"Lorn!"

"Lorn! Oh my God! He's awake! Mom!"

"Lorn!"

"Lorn's awake!"

The boy who just opened his eyes kept hearing. Who is Lorn? Why do they keep mentioning his name?

His eyes looked at them faintly through his half closed eyelids. Who are these people? Where was I? He asked himself.

Am I somewhere closer to...

"Hey Lorn! Do you plan on joining the basketball varsity team?" Lorn's friend Brad asked him while they enter the classroom they were designated to.

"Uh... Maybe," Lorn timidly replied.

"Maybe? Are you kidding me? You play good..."

Lorn couldn't hear Brad anymore as soon as he saw who was smiling at him inside the classroom.

"Hey! Are you even listening?" Brad snapped, but as soon as he saw what Lorn was staring at he shake his head side to side and face palmed. His mate is really into the class nerd and so he let him go.

Lorn smiled at the lady he's staring straight at. Well, he's actually on his way to her, leaving Brad behind. He knows his mate understands and plus they'll talk later. They're on the same room anyways.

"Gordemorgen!" Lorn greeted her in Dutch.

The lady grinned at him. "Buenos Días señor," she greeted back. "¿Cómo estás?"

Lorn is half Mexican, reason why she greeted him in Spanish. The girl was not Dutch, but she's studying Dutch for some reason.

"Muy bien, señora. Anyways, do you plan on going somewhere later?"

Lorn has been asking this lady for a while now but she would always have an excuse up on her sleeve.

"Uhm..." she started tapping a pen on her desk as Lorn's fingers were crossed. "I guess we could be at somewhere later. Say, are you going to treat me fries and sundae?"

Lorn breathes out nervousness and chuckled. "Of course I would if you come with me."

"Sure would."

Lorn plunges his eyes open again but this time his breathing was fast and heavy.

"Mom! Lorn's wide awake!"

"Mom hurry!"

He could hear that voice from earlier shout hysterically again. It must be from someone dear to him.

Now he understands, now he know... he is Lorn but who was she?
