School Trip
— "Let's go in, guys." - said Ginna, the History teacher, in a somewhat harsh tone of voice. All the students then got on the bus, some slower, others faster. That bus was very noisy, annoying the quieter students, teachers and the bus driver. But, this was predictable. Eighth graders, on the first day of school, going on a school trip; it was obvious that they would make a lot of noise. — "You guys are..." - shouted the bus driver, looking at a notebook — "... eighth year A, right?" - he continued, asking. Most of the students on the bus shouted "yes!", and the driver nodded. — "Everybody is here?" - asked Jullie, the Spanish teacher — "I believe so. They already looked outside, and they didn't find anyone else in this room." - replied Marey, the Geography teacher; Jullie then nodded, sitting in one of the seats on the bus. Every teacher on that bus did the same.
POV: CAROL
Carol then sat in one of the seats in the middle of the bus, placing her yellow backpack on her lap. After a while of looking at the window, a girl decided to sit next to her. Being the first day of school, they both didn't know each other. However, they decided to talk — "Hi. How are you?" - Carol asked. The other girl then looked at her — "Good, what about you?" - replied the other girl, with a slightly different way of speaking — "Well, too. What's your name?" - asked Carol, again — "Keth, what about yours?" - Keth replied, asking. "She looks and feels like a spoiled rich woman." - Carol thought, sighing. — "Mine is Carol. Nice to meet you, Keth!" - Carol replied, extending her arm, wanting a handshake, which was answered.
POV: THATTY
Sitting down in one of the middle seats of the bus, next to another girl, Thatty sighed. “This excursion is going to be chaos.” - she thought, placing her purple backpack at her feet and adjusting her glasses on her face. She took her cell phone out of her pocket and started to use it. She joined some social networks, using up her mobile data, which quickly ran out. Sighing, Thatty decided to take some photos. She entered her cell phone's camera, and saw that the girl next to her was looking at her; not with the head, with the eyes, discreetly. Thatty then looked at the girl, who looked away — "Hi?" - said Thatty; the girl started looking at her — "Hi. Nice to meet you." - said the girl — "A pleasure. Why were you looking at me?" - asked Thatty, with her eyebrow raised — "Oh, I don't know. You seem nice. My name is Julia, yours is...?" - she asked and introduced herself Julia — "Oh, I understand. My name is Thatty." - replied Thatty, looking away and crossing her arms, wanting to pay attention to the noise of the bus.
PO
V: KESS
Stopping at the end of the bus, Kess decided to sit in one of the seats next to it. Deep down, he wanted to sit in the last few seats, but they were already taken. He placed his backpack at his feet, and began to stare at the window as the bus moved along. He wanted to be using his cell phone at that moment, but his parents didn't let him bring it. So, he just sighed and started paying attention to the noise of the bus, until another boy sat next to him. A rather tall, slightly obese boy. He was wearing a cap and a gray hoodie. — "What's up? Is everything okay?" - asked the boy, extending his arm, wanting a handshake, which was answered — "Okay, yes. My n-name is Kess, and what's your name?" - Kess replied, asking, with a little difficulty due to his stuttering — "Daniel. So, do you want to play with me and the people back there? It's a game that only requires a cell phone, don't worry." - Daniel replied, offering entertainment. Kess then smiled — "Of course! C-could be." - Kess replied, still having difficulty speaking. Both then went to the back of the bus, sitting on the floor due to lack of space and starting to play.
POV: ARTHUR
Walking quickly, Arthur sat down in one of the front seats of the bus. He placed his black backpack on his lap and began to stare at the window. Suddenly, another boy sat down next to him. Straight hair, red t-shirt... very tall. A few minutes passed, both of them doing absolutely nothing; until the other boy decides to extend his arm, wanting a handshake, which was responded to. However, no other interactions between the two took place. "Until I get there, I'm going to hate this excursion." - thought Arthur, sighing.
After a long time, a lot of noise and a lot of conversations, the students arrived at the camp. The same teachers and all the teachers got off the bus, some quickly, others slow. — "Come down slowly, guys." - said Amber, the English teacher. But no one seemed to hear her. After a while, everyone was off the bus, and it left, going to pick up students from another room.
Everyone gathered in the middle of what looked like a camp. — "Good morning, everyone! My name is Patrick, and I will be your instructor at this camp. Knowing that today is your first day of class, I would like you to introduce yourselves. Starting from here. State your name and your age, please." - said Patrick, pointing to one of the students there.
