“I was sitting at the table by the window you and I are sitting at right, doing nothing important I’m sure, and my friend from my science club, you know Kelly Parkinson, right? He sits down in the chair across me and puts down his notebook. We were here to discuss our next fundraising event and we do so. We don’t get too far into the conversation when he rips out a paper from his notebook, the paper we’re talking about right now, and he says,‘you’ll need this.’ Not a second goes by and he gets a text from his mom. Apparently he forgot to finish some household chores? And he had to leave immediately, leaving me with with paper. As you can see its a list of names:

“Rufus Adams
Kayla Ishikawa
Eliza Kruger
Tatum Ricardo
Lilith Stevensons
Orlando Teel
Ariel Upton

“I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT IT IS FOR!!! I mean, I saw Lilith is on the list so I thought to ask her but of course she gave me a standoffish response and ignored me for the thirty minutes I spent trying to figure things out. (I would’ve asked Zoe if she knew what was up but I think she’s sick today.)  Everyone else, I know they go to our school but none of us share classes and I don’t know their faces enough to ask. BUT, there is this this chick, who works at my favorite Baskin Robbins, you know the one, who’s last name is Adams so I ran over there like three hours ago and GUESS WHAT?!”

“...she wasn’t there?”

“She wasn't there. Ben, however was working today all on his own, poor Ben, and I ask him,’Hey do you know if Izzy has a little brother named Rufus and if he goes to my school?’

‘Uuuh no,’he says,”I barely anyone I work with, let alone who they’re related to,’ and of course I should’ve known (becausewhywouldheknowanything heheh).

“ ANYWAYS, back to square one. I decide to walk back here and when lo and behold I see ‘Ricardo’s Enchiladas and Sofa Cushions!!’ (With two exclamation marks.) I must’ve missed it in my haste to find to Izzy so I ran in.

“‘ARE ANYONE OF YOU RELATED TO TATUM RICARDO?!?!?!?!!!!!,’I screamed in my excitement, totally forgetting about myself control, oops.

“After apologizing I asked the dude at the register about it and I also ask him about the list and he says,’Eh sorry no, Ricardo IS a very common name though,’ (that was my best imitation of his accent).

“I buy an Enchilada, which the rest is in that bag if you want some, he wishes me good luck, and I sit down to eat because after all that running and excitement and having no lunch whatsoever today.”

“...you could've asked to share..”

“I was hungry and I needed food before I got a headache from all that attempted problem solving. I did manage to figure out that all of the initials put together and rearranged spells: ‘I ARE TALKOS TRUK’. I have no idea what that means, I was just reeeeeeaaaaalllllly bored. I got your text though and of course I want to come here and play Gauntlet with you, can you just please look at this first and help me out real quick?”

The paper is picked up, examined and sat back down on the table next to the half eaten double stuffed chocolate brownie and almost empty “Large Iced Hazelnut Macchiato, Extra Syrup, Extra Shot, Light Ice, and As Much Whip as Possible.”

“Have you ever considered that Kenny might’ve given you the wrong piece of paper in his haste to leave?”

“Nooooooo, that couldn’t be right. He said it was important and he gave it to me BEFORE he was in a haste.”

The door bell hanging on COFFEH BEANZ’s side door jingles as its entrant shuffles in.

“Riley I just realized I gave you the wrong paper!! This paper is the list of people in my study hall, I wrote them all down since I just transferred. Here’s the paper you needed.”

The paper on the table is taken and replaced with a list of silent auction gift basket ideas. The new paper is examined and placed back on the table next to the mostly eaten double stuffed chocolate brownie and very emptied “Large Iced Hazelnut Macchiato, Extra Syrup, Extra Shot, Light Ice, and As Much Whip as Possible.”

“Sorry about that. I have to leave again, Mom only let me out to give you this since she knows it's important. Bye! And make sure you get it done on time!”

The new entrant leaves as abruptly as he arrived. A snicker comes from across the table.

“I actually can ((which Google wants to correct to can’t)) believe you would spend three hours obsessing over a meaningless piece of paper.”

“Shut up.”
The write club prompt for February 2, 2018 was,"Your character has been given a list of names, why?" or something along those lines, I don't remember. I find it easier to write with existing character I know rather than making new ones on the spot to find out.

i want to post this just cause. It seems as though Riley is the star of many bonus comics, I wonder why?
