Rikki's blue eyes were glued to her computer screen. Her fingers were jerking across the keyboard. She obviously didn't want to type. Her mouth was shut tight. Unfortunately, she had flunked her history exam and had extra homework. She supposed everyone knew. Hearing her name called, Rikki whipped around only to see a blond girl and a few other people beside her. As the girl threw insults at her, Rikki just glared with fiery eyes and eventually turned around again.
A waitress soon came with a banana smoothie for Rikki. The waitress sat it down on some bare table space beside her. Rikki didn't pay a bit of attention to the woman. Rikki sighed as the waitress strolled away. She forced a few more words onto the screen and curled her fingers into a fist. The smoothie started bubbling. Rikki peered over at the smoothie, ready to take a sip. She touched it and burned her finger. "Ouch!" she exclaimed to herself, finally taking her focus off of the computer. She sighed again, knowing she had boiled the beverage. "Just have to keep under control," she whispered, ignoring her melted smoothie again.
Rikki soon looked over at the smoothie once more. She took a quick drink and pulled back from it instantly. "Gack, that's horrible!" she said almost too loud. She didn't care about the many people staring at her and the giggling girls behind her. Rikki rolled her eyes at her dumbness. A shot of lightning went off outside. "Control Rikki, control," she reminded herself. The blond pushed stray strands of hair out of her face and let out a deep breath. "Stupid homework..."
