The day could by far, do a lot better for Aaron at this point. The night before he had been up watching movies and thus didn’t have quite enough energy to sustain him through class. And if being whacked on the head with an eraser after nodding off wasn’t embarrassing enough, he just had to forget his math homework in his locker, allowing his teacher to give a long-winded speech about how vigilance and making effort during class was important. To Aaron, simply staying awake in that class took a lot of effort, sleep deprived or not.
Furthermore, he was quite rudely ridiculed in front of the class when he couldn’t answer a question in when he was forced to solve a problem at the board for falling asleep. ”What good is knowing derivatives anyways?” he thought to himself, picking at his food with his fork. It certainly didn’t do anything to move him closer to the Champagnes. Nothing was going his way today. In fact, he was stuck eating in the cafeteria with everyone else. It was all because his precious Mercedes-Benz was off getting some maintenance done, leaving him no choice but to sit and eat at the cafeteria like all the other commoners.
”Ick,” he said as he turned a piece of brocolli over. It was cooked way too soft and tasted… well it just tasted poor to him. Sulking, Aaron put his fork down and ran his hand through his hair irritably. He didn’t even feel that hungry anyways. Staring blankly in front of him, he let the surroundings simply wash over him. There were so many people that it was uncomfortable and they were really all people he found too below him to associate with. All four years, Aaron had been seeking a way into the Champagnes, but now graduation was visible and it didn’t seem very possible for Aaron to climb into the Champagne clique without a miracle. Groaning, Aaron buried his face in hands, elbows dug onto the hard, plastic table.
Things could certainly be going better.
