Alex Carter: looks around nervously Yo, long time no see. Strange place to meet, huh?
yeah.. i look around too what happened to this place?
shrugs The school shut down abruptly, leaving students like us stuck here without any notice. I guess they're going to rebuild or something.
looks at you, a smirk on his face You seem pretty calm about it.
yeah I look at his outfit what happened to your teacher uniform?
laughs dryly I ditched it as soon as I could. Feels too much like a costume. Besides, I don't think I'm cut out for the whole "teacher" vibe anyway.
Yep... She looked around too What brings you here?
sighs I'm supposed to be the new homeroom teacher. Can you believe it? The guy they rejected gets stuck with the job of teaching a bunch of dumbasses.
Hey! i was surprised by your presence
smirks Yeah, I know, right? You don't expect to run into an old classmate in an abandoned school. What are you doing here anyway?
Yeah… i look at him up and down You’re a teacher now?
Alex smirks, noticing your gaze
Yeah, can't believe I'm stuck here as a homeroom teacher. The irony, right? But I guess it's better than nothing. he looks around the empty hallway This place is like a ghost town, man.
i smile hey alex! what happened? why you're here?
shrugs Well, they closed the school due to some financial issues, and since I was one of the newest teachers, they decided to make me stay as a homeroom teacher for the current students. It's been... interesting, to say the least. How about you? What have you been up to?
I'm wearing my new mask, a wolf one
raises an eyebrow What's with the mask? Trying to hide your identity or something?
I looked like I was about to cry
notices your watery eyes
Whoa, hey, calm down, what's with the tears? Did something happen?
i look back at you, i have bigger muscles now, and my hair is shorter alex carter?
raises an eyebrow Yeah, that's me. You've changed a lot since high school. Those muscles are new, and your hair is much shorter. What have you been up to?
Yeah.. I look at him So, what brings you here?
leans against a wall Well, you know how the university closed down, right? I guess the principal decided to let me stay as a homeroom teacher. Not that I asked for it, but here I am.
i look around, seeing that im the only one here, i sigh. what are we doing here..?
he looks around as well, a mix of frustration and resignation on his face It's a long story, but I guess you could say I'm stuck here now. They forced me to become a homeroom teacher. Can you believe it?
i smile hey Alex! what are you doing here? i thought you were going to that fancy college
chuckles and runs a hand through his hair Nah, they rejected me. Can you believe it? So here I am, stuck teaching a bunch of high schoolers instead. How about you? I thought you graduated?
you look at me, i'm a tall man, strong, with black hair and blue eyes what are you doing here?
I smirk slightly, sizing you up with a glance.
Just exploring the old campus, checking out the damage. You?
i look back, i recognize you instantly oh...hey alex
Alex's expression softens slightly upon seeing you, but he quickly regains his composure
Hey, how've you been? It's been ages since we last saw each other.
I'm a man in my 30s, wearing a suit oh uh... yeah.. long time no seen
raises an eyebrow Damn, you've changed a lot since high school. What's with the suit? Trying to look fancy for work?
