The sun gets very bright as I walk over to the bus stop that is across the street from my house. I had sat on the dirty ass seat and waited for the bus, its now 7:20 AM, hopefully I don't be late on my first day at my new school. I pull out my classes sheet I got in the mail, about 2 weeks ago. So apparently I have World History 1st period, in room 404. Look, I don't understand the point of history. Like all we really have to do is look outside and pay attention because what's been going on now, happened in the past. Things repeat so freaking much that there isn't any point in learning the root, because its the same issue coming up. It's just that no one wants to do anything to have a definite solution for the problem, but what do I know I'm only 15.
Guess what. I see these cute boys walking across the street. They are with the same 3 girls from earlier that was at my house talking to Jason. "Oh, hello." Aaliyah said. I shyly wave at her and then get out my money for the bus because I see it coming. As the bus pulled up, 2 people got off. The cute boys and I got on the bus. I looked out the window and saw Aaliyah and her little crew get in a red car.
I paid my 2 pennies then sat down. The driver is a female, she looks like she should be in radio instead of driving a bus. I see this boy who looks about 16, his head is down in his phone. When he looked up from his phone he got up from his spot and let me sit by the window.
"Are you heading to D.H.S." Said The boy. "Who?" I replied. " D.H.S- Dominique High School, are you going there?" He said again. " Um... I think my brother said to never talk to strangers." I said a little nervously. "But you would sit so closely to a stranger though? Yeah, okay. Your brother ain't giving you the right information." The boy had said. I laughed a little and looked out the window. "So you just not going to answer my question or you don't understand the question?" He asks me. "Well if you must know mystery boy, yes I am heading there. Are you?" I said while still looking out the window. He said nothing. I turned to my left and he is just staring at me. "What?" I ask. The boy stares a moment longer and then says, "Do you know how to get there? If not you can tag along with me." I make a confused face and than say, "Why are you so kind to someone you don't know?" He said something so deep, "because we all need a little kindness from a stranger, so we know that there is a little humanity left in the monsters we call humans." We both stare directly in each other eyes, it feels like I'm next to Jason. "Um.... have we met before?" I asked him. "Have we really met anyone before, or are we all just walking in a circle and waving at the same stick figures that's labeled as humans? I don't know." "Ohhhh, you are one of those." I say. He shrugs his shoulders and shakes my hand, "nice to meet you Monica." I shake back but than I realized I never told him my name and he never told me his.
