Alexa felt herself sink in her seat a little as she watched more of her classmates make there way in. No one seemed to notice her. Maybe they were also caught in the excitement and worry of class. She wanted to make conversation, but her throat seemed to become tight as she did so. 
She even tried to wave to one of the classmates, but they missed her interaction.

“R-right…”

Her grey eyes sadly scanned her desk and locked with the Capybara on her notebook. The Capybara with a pompadour hairstyle made her feel at ease with his confident thumbs up. 

“You can do it!” The Capybara said on the cover.

Of course Alexa had seen this image forever, but she needed this today.

After a few moments of missed attempts, She sat quietly and just hoped for class to start. 

“I’ll try to make friends later.” Alexa whispered to herself, then she let out a soft sigh. 

Just a moment later, she saw someone come up close to her desk and she got a glimpse of her. Her anxiety began to settle down. She remembered the familiar face and smiled. This was her moment to sound calmish.

“Long night huh?” Her voice squeaked a little and she cleared her throat. “It’s good to know we both made it here.”

Alexa nodded as she watched Yin about to take a nap.  Her heart was starting to settle now since she knew someone in the classroom.  Of course she could truly settle down and renew her confidence, The teacher came in. Gang Orca looked so massive in person. The room was dwarfed in comparison to him. Alexa adjusted her glasses as the large man spoke. 

“Whoa….He’s loud.”

Every muscle in her body tensed up as she tried to put her hands back on her desk. Her classmate’s comment was very fitting.

“I wouldn’t say died...but maybe a little close to it. “ Alexa said quietly as she shared a glance with the girl in the beanie.
