"Hey have you heard of that new drug?" "Oh yeah, the focus drug?" "Adderall?" "No the one that practically give you eidetic memory." "I hear that it makes you ten times more attractive." "I hear that it has no side effects." "Then it's bull crap and it doesn't work." "No no Teal I'm sure it's real and it does have a side effect. Only one though and it's almost impossible to encounter." "Okay? Spit it out!" "On Heat you should never run into your soulmate." "Oh great then I guess it's perfectly safe because Soulmates don't exist." "According to you." "No, according to science! What happens if you do run into them then?" "No one knows." "Whatever. Sounds bogus to me. Why mention it?" "My cousin has some. She just got it from her doctor." "Uh... I don't think a medical professional should prescribe street drugs." "It's to treat her depression. It gives you purpose or makes you normal or whatever. Anyways I can steal some before midterms. We should try it. One dose lasts a whole month." "We're honor's students. Why would we need drugs to pass? Shouldn't we know that drugs are almost always the way to fail?" "Why just pass when we could graduate early?" "Graduate early? Does it do that?" "That's only the half of it. We'll be on top of the world with it and it doesn't come up on drug tests. Whose in?" I bite my lip. Teal's in the top ten of our year so she can get by on her own. I'm in the bottom half of the honors students. If anything, I need this or I won't be an honor's student for long. "I'm in."
