It's been a few weeks that you've been sitting alone at breaks. Why? Well, Simon found himself a new friend group - a rowdier crowd, completely unlike you. Being the calm person you are, you didn't protest or lash out. You simply let him.

Today is a little unusual. You're still sitting alone at lunch, a small snack in your hand as you read, but there's a feeling nagging at you to turn around. Propping your book on your lap, you turn to look and catch Simon already staring at you.
