“Why would she say all that? I mean, isn’t she a new teacher? Can she even afford the transfer fees and all that?” Ellie said
“She didn’t actually….” Jordan tried to get out, but Sara talked over him.
“Body Hottie and her are apparently friends,” Sara said with a scoff of disdain as she glared down at Jordan. Who knew better than to say anything at this moment.
“Wait, I thought you told me in Spanish that Ms. Hottie was his friend,” Stephanie said, confused to Ellie.
“No, Ms. Hottie is his ex-girlfriend. This is apparently a friend?” Sara said, using air quotes.
“She is just a friend, and that’s not exactly what happened,” Jordan shouted from Sara’s hand, but he found his voice overpowered and lost as the teens continued to talk about the events as if he weren’t there. Jordan stomped his foot on Sara’s hand, hoping to get her attention, but the conversation continued and moved on without anyone acknowledging him.
“Ladies, warm-ups should be happening,” the loud voice of Jordan’s friend Daniela Sanchez boomed across the gym as the girls groaned a bit as they lined up. Jordan watched a couple of the girls begin to stretch when he felt himself descend downward in a startling move. Jordan looked up at Sara briefly before watching the floor come closer and closer.
“We start and end class with some stretches as warm-ups and cool-downs,” Sara said, her hand finally stopped resting against the ground. Jordan looked up with a bit of trepidation but stepped off her hand. As he touched the gym floor, he realized how rare it was for him to actually be on the floor.
“They really are like giants,” Jordan thought to himself as he stared up at Sara, who was already standing fully upright, and the other girls. Each of them bending and moving on a scale which, to his mind, shouldn’t be possible. It would be like seeing the statue of liberty do jumping jacks.
Jordan looked from left to right, and all he could see in either direction was a seemingly endless expanse of the gymnasium. He knew there should be walls, but his eyes just couldn’t see that far as to him. The distance was miles, and his ocular power had diminished to match his size.
“He looks so little when you have him on the floor,” Ellie commented as she looked down at Jordan on the floor between Sara’s feet. “Are we doing anything after school before work?”
“Mom’s gonna throw a fit if Body Hottie and I don’t get our chores done.” So probably chores and a little homework. You can come to hang if you want, or are you heading to the rally?” Sara said.
“I can come to supervise Body Hottie’s work, I suppose,” Ellie said with a giggle.
