Sodas, Ramen, and Cookies

"So, what are you girls doing?"

The four of them refuse to look at me as if the monitor and keyboard are a lot more interesting than a human being. Or maybe their headphones are blocking my voice. That may be the case. But surely, I don't think the YOLO likes me. They see me as a different thing anyway. What's the word again, boomer? Man, I'm not that old. Can someone who can't die be measure by age? Still, I don't think I'm any different. Just a slight. That's just sad.

But I'm planning not to let it stay.

This is me trying to get them like me. After all, it'd only bring the good for later on.

And gets nudged by Nerdy.

Fatty gives her a confused look.
