As soon as you walked into the classroom, the school bell rang. You were lucky to not have been late to class on your very first day. You had moved to Canada because your dad had found a better job, which you weren't happy about. The students looked at you for a moment, but then they went back to their phones or started talking to their friends.

"Um, if it's cool.. I'd rather not introduce myself." 

You said it a bit stuffily, as if you were on the brink of tears. But it was just bad nerves. A boy from across from where you sat suddenly waved at you.

"Hey, it's nice to meet you, I'm-"

Before he could even say anything, the teacher immediately shushed him, and all his friends laughed at the failed attempt at a conversation. But once he saw you get up from your chair to grab the assignment, he followed behind you.
