Connor: the days were so much better when we didn't have to come to school. I wish we could go back in time to spring break and stay there.

Kara: you're still whining about school when graduation is literally upon us.

Nora: oh yeah...

Nora: May is coming and we'll finally be free of high school.

Connor: really? How could I forget that?

Aviana: I can't wait.

Luke: in case you all forgot, we do have the terror of exams to deal with too.

Nora: way to ruin the mood...

Luke: what? I'm just being realistic.

Connor: oh no, exams... What a hassle.

Kara: and this time, please don't fail Connor or you won't be able to graduate.

Connor: hey, I'm trying my best!

Kara: ...

Connor: Kara, I am seriously trying my best.

Kara: okay, all the best then.

Zach: I seriously couldn't have chosen a worse time to get selected...

Aviana: oh look, the school celebrity is here.

Zach: ...

Aviana: and what did you just say, you ungrateful piece of slime?

Zach: that exams are round the corner and Coach got so delighted I got selected that he wants me to keep training.

Zach: and I get so exhausted that it's hard to study afterwards.

Aviana: your fault for telling him in the first place.

Zach: I didn't tell him anything!

Luke: ...

Nora: then who did?

Luke: 😬

Luke: sorry.

Zach: what?

Luke: I did.

Zach: ...

Kara: don't worry, we'll talk to him and get him to see sense. You've got to keep training a bit so that you don't get out of shape before the races start but you also have to study so keep it balanced and don't overexert yourself.

Connor: yeah, she's right.

Nora: also, someone mentioned that you two got together.

Kara: who two?

Nora: you and Zach.

Kara: well...

Aviana: that someone who brought the news also has confidential proof backing the statement.

Nora: oooh, spill the tea, sis

Aviana: gladly

Kara: ...

Zach: Ava, please don't bring up any proofs.

Aviana: what's in it for me?

Zach: I'll buy you three ice creams, I promise.

Aviana: ...

Aviana: you serious?

Zach: dead serious.
