I was idly sitting on my chair; at the only available desk I had found when I first entered the classroom this morning, the one at the very back.
Not that I was complaining, mind you! No, not at all.
I didn't like being in front, way too close to the teacher. The middle offered one major inconvenience; I would be surrounded by other classmates from all sides, which was not what you'd be willing to go through if you were the second-to-biggest loner of the school. These were the reasons why the desk at the back suited me just fine.
I was not antisocial or anything, it's just that I earned my right to be at this school; an honorable private school that I wouldn't have been able to dream of because of its expensive fee.
But, lucky me, I was a brilliant student.
The communication problem I shared with my classmates might be due to the fact that I was a little younger than them too. Most of them were seventeen or eighteen, whereas I had still to turn sixteen. The fact that I skipped a grade or two may influence their judgment... And then, there was the fact that I actually had a scholarship to be among these snobs.
'So not easy to make friends, ' I inwardly sighed.
'My family isn't poor or anything -my mother is a nurse and my father is a cop. And I've got two brothers; Jeremy, the older one, is now at the local college, studying maths; whereas Jake, my little baby-bro, is in 7th grade.
So yeah, I have a pretty normal life, with a slightly unusual curriculum.
