New guy

So, today we are having the meeting at the library like planned. I am walking to the library cause it is not to far from home.

I am thinking about what to say and what to do. Then,think heard someone calling me. i look back, it is .... dylan. What?!

"Hey! Remember me?"
"Of course, you, Dylan. What are you doing here?"
"Study group? You?"
"Same thing."
"Wanna ride?"
"No thanks. It is not that far and i am not comfortable about it."
"Why? We did it before this."
"That is different. I had headache and I couldn't think well nor walked well."
"Are you saying that actually you were using me that time."
"No! I never mean like that. It's hard for you to understand it."
"What is so hard? Explain it. You know English even you are not an English."
"What?! Excuse me Mister, just because i am wearing hijab that does not mean I am not truly English. I was born in Malaysia and my mum is a Malaysian but my dad is Mr England and i grow up here. You have the rights to insult me if you want but remember, you have no rights to judge me being true English or just a typical person who was not born here and stay here. Sir, my dad pay the tax!I don't know why but i regret about riding your motorcycle before this.You should just left me!"

I just leave him. Seriously man! Why are the guys making me mad! I am doing fine until he come by. I am not using him. It is just that, i am sorry to say but I am a Moslem. Please respect me. Why i ride his bike last time? Because i need too, like a must because i have no choice! I am not in a good condition. I need to be home fast not because i am using him. If i am using him, i would be riding his bike rather walking now. Can't he think that? He never met any Moslem before? He never know what we can and how strict we are when it come about being with a boy who is not a part of the family AKA muhrim. We can't touch or talk with our inner or soft tone. We must protect our 'aurat', it is the body part that they can't and not allow to see. Its a whole lot of things about being a Moslem. But, it is for our good and protection.

So, i walk into the library and go to the room that i book earlier. Looks like the guys had arrived.
"Looks like i'm the last one."
"take a sit and we may start now" -L-
"So, lets get it start"

We make the math and discuss everything. We have a time break. Larry and Nyna go the cafe leave me with Peter. I bring my sandwiches along. I offer him some, he take it. I read the math thingy and he just sit there and stare me like... i don't know. Just stare.
"Can you stop staring at me like i'm the ghost"

"Who stare you? i am looking at the boy outside who stare you!"

I turn around, he was right, there is someone staring at me. The room have a door with a glass in the middle of it. So, people outside can see us clearly.

I go outside straight to the boy and i ask him some questions.
"Hey, what are you looking at?"
"Can't you start with a Salaam. Salamualaykum."
"Wa'alaykumussalam. It's nice to actually meet a Moslem. It's been awhile."
"So, i see that both of you are in the same room."
"He is a nice guy. And i will be careful next time. I am sorry if you have any misunderstand but he and me are just friend. In a team for Math quiz."
"I can see that but you must remember. As a Moslem girl, take care of yourself. They said, women is the fitnah of the world. I mean the Moslem girls. They humiliate you people then the men. I don't want to see you being forget about being a true Moslem. Keep yourself the right faith."
"Thank you for your advise. I will try my best to always be careful. I got some discussion to do. Salamualaykum."
"Wa'alaykumussalam."

So, i walk back to the room.
"Hey, what did he said?"
"He told me to be careful and i cannot trust you."
"Hey! Did he know me?"
"No. And i am done with this conversation. Where is the couple? We need to continue. I have my Zohor prayer after this."
"Zohor prayer?"
"Can you google about Moslem? If you want to know about it."
"I always wonder, why you always wear scarf?"
"For Allah's name, just google it. FYI, not for fashion."

Nyna and Larry knock the door and they enter.

"Sorry we're late."-N-
"Let's just continue."-S-

We continue and finish our meeting about 2pm and i walk home. Nyna and Larry insist to walk me home but i just said, i can take care of myself.

As i walk, i realize someone is following me. As i turn back, that guy just act like he is not following me. Then i run, he run too. I hide and wait for him in a junction, i see him searching for someone.

He is about my age, tall, with grey eyes and his face match an Asian face. I mean, he look Asian. Like a korean person but he had a round eyes. He is cute. But like the man said, i have to be careful. I ran home.

The next day, something great happen. As i close my locker, i see the Asian boy is staring at me from the direction opposite of my locker. I just stun. I walk away as fast as i can. I am scared. I never met him before. Now he is here, in my school and stare at me with his adorable face. I am so out from here.
"Hey! Wait! We need to talk."
"Who are you and why are you following me yesterday?"
"I am sorry to follow you but we need to talk."
"Why? Are you new? I never saw you before."
"No, i am not new but you just never notice me before. We are in the same Drama class."
"We are? Oh, i am sorry about that but if you are the people who want me in the drama, i am not interested."
"No, i am not. Can we go to the cafe and talk?"
"I have class now. Can we talk later? If you really need it."
"I really need it. After this is the drama class so i need you to sit next to me. It is so important. Please."
"Oh, fine. Save me a sit. I got to go."

I walk to my Chemistry class. Surprise me, Peter is back as my partner.
"What brings you back here?"
"I have no choice."
"You have a choice. Frake is free and solo."
"I rather work with you then him. He is gay! I can't work with gay man."
"What ever. Just help me with the reports."

We do the experiments. Suddenly Peter crack the silence.
"So, who is the Asian boy?"
"It is non of your business. And what makes you talk to me?"
"Is it against the law?"
"My friend once said that you never talk to any girls in the school ever the popular kids. There must be something makes you wanna talk to me."
"Maybe because your locker is beside me and you drag me into things that i hate. You are the head of the Olympian Team, and you are my partner for this class."
"I know that but you are asking my social business not about any of that."
"I am just curious. He followed you yesterday."
"Are you following me yesterday?" (that makes me stop doing my work)
"Miss Serena, you better stop arguing with your boyfriend and continue your work. I need your reports today or you fail the next test" -Mr Teck-
"I'm sorry, Mr Teck and he is not my boyfriend." "Peter, we are not finish."

Can you imagine? Why this cute guys following me? I mean, why? I never experience anything like this. Something must be piece together and i am going to find out why.
