Been Me

GREG'S POV

So it's typically the first day of the last semester towards a new college life. Is that sentence even correct for an infant? Well, that's not my problem.

So far the years in the past, well they've been nothing but a perfect mix of joy, sadness, mystery, failure, and success.

I literally can't believe it's the first day of the last semester, I've got a few months left before it's time for my graduation.

So down to my personal life, if there's one thing I solely hate. It's my alarm clock, my fucking alarm clock. The strange buzz just hits wrongly, the second thing I hate is my dear school bully. He's never really in my space but he's just at the top of the nerves of other students.

Am I grateful? Yes, I freaking am. Do I like his kind of person? No? I don't know, it's not like I care about others, not in my space.

Thirdly, I just have a strong hatred for early mornings, especially the classes. Might I add I'm a science student?

Believe me, when I say, I never had a slight intention of being here but my parents want a medical doctor. The thing is I have to please them cause I'm their biological son, I'm the firstborn for that matter.

Well, not the firstborn but the first boy. My elder sisters do nothing but text, listen to music, take lots of photos, and gossip with their girlfriends about their annoying boyfriends.

Might I add, they're in college. Even if I had a chance to choose a lady from her grade, I would rather be gay.

It's just 6:30am and I'm still on my bed. I'm trying to create a forced deliberate reason to not attend classes at all.

This is not me. Well, I'll try to find perfect reasons to not ruin my first day, what happened to my usual daily fuel

Forget that, down to my lower personal data. My dad's a company owner and my mom's a good cook.

My older siblings were just above my grade by four years. My elder sisters are non-identical twins.

Altogether we're a family of four kids and both parents. Lucky us.

Okay!!!

I'm finally up on my feet and I'm walking towards my wardrobe. It's still the same, just like before.

I guess I'll try on my black shirt and my black pants. That's mature for a first day, wait what about a nice turnaround?

Like a checked shirt, I'm taking my red and black Burberry long-sleeved shirt. Real mature.

"Greg breakfast waiting for you at the table!!!" Ahh, the sound of my mom's voice in the morning.

All together, let's just say I love black. Oh wait, I forgot to reply, "Okay Mom!!"

I can tell she's smiling, even when I'm not seeing her face. A quick shower for a gentleman now shall we?

Yikes!!! The water's extra cold today, it's not even winter yet. "Can someone turn on the heater from there!? It's freaking freezing here!"

"Watch your words, young man!" My mother is so cautious of the words we make use of. She's just a perfectionist.

"Yes, Mom!" She'll rest sooner or later. The water's better now.

I'm out!

My trousers fit alright, wait for my hair. It's the last year I better make a mark before I leave high school.

Let's try a new style, shall we?

How about a slip or a stand? Alright, I'll go with a simple comb. No cornrows.

I'm set for my classes today at least, we've got chemistry for two whole hours straight.

After that biology class for an hour then history for another hour. Then recess.

What a boring day for me, "Oh Greg your science teacher called, he's looking forward to seeing you at school on your first day. He's also assigning you to a student in your class, you know, to make him catch up with studies and all that. Fun isn't it?"

I don't think she's aware of what fun is exactly, fuck it all. But wait! Who's this kid? I don't think he's new to us.

Oh lord, I pray it's not who I think it is.

EDWARD...

The actual bully, yet shy bully, yet creepy.

Oh no!

I'm just gonna eat peacefully and hope for the best. "Greg, did you hear a word I just said?"

OMG, I forgot to reply, whenever mom sees you're not paying attention or rolling your eyes. She gets a little bit cranky.

"Yep it's a lovely idea, I like it." My sisters can see the extra use of sarcasm in my words.

Time to eat!

They try to hide their giggles but it's too late. I'll try some pancakes and syrup for the morning.

I'll take some muffins and juice later, I pray Mom doesn't catch me cause she's all about the greens.

I don't mean money, I mean actual extra deep greens. The horror!!?

Eww! She made the pancakes with wheat flour, it tasted like wheat bread instead of actual pancakes.

The pain! The terror!

I gulp down a few chews and I'm already losing it in my head. I'll take the juice, please.

Extra eww! It's a veggie smoothie. What a disaster for the first day of the first semester of the last year of high school.

Lord take me now! What are you waiting for?

The funny thing is mom's having this 'it's yummy' face on. That's a lie!

Either way, I've got to run off to school. I know it's a little too early but it's worth it.

At least she'll see it as a good attitude.

It's exactly 7:25am. School starts at 8am. I'm so ready for this.

I'm off!

"Uh, Mom! I think I'll be off now!"

"Nope, you're not, I'm driving you guys to school today!"

What a failed attempt! "Alright, you're the best!"

I'm doomed!

The last point for them all together, I'm a science student from a high school I'm tired of.

Welcome to my world. I'm Greg, Greg Lawson.
