Chapter 2: Boy, here I come! one
I spent the summer vacation studying hard and feeling emotional. When I noticed the calendar again, I found that school was about to start. I was full of anticipation for the start of school, and I was longing for the long-lost campus life.
On the first day of school, before the alarm went off, I was already awake, jumped out of bed, put on a white shirt and blue skirt, and pinned a butterfly hairpin in my hair. Back then, I didn't know how to dress myself up, and wasted my best years of youth. Now it's different, I must dress up well and experience myself as a 16-year-old again.
"Wow, are you getting up so early because you're nervous about the first day of school?" Mom had just made breakfast when she saw me dressed neatly. However, I have changed a lot recently, and she has become accustomed to it.
"Dear mother, a new semester brings new hope. I will study hard and try to transfer to St. John's!" I smiled with full of energy, and sitting at the dining table I could smell the fragrance in the air.
Seyo High School is not far from my home. It only takes four bus stops to get there. After dinner, I tidied my appearance in front of the mirror again before going out with my schoolbag.
The September sun was still dazzling. I was waiting for the bus on the roadside with a parasol. At that time, there was no shelter from the wind and rain at the station. There was only a simple sign with several bus routes and driving routes. I put on the headphones and the songs I once loved came into my ears. My vision was still good. This singer became a superstar in the future and hooked up with a very young girl, married and had children.
The name of Seyo High School sparkled in the sun. I took a deep breath to calm my excitement. I would soon meet many familiar people, people I liked and disliked, people I had played with and people I had fallen out with. I had hardly seen them since graduation. Many things are like this. You will miss them because you can't see them. I didn't expect that I would have the opportunity to get along with them again in my lifetime.
I walked into Seyo and everything seemed so familiar. The outside of the school was filled with Phalaenopsis orchids, the walls of the teaching building were brick red, and the classroom doors were painted dark green with the class names written in white paint. I walked to my Grade 1 (3) class with familiarity and most of the students were already there.
"Hello." The fat Li Ming waved at me.
"Hello, Li Ming..." I suddenly covered my mouth. How could I know his name in advance!
"How do you know my name?" Li Ming asked with a smile, and he didn't seem to be too troubled by the reaction. He has always been a fat and happy person, and he doesn't like to use his brain except for eating and drinking.
"Well, it's written in your notebook." I answered with a silly smile, pointing to the book open in front of him.
Li Ming smiled foolishly: "Yes, yes, I didn't even notice it . What's your name?"
"My name is Sakiko, you can just call me Xizi." I walked towards my seat. I remembered that when I first sat here, I was pierced by a nail on the side of the chair. I carefully pried the nail open, determined to avoid the accident that happened that year.
"Wow, Xizi, what a coincidence, you are getting more and more beautiful." I just sat down and heard a familiar female voice calling out enthusiastically.
I raised my head and a sneer rose in my heart. It turned out to be that hypocritical and pretentious Xun Yiran. I regarded her as my best friend back then, but I didn't expect that she didn't regard me as a friend.
"Oh, it's you, what a coincidence." I greeted with a faint smile.
Xun Yiran didn't seem to expect my cold attitude. She sat down next to me and stared at me. Her beautiful big eyes were full of inquiry, but to me, they were all scheming: "Xizi, we went from junior high school classmates to high school classmates. It's really fate."
"Yes, it's fate." I took out the things I needed for registration from my schoolbag one by one, then sat down, not wanting to continue talking to her.
My classmates have arrived one after another. While looking at their enthusiastic faces now, I am thinking about what they will look like in 10 years. It is really more interesting than watching a movie.
Rongrong, the class beauty, married a super rich man 10 years later and became a fat rich woman. The ugly duckling Yueyue, through her own efforts, transformed herself into a great beauty and a best-selling author. Should I build a good relationship with her now so that I can say that she is my good friend in high school?
Wow, there is also the most unexpected couple. The top student and class monitor Sugimu is actually together with a little gangster girl. They even have two children, but their life is rather difficult.
"Hahaha..." I couldn't help laughing when I thought of the scene of them quarreling at the class reunion.
"Psycho!" Shanmu glared at me and said in a low voice.
I looked away and stared at the table. No, I had to hold it in, otherwise they would suspect me and would definitely isolate me as a psychopath. So, I was like a wise man who could predict the future, silently looking at my confused classmates. The feeling was indescribable.
"Xizi..." Xun Yiran called my name hesitantly.
"Stop talking, the teacher is coming soon." I interrupted Xun Yiran beside me and sat down ready to go.
Xun Yiran stared at me with wide eyes. After a while, a middle-aged woman in a black suit walked into the classroom. She was our class teacher, Ms. Ren, whom we called Nun Miejue. She had a chubby round face. She looked very kind when she smiled, but very scary when she was serious. Thinking that she died of esophageal cancer four years later, I couldn't help but feel sad and felt the impermanence of life. For a moment, even my eyes turned red.
"Hello, students. From today on, I will be your homeroom teacher and will accompany you throughout the next three years of your high school life. My name is Ren Yu, Ren means mission, and Yu means rain."
"Hello, Teacher Ren!" I was a little excited and shouted loudly in my seat.
"Hello, student." Teacher Ren was obviously startled by my voice, but still greeted me with a smile.
My face turned red immediately. It was so obvious. My classmates must have thought I was trying to flatter them. Sure enough, wherever I glanced, I saw classmates rolling their eyes.
Just because of my "unique performance" on the first day of school, I was appointed as the study committee member. You should know that the study committee member 10 years ago was Wang Meimei, who had the same name in the English textbook. I always felt that Wang Meimei looked at me differently from then on.
As expected, my deskmate was Xun Yiran. Xun Yiran tried her best to please me every day, either by bringing me delicious food or giving me small gifts. These were so warm and sweet things in my eyes. It was ironic when I thought of her harsh words and deeds towards me in the future, but I didn't want to expose her. I just had to avoid dealing with people like her.
Life in the first year of high school was relatively easy for me to cope with. Although sometimes I would make some mistakes due to my foresight, I could basically justify myself. So after getting used to it as quickly as possible, my goal became to pursue An Yixuan. This was my biggest goal after traveling back in time!
