His voice always sounded straightforward, and he never showed a weak face like this. And when Alex was so weak on Ruby it upset Helena so much that she could see how much Alex loved Ruby.“ Yes, she was. Now I’m leaving, so I don’t have to see your face. Being weak or stupid is up to you, but you better not waste time chasing people who don’t love you. It’s not going to work, I’m also thinking of giving up.” Helena said then left in a move of annoyance.Now it’s just Ruby and Alex in the classroom. A moment of silence filled the atmosphere.

“It’s so nice to be able to skip class, right?” said Drake with a smile.“ I’m not one to miss class, but I have to admit that extra practice this time is pretty fun. I don’t really like math either.” Said Natty.“Why do you like to say things convoluted? Let’s just say you like it because you can skip math class.” Drake said while staring at Natty and Natty just nodded her head while smiling thinly.During that extra practice they practiced in earnest.
