The Perk - Wednesday Afternoon
It was Wednesday and of course that meant that Jo was having her usual hot cocoa at her favourite table by the window after classes had finished. She wasn’t going home since she didn’t celebrate Thanksgiving, being British and all but the holiday season had got her to start thinking that she should start looking into returning home for Christmas.
It was going to be a different sort of Christmas than last year because last year her mother had been telling everyone who would listen how she was at Malory Towers - the exclusive boarding school for girls and now here she was at a co ed American high school in the future, not that her parents knew everything about Fandom and she certainly wasn’t going to be correcting that any time soon.
It was strange to think how much everything had changed in a year and hopefully she had also changed for the better. She wondered how her mother was explaining why she was at a new school in another country - her father had made good on his word to not make light of her expulsion with his friends but she didn’t know how her mum was handling it since out of her parents it was her mother who cared more about appearances and reputation.
She took a sip of cocoa and stared out the window as she considered making arrangements for returning home.
