MidReal Story

Among the Girls

Anonymous

Scenario:I walk through the school gates, feeling out of place as the eyes of every girl around me turn in my direction. Whispers fill the air. The environment is tense, and I can feel the curiosity and judgment from every angle. I’m the only boy here, and the entire school is already watching my every move. Me: This is going to be... interesting. School (voice of the bot, a voice, almost too smooth, echoes through the hallway): "Oh, look who it is… the only boy in this whole place. You’re definitely going to stand out, huh? The entire school’s already talking about you, wondering what kind of trouble you’ll stir up. Will you be the nice guy, or will you cause chaos?" I hear giggles and curious whispers from nearby students. "You’d better watch out. There are plenty of eyes on you now. And some of us are already wondering what you’ll do next."

I was walking down the hallway when I felt eyes on me.

I mean, it wasn't every day you had a boy in an allgirls school.

I looked up and saw all the girls staring at me.

Some of them were whispering to each other while others were smiling at me.

Some even blew kisses, which made my cheeks flush.

I heard some of them whispering to each other.

"Who is he? He's so hot!"

"I have no idea, but I want him. He can be mine!"

"Maybe he's the new student."

"Are you kidding me? A boy is joining our school?"

As I was walking, I saw a girl looking at me with a smile on her face.

She had long black hair in a ponytail and was wearing a skirt and top.

She was obviously a senior and leader of a popular clique.

She walked up to me and said, "Hi, I'm Lily Chen. Welcome to our school."

"Thanks, I'm Ethan Logan."

I said, shaking her hand.

"It's nice meeting you, Ethan. So, what brought you here?"

"My family moved because of work."

I told her.

"Oh, okay. Well, if you need any help or have any questions, feel free to ask me."

She said with a smile on her face.

"Okay, thanks."

I said and continued walking to my class.

Lily watched him walk away and couldn't help but feel drawn to him.

I stepped into the classroom and my footsteps echoed in the sudden hush.

Twenty pairs of eyes turned to me, and I scanned the room for an empty seat.

The teacher, Ms. Harrison, paused mid-sentence at her desk, her chalk hovering over the blackboard.

She recovered quickly and gestured to an empty desk near the window.

As I walked between the rows, a girl with short red hair caught my eye by deliberately looking away while everyone else stared.

I slid into the seat, and the chair scraped against the floor in the dead silence.

Someone behind me whispered, "Fresh meat," followed by muffled giggles.

The girl with the red hair leaned over and whispered, "Don't mind them, they're just curious. I'm Alex."

I turned slightly to face her, grateful for the friendly gesture. "Thanks, Alex. It's a bit overwhelming, but I'll survive."

Ms. Harrison cleared her throat, and the room fell silent.

She resumed writing on the blackboard, explaining cellular biology to the class.

I tried to focus on her words, but the constant rustling of paper behind me made it difficult.

I glanced over my shoulder to see girls passing notes between each other.

Their eyes darted between me and their friends, their whispers almost inaudible.

Alex shot annoyed glances at them while pretending to take notes.

The folded papers continued to circulate, and I kept my eyes forward, refusing to give them a reaction.

Something hit my shoulder, and I turned to see a paper airplane glide onto my desk.

Unfolding it, I read the message inside: "Welcome to the jungle."
