This chapter has been revised... completely. (grins sheepishly)

Molly-chan the Anime/game fan - I appreciate the gifts. Thank you so much.
KAylen - Ouch. (winces) I know that you have good intentions but I can't help but flinch. (grins sheepishly) I edited everything so perhaps... it's... a bit better? Anyways, thanks again for the advice. I'm definitely taking it. (grins)
Chapter Five:
A Different Perspective
"Open your books to page fifty-six and do questions one through twenty."
I nodded half-heartedly, reluctantly turning to the said page.
Scanning through the questions on the page, I sighed and picked up my pencil.
"While you are answering these questions, I will be calling out role-call."
I stared at the first question for a moment.
What are your priorities?
My pencil lingered above the paper as I gazed out of the window, eyeing the diminutive raindrops that slid down the pane.
"Masaki, Anzu."
I immediately scanned the room, searching for a brunette woman that never came.
I regarded the vacant seat in front of me with an impassive stare and then craned my neck to look at the pail of frigid water that still hung just above the door.
The teacher then called out another name, never pausing to question anybody if they have seen the absent girl.
I looked at the empty seat once more. A feeling of guilt nabbed at my stomach.
"--Is there a problem?"
I blinked and glanced up at the teacher whose arms were crossed. "No..."
She lifted an eyebrow before turning away to check on another of her pupil's progress.
I struggled not to glance at the seat in front of me again.
It's a waste of time.
I looked down on my bare sheet of paper and not quite sure of my answer, skipped to the second question.
It's a waste of time.
End Chapter
deity: This is a very brief chapter, don't you think? (blinks) It's probably the shortest chapter I've ever written. (grins) But I had to put something down. Something that was relevant to the plot(Plot? What plot?...Oh... that plot.). And you should know that this wasn't Anzu's POV at all....
Anyways...
I feel obligated to apologize to everyone that has read my past notes in this chapter(Now replaced by this revised chapter.), especially to KAylen. I'm sorry, really I am. I was only twelve years old when I first started this fanfic, and thinking irrationally was a constant for me, as well as being inconsiderate. So... yeah... I hope that you'll accept my apology. So other than that, all I have to say is...
(clears throat) This chapter has been revised. (How many times have I declared this? ...Dear Kami... I've lost track...)
