Kotone’s dad: “Hello 10th grader. How are you?”
K: “Good. Just nervous.”
Kotone’s dad: “I know you’re English is a bit rough but don’t worry, you will do fine, and you’ll be able to pick up English. Besides it’s only for 10 months tops.”
K: “Yes father.”
Kotone’s mom: “Now your lunch…”
K: “Already packed mother.” Kotone goes to the kitchen and grabs a bento box and puts in her backpack.
Kotone’s dad: “Now go, young warrior and bring honor to us all.” Kotone’s dad smiles. K: “Yes father.” Kotone bows and runs out the door. Kotone’s mom: “She’ll do fine.” Kotone runs out the door to find a group of kids at a stop sign.
K : “Um. This where bus is? A boy turns around.
Boy1: “Yeah, what’s it to you?”
K: “Uh, can you repeat that?”
Boy 1 (yelling): “What? DO YOU SPEAK ENGLISH?!” Kotone looks taken aback and scared. Another boy turns around to face Boy 1.
Boy2 (yellin): “Hey what’s your problem?”
Boy 1: “You’re my problem now punk.” Boy 1 shoves Boy 2. Boy 2 shoves Boy 1. Boy 1 punches Boy 2 and Boy 2 punches Boy 1. A fight ensues. Kotone is scared. The bus starts to come around the corner.
Girl: “BUS!” The boys stop fighting, dust off themselves.
Boy 1 (acting as if nothing happened): “So what’s up?”

Bus driver: “Hey, are you coming on?” Kotone snaps out of her daze and runs inside the bus.
Inside the school.
Kotone looks at the paper. The list goes down in class order: English Honors, Algebra II Honors, Spanish I, World History Honors, Lunch, Art I, Chemistry Honors, Gym, Choir.
K: What are these classes? I know English, and History, but what’s “Chem-est-tree”? Lord help me.” Kotone unexpectedly bumps into someone. Kotone drops her books and papers. K: “Oh no.” A group of cheerleaders come to her.
Cheerleader1: “Oh look! A poor girl is in need of help.”
