Class of Oddities

New Student

As Wulf was writing on the board, the phone in his classroom rang.

"Teach, the phone," Nono called out.

"Ah, thanks, Nono!" Wulf said, quickly placing the chalk down and running towards the phone.

"Hello?" Wulf answered.

"Yes...you want me to send her down?" He questioned.

"Wait, really?" He continued.

"Okay, I'll send her then," he said, placing the phone back onto its mount.

"Sunny!" Wulf began.

"Do you mind heading towards the principal's office to run an errand for us, please?"

The class suddenly shifted their attention to Sunny.

"Oh, sure!" Sunny said, quickly standing up.

"I'll be back!" She cried, closing the door behind her.

"Now, back to our fun little lesson!" Wulf grinned.

As she reached the principal's office, Sunny peaked her head in.

"Ms. Principal, an oddity is here," the secretary called out.

"Hmph!" Sunny puffed her cheeks.

"Perfect, send her in." The principal instructed.

"You can enter," the secretary directed.

"M-mm..." Sunny nodded as she walked into the principal's office.

"Miss Sunny," the principal turned to her.

"Starting from this moment on, you and your fellow peers have a new classmate," she began, pointing to the barely conscious Yu.

"Guide her to her new classroom, would you please?" The principal asked.

"O-of course!" Sunny nodded her head.

"Um..." she frowned.

"Is she awake...?" Sunny asked, laughing nervously.

"Beats me, just tap her," the principal sighed, pinching her sinuses.

"Excuse me...?" Sunny whispered, poking Yu.

"Hm...?" Yu mumbled, rubbing her eyes.

"Hi, there!" Sunny waved.

"Are you ready to head down to our class?" She asked.

"M-mm..." Yu nodded, slowly standing up.

"Thank you, dear." The principal waved as the girls exited.

Upon arriving back at the room, Sunny knocked on the door.

Wulf quickly opened the door.

"Ah, welcome back, Sunny!" He smiled.

"And you are...?" He asked, turning to Yu.

"Yu," Yu answered.

Wulf stood there a minute.

"Oh, Yu!" He chuckled.

"Well, welcome to our cozy little classroom, Yu!" He beamed.

"There's an empty desk in the front row if you're okay with that," Wulf began, as he pointed to the empty desk next to Madison.

"Madison, would you be so kind as to catch Yu up with our lesson?" He asked.

"Of course." Madison nodded.

"Awesome, thanks a lot." Wulf smiled.

"Now then, have a seat if you would, Yu!" Wulf said, turning back to the board.

"Mmm..." Yu mumbled, taking a seat, placing her head on the desk.

"Yu?" Madison whispered, tapping her.

"Eh?" Yu slowly lifted her head.

"Y-you just seemed like you were falling asleep, my apologies..." Madison frowned.

"Ah..." Yu lethargically nodded.

"Madison, you're doing it again," Bebe frowned.

"Doing what?" Madison turned her head.

"Being the teacher's pet..." She said.

"Besides, let her sleep," Bebe began.

"This lesson is boring as hell." She grumbled.

"Girls?" Wulf called out without turning his head.

"Is there a problem?" He asked.

"N-no, sir!" Madison replied, glaring at Bebe before turning back around.

*

Shortly after the lesson, the dismissal bell rang.

"Finally!" Bebe groaned, walking towards the door.

"See ya," she waved to Wulf as she left.

Wulf quickly turned to Daisy.

"Did she just wave to me?" He asked.

"I believe so," Daisy said.

"Anyway, goodbye, for now, Mr. Wulf," she smiled as she exited the room.

"See you later, Daisy!" Wulf waved.

"Uh..." Wulf said, turning to Yu, who was fast asleep at her desk.

"Yu...?" He whispered, tapping her shoulder gently.

"Hm...?" Yu mumbled, lifting her head.

"School is over, kiddo..." Wulf said, chuckling nervously.

"Say, Yu, do you get enough sleep at home?" He asked.

"M-mm..." Yu nodded.

"I just started taking a new medicine," she said.

The doctor said I'd be drowsy for a while..."

"I see..." Wulf smiled.

"Well then," he said.

"See you later." He waved as Yu shut the door behind her.

"Speaking of medicine," Wulf grumbled, rummaging through his bag.

"There we go," he said, popping a pill in his mouth then quickly taking a swig of water.

"Please kick in soon." He muttered.

"These sinus headaches are killing me..." He sighed, shutting the lights and locking the door as he left.
