UnOrdinary But They All Lack Braincells

And So It Begins

The sun streamed through Seraphina's window, warming her skin with its afternoon rays. She lay on her bed, playing Angry Pigs on her laptop as she awaited John's return from school. It was Friday, and usually he'd be ditching with her to get boba or go to the mall. However, he'd cited a math test as his reason for staying at school until its end. Sera didn't mind, especially after John's dejected admittance that his grades had taken a dive from all their class skipping.

"Didn't you usually miss classes anyways?" Sera had asked him, "Y'know, due to... bullies?"

John had sighed. "I know, but Ms Wallace's been threatening to keep me after school for tutoring if my grade gets any lower."

Sera had simply rolled her eyes and wished him luck. Though she hadn't made much of a habit of attending classes often, the trignometry teacher Ms Wallace's class lectures still stung her head. The teacher was known to be harsh, especially to low-tiers.

How much easier would this be if he had an ability...

Her phone buzzed. Pulled from her thoughts, Sera grabbed it, expecting a text from John.

Remi: And John

Arlo: ...

Remi: Cmon arlo I'm sure he's not that bad a person◠‿◠✿

Remi: Just try to get along

Seraphina rolled her eyes. Again, Remi with one of her schemes to force everyone to 'get along'. The week before, Remi had invited everyone to lunch together, but by the time Seraphina had arrived in the cafeteria, things had already turned chaotic. Elaine was sobbing over a tray of spilled orange juice while Blyke and Isen were chasing each other around the cafeteria for a piece of cake. Arlo just sat on his phone, looking exasperated. Cecile was nowhere to be found, and Remi was trying to talk to everyone at once.

Sera would rather eat on the roof with John anyways.

Her phone buzzed again, and she noticed a new notification from Arlo.

Arlo

Arlo: Did she put you up to this?

Seraphina: Up to what?

Arlo: This... Group chat.

Seraphina: Nope. But adding John was my idea

Seraphina: And I will defend him

Seraphina: So dont try anything.

Arlo: ...

Arlo: I still don't get why you're attached to that cripple

Seraphina: Weve talked about this.

Seraphina: My life my choice

Arlo: Hes weird though

Arlo: Doesn't act like a cripple

Seraphina: If you dont stfu ill block you right now

Seraphina: Stop talking shit about John

Seraphina: Im warning you. Bitch

Arlo: ...

Arlo: Whatever

Seraphina frowned as Arlo's status switched to 'offline'.

I don't get why he's got to be on John's case all the time. What's his problem?

But her annoyance melted as a text from John popped up on her phone, inviting her to Woaba boba. Sera responded playfully, a smile on her face.

Seraphina: About time.
