There is one guy, which basically the main of this short story. His name is Carlo Monteiro Aviedo. Carl for short. He is nothing special. At least that's what he thought about himself. Everyday, he would look into the mirror, with a depressed voice he always mutters, "I wonder what it feels like to be famous, to be somebody that is very good-looking, to be somebody that everyone would want to be friend with".
"Heyy!!! It's already 7.30!! Please be faster or we gonna be late to school!" His mom voice shocked him. Suddenly being sucked back into the reality, he whimpered. He quickly glances and look towards the clock that's always been hung up on the wall. "Oh gosh, I really am going to be late today!" He said while running as fast as he could towards the car.
But really, it really is nothing to be surprised about. That's basically what happens in almost every morning. To the point that he thinks that its a routine, and it a must do every day. And so, Carl's life as a form two student started. What's gonna await him in his new beginning? What does fate have in store for him?
The car that his mom drove finally arrived at school. Pretty much like last year, he was late and when he arrived there everybody already stood up and sang the national and school anthems. A little bit embarrassed, he walks to his class and on the way there, he would have to pass through other classes and while he's doing that, everybody would looked at him and that really lowers his confidence because he really doesn't like it if another human stared at him for too long.
Cutting that aside, when he reaches his class, he was pretty happy considering that he could meet his friends, familiar faces and also some new faces he had never seen before. Its a good chance to make some new friends he thought. Anyway, the assembly is over and everyone would lined up and went to their new classes. I hate stairs! He said while some sweat falling from his cheek. Why can't the school build some elevators? That would surely eases everyone. That ridiculous thought always appear on his mind. Although he knew that such thing would always be impossible.
And so, he finally reaches his class. It was somewhere at the back of the school and one could easily say it's pretty isolated from the rest of the school. Everything is so quiet. I like this kind of atmosphere while smiling merrily. Since the class gonna start anytime soon, everybody quickly choose their seatings which gonna be for the rest of the year. Suddenly, he saw a new girl. "She probably just moved here". He said to himself. "She has a very fair and pretty skin, I wonder what's her name is?"
Suddenly, a not so familiar voice rebuked him. A bit startled. Carl quickly looked towards the direction of the voice. It was a girl with a glass and she said something to him but Carl can't really grab what she was saying, probably because of his bad hearings. And so, he just nodded and smile. Then, he looks towards the new girl again not that he realizes that she's going to be very important in the future.
Day 1 ended.
