One times two would equal two would it not? Well, what about two plus zero doesn't' that equal two as well? Yes, I believe it does. This is what I'm talking about, math is a simple thing, but yet it is utterly boring and uncomprehending all the same time. Who really remembers, that one times one equals one when they get older? If you ask your parents, don't they always think addition?  I believe so. As for zero plus two, that is what it is two people and no people. Two people walked away. They walked to the edge of the earth, to the cliff of the century to the bottom of the ocean, or so their minds did. These two people, do no comprehend life, they do no comprehend math or any subject for that matter, but they are extremely important in life. Their life, is what makes our lives special. They were the one ones far away from the shame and pain that had become of this earth. Two people, a male and a female, had started life once again. Yet, did they?1

Sandra was walking down the streets, her jeans were tight around her body. The heat was overwhelming, it was as if the sun had finally decided to land on the earth after billions of years. As she walked across the street, she could feel the stares from the men and women, it made her feel extremely uncomfortable. Her tiny feet were soaked with sweat, and her hair was matted in many knots. The school was a few blocks away, and she couldn't wait to get there. Everyone would treat her like the gross thing she was right now, instead of the only child on the streets.2

As she neared the school, her best friend Cassandra ran to her. Cassandra was one of the prettiest girls in the school, her hair was bright red, naturally too, it went down to her lower back, but it wasn't as matted as Sandra's blond locks were now. "So, darling. Why is it that every time I see you in the morning, your hair is a bloody mess? Can't you comb it once in a while?" Sandra laughed and shook her head.3

"No, no. The question is how do your make your hair look utterly breathtaking in the early morning? Do you take gallons of hairspray and then walk out the door?"4

"You would want to know wouldn't you?" Cassandra grinned. "Well, we better go inside. I mean, it's hot out, and school isn't going to be later." They started walking towards the double doors, when the bell rang. "See what I told you?" They ran to Cassandra's locker.5

"What happened to you yesterday anyway?" Sandra asked.6

"Well, that is something yo would have found out if you called me, correct?" Cassandra slammed her locker shut, and they started walking down the hall towards Sandra's locker.7

"Well obviously, but don't you think you could have called at least?" Cassandra stared at her and frowned.8

"But, it wasn't that important was it? I thought it was just, this meeting when we're talking about what we are going to do next week. I figure we could do that this morning instead of last night. I mean, I don't usually have to call when we just do that meeting thing."9

"Hm...well, it probably wasn't anything important I guess." Sandra tilted her head in confusion, "I must have had a dream about it or something." Sandra could have sworn it was extremely important, but Cassandra always remembered the important things. Even if they were only important to Sandra.10

"So, are you going to walk that slow or are you going to move a little faster?" Said their guy friend Steve. He had a thing of Cassandra, but Cassandra thought he liked Sandra instead.11

Cassandra tossed her head. "Well, if it isn't fast pants Steve." Steve laughed. "What do you expect us to do? Just walk as fast as your long legs carry you?"12

"At least walk as fast as your legs can carry you Cass, I mean...it's not that hard." Cassandra shrugged. Sandra looked from Cassandra to Steve and grinned, they always acted flirty around each other. She couldn't believe that Cassandra hadn't realized he liked her.13

"So," Cassandra said leaning on her locker door. "What exactly are we going to do this weekend? Have you made any plans, or is the universe going to just choose it for us?"14

"Hm...if only the universe could do that." Sandra sighed. "Do you want to go to the movies again?" Sandra grabbed some books from her locker into Cassandra's free hands.15

"Well, you know you could come over and play this game I just got. It's multiplayer, and.....well I have no friends." Cassandra and Sandra raised their eyebrows. Steve was a very popular boy, and everyone would die just to be invited to his house and play the most stupid game in the world.16

"You have no friends, so that means I have a negative amount of friends." Cassandra nodded. "Sandra you're negative one."17

Sandra laughed. "Well, at least I'm not negative two." She looked at Steve. Steve put his hands in his pockets and shurgged. His long brown hair was covering his right eye, so it was time for him to lean on the lockers. Just as his shoulders touched the two of the lockers door, and he was comfortably leaning, the bell rang. 18

"Time for classes to begin." Sandra announced. She walked to the left, while the other two walked to the right. Sandra had no classes with Steve, and Cassandra had just about every class with Steve. Besides, the few she had with Sandra.19
