Life is just a blur

I was actually wrong when I said 'hour of boredom'. It's History class, and I suddenly feel the urge to cry.
Damn this banshee thing.
I go to the toilet after asking the teacher, trying to look normal. I think I failed at that, because I heard Frank asking himself, ‘What happened to him?’ In the toilet, I close myself in one of the cubicles and let the tears stream down my cheeks.
I think I never cried on purpose in my life. Well, I didn't live until today; I just stayed alone in my room, without even eating or drinking. I just stared at the walls and slept, trying to understand what I was in my past life. Sometimes my dreams would help me, other times I just watched the backs of my eyelids.
I wipe the tears off my face and wash it with fresh water. My eyes are red. I look like I've been crying (or smoking weed but whatever).
While going to my classroom I can hear the thoughts of the spare people walking in the hallway.
"I can't believe he left me for that whore."
"Shit, it’s Maths later!"
"Uh? A farshee?"
"I'm so hungry, geez."
Wait. What? Someone noticed me?
I turn my head and look around to find that person. No one is watching me, except for a short girl with short brown hair. She fixes her glasses and furrows her eyebrows. I walk over to her. If she knows what I am, she will probably be like me.
"Hiii” I say, not certain of what I should ask her
"Uhm, hi,” she says. "Shit, did he hear what I thought? I didn't know farshees could read minds.."

I nod, answering her thoughts.
Her jaw drops, but she closes her mouth immediately, looks around and smiles when she doesn't see anybody near us.
Her hair is quite strange. It's like an asymmetrical pixie cut, but the fringe is longer and the ends are turquoise, and the hair behind is a bit longer than usual and it's in a wave-like shape. She looks like some Japanese comic character.
“A manga character? Really?” she snaps, making me go out my thoughts.
"So, you can read minds too,” I say.
"Yup. I'm Sylwia. Fallen angel and shit like that.”
"Gerard. You know what I am.”
"Gerard, I have to go, I'll see you during the break, 'kay?”
I give her a thumbs-up and go back to the classroom.

~Time lapse~

“So, Gerard, how was this first day of school here?” Frank asks me.
"Not bad,” I answer.
"Cool. I'm going to see my friend Ray, do you want to come?”
“Sure. Can I bring a friend? I met her today,” I say when I see Sylwia waving to me.
"HER? Oh God Frank are you jealous of Gerard?" Frank thinks and sighs.
I try my best not to make him think I noticed his thoughts, but I feel my cheeks burning.
“Hey,” Sylwia says to me, then looks at Frank and squints her eyes.
She sighs and introduces herself.
“I'm Frank,” he tells her, “aaaaand here's Ray,” he gestures to a tall boy with fizzy hair who smiles to all us and gives Sylwia a high five.
“You two know eachother?” I ask.
"Yeah. She's like an angel to me,” Ray laughs and Frank gives him a questioning look. “But I do not know you.”
“Gerard,” I say.
He glares at me like he knows what I am.
Sylwia moves her mouth forming a word. Werewolf.
“Ooh,” I say.
"What?” Frank asks.
I look at him and put a strand of hair behind my ear. He doesn't seem to know about Ray's secret. And I won't tell him.
'Why is everyone so odd right now? Ray is Sylwia's friend? He never told me about her’ I hear Frank thinking.
“Frank! Can you show me the school?” I ask, not really knowing what to say to catch his attention.
‘It's better to leave them alone,’ Frank thinks and nods, waving goodbye to Ray.
“What do you want to see?” Frank asks me.
“The library?” I pause, “I don't really know.”
“Library. Okay. It's quite far, we can talk while going.” he looks at me in the eyes “Who are you?”
