Part One

'Tuuud-tuuuud-tuuud-tuuud', I've always hated the sound of my alarm clock. And didn't I just go to bed!? Sometimes I manage to turn it off in my sleep without even noticing it. Well, that wasn't the case today. And as if it wasn't already cold enough my mum pulled the blanket away.

'Oh Mamaaa! I'm awake. I'm awake!'

'Then stand up Vidya beti. Or do you want to get late on your first day!?'

Oh no! Don't remind me of that. I was searching for my houseshoes with my eyes closed and lumbered to the bathroom while I formed my stroppy hair to a ponytail. Yeah! I was happy that the heater wasn't on; otherwise I would have stopped there to warm myself for another half an hour. When I brushed my teeth I had to think about the upcoming things this day. First day! Indeed! First day in the new college. I would have done anything if I could haven gotten rid of this day. I'm not really flexible in things like that. The college itself isn't that bad. Of course not; after all my little sister is there too although she's four years behind. But! The pupils! Yeah, they're normal pupils like in every other school too; just that they're a little more intelligent. The thing which really scared me is that they knew each other for already 5 years. Five long year. They grew up together. Like one big family. And now I've to accompany them for one year before we've got different courses in the next 12th grade. A knocking at the door brought me back to reality.

'Vidya! Are you ready. Make fast, after all Nimi also has to go.'

Nimi! My only and four years younger sister I have. She, of course, wasn't that excited and also hadn't this bad mood I had, because she had been in her class from the beginning.

'Yeah Mama, I'm ready in five minutes.'

At 7.18 am we both were standing at the bus stop.

'Nimi. I really don't want. I want back to my old class; which is no more.'

'Come on Vidya. See it positve. You get a chance to start again. And you'll get more stuff to learn', she said showing me her mischievous grin.

'Hahaha. You're the joke of today. You know how difficult it'll be for me to settle in there. I'm way too shy. And for most of the people that's the first impression they get of me. And so they think I'm just like that and not different.' I sighed - long and maybe too loud.

'Let them think what they want. I know who you are. And i'm sure once you find friends there, everything is going to be just as easy as the air. Even the study.'

'Of course', Everything is going to be easy. IF I even find friends. Well, I really didn't think so. But I was sure I'd find out soon about it.

'Oh the bus!'

'Too full.'

'No man. It's cold outside here.'

'Look Nimi, you can take this one. But it's definitely too full for me; I'll wait.'

'Uff!'

So we took the third bus to school. And so a new journey began in my life.

Part Two

When we reached the second floor Nimi already sighted some of her friends; so she wished me good luck giving me a so called half-hug. Nice!, left alone. I felt totally isolated seeing all those unfamiliar and nameless faces who seemd to be so happy like never before. I recognized the black board on which the new students could see in which class they landed. I didn't have to search for my name. Mine was the first.

Class 11a - Vidya Walia.

I should have known it. That was my biggest fear till now. To be the only new student in the class. And voil. It was done. I quickly checked the other classes while my anger grew because in each there were atleast two new ones. I went to the secretariat to get to know my room. D 15. I had exactly 15 minutes left to find this horrible room. I didn't know why but I just couldn't happen to find it. Even those strange kids I asked didn't know where it is. How could they NOT know it. After all it's their school. After five minutes I found myself standing in front of D 15. But the door was locked and at the doorplate was the word 'Musical Room' printed. I knew I was wrong but I didn't know where else to go.

'Can I help you somehow?', a man with grey hair and a deep voice stood in front of me all of a sudden.

Uh!?, I didn't know I was looking that confused and helpless.

'Yes! Well, this is my first day here and I can't find my class!'

'I can help you out. Please follow me.'

On the way he explained that every new student would be collected by his teacher at the secretariat. Interesting! Then why did this woman send me through the whole school building. Back at the secretariat he told me to wait and he would let my teacher know. Puntually to the first ringing of the bell my teacher greeted me and led me to my new class. He was tall, bald, about 50-55 years old, but had a really nice smile. A little impishly. Lateron I would come to know that he's also called turtle for some odd reasons. We came closer to the room D 4. The door seemed like the entry to hell for me. He opened the door for me and let me enter first. 25 pairs of eyes were starring at me. I honestly didn't know what to do. When I think about it now I feel a little embarrassed as I must have looked like a stupid statue. Then some kind of miracle happened. I heard someone calling out my name. My first thought was that I must be imagining things. I lowered my gaze and saw a girl with whom I had been in the third grade.

'Miriam!', I let out with a huge relief.

So this first day of mine at the new school was surely not going to be that bad having her at me site. Her friend was still abroad in Greece and would come back in two to three days; so Miriam paid all her attention to me; and so I didn't feel that isolated anymore and it also wasn't bothering me that no one else cared about my presence.

