Calm before the storm
Lucy
Why are you putting on an extra jacket, it shouldn't be cold in the auditorium
August
Oh, just to be sure, because last time we had the meeting in the auditorium it was so cold most of us had to leave for our jackets.
Lucy
Huh, last time? I don't think we have ever had this kind of meeting before.
August looks at Lucy with a confused and questioning face
August
What do you mean we have never had this kind of meeting, although I can't remember which year, I vividly remember where we were seated and even who came to speak on stage.
Lucy
You must have mistaken it with a similar event you had somewhere else.
The Professor orders the class to leave in an orderly fashion for the auditorium, and on the way Lucy and August continue to argue on who is right.
August
I can't be mistaken I remember it as if it was yesterday, I even remember the usher that showed us to our seat you must be pulling my leg if you disagree.
Lucy
Okay, suppose you were right, Last year or the year before we were in the first or the second class, now we are in the third class,
and we are still required to attend this meeting, won't that mean that the whole school is going to the auditorium?
Lucy
But the auditorium isn't large enough to accommodate the whole student body
With this rhetoric Lucy smiled at August with pride and a bit of mockery knowing she had won the argument, and August in front of this logic began to doubt his memory.
August
Maybe you are right I must have mistaken it for a similar event. :)
The two, along with the rest of their class finally arrive at the auditorium and upon entrance, August saw something that reignited his trust in his memory.
August
Look! That's the same seating arrangement we had last time, surely you must remember.
Lucy
Shakes head, Enough there is someone up stage, don't be a sore loser.
Just then, a classmate comes and takes his seat next to them, and August to the opportunity to ask him for clarification.
August
Lucy, listen while I ask him which one of us is right
Lucy
Frowns, Okay but be quick
August proceeds to ask the classmate
August
Hey Alex, have we ever had this meeting before?
