Can We Go Back

Chapter Three

Kara's P.O.V;

Our boss instructs us on what to do, today. We all get our stories, and reports.

"I want those reports on my desk by the weekend." He states sound a little angry.

I zone out.

** FLASH BACK **

"Okay, class, for your assignment, I want you to write a book report on To Kill a Mockingbird." Our reading teacher, Mrs. Roberts, says. We all groan. "But... But this is the last day before Christmas break! We're supposed to do a book report over Christmas break!?" A student exclaims.

"There's no break from learning, as I always say." Mrs. Roberts replies. I can't believe this! Life was so much better on Krypton. No book reports or bad teachers. Highschool sucks! I hate it. 

Ring. The bell goes off. We all begin to collect our things and talk about the assignment. "I want those reports on my desk the day you get back from Christmas break." Our teacher says over all the students talking. 

I throw my bag over my shoulder and walk out of the room, with my best friend, Lena, walking out of the classroom beside me. "I can't believe she's making us do homework over Christmas break." Lena states in a semi-angry tone.

"I know! She's can be so mean." I say as I approach my locker, I grab my book for my next period, and place my old one where I got my new one. "Not that it matters to me. I mean, I don't exactly celebrate Christmas... or at least I'm not allowed to join in on the celebration." Lena says rolling her eyes.

She then, opens her own locker, which is right next to mine and grabs the next book she needs, and puts her old one back into her locker.

"Oh! I meant to tell you that you can join us this Christmas. I mean if you want to." I smile at her. "Really? Yeah, that'd be great." Lena smiles at me. "Yay! I'm so excited!" I exclaim. I shut my locker, then Lena and I head to our next class.

** END OF FLASHBACK **

"Danvers!" My boss yells, snapping me out of my thoughts.

"Uhm, Y-Yes, sir?" I say nervously. "I'm not paying you to stand around and day dream!" He exclaims.

"Right, sorry. Sir." I say, not letting any air escape or enter me.

"Get to work!" He exclaims right in my face.

"Ye-Yes sir." I nod. He walks away and I exhale.

I walk out, and go to James' office. "Hey, Kara." James greets me.

"Hey James. You  know my knew boss?" I say. James nods.

"What about him?" He asks.

"He is terrifying! And that's really something, coming from me. I've battled-" I lower my voice, "I've battled killer aliens." I say.

"Do you want me to talk to him for you or something?" James asks.

"No. I don't.." I begin. I sit down at the chair across from his desk.

"I don't know. I mean, I want to do this by myself, you know? Just, me. But it's hard because I've always kind of had a partner, or someone help me." I say.

"I understand, Kara. Do you, know what your first report is going to even be about?" James asks me.

"W-Well. No. But I uh, I have a few ideas." I reply.

"Oh?" James raises an eyebrow. "Like what?" He asks.

"Well... uhm... I c-cant tell you, at this moment." I answer.

"Oh. Is it because you don't know?"

"I know. It's uhm, uh... er... the, an, erm..." I start.

"An interview with someone... Maybe about their opinion on Supergirl?" James finishes for me.

Ooh!! That's brilliant!

"Yes. That exactly. How did you guess?" I say smiling at him.

"Just a lucky guess." He says. "Who will you be interviewing?"

"Uh... Well, L-L..." I begin to say.

Shoot. I didn't think this through very well.

"Lena Luthor?" James says.

"Y-Yes Lena Luth-" I say but get cut off.

Wow. I haven't seen her in years. For good reason though, I guess. Some people just may not be as accepting as they may seem...

"You'd better make an appointment then." James says.

"Uhm, right. Yes. I'm gonna go do that now." I say.

I get up from the chair and begin to walk out. I'm at the door, I turn to look at James.

"Thanks for your help, James." I say.

"Anytime." He smiles.

I walk out of his office.

Okay.... time to make an appointment with my ex-bestfriend. This'll be enjoyable.
