James' class was about halfway over, and the teacher would soon allow the students to get up and stretch out a bit, get some water, use the restroom, etc before resuming class. James made plans to pull his phone out and send a quick text to Sophia and Riley, and see how they were doing. And then he remembered that Zoey and Olivia would be in between classes soon themselves, or maybe he just missed it, but their phones should at least be on vibrate if not muted. He then resigned himself to check on everyone as Kylie was the last of his siblings to check in with. And soon enough the teacher said, at 9:08, [Color=FF00FF] "Okay, let's take a short break. I would like you all back in your seats by twenty after. That's twenty after nine for those who claim to need me to be more specific." [/color] [color=FF3030] [i]Just like clockwork.[/i][/color]

James stood up from his seat and made his way to the door, and slipped into the hallway with the others in the mass of students. He pulled out his phone and flipped over to his text thread and quickly typed up a text to send over to Sophia, [color=FF3030] 'Hey Sophia, how's it going over there? How Kylie's training going? Is she someone we can actually work with? When you get a moment, shoot me a text.' [/color] He looked it over a moment before hitting send. He then went to his text thread with Riley, [color=FF3030] 'Hey man, I figure your busy with the morning rush at the moment so let me know as soon as you can how things are going. How's Ron doing? I know I can just ask shortly when I get there... nvm. How's Kylie doing on her first day so far? Sorry again for not being up to help with breakfast.' [/color] James scanned it over real quick before hitting send.

James began walking to the water fountain to grab a quick drink, and went to Kylie's near empty text thread. They rarely texted each other. [color=FF3030] 'Hey Kye, how's it going? I know you aren't quite happy working today, but it'll be good for you. I'm sure your not enjoying having to follow Sophi around for training, so I'll take over when I get there. I'm sure you'll have some more leeway with me than her. Take care.' [/color] He sent it without a second thought, having proofread it already. That just left Zoey and Olivia, who should be in between classes right about now. He switched it over to Zoey's thread and hesitated for a moment before typing up, [color=FF3030] 'I hope you're between classes at the moment, and if not I'm sorry, I just wanted to say have a good day at school and I'll see you when you get to the diner.' [/color] James paused another moment, knowing that she could get in trouble if she in fact forgot to at least switch the phone over to vibrate, but ended up hitting send anyway.

He set his phone aside for a moment as he leaned over to grab a drink of water from the fountain, and took a couple of gulps before picking up his phone and heading to the restroom. Fast forward a few minutes... As James finished up drying his hands he pulled out his phone again and pulled up Olivia's text thread. [color=FF3030] 'I hope you're between classes at the moment, and if not I'm sorry, I just wanted to say have a good day at school and I'll see you when you get to the diner.' [/color] the exact same thing he sent to Zoey, but there wasn't a whole lot else he could write if he wasn't going to expect a response. And with both of them in school, he didn't expect a response from Zoey or Olivia. And with that James put his phone back in his pocket and promptly returned to the classroom. The teacher smiled softly as students began to trickle back in and said [color=FF00FF] "Alright let's resume." [/color]
