Conjoined

Chapter 4

"And time, please hand in your test." Miss Merijo said.

The test wasn't so hard, I think that Both of us did pretty well... Unless you count Olivia's handwriting. Since she is on the left she had to write with our left hand. So, the test ended looking like the way a three-year-old writes.

Hopefully, Miss Merijo can read that.

"Um, Olivia, Why does your writing look like you have never held a pen before?" Miss Merijo said, her voice rose as she spoke further. 

"I...um, I'm not really used to writing with my left hand." 

"Then why write with your left hand?"

"Miss Merijo, We are one person it's hard for us to both use our right hand if we both need to write something at the same time."

"Oh, I didn't realise how difficult it was. Perhaps it's time you were registered as one person so it makes it easier for you to do your work."

"That would be nice."

"Okay, I will talk to Principal Alfero about it."

"Thank you."

"Um excuse me Miss merry-go-round, I've like been waiting for Like forever to hand in my test," Stacey said holding up her paper in the air.

"First of all it's Merijo, and you must be patient."

"UGH whatevs," Stacey said putting her test on the pile and sassily walking back to her seat.

"Oh, it's time for you to go to P.E." Miss Merijo said.

"Okay class, I will see you tomorrow." 

At the lockers

"UGH, We're doing lapse today," Sheera said opening her locker.

"Oh no," Daria said as she banged her head on her locker.

"Daria, I know it sucks but you don't have to hurt yourself.

"No, it's not that. I forgot to bring my stuff."

"Oh no, miss Hollins isn't going to like that."

"Yeah... why do you think I'm banging my head for?"

"Well, we better go get changed," Darelyn says heading towards the change rooms.

After we changed we headed down to the oval.

"Okay class, today you will be running around doing lapse."

Everyone in the class started to groan except for some of the people who actually like running.

"I know it's probably not everyone's favourite thing to do, but try to do your best." 

"But why, can't we do our worst? I mean like what's the point of getting your hair messy?" Stacey said filing her nails and blowing on them.

"Well, it's important to do it because..." Miss Hollins stopped talking because Stacey fell asleep and snored very loudly.

"Well then, you guys can start." 

"Three, two, one...Go!" Miss Hollins said blowing her whistle in Stacey's ear.

"AAAAAGHHHHH" Stacey said screaming.

"GO!" Miss Hollins said.

"Oh my god, okay okay, take a chill pill," Stacey said as she started to jog very slowly.

Running is kind of hard for us. You see, we each control parts of our body. Jolie controls the right side, Olivia controls the left side. So, we kind of have to tell ourselves, Right foot, left foot, right foot, left foot... yeah it's really annoying. But hey, we got our own sports team name. Conjoined-sporting. Well, Technically it's supposed to be an insulting name from miss Sekras (another P.E teacher). She always called us that if we did something weird. Well, what would she do if she was conjoined? We would have loved to say that, but if we did we would have gotten detention. Anyways back to running...

"AGH, I'm so tired," Stacey said walking.

"Um, you do know that you are walking right?" Sheera said, panting.

  "Yeah well, it's like hard okay?" 

After 30 minutes Miss Hollins got out her whistle and blew, which meant that P.E had ended.

We were finally done. We had to run 10k's!!! I sure hope we don't have to run THAT MUCH in cross country. 

"Well done everyone, see you all tomorrow," Miss Hollins said.

"I'm so glad that's over," Darelyn said.

"Dido," Sarah says.

"Are you guys staying at the library?" Sheera said to everyone.

"Nope, have to catch the bus," Daria said.

"I'm staying at the library," Darelyn and Sarah reply.

"What about you Olivia-Jolie?" 

"Looks like it," Our mum won't pick us up till five.

"Well then let's go," Sheera said.

"Oh my god like, wait for me guys," Stacey said running towards us.

"Um, why? You never stay at the library," Sarah says.

"Well Scoolly Hocker bailed on our mani-pedis so looks like I'll be like staying here." 

"Great..." We all said sarcastically.

"Well come on let's get our nerd on."

"Seriously?" we said.

"Olivia-Jolie..." A whispering voice said.

We suddenly felt something cold touch our shoulder.

We turned around and noticed a strange student on the oval. 

"You're next..." She said looking at us. 

"Hey, something wrong?" Darelyn said.

We turned back and saw that nobody was there.

"No... everything is fine..." We said uncertainly.

"Okay, well, let's go."
