12 Real Good Teacher...

Once Robin had finished washing up the soup cup, she gazed out of the window onto the city of Penfold below, everything about the city seemed so bright and beautiful the leaves on the tree were such a rich green and the air smelt fresh, even with all the cars on the streets. It was no wondering she thought it was a dream Robin told herself.

This time Robin heard the front door open.

"Robin Robin?" Ivy called as she entered the apartment.

"I'm in here..." Robin replied.

"I'm here too," Mike called from the living room.

Ivy came clattering into the kitchen still holding all of her bags, she seemed to sigh with relief when she saw Robin up and about. Mike wasn't far behind Ivy he was obviously excited to greet her.

"Robin, I was so worried about you! Mike, you stayed with Robin all afternoon you are too sweet!!" Mike chuckled, as he weaved his arm around Ivy's waist.

"Couldn't have anything happen to her, how was class?" Mike asked, his gaze was fixed on Ivy it was so intense that Robin saw Ivy blush.

"It was good, it was oh!" Ivy exclaimed her attention coming back to Robin, "Robin Mr Thomas was so worried about you today, he said he thought you seemed a bit unwell yesterday!, He asked me to let you know he didn't want his number one pupil to fall behind so if you needed a private session to catch up he'd be more then happy to help! He says he knows how seriously you take your studies and he doesn't want you to stress!"

Robin cringed she had no doubt what private sessions meant, she didn't want to see that man again! The idea of being alone with him made her stomach turn. Ivy noticed Robins discomfort and carried on

"Don't worry Robin, you are so clever and Mr. Thomas is such a great professor! I'm sure he only offered because he's such a good teacher and wants all of his students to do well and he knows how important it is for you to finish with good marks!"

"Real good teacher..." Robin murmured.

"How are you feeling do you think you'll be back in class tomorrow? I missed going in with you!"

"I...I" Robin started

'I can't spend my life hidden in this flat, people are going to think I've truly lost my mind! I guess the best thing to do is try and pretend like things are as normal as possible.... I will not be alone with that man though!!" Robin thought to herself.

"Yeah Thanks, Ivy, I just think I needed the day to rest" she answered.

"You are right though Ivy, she had gone completely dopy!" Said Mike chiming in, Robin shot him a glare but then remebering what he had said about her treating him so badly she quickly shifted her gaze awkwardly. "Ivy The Small Boom Idea is about to start common I don't wanna miss it."

"I don't either Mike!" Said Ivy giggling she looked at Robin, "do you wanna going to join us?"

Robbin should her head weakly, "No no I need to catch up with studying..." Ivy and Mike left Robin, chatting as they went lost in a world of their own.

"Right time to find out who I am!" Robin said to herself re-entering her bedroom, she picked up her school bag and emptied it onto the bed. Inside the bag was more makeup, a sealed copy of a 'Toad with a Death Wish', a journal, wrappers, rubbish, and a purse. Robin though the rubbish in the bin then turned her attention to the purse.

Inside the purse, there was many gift cards, a lot of cash, and a few credit cards Robin inspected the cards, her signature was the same on the cards as the one she already used. 'Least I won't starve', she thought. Robin pulled out a student ID, the picture on the card looked like her, but an incredibly done-up version of herself, she had big fake eyelashes and her lips where letterbox red, she was also pouting slightly in the picture. Robins's name was still the same, Miss Robin May Giggs, her birthday was almost matched hers. The date and month were the same, it was just the year was 8 years later than her actual birthdate.

So she was 19 again.... 'great' thought Robin she did not enjoy the dramas of school before so she was sure she wouldn't enjoy it again.

Robin picked up the journal and started to flick through it, the whole thing seemed like it was written in code. She studied it for a while like she was working out ancient hieroglyphics.
