paused in his quest to speak and asked dumbfounded,"Huh?" I rolled my eyes," I said when are they coming?" He checked his watch,"In about 30 minutes, they should be here by 8:30am and its already 8 soo...yeah." I nodded and took my backpack,"I'll meet them in your office at 9 after my class." And I walked out to my class.
