Jeez, last week sure was a handful.
It would be nice to have a day to calm down and look around the city to get used to it.
Thankfully, today wouldn't be too bad.
...
Right?
As I heard the bells of the last lesson ring by, I quickly gathered my things and hurried to leave towards the office.
The school isn't too far away, about 15 or so minutes of walking, so I took that time to just focus on what's in front of me and my thoughts, or, to be more precise, what had changed.
The people I made and the impressions they made,
The new environment I'll have to learn to embrace,
The weight that I now carry on my shoulders...
The balance in this city is now my responsibility,
But thankfully,
I don't have to carry it all alone.
I have people on my side to help me.
I've arrived in the office, and before I could even begin greeting everyone--
"THIS IS IT, CHIEEFF!!"
Zapp shouted.
He was up to his usual antics of trying to attack Mr. Klaus, with an emphasis on 'trying'.
"It's amazing that he's as stupid as to not give up"
Chain sighed, materializing on top of his head.
As her weight returned to normal, Zapp dropped to the floor in pain.
"Goddamnit, She-bitch."
Zapp cried silently.
I sighed.
Another thing I'll have to get used to.
"Oh, good afternoon, Lizz."
Chain greeted me once she noticed me, standing in front of her, who still stood on top of Zapp.
"How's your day?"
"My day's been well, but I think I know someone whose day isn't going so smoothly."
I chuckled, implying to Zapp.
"At least someone in this damn place doesn't view me as a nuisance."
Zapp sighed with a smile as Chain finally got off his head, and he could stand without having to carry her weight on top of him.
"Thanks, kid!"
I grinned.
That smile...
He really does embody both James and Dad...
"No problem, Zapp."
I replied.
I sat down on the couch, setting my bag on the floor near.
"Um... Sorry to ask you, Mr. Klaus, but is it okay if I do some homework here?"
I asked.
He simply turned to me and nodded.
I thanked him, and quickly pulled out a pencil and textbooks, flipping through the pages to find the last of what I've worked on in class, I take my time solving the questions.
Without me noticing, Zapp had been looking through my shoulder to see what I'm doing.
"Uh, Kid. This is wrong."
He brought to my attention.
"This here is supposed to be a plus, not a minus. And you really shouldn't have used this technique to solve this question, it just causes you more trouble."
He sat next to me, just like a tutor would.
"Here, let me show you a better way to solve this."
For the next few minutes, Zapp taught me a way to solve questions that wasn't taught at schools but are way easier and way more efficient.
