Six Years

Moving on to the next year, the little girl went to school but this time it was in the afternoon. The weather in the afternoon was very much different compared to being in school in the morning. For one thing, it was much hotter and duller in her opinion. However, she managed to pull through the afternoon session despite some major obstacles and made it back into the morning session.

This time around, she was reunited with her friends after one year of separation. How she missed them! They haven’t changed a bit. Still as lively and still the jokesters she once knew 2 years ago. She even shared one of her subjects with the class next door, which her kindergarten friends were in. after a horrible year in the afternoon the year before, she was overjoyed that she no longer had to share a class with unfriendly people and finally being able to be with her friends.
This time around, new subjects were being introduced to them. Confusing, yet, the little girl managed to get a B for her first test. 74/100. Not too bad if she could say so herself. Once she figured out the technique of answering, the rest of the year became less of a struggle and she began to enjoy lessons more. She was top her class that year, something which still surprises her until today. Things were going to be completely different the following years. Competition became fiercer as they competed against each other for better grades.

In the misc of the competition, she made new friends. Some forgotten ones from first year and new ones as well. There was one who taped her mouth shut during second year for talking during class, another who asked if she saw a blurry view early in the morning, fearing that her eye sight had gone bad at such an early age. Another who just transferred in from another city. She was really loud and not to mention has a great sense of humour.

Just like that, six years of the little girl’s childhood had gone and would not be coming back any time soon. Perhaps that little girl was not so little anymore at that time, slowly becoming a teenager and a soon to be very rebellious one as well.
