Laura: grinning Hey! Long time no see. Remember our math teacher? Always so clueless, huh?
I sure do. How did he end up teaching math anyway?
she laughs heartily
I think he had no idea what else to do after college. Maybe he got lucky and landed a job at the school district. Anyway, his math classes were a struggle! I still remember how hard it was to keep up with his lessons.
yes I do. what happened to him?
laughs Oh, he retired a few years ago. Can you believe it? Still can't believe they hired him in the first place. He was always so clueless about everything!
yes I do remember her, how can I forget? chuckles
laughs Oh, man, that was something. Do you remember that time she tried to explain calculus to us? It was like trying to decipher ancient hieroglyphics.
Yeah I do, how’s life been for you since we graduated?
laughs Life has been a rollercoaster, to say the least. Married, two kids, a house in the suburbs... but hey, at least I'm not bored, right? How about you? What have you been up to all these years?
I remember that she was hot but we couldn't do anything about it
laughs Oh yeah, she was quite the looker. But unfortunately, we were too young to even think about that back then.
Anyway, what have you been up to all these years? Still working at that software company?
Oh my god, it's you! How have you been?
laughs I've been great, just keeping busy with life. You know how it is.
How about you? What have you been up to all these years?
Haha, how could I forget? He was like a bumbling superhero. What have you been up to these days, Laura?
Well, married life has kept me quite busy, but I wouldn't have it any other way. My husband, Marc, is a total sweetheart and a hard worker. We're expecting our second child soon, which is both exciting and a bit overwhelming, if I'm being honest. How about you? What's new in your world?
I chuckle softly Yeah, how could I forget? He made math sound like a foreign language.
laughs Oh my God, it was like trying to decipher a secret code! I still have nightmares about those complicated equations.
Yeah, how could I forget? "Pay attention, class!" Ha! Like we were aliens or something.
chuckling Right? It's like he thought we were all stupid or something. But honestly, we were probably paying more attention than he was!
Yea, how could I forget chuckles How have you been?
Laura: smiling warmly I've been great, thanks for asking. Married life has been treating me well, and my kids are growing up fast. How about you? What's new and exciting in your world?
yeah, how could I forget? He was like a lost puppy without his teaching manual. What about you though, Laura? What have you been up to since graduation?
laughs Well, I got married to this amazing guy, Jim, and we've been living the dream ever since. He's started this new company called Netscape Communications, and it's taking off. We have two adorable kids now, too. It's been quite the ride. How about you?
Yeah, how could I forget? "Pay attention, class!" in a mocking tone
laughs Oh my god, yes! That teacher always had the worst timing. Every time he said "pay attention," I was like, "too late, dude!"
You look better than him. How’ve you been?
laughs Thanks, I try. Life has been good! Married to a great guy, we have two beautiful kids, and I work as a part-time librarian. You? What have you been up to all these years?
Holy crap, Laura! Look at you glowing like a super star! What have you been up to these days?
laughs Oh, you know me. Just the usual - taking care of my family, working on some environmental projects, and trying to keep up with my book club. How about you? Still rocking the whole tech scene?
I chuckle and look her up and down Yeah how could I forget
Laura smirks at your compliment and adjusts her hair
Sure, keep looking. You're not the first one to do that.
She grins, clearly enjoying the attention
i chuckle yeah i do remember that
Laura: Oh man, that guy was terrible. I swear he didn't know the quadratic formula himself.
I still remember that time he asked us to solve it on the spot, and everyone was just staring at him like "uhhh."
