books and cleverness | i like you a latte
Jina read her notes one last time in the corridor before walking into the classroom. For some reason, she was convinced that they were to take a very difficult test in this lesson, so she had spent more time than usual studying the topic in great depth. She was therefore perplexed to see a giant pool in the classroom instead of desks and chairs. No one else seemed glad or disappointed that the test was cancelled, so she must have been mistaken. "Hello," she greeted Professor Schmoe with a sad smile. The last thing she wanted after finding out that she had revised for a non-existent test is to take off her shoes in public and enter a pool ... but after noticing her head of house's tired look (did he inflate this entire thing on his own??) she felt ashamed. The professor always put in a lot of effort to prepare lessons for them - the least she could do is to participate wholeheartedly. She quickly took off her shoes and socks and left them by the wall, then stepped into the pool and tried not to think about gnarly feet.
