Chapter Two

Dr. R as I called him in short was everything to me, my teacher, my friend. He was the only person I could talk to since I am not allowed to associate with anyone.

For the past ten years, He had taught me everything that I need to know. He taught me how to take control of my powers, how to act human, and mostly Education. I learned how to fight while watching the television, every single day of the past ten years I've been locked up indoors.

" Are you okay?" He asked walking towards me. He smelt different today and his outfitting as well. I couldn't get a whiff of his coffee breath or ting of weird chemicals on his shirt. I slowly stood up from the floor and walked back to the couch.

" You smell and look different today, what's the occasion? I gasped. Don't tell me, you are going on a date dressed like that." I gagged.

" Hahaha! Not funny. You better go put some clothes on, we will be late for the admission."

" Wait, what? Admission to what?"

" High School of course." He picked up the kettle on the stove, grabbed a mug from the cabinet, and poured in some hot water into it. We don't have time spare Victor go put on some clothes." He reached for a container then took out a tea bag and dropped it into the hot water.

" Dr. R. I don't think I need to be enrolled in high school to learn. I already know all there is to know about everything, including art, science, sports, name it."

He smiled and walked up to me while carrying his tea mug. " I'm aware of all that buddy, but you need to learn how the world works and how to associate with people your age, you can't keep hanging out with an oldie like me, you need to go out there and make friends, get a girlfriend." He patted my shoulder and continued out. " Ten minutes to get ready, I will be waiting in the car." I heard the door bop as the room became quiet.

I took a deep sigh. " Alright Victor, you got this. All you have to do is play along and be human, I don't think it's that difficult. Quickly I rushed to my room to get ready. I slide into a pair of jeans I found in my closet, and a white shirt. Had my sneakers on, my lanky brunette strands looked good I presume, so I was good to go.

My First time, leaving the comfort of my apartment to associate with humans. I was ready to jump into action. I took the elevator to the ground floor and as I walked Mr. Ron's car, I couldn't help but notice the attention I was drawing to myself, people were looking at me and some girls were giggling as they walked by me. I thought that I looked awesome until I got into the car. " Phew! Did you see that Mr. Ron? I think I'm the lady's man. Those girls wouldn't stop staring at me. I guess I have nothing to worry about after all."

" Boy, you have everything to worry about. Did you look at yourself in the mirror before leaving your room? And I bet you my car that those girls weren't laughing because they were admiring you. He soughed. We need to fix this, you can't go to school looking like that." he starts the engine and we zoomed out.

Being outside of the apartment for the first time, I could see the world and feel its energy, and Everything looked wonderful. New Havens has never been this amazing in my eyes earlier.

Before the time, we left home, Mr. Ron pulled up and asked me to come with him.

I obeyed and followed him, we went into the convenience store and he asked the shop attendant to help me find a causal school getup, the man behind the counter gaped at me with a grin before he asked me to tag along with him. He rooks out some clothes on the hasp

And asked me to change into them while pointing towards the dressing room.

It took me a few minutes to change into the new outfits and simply I loved how I looked in them, I felt like one of those teenage hunks in movies. I made my way out of the dressing room and already, Mr. Ron was at the door waiting for me.

I could see with the look on his face that I looked good in the clothes he bought me. " What do you think?" I still had to ask. Just to be certain.

" You look great. Now I can proudly drive you to school as my son." He went ahead and paid for clothes before we continued our trip.

Minutes later, we arrived at the school. It was nothing I had imagined, they were hundreds of people my age and younger chatting and having fun with their friends. Numerous scents filled my nose, I could hear different chatters and laughter coming from all angles as I stood by the car and my eyes awestruck from the scenery right before me.

" Let's go!" I felt a tap on my back, I relapsed and followed him as we proceeded into the school facility.

I noticed some of the students glanced at me as I walked past them and few wondered who I was. While I could hear some admiring my long hair, especially the girls.

We made a stop when we got to the principal's office. Mr. Ron knocked before opening the door and I came after him as he made his way into the principal's office. I didn't hear him usher us in, maybe because I was busy listening to the buzzes about me.

" Good morning sir. Please have a seat" the principal sounded kinda apprehensive and smelling weird, some smell I haven't picked up before, it smelled foul but good in a way. A few buttons on his shirt were undone, and he was acting dubiously. I picked up a feminine scent and heard someone's heart throbbing loudly, I couldn't tell where it was coming from or whose it was, I was sure there was someone else in the office. However, it was none of my business and I just wanted to get out of there.

" Umm, you are welcome to Greenwood high school Sir! "

" Please, call me Dr. Ron. "

" alright Dr. Ron, and this must be..." He appeared lost while he stared at me.

" Victor. My son Victor, the one we spoke about over the phone about his admission."

" Oh yeah! Pardon my forgetful nature. You seem quite like a good boy Victor, I hope you maintain your good qualities here with us in Greenwood. He smirked stealing a glance at me before taking out a file. Fill the forms and I will assign you to your classes so you can resume immediately with us." His breath reeks of expired cheese. It made me wonder when last he used a toothbrush.

He handed over a paper and a pen to me and ask me to fill in the options, which I did promptly and handed it over to him.

He took the paper from me and scanned it before raising his eyes to me. "Science huh? You must be a bright student. He stood up from his chair, his pants zip was unlocked, and he quickly zippered up. Sorry about that, I hope you don't mind waiting for a second while I find someone to escort you to class."

Just as he was about to leave his desk, the door opened and a woman walks in.

" Oh! Just at the right time Mrs. Griffin. "

" Do you need me for anything? Principal Matthews?" She asked stealing a glance at me and Dr.R as she picked up some files from the desk.

" Of course, Mrs. Griffin. This is Victor, Victor this Mrs. Griffin, your vice principal, and Mrs. Griffin, he is our new student. I'd appreciate it if you could show him to his class." He sat back down on his chair, tugging on his tie.

" Nice to meet you Victor, welcome to Greenwood. Umm, please come with me so I can show you to your class." She opened the door and I quickly stood up from my seat, Peering at Dr. R as though I was being separated from him for eternity, while I walked away with the vice principal.
