Kaere walked up to Nozomu, who was slumped over his lectern. "Now what's wrong?" she asked him.

Nozomu held up his cell-phone as he answered her. "The 600 abusive text messages I've read this morning have left me in DESPAIR!!"

Kaere glanced at Meru, who was tapping out insults on her cell-phone so quickly that her fingers were a blur.

"I don't know which is more pathetic," a face-palming Kaere said, "that she doesn't have anything better to do than to send hundreds of abusive text messages, or that you don't have anything better to do than to read them."
