new friends?

she clicked her tongue and proceeded to take over our entire session with her issues about how this guy was ghosting her and her obsessive love...i wanted so badly to leave. 'why us...seriously...we are just here listening to them from across the room...this girl...heather? has no volume control....' i wrote in the notebook first page.

(note to future self, avoid heather...)

as time went on and dinner time was approaching miss Cassandra finally remembered us and dismissed us... i was little bummed that we didn't get to finish the discussion but at least i got snacks..

i ran off to the dorm room and dropped off my notebook into the dresser. I got dressed into a plain long sleeve black thermal shirt, black and white skull skirt, and black tights, with some madd dog handcuff platform sandals with strap around anckle lace. i pinned my hair up into buns and headed over to dinner.

I sat down in the same spot i sat in during breakfast and ate the chicken patty and pasta salad i grabbed on the way with a biiiig cup of sprite.

as i ate a group of people sat down beside me. all big smiles and laughing cheerfully.

"hi my names frankie! hope you don't mind us sitting here with you."

"my names jay, we usually sit here and we don't mind making new friends!" she said as she slammed her arm around frankie and me.

frankie was almost a foot shorter than me, dark honey brown skin, dark brown eyes, a goatee and mustache combo, and very long mid back length dreads. he had the jamai feel to his dressing. Jay on the other hand was half a foot taller than me and was super pretty with a short chocolate brown hair and golden hues. dark hazelnut skin wore very little makeup and had a speggetti strap white mid driff with jean shorts and black combat boots with a fedora. she was very interesting and sweet.

"hey don't make her uncomfortable jay!" another guy said as he pulled her off of us and sat her down.

"sorry about that they get carried away sometimes. my name is Tramal. its nice to see new people. its been about two months since the last bunch came in so everyone on campus is going to be excited. though word of advice. don't let this place change you."

tramal was a different story from the last two. he towered over me at six foot seven! heck he might even be around six foot ten... but i was not about to ask. he had short shaved hair, small chin beard and mustache that gave a friendly appearance. he radiated professionalism and total friendliness. he wore a plain white v collared shirt and long blue jeans with sneakers.

he was an almond color guy.

"calm down tramal she'll see soon enough, besides most of us here are friendly so long as you avoid all the drama here." jay said as she hugged onto tramal. it seemed to be they have been dating for awhile.

"so how are you liking it here?" frankie chimed in looking up from his food and tying his dreads back.

"it's okay... i don't really know many rules here but im hoping everything goes okay..."

"thats great! and dont worry too much about the rules you'll get there." he said as he finished tying his hair and shoving more food into his mouth.

"oh oh! what trade are you looking into! I'm in business! frankie here is in business too but tranfering into culinary soon! and tramal is in construction!" jay practically crawled onto the table to ask her fedora slanting off to the side.

"well i was thinking culinary...but we'll see." i said as i shied my head down and ate the smallest bites ever.

soon i was done and the discussion turned into what kinds of movies we wanted to see and what events to sign up for on campus. i really wanted to go on the movie trip but id have to wait two weeks to go when probation foe the new people was over. apparently we can't leave campus our first two weeks..bummer...

-----------------------------------------------------------

we all walked out together and said our goodbyes i was so tired an wanted to just shower and sleep.

i walked past the auditorium and walked in through the double glass doors passing through the group of guys and girls hanging out in front.

i felt a tap on my shoulder as i tried walking up the stairs.

"hi!" I ducked out of the pain to my ear. i looked up holding on to my ear and heart like wtf....

my eyes flew wide as i saw heather standing right behind me grinning from ear to ear...
