Monday morning went by very slow. Emma would look at the clock and the
hands would be moving backwards. Lunch finally came after what had seemed
hours. "Thank god!" Emma said to Manny as they exited the classroom. "Why
are you in such a hurry to get out of here?" "Sean's getting released!"
Emma said happily. "Really? Already? They're just gonna let him go?" "Well,
there's nothing else that they can do for him. There is no internal
bleeding so everything is fine!" "Okay. Where do you want to sit?" Manny
asked as they entered the cafeteria. "I don't care."
They set their stuff down at an empty table. They were shortly joined by JT and Toby. "Hey guys," Toby said, "where were you all weekend?" "Around..." Emma replied airily. She didn't want to tell them anything. "Hey EM," JT began, "where is Sean today?" "How should I know?" Emma snapped. JT and Toby both looked at her. "What?" Emma asked, "I don't have to know his whereabouts every second!" "He's your boyfriend." Toby said bluntly, eyeing her curiously. "Something happen EM?" he asked. "No. Besides, I don't have to tell you everything do I?" Emma was starting to get mean. "Emma, we're your friends. Just wanted to know what was going on." Toby said. "Not really. And do I go asking about you and Kendra?" "EM.." Manny said. Emma was getting way out of line. "That's what you really think?" JT asked. "We're not really friends?" "Nice Emma, real nice." Toby said. They got up and walked out of the cafeteria. "Emma!" Manny exclaimed as soon as the boys left. "Why did you do that? They're like never going to speak to us again!" "Not a big loss." Emma said cooly.
"Manny, trust me, we are better off without them!" "EM, maybe you're better off without them, but I'm not. You know, not everyone has a new found love like you. As far as I'm concerned, I need all the friends that I can get. I think that you should be thinking the same thing." Manny got up and started to walk. "Manny!" Emma called but Manny acted as if she didn't hear. Emma sat there, alone. She didn't know what to think. Did she lose Manny? Was Manny going to find JT and Toby? Would she be back? Emma didn't know. What she did know was that she had an uncontrollable urge to go and see Sean. "Just two more hours." Emma told herself. Her next class was math. She couldn't miss math. Then she remembered that it was just a study period! Just then, Emma jumped as end of lunch bell rang.
Emma got up and acted casual as she headed the opposite direction from her classmates. Emma turned into the entrance hall and towards the front doors. Just then, Mr. Raditch came out of the men's washroom. They smacked right into each other.
