"Who was that?" Alex asked, nervous. "An old friend." I said. "He looks familiar." Alex said. "He dropped out of your class first quarter." I told him. "Oh!" He said, looking worried. "ALEX LEARMAN!" We heard a woman shout. It was Mrs. Murphy, one of the other phsycology teachers. I was enrolled in her class the next year. I pretended like I wasn't with Alex, and just walked up to the counter to order. "Hello Margaret. How are you these days?" He asked. "Summer just started, Alex. I'm doing great! How about you?" She asked. "Uh, I'm good." He said, sounding nervous. "Is everything all right Alex?" she asked. "Uh. . ." He said looking at me. "Yeah, I was just in a car accident yesterday, I'm still pretty out of it." "Oh. I am sorry to hear that." She said. I looked over and saw Goose walking this way. "Mr. Goose." She said looking at him. "Hi, Mrs. Murphy." Goose said. I started laughing. "Do I know you too?" Mrs. Murphy asked. I looked at her. "I don't think so." I said. "I thought I might have seen you at the school I teach at." She said. "Probably." I said smiling. "She goes to the same school." Goose said. "I'm Mrs. Murphy and this is Professor Learman." She said. I smiled trying not to laugh. I shook Alex's hand and then Mrs. Murphys. "Well, I gotta go." Goose said. "See you all around." He said. "Well, I've got to finish my shopping and head to church." She said smiling. "See you all in the next school year." She walked away. "You have to talk to this Goose guy." Alex said quietly. I laughed, "I will." "Maybe we shouldn't have gone out in public." He said. "Yeah." I said starting to laugh. "What kind of meat did you want?" He asked. "Smoked Turkey." I said. "I'll get it. Go wait in the car." He said. I laughed and walked away. I saw Goose in the parking lot. "Goose! Wait!" I shouted. "What is going on?" He asked, laughing. "Long story. You can't tell anyone you saw Alex-professor Learman and I together. Okay?" I told him. "Oh! I was right!" He shouted. "Goose, please." I said. "Not problem. You're cool, secret is safe with me." He said. "Thanks." I told him. "Anytime. See you around." He said, and hugged me, before he walked off. I got into my car and started laughing my head off.
