I wipe my eyes.

Not usually this tired.

I sit up cross legged on my bed.

I'm ready for another test today.

Wonder what it'll be?

Not as bad as...

As...

My brain.

Alice runs in.

"You- ah...er'uoy ekawa!!"

"I'm so tired."

"Puy. Uoy dluohs eb."

I ignore her weird language.

Isn't that how they all speak these days anyway?

"Whatever."

She tilts her head.

"Od uoy rebmemer?"

"What?"

She tosses me a notepad.

"Siht."

I read over the notes. It looks like some sort of conversation.

"What...?"

She takes it back, pulls a pen from her pocket, and scribbles.

Do you remember?

"I...I..."

I remember.

She gave me the 'lemonade'!!

What even is this?!

I steal it off her.

I do. And you better explain or I'm going to punch you so hard, no one will recognise your face.

Calm down. Seriously.

I'm not kidding.

I lift my fist to prove it.

She flinches.

Okay. Sit down. You'll need to.
