This research would involve asking people some questions, or you can simply study your environment to find answers to the questions.
The assignment was quite complex, especially the one that would require you to do some research. But Ryan would be able to handle them according to what he was seeing.
He closed his book and put it into his bag along with the reed pen. And after doing that, he glanced around and noticed some stares were already on him again.
And he was fucking surprised ’cause it hadn’t been that long since that teacher left their classroom, and they’d already resumed staring at him weirdly?…
‘My stay in this classroom wouldn’t be nice at all, and I don’t know how long it would last’. Ryan thought to himself.
They were making hurtful remarks about him before that teacher stepped foot into their classroom. Now that the teacher had left, they’d resumed doing something they were doing before which was staring at him awkwardly.
Who knows, they might resume the other one which was making hurtful remarks about him.
He tried his best not to glance at any of the people staring at him again. His eyes were just focused on space, he was glancing at nothing.
It hadn’t been long since he became a student of this classroom which he was a student of before, and he wasn’t enjoying his stay here at all.
No friends, no peace of mind, what he was receiving were weird stares and hurtful remarks.
The weird stares had resumed, in fact, more people were staring at him awkwardly now. But the hurtful remarks hadn’t resumed yet.
And he didn’t know if they were going to resume or not. Well, as known, he’d already been warned about everything happening to him now by Kai. The only thing was that he didn’t brace himself well enough.
“Ryan, can I ask you a question?”. A certain voice resounded.
This was after minutes of silence. Ryan had been waiting for the hurtful remarks to resume, but they didn’t.
And all of a sudden, the voice that just resounded now broke the silence. It was the voice of a certain boy that wasn’t sitting too far from Ryan.
Ryan glanced at him before voicing out, “What did you say?”.
“I said, can I ask you a question?”. The boy’s voice resounded again.
What Ryan didn’t know now was if the boy wanted to ask a genuine question…not the one that would taunt him.
He didn’t know if the boy was among the people that made hurtful remarks about him, but from what he remembered, the boy was among the people that was staring at him awkwardly at some point.
‘Should I permit him to ask me the question? I’m having a feeling it isn’t a genuine question he wants to ask me, instead, the one that would taunt me’. Ryan thought to himself.
..He was confused, he didn’t know if he should permit the boy to ask him the question.
After a few seconds of contemplation, he stated, “You can go on”.
All the people glancing at Ryan focused their gazes on the boy the moment he permitted the boy to ask the question.
“Why did you come back to school?”. The boy inquired as a bit of smirk appeared on his face after asking the question.
Ryan sighed the moment he heard the question…it was just as he thought, it wasn’t a genuine question.
The question was obviously a stupid one, he knew the answer to it but just wanted to taunt Ryan with the question. Of course, he came back to school to complete his schooling.
And the smirk that appeared on his face after asking shows he was asking it to taunt him…
Ryan heard some chuckles after the boy asked that question. He wasn’t answering the question, that’s for sure.
He was older than many of the students in this classroom ’cause he wasn’t supposed to be here if not for that incident, he would have graduated by now. But though he was older than them, they were still mocking him.
This fact was making Ryan so angry, but he wasn’t showing it. As said, he wasn’t answering the boy’s question, and he kept to that.
He just took his gaze away from the boy and began glancing at space once again.
“Aren’t you going to answer the question, you moron?”. The boy’s voice resounded again.
Hearing that word ‘moron’ spiked up Ryan’s anger, and it showed on his face. He glanced at the boy with that angered expression still evident on his face, and before he could say anything, a teacher stepped foot into their classroom.
The teacher was a female, and it was another teacher Ryan was aware of. She’d been teaching in this academy before he went into comma.
He took his gaze off the boy after the teacher entered their classroom. And the moment he set eyes on her properly, he recognized this was another teacher he was aware of.
After she stepped foot into the classroom and was walking toward the front of the classroom, the students greeted her as usual, which she responded to.
After arriving in front of the classroom, she began scanning around just as the other man did. By now, the annoyed expression on Ryan’s face had already vanished.
What he wanted to say to that boy wouldn’t have been pleasant at all. It would only lead to more students mocking him and making hurtful remarks about him…they would intensify.
As the lady was scanning around, she sighted Ryan in the process. And the usual happened, her eyes widened as she opened her mouth in awe. She was shocked just as every other person was shocked after setting eyes on Ryan.
She told him to stand up so she could see him properly just as Miss Amaya told him to stand up after setting eyes on him…
And Ryan did just so, he stood up from his seat. And the lady walked closer to him and glanced at him from up to down with that shocked expression still plastered on her face.
He was looking so agile, that only meant he was completely healthy and wouldn’t be going back to comma anymore. This was something the lady discerned, and she was glad.
She asked Ryan some questions which he gave answers to. Then she told him how happy she was to see that he’d woken up…something he’d heard countless times.
He said ‘thanks’ to her, then she walked back to the front of the classroom, and Ryan sat back on his seat.
..Now, the lady’s case was different, she didn’t do as the man did.
Even though she saw Ryan, was surprised, and conversed with him. She still made sure to finish scanning around the classroom, and no one was absent according to what she saw.
Then she began teaching, which involved her making use of the board as well. So as she was teaching, she was writing on the board.
What was her teaching like? Partly boring, partly interesting. Yes, some part of her teaching was boring, and some part was interesting.
But since it was mixed with boring and interesting…that means it was manageable.
After she’d written on the board to an extent, she told the students to transfer everything on the board into their books, which they did with immediate effect.
In the next minutes, she was done teaching. She didn’t give them any assignment, she just told them to go through everything she wrote on the board which they transferred into their books.
They needed to read them personally and digest them as well, so they could fully understand them.
Before she walked out of the classroom, she reminded Ryan how happy she was to see that he’d woken up, and he only nodded his head to her utterance.
It didn’t take long for another teacher to step foot into their classroom after the lady left. And that’s how it kept on going, about two more teachers entered their classroom after that one left.
They didn’t just enter their classroom, they taught them as well. Now, two of the teachers were teachers Ryan wasn’t aware of.
That means they hadn’t begun teaching in this academy before he went into comma. So they weren’t aware of him, and he wasn’t aware of them as well.
They didn’t know about the Howell family either, so they didn’t recognize him as Ryan Howell. They just took him as a new student…
But one of the teachers recognized Ryan ’cause he’d been teaching in this academy before he went into comma, and Ryan recognized him as well.
And you know what? The usual took place. He was shocked to see Ryan, he asked him some questions which he gave answers to, then he taught before leaving their classroom.
And now, it had gotten to break hour. It was about time for everyone to head over to the cafeteria to eat.
Ryan’s stay in this classroom hadn’t been nice at all ’cause of his classmates. Now, what he experienced here would be nothing compared to what he’d experience once he steps out of this classroom and reaches the cafeteria…
