The Hyenas - Chapter 1
Trash51 days before MT's graduation/ 72 days before West Campus' graduation (April 3,2019)
It's a Wednesday, and it's raining. Something feels a bit gloomy. Somehow, everyone felt it. The last time we skyped was on Sunday, but today felt different. It was dark outside, no music, but homework piled up on the desk. The Hyenas somehow felt it, and decided to Skype today.
Cassie: can you guys believe we're graduating soon.. feels just like yesterday that we were freshmens.
Victoria: yeah. all this senior presentation work due ugh..
Rita: im actually doing my work for once hehhehehe
Kathy: remember when you had an F in biology FOR NOT TURNING IN YOUR HOMEWORK
Rita: that was 3 years ago okay.
As we quietly finished our work after 4 hours, we decided to talk about our plans for the future.
Cassie: so. what colleges did you guys get accepted to?
Victoria: UC Davis babyyy
Kathy: UCLA
Rita: UC Davis
Cassie: ah..
Rita: what about you cassie?
Cassie: FIDM in los angeles
Then it suddenly hit me. I've expected this time to come ever since we've known each other, that one day, we would suddenly be seperated. High school was already hard enough for me to get through. Meeting new friends, but we were able to meet each other on holidays and special occasions. But different cities? How would that turn out?
Cassie: soo. remember what we talked about in freshmen year?
Kathy: what? the trip?
Cassie: yeah
Victoria: oh hell yes what the heck
Cassie: are you guys still up for it?
Kathy: hell ya
Victoria: same
Rita: me too
Cassie: THEN LETS FINISH THIS YEAR STRONG. MAKE IT THE BEST OUT OF OUR LAST DAYS IN HIGH SCHOOL.
Kathy: HWAITING!!!
Victoria: hold on i needa take a ... - walks out -
Rita: really victoria
Kathy: i guess she has a bowel problem
Cassie: i swear she's constipated like every day
Victoria: - in hallway - I CAN HEAR YOU
Cassie: GOOD
Rita: I think we should buy her medicine for her poop problem
Victoria: I CAN STILL HEAR YOU!!!!
Rita: YOU'RE GONNA DIE ONE DAY FROM TAKING A ALL THE TIME!!!
Kathy: PWAAAAHAHAHHAHAHAH
Victoria: - runs back - ok im good
Cassie: OKAY. where should we go?
Victoria: africa
Cassie: got the money?
Victoria: no
Cassie: thats what i thought
Rita: ooh hawaii!
Cassie: GOT THE MONEY? nevermind you do
Rita: ehhehehe
Kathy: lets go to george sims
Cassie: i agree
Victoria: wtf
Rita: AHAHAHAHAH
Kathy: I VOTE L.A
Cassie: me too
Victoria: OH YES
Rita: sure!
Cassie: OK. OK. WE GOT IT. WE TOTALLY GOT IT. L.A IT IS. JUST AS WE PLANNED 3 YEARS AGO.
For some reason, the atmosphere felt weird, as if things have changed ever since we were freshmen. From laughing a lot, to suddenly noticing that we never once thought about our trip during the years of high school. It was as if we had been washed with stress, and nothing but homework and projects. But yet, we still knew in our hearts that even if we weren't able to Skype everyday, little things reminded us of each other, like trash. Seeing a trash can wasn't just something we saw as throwing things in. It was a symbol that we were able to clean up the community, and help the environment. Trash is a very hardworking object. It smells, but it's there for us to throw our things in. Things we don't want, or things we have to throw. It reminded us of each other. But why?
Kathy: DUDEE!! LETS DO THE VACATION RENTAL HOUSES. WE DONT NEED THE HOTELS. ITS CHEAPER.
Victoria: OH YEAH!!!
Rita: but my uncle is the head of the Mariott in L.A.. we can get a discount
Kathy: a discount for $10
Rita: true. but its nice and free breakfast.
Victoria: girl we can go to costco and get some food.
Rita: here we go again..
Victoria: in fact, we don't even need a vacation rental. we have a car for a reason.
Rita: YOU WANT US TO SLEEP IN A FREAKING CAR?! WHERE ARE WE GONNA PEE?!
Victoria: uhm hello. mcdonalds.
Kathy: the drive thru is only 24/7, not the store
Victoria: bushes duh?
Cassie: great idea. i hope a snake bites your cheeks.
Victoria: HEY
Rita: i hope for that to happen too
Kathy: lets just do the vacation home rental, its easier
Cassie: same
Victoria: but its so expensive
Kathy: BRUH. YOUR ANIME POSTER WAS $100. AND WHY WAS IT $100? BECAUSE IT GAVE FREE ANIME STICKERS?
Victoria: hey it gave me 5 packs of free stickers
Rita: someone punch her
Cassie: i volunteer as tribute
Victoria: wow ok
Cassie: okay. lets all talk about this on friday. lets all go to sleep, and get ready for school tomorrow again. WE CAN DO THIS OKAY. KEEP THIS FOR MOTIVATION
