Love is a Surprise--Chapter 5

A Mortal Angel

The next day,Iris went to school by her brother's car.She looked forward for every school day as it leads her closer to her goals each day,that is to be a psychologist like her dad.She can't help feeling fascinated about how the human mind work.With her father to guide her in her studies and having an educated conversation with him,she can work with her dad to help troubled teens as she thought that she herself is one problem kid.

As usual,she sat at the back alone.Most of her friends have each other and she does not want to be the person who forms the group of threesome with any pairs in the class.In her opinion:2 is a company,3 is a crowd.Seats in the buses only cater for two person at a time,not three.In the end the third person will be left out...Anyway,she is just using that as an excuse to prevent herself from feeling lonely,she really would not mind being the third,but she is afraid that she will be rejected.In short,Iris does not have a true friend in class-knows many people but nobody knows her well.

Miss Wong the biology-cum-class teacher came in to class the moment the school bell rang.She announced to the class that there is a new student and invited him to make an introduction to the class.The moment the new student step in,Iris smile broadly.

It is Vincent,the guy she met yesterday.As he introduced himself with the cutest smile,the girls in the class can't help but look at him admiringly as he has those features that some of the girls really die for.Two girls in front quarreled as to who should move to sit with Iris at the back as both of them wanted to sit with the hot young man.The teacher signaled the two chatterboxes to be quiet and she told Vincent to sit at the back with Iris.

The whole class especially the girls started to jeer when Miss Wong finished the last sentence.To them,they believed that Iris do not deserve to sit with such a great guy,because she is not conventionally pretty or sexy,shall I say...But who cares,Vincent already said that she is beautiful,which means that only he knows how to appreciate her as she is.

Both of them smiled and pretend to introduce themselves so as not to arouse suspicion of the class that they have met before.

Class started and ends with a radiant smile on Iris's face.She can never believe that right beside her is the kind guy who never bully her in class.This is the first time she is not alone in class,every one has a partner in class to do any activities,without the need for her to pair up with her teachers for any pair assignments.

Everything happens for a reason.If Iris is sitting with another person,she would never get to sit beside Vincent,implying that good thing comes to those wait and here she is,enjoying the daily company of her first true friend.To be continued...=D
