*Math Class*

Maël, a soon ten years old boy, is almost sleeping during class, which is not very surprising. His best friend, Nila, already ten years old, is taking as much notes as possible, like usual. Maël always lands on Nila to explain him most of what they learn at school because he has lots of difficulties understanding when the teachers teach their things. Only Nila knows how to perfectly explain how Maël will understand.
The class ends, it's the end of the day, so everyone goes home, except for Maël and Nila. They always enjoy staying at school after the end of the day, they have the whole school playground for themselves, and it's often really calm, quiet. They don't do much, they just sit on swings and sometimes talk, watching the sunset coming slowly but surely.
Then they walk home together since they are neighbors, say goodbye and wish eachother a good meal and night.
At home, for Maël it's quite calm, since he is a single child, and his mother is always off for work or something like that, he never really knew. For Nila, it's hard to find calm in her house, because she has two older brothers, one younger brother and a younger sister.
And it's the same cycle everyday since they were both seven. They are the only real friend the other has, and they both hope it will never change.
