Day 1- More like day 0

This is strange... Outside isn't even day yet, but my alarm clock went off like a crazy chicken after seeing a fox. I preferred to lay down for five more minutes, but my silence was interrupted by the sound of the rain. Great, just great... The best time of the year has come A.K.A autumn. The only thing wrong about it's the start of the thing we call " school", that name is a disguise no matter what anyone tells me, and the need to wake up at unholy hours.

So here I am... Soaked in rain, waiting for the bus that will take me to my first day in prison. I mean high school, this "prison" is not so big or even glamorous, just like a real basic school. But I never understood why there are bars at the level 0 of the school, I understand on the second level however on level 0 it's like, what are you going to do? Ran away with a book from the library? Going to jump over the 3 meters high fence? Not attending your PE? Seriously ... I never understood that.

The bus is full of the elderly like it's the end of the world. I mean yeah, I understand the kids going into the bus, but some lady just goes to me and says something like:

"You kids should walk to school not take our bus. We worked for those seats for over 30 years"

The only response you can give is silence, I still wonder why this kind of person exists. If you don't like it, then don't do it. It's not like I have a choice! But I will continue the silence until I get off this bus.

After what felt like 5 hours, but it was less than 10 minutes, I finally arrived at my destination. Hundreds of kids in the courtyard and the football field impressed my disoriented eyes. It felt like the hunger games, the ones who get in the building first get to live or be bitten by bees. Everyone had at least one bouquet of colorful flowers, with unique packing. I was embarrassed by myself, the only one there that had the cheapest bouquet (at least I think so), I didn't expect so many people to bring flowers, I thought that it was high school! They don't need them! It's going to wither and be thrown away anyway! But at least I can see my classmates (whom I named classmates of suffering because we are going to go through this pain together). I watched them silently, I am a shy person after all, and opening conversations isn't my thing, and yet ...

"Hello! So you are our classmate?"

No shit Sherlock, I said in my mind "Well yeah..."

"Oh, I see! Nice to meet you! I am April."

"April? Like the month?"

"Umm... Obviously..."

"I am Sara by the way" this is very awkward, in my imagination there was going to be no need for a conversation. But here I am.

"I will see you in class then"

She said that as she walked away to the rest of the class. They were chatting with each other like they were friends before they were even born. I felt embarrassed again, it was like I was an outsider entering their world, their personal space. Then the opening ceremony began, and to cut it short it was very.. Very boring, full of promises that will never be achieved, or if it will be achieved it will be probably after we graduate.

And so, my only goal was born: Survive 4 years of this and get out alive. Nothing could go wrong ... Right ?
