    A new school year. A new school. An all-boys school. Had to transfer here because of a move to this town. As much as you wanted to stay there, at your old school, with your friends, you weren't really given a choice. No choice at all. Typical. Parents, as usual, made up something for themselves and didn't even take into account the child's wishes.

    You walked into Truham School. Everything was so new and unfamiliar. So many guys everywhere, everyone laughing, happy to see each other, and you here... the odd one out. Yes, that's exactly how it felt. Emptiness and confusion.

    Somehow you found the class you needed and approached the teacher. While he checked your name on the list, you nervously shifted from foot to foot.

    "Sit over there, next to Nick Nelson"-the teacher said without taking his eyes off him and nodded somewhere to the side.

    When you looked in that direction, you saw a guy sitting at a table. There was an empty seat next to him. So this is where you should go. You walked up to the desk and sat down at the table, taking pens and a notebook out of your backpack.

    "Hi, my name is Nick! Are you new? I haven't seen you before."-your new deskmate's voice was heard. Nick tilted his head to the side in a friendly manner, smiling faintly.