Part Three

The weeks passed by and I hardly had any new contacts. It was about to get cold outside and so I hated the breaks between the lessons. I usually sat down on a bench with a bread in my almost frozen hand observing the schoolyard-life. As hard as I tried, I really couldn't find any of my classmates outside. Well, I could. The boys were standing all together like a big gang next to me. But there wasn't any girl I know. That made me feel even more strange. One day a boy asked me to join him and the other boys. But I just shook my head. If he wants something then he should kindly come. It was of course a mistake of mine. If I would act like this further, I'll be an outsider for all my life long. It wasn't really the situation why I decided that, it was because of the boy why I refused. I really hadn't any super handsome guys in my class. They all looked kind of younger. Maybe it was just some of my silly imaginations; but I really felt like this.

Three weeks later I somehow figured out that the upper school, in which I was, is allowed to stay inside when we've got breaks. Oh! Now it also made sense why I didn't see any girl ouside. But why did no one actually bother to tell me about that!? That was definitely a hopeless case. Better said 'I' was the hopeless case myself. Well, that's what I thougt in the beginning. One month later I had atleast spoken to everyone once. I actually noticed that I really like two girls in my class very much. They were always there to help me and I could follow them withhout them avoiding me somhow because I actually had the feeling to be really clinging. Of course I'd still been careful of what I did. I didn't want to make that fault to come between their close friendship. But when I somehow stood alone they always joined me and I was really thankful to them. With the other girls I got along too, but not as much as with Preeti and Amanda. The thing I had a problem with was still the study. As long as I wouldn't get an insufficient mark in a subject I was safe.

One day I was sitting outside on a bench again - alone of course. It wasn't that cold today. So I decided to leave the classroom to breathe some fresh air instead of listening to my classmates talking about their ex' or current boyfriends. As for me - I never had one. Not that I desired someone at any costs. Every now and then I had some huge crushes on celebrities. Plus my father wasn't that type of 'do-bring-me-my-future-son-in-law-soon-at-this-age.' He was a little strict. Although he had a love marriage; what was in my opinion a big advantage for me upcoming life. Atleast he wasn't like my uncle who sent all my cousin sisters to girls' schools. So I was sitting there watching some small boys playing football. Just then I got the idea of SMSing my bro. I haven't talked this much with him since I returned back home from India. To be honest - he wasn't my actual brother, but my cousin. But as he's 5 yeras older than me and because I've always wanted a big brother I accepted him as one. The first thing you could tell about Sidhu is that he doesn't take anything serious. Of course, when my whole family had been around he did act toally different, like he didn't really know me that good. But after a short time I realized how naughty he actually is. Thanks to the internet that we could keep in touch and our brother-sister-relation got even stronger. I rummaged for my mobile and opened the Motorola. I've often heard people whinging about this mobile phone. But I've always loved swivelling things and since I got it in India the second last time I couldn't disassociate from it. I sent a SMS to Sidhu with the words:

'Hey bro! Hru? I'm almsot one month in this new school now and I'm still feeling too lonely. Of course, here are nice people but I don't think I can make it. I want to die! Miss you.'

I'm famous for my dying-phases. I just did go through thick and thin with my best friend Katrina. We both had a lot in common and that's why we're so close. The days when she felt bad I felt bad too. The days when I had been happy she'd been happy too. And our biggest connection had been that we're both extremely shy, but together we were crazy beyond limits and laugehd all the time. I missed those last years. The study was easy and I had my best friend at my side all the time. And out highlight had been the awesome one-week-trip to London. But since everyone of my class had to go their way, we all got separated. Of course I'm chatting with her all the time. But that's different from what we had before. I felt sad that she couldn't make it to go on my new school. I'm scared of losing her. The vibration of my mobile brought me back to reality. Oh wow! It's seldom that Sidhu sends a message back to me. After all it costs money na. But i'm not mad at him because of that. I know that he has to earn his money himself and I've got my parents to pay the bill. I read the messge:

'Sis, I know you don't know them, but they need you. Pls don't say that you want to die. I miss you soooo much, have fun. Hii, tc. Have a nice day.'

Yes, that's him. Says anything just to encourage me. But somehow it helps everytime. The bell resounded and I just wanted to stand up. But something, or better said someone dettered me to do so. I saw three boys talking together ten metres away from me. I had never seen this one boy before. He didn't seem to have the best clothes in his cupboard but I didn't really care. He wore blue washed-out jeans and a khaki jacket. Cool, we kinda had the same jacket colour. I could even see his amazing smile at this distance. and I melted away. I didn't even feel that it got colder. His hair, .... (to be continued) =)
