Seraphina

The basketball practice had ended a few moments ago and now we were back in the class, listening to teacher mutter a few things which definitely went flying above my head.

"I believe, I asked you a question, Miss Modica. When did the independence took place? And why?"

My head ever so slightly tilted and my eyes zeroed on her lips. What the fuck was she even going on about?

When I didn't answer, she simply said. "Detention, after class, tomorrow." The class snickered and so did the ultimate devil.

I loosely shrugged, before sitting down on my seat.

"You knew but didn't answer." Lucy stated. I turned in my chair, to give her my attention. "I didn't because I suck at studies."

Her tongue softly clicked, careful enough not to draw in any unwanted attention, specially the teacher's. "Liar."

I half shrug and turn back towards the blackboard. Whatever, she wrote, was something I had studied before but honestly it didn't spark my interest a single bit.

Either I was dumb or too dumb.
