The attitude he got from people t today was a bit different from before; although they were still talking, they did it in hushed tones so he won't hear them."Hello Cedric" two girls greeted as they passed but he ignored them and moved on.He wasn't aiming for popularity, so even though he had decided to stand up for himself, he didn't want anyone to make an intrusion in his space; they might as well start pretending to be nice,

A light suddenly came on flooding the room with it's florescent current while the shadow of two figures could be made out entering the room. Casting a quick glance around the corridor and seeing no one was in sight,the door was shut quietly and locked."Are you sure no one saw you leave the pantry?""Yes Lisa.
