Marie and I entered the building, she gave me a big hug like normal and left me to roam the halls on my own, so she could talk to some of her other friends. I went to my usual spot at the top of the south stairs but instead found a couple of kids a year below me screaming about some sports game nonsense that I’ve never bothered to pay attention to or learn.
Once they noticed me they quieted down like they had been caught all staring at me like deer in headlights. I didn’t bother to figure out why they had this reaction and just left them to finish whatever it was they were talking about. I made my way a couple of halls down to a different staircase that appeared to be empty and sat at the top of that one instead and finished some math homework before class started.
After the first bell rang , an announcement was made over the intercom for all flower buds, which meant the students that were participating in the Flowering Ceremony tomorrow, to go to the auditorium. I made my way there merging with the loud crowd that flooded into the large room like a swarm of bugs all sitting in their respective seat according to number, mine being sixty-four.
I was between two girls who have been best friends since elementary school. Their names were Erin and Savina. Erin had long dark hair that nicely complimented her porcelain looking skin. She commonly choose to wear slacks over the skirt option, unlike Savina, to hide scars and bruises on her legs. She also opted to wear a guys solid light blue hoodie that gave her very androgynous style compared to most other students. I had high respect for her choices and she was also fairly nice to me and someone I considered a mutual friend through Marie.
Savina was much more feminine compared to Erin. even sitting next to her there was a powerful scent of strawberry radiating off of her. She always had her hair up in a curled ponytail on the top of her head and she was always smiling. Though underneath the bright and sunny display she puts up is a cruel manipulative person that most people don’t know about. After watching the friendship between the two girls it’s obvious that Erin is petrified of her and hates when she gets in trouble having to carrying out Savina's bidding.
