#044 ~ Sarah's Chronicles: Whoops...

School is a weird place...

Whoops...

Rod Tanzol

Sarah was walking in a dark and poorly-lit hallway beneath the school. It was a shortcut between her third period Honors Pre-Calculus class and her fourth period AP Chemistry classes. Sometimes, she would see other students go in and out of the weight room that was down there. However, no one was using it this marking period. Today, Sarah only saw darkness and the occasional flickering of the dim lights. It was surprisingly safe down there; all the violence was in the bridge that connected the two main buildings of the school. On this peculiar day, she heard a strange sound. It was set of tenor grunts and soprano moans.

“Don’t stop! Don’t stop!” a voice cried, “It hurts so good!” Sarah paused. She wasn’t sure about what she had just heard. She moved closer to the sound.

A deeper voice cheered, “Yes! Yes! Oh god!”

The higher voice continued repeating itself but added, “Harder!”

Sarah was in a fit of hysterics. She skipped away to her next class. She txt’d Joe and a few other of her friends about what she heard. By the end of the day, students gossiped about an orgy in the basement.

At the end of the day, Casey met up with her older sister Sarah and asked, ”Did you hear about the orgy in the basement that started third period?”

Sarah laughed. As the sisters walked home, Sarah explained the situation to Casey, “There was no orgy. However, there were two people having sex in the school’s basement somewhere. I think it was just a guy and a girl. I thought it was funny but a little gross. Actually, it was very gross.”

“Wow, is that all? I thought there was bash of like twenty grinding bodies,” Casey shared.

Sarah sighed and shook her head no. “Teenagers are so gross sometimes,” she insisted.

The two made it home. Sarah went to her room. Casey dropped off her books, and then went to her boyfriend’s house. Sarah put on her headset. She hadn’t ended her Skype conversation from the morning. Cisco wasn’t available at the moment. Sarah took off the headset, and started her homework. It was quick and meaningless. She did her English and history homework thoughtlessly. (Last year, she was in honors classes only. This year, she elected to drop AP English and AP history.) Her math and chemistry homework took her about an hour, but they were nothing strenuous. Since she dropped half of her exhausting and time-consuming honors classes, her homework was no longer thought-provoking. Despite her newfound boredom, Sarah maintained excellent grades—and her sanity! She had lots of time on her hands.

No computer games interested her for currently, so she occupied herself with papercraft courtesy of 4chan. She was making a mudkip. She had Steam running, and noticed that Cisco was playing Portal. She IM’d him, then started talking to him via Skype.

They didn’t say much of anything. Sarah mentioned what she overheard today. Cisco laughed, and then he reprimanded Sarah, “You put yourself in danger of rape! I couldn’t let that happen to you!”

“Shut up,” Sara suggested, “because you sound like my father. Why do the men in my life think I’m going to be raped and impregnated if I step outside?”

“Well,” Cisco explained, “didn’t some jack-off try asking you on a date by showing up to your front door? You obviously don’t even need to leave your house for your father’s fears to be realized.”

“Did you know,” she revealed, “that my father doesn’t know about you?”

Cisco wasn’t surprised at all. “I take it that he doesn’t check your chatlogs or anything.”

“That’s funny. I wish that he’d even come in my room. He’s been promising to re-arrange my furniture for months!” Sarah laughed.

“Have some of your guy friends to do it for you,” Cisco suggested.

“You’re joking, right? My dad would kill them if they came in the house! They have penises!” she laughed.

Cisco tried ending the conversation with a few wise words, “The moral of the story is this: Jesus loves you hard!”

Sarah laughed, “My dad would make me give up Christianity if he heard that! Bye, Cisco! I love you!”

“I love you, too!” Cisco declared!

Sarah took off her headset and went to dinner.
