(Sirah's pov)

Me and Naya have already parted our ways, and since I don't have many other friends, I found Silke. She was hanging out with a girl named Kaia. Surprisingly, I don't have much against Kaia. She's nice enough. My cousin, Sarrah, is also in food tech. We're both in innovation, too. We actually sit next to each other.

Once Simon arrives, he unlocks the door. We sit down at different tables. I'm not very excited being here at all. I fucking hate food tech. My cooking skills are very mediocre, but the only thing I need to know is how to make instant noodles, which I am an expert at. Once Simon had told us about the food we will need to make, everybody divided into groups. (Mille was delighted by the fact the dish included lemons.) To nobody's surprise Charley and Mille somehow ended up in a group together. They tried to act surprised and dissatisfied about it. Of course we all suspected they were secretly enjoying it.

We were ordered by the recipe to cut some carrots, tomatos & cucumbers for a fruit salad as a side dish for our pasta. We were gonna use the lemon juice for the salad. Mille decided to cut the vegetables (probably because it included squeezing the lemon.) Naturally, Charley decided to join her (although he acted like it was a burden.) With fear of accidentally burning the pasta again somehow, I still decided to cook the pasta. I was highly concentrated. Well, the only reason why, is because I was too lazy to cut countless amounts of vegetables.

Mille's body shiffered, and she took up her index finger in front of her eyes. Apparently, she was bleeding. She walked up to Simon, Charley following along with her. She showed him her finger, and he allowed them to go up to the office together to get a bandage for her.¨

(Third person)


Charley and Mille (or should I say Marley??!?!?!) went out into the school yard and into the main building. Once they entered the office, a woman in her mid 40's greeted them.
"Hello. What can I do for y'all today?"
Charley took a step forward, "just a bandage, please."
"Oh, yes, of course," she opened a drawer. "How big does it need to be?" she asked.
Mille showed the lady her finger, "not too big."
"What happened?" She asked her as she was cutting out a small piece from the bandage roll.
"I just cut myself during food tech," Mille replied.
The lady nodded and gave Charley the bandage, "take great care."

They both left the office, and once they walked through the doorframe, Charley turned around to face Mille. "No worries, I'll put it on you," he smiled at her. Due to his height, he slightly kneel down, and put the bandage on her. Once he was finished, he looked her in the eyes, giving her a soft smile.
