Zak and Samira began walking to school. Using the same path they always walked through. There was a certain pathway in the park that led straight to the school, Zak loved walking through here.
Not only because it was less busy, but he loved the scenery. He would always take pictures, not as high quality as his own camera, but the phone camera worked just as well.
Usually Samira would come up with a concept to talk about. Each day was a different topic and Zak loved this.
They even came up with silly games.
Todays topic was the snow. Zak had showed Samira, the snowman he and Darryl made this morning.
Samira was a little worried about Zak building a snowman with a guy she had never met, Although Zak had assured her that this guy looked to be around Zak's age and was fairly kind.
Samira decided to trust Zak, hiding her worries.
They were about 3 minutes away from school. Zak looked at the time.

Zak also saw the group's messages. Everybody asking where they are. Zak found it funny how they still got lost despite meeting up at the same place everyday since the beginning of the school year.
They were all freshmans, successfully passed middle school.
Zak hates the idea of school, but he knew his schedule was fairly good.
1st - College credit/ Ib prep English
2nd - Algebra 1
3rd - Biology
4th - Band
5th - Art
6th - RTI Math
7th - Spanish
He never really cared for his classes. He also really hated Math. He complained about that on the first day of school, he thinks it was pointless to add letters into math.
Which is one of the reasons why he has a class for extra help in math. Despite having decent grades, his test grade for math was lower than Science or ELA.
His strong suit was English, He loved to write and read. He understands words rather than numbers. His weak suit is Math. Specifically word problems. Despite having a way with words, his ability to understand how to format an equation from the very few numbers they use in the made up situation was below average. He understands Algebra though, solving for x, etc. He doesn't mind the work, not at all. He just needs some help.
He wished that his friends were good at math, but frankly, they all had their weak suits. Arran (Vurb) struggled doing division, especially with decimals. George (Spifey) was actually good at math and was in geometry, but he hated doing geometric equations. Jake (Zelk) hated decimals as a whole (get it). And Dylan (Mega) was really good at math and geometry, he just wasn't cooperative, or particularly motivated.
Besides all of that, School wasn't something he stressed about. He had a routine he couldn't break. He studied normally even if he was bored. He always did his homework, work in class, used his time wisely, etc. Somehow he still managed to be able to hang out with his friends, special school events, his clubs, and his hobbies.

As Zak and Samira got lost in the convo, they had made it to the front of the school. They split up, both going off to see their friends. Zak walked towards the back of the school, to a bench by the big tree, Where his friends were waiting for him. He saw them and they waved. Everyone was there. He sat down and began talking to them.
They talked about the remaining homework, big tests/projects coming up, and also Zak's newest additions to his photo gallery. He was praised for the pictures and good quality, which was what they always said. He appreciated it, until they got to the picture with Darryl.
