Serendipity

01

Monday morning around 8:20am :

Aspin stands and waits for her friend
to exit from their bus into the town before they'd both walk to an alley way near their destination for the day... Aspin stands back to the cold brick wall as she scrolls through her phone, probably looking at some hot girls on Instagram.

Meanwhile her friend Eoife crouched to the ground reaching into their brown snake skin patterned bag for the essentials... Essentials for the joint they were eager to smoke.

Eoife pulling their blue grinder from their bag of supplies as well as long thin papers in a booklet with roach material as well as some tobacco from their tin. They strategically peel a paper from the pack placing it between their nimble fingers.

"Aspin? " they ask curiously. "Apsin you dick stop scrolling through your Instagram feed and pass me my tobacco!" they exclaim in slight frustration. "oh and sort me a roach too." they quickly add.

"Yes your fucking highness" she says with a smirk while carefully spreading some tobacco into the paper. "Thank you." Eoife replies.

Aspin inspects as Eoife carefully opens the blue grinder and taps in the grinded marijuhana into the paper, the smell overwhelming their senses. Apsin then hands them the beautifully heart shaped roach she rolled and watches as they place it into the left end of the joint. Eoife begins to roll the paper back and forth between their fingers being cautious to not spill any of the precious weed. Licking the seal of the paper before folding it over upon itself creating a beautiful long joint full of the strongly scented paraphernalia.

Aspin at the ready with her bright pink lighter for Eoife to use they retreive it from her which reads 'daddy <3' marked on it with sharpie. They remove the flint to turn it round and use the poker to pack in the substance down into the joint. Within seconds of doing so Eoife pops the flint back in and proceeds to light the end of it but blowing off the excess paper from the tip. Shortly after they take a big inhale and hold it for a second or two before passing it to Aspin to take a draw.

"What a beautiful way to start the day." Eoife exclaims as the smoke leaves their mouth with ease from the suttle gust of wind that made its way round the corner of the wall. Aspin nodding in agreement.

Letting the smoke sit in her mouth before she slowly let it drift from her soft lips, back and forth they pass it each draw consuming their sobriety by the minute. Aspin let's out a obnoxiously loud cough from her lungs making her take a step back to catch her breath.

"Serves you right getting cocky with it, stupid bitch." Eoife laughs off the remark as Apsin looks up with a half assed grim on her flushed cheeks.

Eoife continues smoking, every now and again they lick their lips to moisten their pallete that has become insaleny dry from the substance.

Staggering their way up the narrow paths in their intoxicated state mixed with their sensory overload, every step forwards leading them closer towards 'the gates of hell' ahead of them which is how they reffered to their school. It wasn't a place either of them much enjoyed attending although being in 6th year meant it was voluntary schooling they've gotten themselves into, only by persusion from their parents of course to exceed their full potential and what not. The two would never step a foot back into the place unless they were physically trailed back there... In their case it was practically true.

They did it to keep their parents minds at ease that Eoife and Apsin were both at school and not out somewhere on the streets with no life and selling drugs to kids or some other stupid scenario their parents would come up with in their frantic minds.

As a reader you may be questioning these characters peculiar decisions especially before hearing into school right? There's a lot to learn about these two as you'll soon see and their reasoning behind such bold choices they make.
