Go to class

I enter the classroom and take my seat next to my best-friend Aya.
Aya is an exchange student from Japan, her family came here about two years ago because the company where her father is working decided to expand its investments into this area.
As a result all of her family moved here and she came to this school to keep on with her studies.
The first day she arrived a teacher told her to sit next to me, and we slowly became friends.

Generally speaking Aya is exactly what you would expect from the common stereotype of a Japanese schoolgirl.
Straight long black hair, black almond-shaped eyes, a thin mouth and a small body frame.
Her personality is also within what you would expect, she is shy by nature. Being on a new place made her a very reserved person, and an incredible friend once you get to know her.

"Hi Aya" I tell her as I open my backpack to grab my books.
"Hi Danielle" She replies with a small smile "How are you?"
"Worried.." I reply "Not only I'm extremely behind with my studies, but I also think Malcom likes me"
"Malcom? The leader of the Nerds? That weirdo?" Aya asks me surprised
"Yeah, we traveled together today, we talked a little bit and he just told me to visit his club a few minutes ago" I tell her
"Why did you traveled with him?" she says
"There weren't many options, the bus was pretty crowded" I reply.
"Still you picked him" Aya says as if trying to guess if there's something I'm not telling her
"Just forget about it" I say trying to change the subject

At that moment the door opens and Professor Grant enters.
