Duma was awoken by a rather large jump in the bus followed by subtle rowdiness from the kids behind him and a quick apology from the driver. He dismissed it and dosed off again only to wake back up, what felt like moments, afterward to a harsh halt and kids all in a rush to the door, He was in one of the first rows so he stepped up before the rest of the kids could keep him locked in his seat, stepping down through the narrow bus door he turned to the pile of luggage that was being unloaded, picking out his olive green cylinder sack and facing the school. Met with a daunting structure, he took a half step back, then continued confidently through the gates and into the atrium of the estate.
The entry was large, Quite large, Duma was a big guy and he felt abnormally small. Off down one of the hallways he saw a line of kids out in the hall all waiting for something in the room the line led into, he assumed he was to follow suite so he did, stepping in line and studying faces of all the other kids some older most younger and hardly any bigger than he was.
Duma was just about to the door when his eyes were caught and held helplessly by a gorgeous little (literally) girl that walked out just as he faced the doorway to get in. He followed her slim figure all the way down the hallway until he could no longer see her, turning back to face the line he was suddenly impatient to be attended to. Only 5-6 more kids stepped up to the desk then it was his turn. He signed himself in, taking the papers she handed him and only hesitating for a moment to ask,
"The common room is that way is it not?" Pointing in the direction the girl had disappeared. The attendant simply shook her head and turned to the next kid who needed help.
He skipped out the door way, looking like a buffoon to the other kids he was sure, which made him slow to a fast walk as he searched for the door the pretty girl had gone in. Once he found it, it sure was the door she had entered.
"COMMON ROOM" stated the little metal wall tag next to the door. He smiled big, then took a breath and hid it as he attempted to play it cool, about to make his first friend. He swung open the door and was greeted by an ugly room and of course the girl he was looking for, not to mention the buffet, which demanded his attention due to the fact he was starving. Duma made a stop by the buffet to fill a plate, never taking an eye off the girl as she ate, he finished up and headed over to take the seat next to her thinking about what to say, almost completely ignoring everyone else in the room.
As he approached,
*Clears throat* "Excuse me miss? Is this seat taken? Im Dumaka, Call me Duma if you'd like~"@EchoicChamber
