James took the cup filled with the hot liquid and scanned the room, he looked around and saw an empty table at the corner of the cafe , specifically one of the last , he proceded to sit down has he putted his bag down on the other chair opposite to his and took out is laptop, he then started to work: or at least that's what he wanted the people to think : he was actually watching cat videos and the fact that his seat was located in the corner made it even less obvious ; I mean at least he was putting his best effort to blend in with the people , afterall he was just a Virginian that just arrived to the *Big Apple, what else was he meant to do, he still couldn't believe his luck of getting that scholarship for King's College, all of those years of bullying and sadness in the end really payed of didn't they? He was finally starting a new chapter in his life, he was finally gonna be strong ,he was gonna be his own man, he was-
"Sorry could I sit here? ...All of the tables are full"
His thoughts were interrupted by a slightly chubby girl, she was wearing a yellow shirt which reaveled her tan-skinned shoulders , actually no, they were meant to reveal her shoulders : her big curly brown hair covered them even though she tried to taim them with the ancient technique of "the ponytail".
She was nervously laughing while she was holding a Frappuccino and a Mc bag , trying her best not to make awkward eye contact, James looked at her for a second he was actually surprised to realize that she was almost his height: did she also get bullied for her height? Like him in high school, I mean how could have forgotten all of the "smart" comments his classmates had created based around his most important characteristic "Smurf" "Gnome" "Shorty" "Midget"-
" Uhm sorry did you hear me? "
Oh not again! James quickly nooded with a red face full of embarrassment
"Sorry! I'm so sorry! Uhm- you can sit down I don't mind"he quickly replied, trying his best not to look at the girl while nervously giggling , she thanked him while she took out of the Mc bag a box with the words " Chicken nuggets " on it, then she took about another package a "mc crispy bacon", he then looked away realizing she probably thought he was a creep for looking at her eat
" So what's your name" The girl said breaking the silence as she warmly smilled at James holding one of the chicken nuggets
"uhm ,I'm James"
"Nice to meet ya James , I'm Peggy"
She said giving out her left hand to him, the other still holding her nugget, he quickly shaked her hand and immediately pulled back, accidentally making the mug with his hot chocolate spin around like a ballerina before falling down,
"Oh shoot! "
he immediately putted the cup in its original position, he had lost a good part of it as he had just feed it to table, he took a couple of tissues and placed them on the spot the mug had fallen
"I'm so sorry for being so clumsy I-"
"No it's fine don't worry! Are you from around here? I mean your accent kinda gives it away"
She said giggling.
God damn accent! His plan of fitting in were destroyed, he was destined to be the odd one out forever
"Uhm yea I'm from Virginia...
South America"
"Yea I known where Virginia is! I'm American after all"
She said back at him "so why are you here James? "
"Oh I got a scholarship to kings College, I think you could say I'm a nerd ahaha-"
" NO WAY! "
She quickly exclaimed
"I'm also gonna go to kings College! And my friends are gonna be there too! I can introduce you to them on the first day if you like! "
"That would be nice... "
After a minute of akward silence she started blathering to him about a lot of different things and just like that he started a conversation with a person he barely knew which was actually quite rare for him, he learned a lot about her in the last 10 minutes: she was the youngest daughter of one of the richest man in NY city, she had to sister which she liked to refered to as "the bitch and the cinnamon roll" (her words not Jame's, He would never swear), her favorite color was yellow and she lovedpuppies, the small ones that can fit into a purse.
The conversation was going smoothly, so smoothly that James closed his laptop just so that he could see her better
bzzZZZZzzz
Peggy looked down and took out her phone
"Sorry let me just check what's this" She said with an American accent,
the brown skinned boy looked at her akwadly as she started giggling at the message.
"How is it"
"Oh it's my girlfriend she sended a very funny meme"
