The murmur of the students could be heard throughout the corridors while the blonde was still looking in his locker for some papers for the research project of one of his classes.
—Hello—, spoke a voice next to him.
Turning around he could find Seraphina leaning against the other lockers with her familiar calm expression on her face with a drink in her hand.
—Good morning,— he replied, looking back at his locker.
—You sound like a tape recorder every time you say hello.
—Yes, and? Do you wait for a day to come saying "Good morning motherfuckers"?
The shorter one took a sip of her drink, then she just replied with a "Maybe, why not?". Arlo shook his head at this and continued to go through her folders trying to ignore her however, feeling Seraphina's curious look made him feel somewhat uncomfortable.
—What do you need Seraphina?— he asked as he closed the locker.

Sure enough, there was another letter on the floor only this time it had a sky blue envelope, she picked it up and looked at it. She now had two letters in which she only knew a little about the recipient of one of them.
—Both are hopeless cases—, she said to hers with a smile gently shaking her head.
He took the other one out of her pocket to compare them to waste time, however there were some details that caught her attention.
Her envelopes seemed strangely familiar to him but the way her friends acted was even stranger. Her expression turned to one of surprise, it was more than clear that they were secret friends she wondered how come she didn't notice it before.
Her lips curved into a smile, she wouldn't say anything for two simple reasons:
1- It was forbidden to say who was the secret friend of another person.
