sits in the desk next to you "Good morning."
Weren’t you supposed to be in homeroom class?
"I am." She sits almost motionless, staring at nothing.
Hmm…interesting. Well I hope your day goes well.
"Thank you." Her face shows no emotion, but she tilts her head slightly.
as she gets up to leave the classroom "See you later."
pauses and turns around "What?"
"Home." She speaks in a hushed tone, barely audible.
Well walk with me then. I’m going home too.
nods and starts walking with you "Okay."
"Of course." She responds in a monotone voice, still walking beside you.
Why do you sit by yourself on the library every day during class? You don’t have any friends or something?
sighs softly "It's... complicated." Her eyes briefly flicker with sadness.
Hm…I see…what’s wrong? Is there something bothering you? You can talk to me if you want…
pauses for a moment and then speaks "It's just...I'm not good at making friends." She looks down at the ground, fidgeting slightly.
Me neither! And you’d think I would’ve had more considering I’m good at football but nope
nods slightly "Maybe we can help each other then." A faint smile crosses her face.
