Hearts

Activities

        After Eve leaves, I go back to my bed. I sit down, on my bed and take the stupid heels off. Just standing in those heel for like two minutes make my feet cramp up. How do they expect us to fight in them?

        With a sigh, I put the heels back on and go out to the main room. It's a pretty big room I would say the size of a theater, but with no stage or chair. I see dummies lined up against one of the wall and some weight room equipment. In another corner I see some mats rolled up, but other then that it's bare.

        I head into the classroom area next to see what I should expect for tomorrow. On one wall is a gigantic chalkboard. In the corner to the right of the door is a desk and a file cabinet. Then, of coarse there are chairs. It looks like a normal class except with nothing on the walls.

        I look at the cafeteria last, for there is food in there and after I get food I don't think I'll leave. On the wall opposite of the door there are the windows where you can pick up your food. There are three long table that take up must if the room, making it hard to move.

        Mostly everybody is sitting down already when I get my food. Now I need to find where to sit. The table closes to the door has one side where nobody is sitting, so I decide to sit there. As I sit down I realize how much quieter it is here than any other place in the cafeteria. I smile as i enjoy the peace.

        "Hi," that simple word shatters the peace and I look up in annoyance. "I was just wondering if people were gonna sit here or if i could sit down. Also is something wrong?"

        "Yeah you can sit here. Nothings wrong you just startled me."

         Thanks. Also your startled face looks like you want to punch somebody in the face."

        "Thanks for letting me know I'll work on it, I guess."

        "No problem. My name is Jack by the way. What's yours?"

        "Jojo."

        "That's a pretty name. How did your parents pick your name?"

        Will this boy ever shut up? "My dad's mom died right before I was born, so they named me after her."

        "Wow that deep. When i was born my parents thought I looked like a Jack. This food is really good. What do you think of it?"

        Can he possible keep his mouth shut. "It's pretty good but my mom's cooking is better."

        "Your mom can cook? My mom is a terrible cook. She almost burned down the house once. After that almost fatal incident we got a private chef."

        Before Jack could utter another unbearable word out of his mouth, Eve walks in with some guy and claps her hands. The whole room goes silent and everybody gives their full attention to Eve and the guy.

        Eve starts, "Hi, my name is Eve and this is Robert. I hope you guys have had a good lunch. In a few minutes I would like you guys to head to the main room, where we will be doing a few activities. Usually the girls and the guys will train separately but for today we will have a few activities where  both genders work together. We have already planed groups assigned based on the reason you were selected. Now if you haven't already put your tray in the wash station please do so after this. Then head out to the main room. You are free to go."

        The first thought that hits me why did they choose me and for what reason. Also, who did they choose that is like me. I hope that who ever I am with isn't the complete opposite as me. I just want to make at least one friend, who I know won't try to kill me to get to the top.
