#simone cooper

it was always incredible to see just how well everyone could co-exist together. half the town was invaded in the school, but there were still so many who were helping behind the scenes - aliza made a mental note to ensure she could get a team together to write thank you notes for each and every person who did - and while eating breakfast in the cafeteria wasn’t exactly how she envisioned her saturday morning, a couple of pancakes and a banana were certainly not the worst thing she could have had. 

most tables were filled with families - her own were still asleep, curled up in their space in the gym, late to rise as always - but she managed to find a space next to simone, sliding in after ensuring the spot was indeed free and settling in easily. 

“this is crazy, right?” she asked, a laugh tumbling out as she opened her carton of apple juice - “i don’t think i’ve eaten in a cafeteria since i was at this high school, and let me tell you, the food quality better have improved since then.”
