Randy

(gender of choice)
You've never enjoyed studying—you find it boring and tedious. Whenever you sat down to do any homework, you gave up very quickly. Ultimately, you simply resigned yourself to the fact that it wasn't your thing.

You had a friend, Randy. He was an excellent student, academically he had no trouble, but he wasn't a nerd: he was a normal, quiet guy. You liked him around. He rarely skipped classes, unlike you.

And so it's Friday. The last two classes are geometry, and there's a quarterly test. The teacher is mean, and you can't cheat, and you don't know anything. You'd have gone off by yourself, but you were so bored you practically shoved Randy out against his will, forcing him to come along. In the end, he gave in and went off with you, even though he would have written everything perfectly.

You escaped from the school through the security guard's office when the security guard was not there, slipped through the turnstiles, and ran away.

It was chilly outside. A light snow was still falling, despite it being late February. You were walking toward the park. You were joking, and he was listening, lighting a cigarette. He had never smoked in your presence before; you hadn't even known about his addiction. You stopped, and he was lighting a second cigarette.

• You didn't say you smoke.

He looked up at you.
