"Hey, you wanna group with us?"

It was the popular kids? I kinda guessed that the teacher would just put me in a random group, not that someone would actually invite me to do this project with them.

Chizome-"Um, sure."

I said this quietly and it's seems that they heard me as they sat down next to me around the desk.

And yes I have a great sense of time since there was no working clock and I couldn't pull out my phone.

After that class I had my history class which was my favorite because the teacher was super chill. Then I had lunch and went up to the roof, luckily no-one was there since I didn't feel like socializing too much today. I put my headphones on and stared listening to music while I took a bag of chips that I purchased and just relaxed for a little bit.
