The Dib-Beast wasn't here today… how odd. The bell rang, and Zim waited patiently, expecting Dib to run in late because of Big-Feets or something. Dib never came.

In the cafeteria, Zim picked up a spoon full of beans and prepared to launch them at Dib. He looked to where Dib sits, but didn't see him. Zim sighed and set the spoon down, playing absently with his food.

After skool, he waited a few minutes for Dib so the fool could chase him home, but then he remembered Dib's absence. Zim sighed and walked home with his head hung low.
