- Trixie?
- Miss Headford?
- Yes, I already corrected your test. You did great as always, so do you remember my proposal for the principal about including you on the mathtletes..
- Yeah.. I said over breathing.
- Well, he said you're more than welcome on it!
- Oh my god, Miss Headford, thank you so much.
- You deserve it, sweetheart. Here...Take your jacket; the first reunion will be tomorrow in the last class.
I could not believe I was in... I put my jacket on and almost at the same time, Stacey finished her test and came to meet me.
- OH MY GOD TRIXX, I CANNOT BELIEVE YOU ARE IN, YES MY BEST FRIEND IS A FUCKING NERD!
Like always, she was loud. Moreover, some people looked at us, and I did not knew what to do with myself.
While she was talking to some others of her friends, I could see Katya leaving the class looking down picking her nails and actually looking worried. Then she left, alone; no one around her that is weird she always have many people around her. Then I asked myself why do I even care? Am I this gossip?
I said goodbye to Stacey, she had to stay in school because she got detention from cheating in the last test, and head up to the bus stop. While I was waiting for the bus, I could see an known face, great... does this girl is following me or something?
- Hey
- Hey! I said somewhat surprised. Was she actually talking to me?
- I've heard you joined the mathtletes, congratulations...
- Oh, thank you. I said as I heard a bus coming but a looked up and I was not the one I supposed to be taking.
- So that's my bus, I see you around Trixie.
In addition, I could not even answer it and she left. She looked sad, I tried not to think about this and got into the bus.
- Mom, I am a mathlete!
- Oh my god, that is great honey I am so proud of you!
I head up to my room, and laid in my bed, thinking what the first reunion is going to be about? Will the team like me? I was wandering until I heard my phone buzz.
Unknown number
- Hey, it's Katya Zamolodchikova, so are you heading to school tomorrow?
What? I haven't even opened it I don't know what to say.
I could her my mom calling me for dinner, so I head down to the kitchen. It was pasta, my favorite!
- So... how my mathlete is feeling?
- I am great mom, I'm just worried if I will get along with the group
- I'm sure you are, baby, why wouldn't you?
I could not even answer her when I felt my phone buzz. Was she again? Is she mad I didn't texted her back yet?
- I am sorry texting you all of nowhere... how you doing? I almost choked on my juice.
- Trix, take care. My mom giggle. What was it? Something going on?
- No, mom it was just Stacey. I said going up to my room.
I think I am going to text her back.
- Hey, Katya, yes I'm heading to school tomorrow, why? And I'm okay how about you? Oh my god do I sound like a fool? Is this a joke?
- ;)
Ok, what the fuck? Did she just send a smiley face? What does that even mean? Maybe she texted the wrong person and now she did not know how to say that to me.
Seeyou there then.
