(Tuesday, 7:30AM, LA)

I trudge into school, yawning slightly. Caleb walks up to me, smiling. "Buongiorno, Riley!" He says.

"Morning, Caleb." I sigh. Caleb frowns slightly. "I take it you don't like Tuesdays, then?" He says. I shake my head, heading into our Maths class. Caleb takes a seat at out table, pulling out his exercise book. Melody and Leo trudge in, sighing. "Odio mi vida." Leo says. Caleb laughs. "What did he say?" Melody asks. "He said he hates his life." He answers. I whack Leo. "Don't say that. You're turning into Maxine and her group." I say sternly. Leo rubs his arm. "Sorry." He says sheepishly. Melody giggles.

(12:30PM)

The bell rings for the end of school. We all jump up, racing to the gates. Dad smiles at me. I hug everyone, smiling. "Bye, guys!" I say. I get into the car, shutting the door and putting my seatbelt on. Dad pulls away, driving down the road. "Did you have a good day, sweetheart?" Dad asks me. I shrug. "It was alright I suppose. Nothing special happened." I say. Dad chuckles. "Well tomorrow's a new day." He says. We turn the corner, driving down our road before pulling into our driveway. Dad parks the car. I take off my seatbelt before getting out of the car, heading into the house. Papa is standing by the stairs. I run over to him, hugging him tightly.

"Hi, Papa. Did you have a good day?" I ask him. Papa chuckles, kissing my forehead. "It was okay. I had to chase after Maxine to see why she was not in school." He says. I frown. "But Maxine lives in Montana." I say. Papa sighs. "Daniel's house flooded so Max stays in her old room." He tells me. I nod. The front bursts open.

Maxine and her group walk in, looking around. Papa sighs. "Max, why weren't you in school?" He says. Maxine shrugs. "I didn't wanna go in. You can't force me." She says. I roll my eyes. "Roll your eyes one more time and I'll stick toothpicks in them." Ashlee says. I flinch. Papa sighs. "Well, I suppose it's fine. Daniel will be here soon. He says he has something to tell you." Papa says. Maxine shrugs. "Whatever." Her and her group head upstairs, grinning at each other. I growl slightly at them. Cameron growls back louder, making me jump. I sit down on the steps, sighing.
