Emma let out a long sigh as she sat alone in the class, picking at her lunch and glancing around the class with a bored expression. She watched as everyone sat in their own groups of friends and enjoyed each others companies. A small huff escaped her as she was still a little upset about this morning and pushed her lunch away with a frown. As she thought about it she felt a slight feeling of embarrassment as she mistaken the salt for sugar. She groaned at her shame and shook her head. "Stupid salt, stupid pancakes," she grumbled as she glanced over to see Fay leaving the class with a bag, most likely for Lee. Emma drummed her fingers along her desk and frowned as a thought came to her mind. 

"Screw it," she muttered before swiftly grabbing her things and casually making her way out of the class. A few of the other students noticed her and knew what she was up to. She was skipping again. Honestly she skips maybe two or three times a month, but today she needed to get out before she went insane. Going through the same routine she slipped out of the school and quickly made her way through the square. As she casually walked down the streets she saw a few of the adults notice her and gave a disapproval glance her way, but she just smiled and moved on. Taking a few turns here and there she finally arrived at her home and used the spare key. Right as she entered the house she dropped her things on the kitchen table and marched into the kitchen with a determined glare. She wrapped an apron around her waist and pulled out the cooking book. "Right, now, where to start," she whispered and smirked as she found her first dish. "Vegetable stew! Sounds easy enough!" she declared and wrapped a white bandana around her forehead. "Lets do this!"

Dillan frowned a bit as Lee tapped his cheek, but sighed and let a small smile come to his face. "Thanks," he chuckled and looked back over his post to see Verelik. He gave a nod to acknowledge him and sat back in his seat as they opened the gates for him. "Old coot," he smirked as he made his comment of respecting Elders. After a few seconds Dillan's stomach growled and her let out a huff. "Damn I'm starved. I didn't get to have breakfast this morning," he muttered before pausing. "Well I did, but Emma made it and replaced the sugar with salt. Nearly choked to death from salty pancakes," he shook his head with a sigh. "She upset with me now because I spat it back out," he chuckled.
