Whoa. This was incredible. It was like a scene from a dream, one of the pleasant ones. Gwen wasted no time in finding a pot of coffee and pouring herself some. She hadn't had coffee since she got to this school weeks ago. Unlike the other kids, she could care less that the professor wasn't in the room.

She felt so light. Like she couldn't do anything wrong. The way summer days felt. Camping and swimming and everything happy filled the space that seemed to go on for miles. This was amazing. She took a deep breath, inhaling the delicious smell of coffee. It was black, but there was some sugar nearby that she spooned into the cup.

Of course, her favorite was Starbucks skinny vanilla latte with soy, but in a pinch, this would do. Who was she kidding? This was fantastic! Gwen sipped at the drink of heaven, closing her eyes to enjoy it more fully. What was this place?
