         Where do we start?
           Evan of course, had a horrible day as usual. 
It's like a normal routine at this point to be honest. Yeah, he was a straight A student so what else could go wrong, it's the day before summer break.

  Evan walked into his final class, science. It was his least favorite cause of his lab partner, Max who would spill chemicals basically causing everyone to evacuate the school every Thursday afternoon.

   He walked, chills went down his spine cause the place was as cold as the arctic.
   "Should have brought my jacket!" He thought.

   He slowly sat in his seat waiting for Max to magically appear like her does, but he didn't come.

   After at least after ten minutes, Miss Till ran in.
     She was like ancient so no one knew how she could run.
 "Good evening class" She brushed one of her gray hairs to the side.
      She leaned on the table knocking over her coffee.
      "Oh lord!" She exclaimed.
                    
Of course the drink was really, really hot.
      She used some paper to clean the stain since she doesn't own paper towels or wet wipes.

   "Okay, um so..." She gazed at the coffee stained paper.
       She gasped in shock.

"Everything okay Miss. Till" Evan asked.
     
    "Evan! Max, he is in the hospital" Miss. Till announced.

      'Thank you!" Evan thought as he tried to hide his smile.

      No, Evan wasn't happy about Max being in the hospital, he was happy cause now he could actually focus on stuff with someone knocking over a chemical while ranting about Star Wars.

   "So sad" Evan nodded.

     "That's why you'll be partnering with Monica for the final paper"
          Miss. Till declared pointing at Monica's desk.

   Monica was sleeping, mumbling words like, "Stop eating my foot"
          "Y-yeah, wha-" She jumped up.

 Miss. Till looked unamused.

   "It is due tomorrow" Miss. Till continued, erasing the whiteboard.

 Evan raised his eyebrow, how could it be due tomorrow?
   Like they just got the project.

    Monica nodded and smiled, it was her way to make herself look attentive during curtain classes.

     "Hey!" Monica whispered to Evan.
"So like can you do the project, and I'll present it?" She pleaed.
