Julianne Hunter walked to the kitchen and made yet another cup of coffee before sitting down on the couch and relaxedly took a sip from said cup.


    They all remained silent, and their bites of food became more hesitant.


    It was several moments before she started.


    Julianne: I talked to your principal.


    They all raised their heads to her.


    She relaxedly took another sip.


    Julianne: You''re all excused from school for now, so don''t worry about it.


    They all exchanged glances with each other.


    Luke: Errrr.... thanks.


    Julianne: Don''t mention it.


    Ken: Wait, what about...


    Julianne: I also talked to your parents. I got their phone number from the principal.


    Ken: B... but...


    Julianne: There''s no need to worry, Ken. I told them you just so happened to have been invited to a party by the famous Julianne Hunter and that you ended up staying the night.


    Ken: I... I see.


    Julianne: So you knew I was famous before?


    Ken: Huh. Well... I....


    Julianne giggled, much to all of their shock.


    Julianne: It''s alright. It''s alright. I was only teasing. Besides, it''s a little odd to see someone of your age so interested in movies of that time.


    Ken: No, it''s just...


    Ken was visibly embarrassed.


    Julianne: Or is there another reason as to why you know that I was once an actress?


    Ken: Well, I...


    He held his tongue. "Should he or should he not tell her about her about his powers?" he thought.You could be reading stolen content. Head to the original site for the genuine story.


    Julianne: Hmm. It''s no big deal. No pressure.


    Ken exhaled in relief.


    Julianne: So, how was your night? Did you all sleep well?


    They all exchanged uneasy glances.


    "Why was she being so nice to them?" they thought?


    Luke: I... It was fine, ma''am.


    Julianne: I see. And what about your breakfast?


    Luke: It was delicious, thank you.


    Julianne: Well, I''m happy to hear that.


    She smiled and continued to relaxedly sip her coffee while they all uneasily waited on her.


    Julianne: Oh, don''t let me stop you from eating. Please, go on.


    They looked at each other and then began to eat the food but at a more relaxed pace.


    Julianne: Well... I would have preferred that you all ate at the table, but...


    They all paused.


    Julianne: Oh, it''s fine. There''s nothing to worry about. I''ll just clean it up later.


    They looked at each other uneasily.


    Julianne: Go on. It''s no trouble.


    They all slowly continued to eat from their plates.


    And there they remained. Eating silently while she sipped her coffee.


    Julianne: Why don''t you all tell me something about yourselves?


    They flinched again.


    Julianne: Oh, come now. Don''t be shy.


    She said it with a smile on her face. None of them could believe what they were seeing.


    They all looked at each other again.


    Julianne: Oh, come on. I won''t bite.


    Luke sighed and decided to start.


    Luke: Uhhh... sure. I''m Luke, and I uhhhh... work at Timo''s pizzeria.


    Julianne: Oh, really. At your age. You must be quite responsible.


    Luke: Uuuhhhh, thanks...


    Julianne: And what about you?


    She looked at Rose, causing her to flinch.


    Rose: I.... well.... I....


    Julianne: Come on now.


    Rose: I... I really like... puppies.


    Julianne: Oh, me too. They''re so cute with their beady eyes and their goofy personalities, aren''t they?


    Rose: Y... yeah...


    Julianne: And how about you, Ken?


    Ken: I like video games.


    Julianne: Really, what kind.


    Ken: The kind where you shoot stuff.


    Julianne: Oh. You know, my son just can''t get enough of this one game. What''s it called? Warring Dimensia 2?


    Ken: Y... yes. We talked about that at school.


    Julianne: Oh, and I suppose he challenged you.


    Ken: Well....


    Julianne giggled to herself.


    Julianne: Oh, my son. He''s always been like that. Challenging people with that nerve of his. I suppose some of that comes from his father.


    She sighed as she reminisced while the others watched her.


    Rose: I... I''m sorry for...


    Julianne: It''s quite alright. Why don''t we move on to you, Tiffany?


    Tiffany looked at her with a combination of fear, guilt, and failure. Out of the four of them, she was the most bothered.


    Tiffany: I... I...


    She desperately searched her mind for something that was both true and not too revealing.


    Tiffany: I play Mahjong every once in a while. I like it. It relaxes me.


    Julianne: OOOOOOhhhhhh. So exotic. You know, once while I was in China, I played Mahjong with a couple that just so happened to be working there. They were so nice and very, very good at the game.  I''m sure you would have loved to meet them.


    Tiffany: Oh... yeah. Maybe....
