Story of My Unfortunate Life – Chapters 3 & 4

*Chapter 3
———————–
I woke up with a groan and a yawn, at least there was no one to share my room with or else I would go insane. looking at my alarm clock which said 6:00 AM, APRIL 18th, I gave myself some assurance. I always wanted to wake up early since my damned nervousness makes me extremely scared of showering with people nearby. Using this opportunity, I grabbed my clothes for the day, which included my casual jeans and my special hoodie along with socks and boxers, and went to the showers. luckily, no one else was there, I sighed in relief as I stripped down and went to shower, My natural streak of green hair went in front of my left eye. Sweeping it out of my eye, I started finished up, as I finished getting dressed, other students were pouring in, telling myself that it was about 6:45 AM.

“Well, at least I got some peace and quiet” I said as I went back to my room to finish my other routines of the day, which included brushing my teeth and then my hair, keeping my green streak between my eyes with a small bit of gel. finally done with my personal hygiene, I checked my phone which was more as a watch than an actual phone with how I used it, it said 7:05 AM which meant that it was time to go get breakfast now.

Making my way towards the food court, I saw Jeremie behind me as I got in line, but I didn’t want to say anything to him as to spook him away from me and my love for him.

“Hello Sero, do you like it here?” Jeremie said to me as I was waiting for my food.

“Oh um, hi Jeremie, how are you? It’s decent here.” I said with some fright in my voice, I always hated social interaction, but I decided to suck it up since he could be in love with me and I WON’T let him go.

“Nothing much, do you want to eat with me and the others? I’m sure it’s better than the cold wall.” Jeremie said as Odd and Ulrich waved to the two while the pink-haired girl was focusing on her food.

I thought about this, but decided to agree and come since it will let me know Jeremie and his friends.

“Okay sure, good to know more than just myself at this school here.” I said with a bit of nervousness in my voice.

“Don’t worry, Odd and Ulrich will be nice, just don’t try to crack a joke near Odd.” Jeremie said with a smile and slight blush on his face as he took me to the table with Odd, Ulrich and that girl, Aelita? I can barely remember names, but I pushed my doubts away from my mind as I sat near Jeremie and Aelita.

“So this is the student that made Sissi go mad without even saying a word, I have to say, you know how to push buttons silently!” Aelita said with a face of satisfaction towards me as she was finishing her food.

“Well, lets just say I can use my ignorance of others to my own advantages.” I said with a smug look on myself. Ignoring others was a talent of mine and I believe that girl Sissi is still mad at me for giving her my signature silent rejection.

“Either way, we thought that you could hang out with us. You know, so we can know each other better, just in case something happens.” Ulrich said. Obviously, they all wanted to know me better and I didn’t object. even though I want to be alone, it’s always good to have a friend or two to back me up and it would let me get closer to Jeremie.

“Okay then, even I know that having a friend or two is good.” I said, removing all fear and nervousness from my voice. I finally found a group to hangout with, and even I couldn’t believe the speed at which I did it, usually it took half of a school year for just one person with the exception of the teachers, to know more about me than just my name, and I already have five friends just within the second day of being at this school.

“So now that we told you about us, why not talk about yourself?” Jeremie said. me, Odd, Ulrich, Yumi, Aelita, and of course, Jeremie himself were in Jeremie’s dorm room.
