The lesson that was just starting was maths. Cuz it was raining, Alex had turned up for it, but he just sat at the back reading a magazine and ignoring the teacher.
Mika was elbowing Miki and whispering (In Japanese) "What the hell is he talking about? More to the point, what is he saying?"
Miki hid a snigger behind her palm.
"Without heroes we are all plain people and don't know how far we can go."
The teacher didn't even notice them, and carried on droning about long division. He then gave everyone a worksheet and told the class to do the problems in silence.
