Student Council
alarm sound it’s 4:30 am I get up and put on my new school uniform and prepared to catch my last train ride for the next two years. The now 16-year-old high school junior after summer break is arriving at his new school, home, and job. On the train, he noticed a platinum blonde girl who was wearing their school uniform as he looked around he noticed a lot more people with the uniform. As the train was one stop before I decided to get off and take the bus to get a better understanding of the surrounding city it was a big city that seemed overpopulated for a government-funded school. I found a bus stop that would take him as far as any civilization was allowed to the campus. I walked the remaining 3 miles I noticed that there were no signs that alluded to the fact there was a school.
I arrived at the front gate which was concrete and 8 feet and a metal swing gate as looked through the gate I noticed that same girl from the train and she noticed me and asked me “why where you looking at me did you need something” to which I responded ”No I didn’t need anything” I was stunned I don’t recall making eye contact. I was just standing there and she walked off no words which I’m glad I’m not some conversationalist but I’m here to live a normal high school life. As I made my way to the auditorium to see the entrance ceremony the student council president spoke in a warm welcoming tone but her eyes said she had an ulterior motive.
I arrived at my class to see the only open seat was right next to the same girl I took my seat the teacher hasn’t arrived yet so the student is trying to find friends I’m not particularly searching or anything but friends would be nice I guess I’ll try to be social. As I leave my seat the teacher walk into the room to tell everybody to sit down. “I’m saying this once and once only I’m your teacher ms.forre your only teacher for the next 2 years this is grade b class 4 …. As you should know 4 is the lowest rank you can have you all our trash no better than the dirt outside she”. A black haired stern looking student raised her hand “what” said ms.forre “what do we do about living expenses and how do we get things”.”Good question this school has its own cryptocurrency called witts each witt is the equivalent of one U.S dollar you’ll each start off with 20,000 witt this month witts will be redistributed on the 10th of each month your schooled issued phone is your wallet”.”alright more into detail about your phones before we got off track you phone can only make calls or mail to other devices on the school network; every thing you can imagine the school the stores on the campus got technology, clothes, restaurants, park, hygenic and personal care items”. When she finished her sentence her the bell rang and the class was done for today everybody stormed out of the classroom and went on about their day.
I decided to go to my dorm and relax before exploring my surroundings and purchase some items for my personal care. As I did a lap I found a store that had what I needed as i was checking out some necessities i seen the black haired girl from class she was buying only what was required to survive “hey you can buy better grade things than that,” i said she looked up and said “why to waste money next month money is not guaranteed” she pointed to bin that said free items only 2 a month I thought how can someone blow twenty grand “This is a school where only the strong survive,”. She went to to the checkout line after saying that “I never got your name” she snapped back “i never threw it i’m not interested in allies,” i rolled my eyes and sighed and said “well i just thought it would be nice to at least know my classmate name and mines Livic by the way.”
That night I was on my bed reminiscing the conversation I had with that girl who’s name is Danielle she told me as she exited the store. I was thinking about this is gonna be my life for the next two years. Two weeks pass the class in now into groups of friends and i’m still alone “can’t even make friends you suck as human” I look up to see Danielle standing over me “Well that’s a lot hurtful coming from you who i’ve not seen you talk to a single living creature” i retorted “i’m not exactly looking for friendship” she said. I got up and walked away I didn’t have time for this today I decided to go home early because our lunch is an hour thirty minutes and my dorm is a ten minute walk.
As i exited my building with twenty minutes left of lunch I seen the student council president outside my door she had the look in her eye. As i walked by she grabbed my bicep as i walked by “hold on a minute i’ll give you a pass to class come to my office we need to talk”. I was questioning why was she asking me to her office. “I’ll tell you more when we get closer Livic” she clarified she opened the door to the student council office we walked in she locked the door. I seen a male sitting on the sofa i think she seen me looking at him she explained that was her vice president; as we sat down she said “i’ll get straight to the point we have an opening for secretary, and i would like you to have that position” before she could finish her sentence her vice president interjected “are you serious”. I thought to myself why all these i made sure not excel in anything to avoid things like this happening i just wanted to be average “No, but thank you for the offer” “Your making a mistake Livic listen to me we can get you whatever you could ever desire this school is all about the connections” she said with an angered look in her eyes. “I’ll give you till the end of the day to think on it don’t discuss noting that was said in here with nobody”
