"I cannot believe I got invited to Cathrine Roghers's
séance...thing," Ren complained, walking out of geometry class
with Ruby and Nelson. "I mean Cathrine is so...so..."
"Geeky?" asked Ruby, finishing Ren's sentence.
"Well, yeah, you know I wouldn't want to say it out loud...I don't want to hurt her feelings or anything."
"Yeah, well I wouldn't feel bad because," said Nelson pulling a note out of his pant pocket. "I got invited too."
"Oh, thank God!" said Ren relieved and turning her combination on her locker. "I'm so glad that I won't be the only normal person there."
"Well, I'm glad I didn't get invited," said Ruby.
Ren stopped trying to open her locker because of a familiar heavy breathing behind the three of them. They turned around to find none other than Cathrine.
"Here you go, Ruby," she slurred through her huge metal braces. "An invitation to my totally cool séance Friday night. We're going to bring back the lives of our ancestors!"
Trying not to breathe through her nose because of Cathrine's bad breath, Ruby smiled and took the note. "Heh...thanks Cathrine."
"No problem, dude!" said Cathrine, her hand up and mimicking Mr. Spock. She finally left and Ren, Ruby, and Nelson could breathe again.
"Well, would you look at that," said Nelson.
"Whatever, Nelson," Ruby smiled.
Ren went back to turning her combination. She opened her locker and a pink note fell to her feet. She stared at it, her mouth open.
"Oh my God! Ren got a love letter! Ooooh! Who from, who from?!" cried Ruby.
"Now, Ruby, It might not be a love letter," said Ren picking up the note. She opened it and read it silently to herself first.
Ren finished reading the letter and just looked at it, her jaw basically dropped to the ground.
"I...think I'm going to be sick," Ren said, dropping the letter and running to the bathroom.
Ruby and Nelson stared at each other. "Read it!" said Nelson.
Ruby picked up the note and read it quietly out loud so only Nelson could hear:
Dear Ren,
I know since the beginning of seventh grade we've been competing against each other.
And I was wondering if you wanted to change all that. You know, start over?
If you can, meet me at my locker after 5th period.

Ruby and Nelson raced to the bathroom to find Ren.
