AFTER HER FRIENDS RUTHLESS RIDICULE WAS COMING TO A CLOSE, LELA HEADED TO HER FIRST CLASS OF THE DAY.... WORLD HISTORY. LELA LIKED WORLD HISTORY, IT WAS EASY BECAUSE IT WAS JUST MEMORIZING THE LIFE STORIES OF A BUNCH OF DEAD PEOPLE. LELA SAT DOWN AT HER SEAT AND CLASS BEGAN. THROUGH THE ENTIRE CLASS, SHE STARTED TO CALM DOWN, UNTIL ABOUT THIRTY SECONDS UNTIL THE BELL RANG. SHE CAME TO A HORRIFYING REALIZATION, IT WAS AN A DAY, AND THAT MEANT SHE HAD 3D ART NEXT. THAT MEANT SHE HAD TO SEE JAY. LELA WENT PALE AND SLID OUT OF HER HER CLASSROOM, DREADING HER NEXT PERIOD. AFTER EVERYTHING THAT HAPPENED THAT MORNING, SHE'D STILL HAVE TO SIT THERE, NEXT TO THEM FOR AN ENTIRE 85 MINUTE CLASS?????? NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
LELA STUMBLED INTO THE CLASSROOM, AND SANK TO HER STOOL. SHE GRABBED HER MATERIALS AND GOT TO WORK ON HER FOAM CUP SCULPTURE, PRAYING THAT JAY WOULDN'T QUESTION HER ABOUT THE LAST ENCOUNTER THE TWO OF THEM HAD. JAY DIDN'T, THANKFULLY. LELA WOULD OCCASIONALLY CATCH THEM STARING AT HER WITH A CONFUSED EXPRESSION, BUT THEN THEIR EYES WOULD MEET AND JAY WOULD SWERVE BACK AROUND. THE ENTIRE CLASS TIME WAS AS DREADFULLY AWKWARD AS A HALLMARK MOVIE, BUT AT LEAST NO CONVERSATION WAS STRUCK UP. THE BELL RUNG AND LELA SPED OUT OF CLASS, GIVING JAY NO TIME TO EVEN THINK OF SAYING ANYTHING TO HER.
LELA HEADED TO HER ADVISORY AND SAT THERE IN SILENCE WHILST HER ROWDY CLASSMATES TALKED EACH OTHER'S EARS OFF. AS SHE SAT AT HER DESK SHE COULDN'T HELP BUT FEEL RELIEVED THAT SHE DIDN'T HAVE TO ADDRESS HER LITTLE OUTBURST OF ABSOLUTE TOMFOOLERY THAT HAPPENED EARLIER. BUT EVEN SO, SHE STILL FELT SO LONELY. SHE SIGHED AND PULLED OUT HER SKETCHBOOK, DRAWING A PICTURE OF HER HONEY BUNNY SCHMOOPSIE POOPSIE JUJUBEE BEANIE BEAR BUBBIES AND HOLDING BACK TEARS.
