All language subtitles for DD1 2 sona selina Nerdy Girls Book and Fuck Club

I feel like we only kind of hang out
with each other now.

I know, I feel like we need more
friends.

And super number two?

Um, yeah.

I don't know, I haven't really started.

I'm not gonna lie.

How about you give me the answers later?

I have one, but I haven't gotten
anything.

I don't know.

It'd be fun to start a fundraiser, to be
honest.

Like, just to meet more people, you
know?

Yeah, like the book club idea we were
talking about.

A book club idea would be awesome.

Something like... I don't know.

Like, romance novels, sci -fi, you know.

Just to talk to people. That would be
fun, honestly.

Honestly, to be boys.

I mean, also friends, right? Because
it's just us.

I know, I know.

I love hanging out with you, but... I
love hanging out with you, too, but...

would be fun to get invited to parties,
finally.

Oh my goodness, I know. We haven't been
to a party. I know.

I haven't even tried.

I think the book club's a great idea.

We just definitely need a sponsor, you
know, like a teacher or something.

A sponsor?

Yeah, you know. We don't have money. The
chess club, though.

I know. That's why we need a sponsor, so
that they can help us set up the

fundraiser. That's what happened with
the chess club they just started.

That's true.

Yeah. But the chess club is lame.

The chess club is lame.

I don't have no friends who would be in
the chess club.

So nice. Honestly.

Yeah.

And have more friends to, like, help us
with homework.

I know, because I'm not understanding
this at all. Me neither.

I'm literally failing this class right
now.

Did I tell you that? No.

I, uh... I could say I'm failing, too.
But I just copied off of you, so I think

we're both failing.

But we're trying.

So I'm just, like, following you.

I should just skip this question. It's
gonna be... Yeah, do you wanna...

Because that's hard. Do we need to start
on the essay portion?

No. No. No, I think we should finish
the, like, the questions first. Okay.

then we'll go on the essay portion.

Okay. And then we'll look over each
other's answers. You're right. I think

questions will help us write it,
actually.

Yeah. I know.

It would be fun to find some kind of,
like, sponsor or something. This is

I'm not having fun. Me either. I know.
I'm stuck. Do you want to just take a

break? Yeah, we could take a break.

Just follow, um... I mean, have you been
reading any good books lately?

Um, I have. I mean, you already know, I
am a lovebird. I don't know.

I've only been, like, romantic novels,
boyfriend -girlfriend novels, marriage

novels, children, having children.

But, you know, never had a boyfriend,
so...

I know, me neither. It's just nice you
fantasize about it. It is.

Yeah. Do you have a crush on anyone?

Um, I mean, I don't know.

I like our teacher, but I mean, besides
that, you were going to say that?

He's so handsome.

He's just so nice to us. I know. It's
like he really cares about his students.

He really wants to support us and take
care of us.

Literally, all the other guys are just
like, I know they're cute, too, but,

like, they're not, like, mature, and
they don't care. Like, they just want to

have fun. I mean, having fun is cool,
too. I'm not going to lie.

Yeah, I know. Our teacher's just so,
like, so dreamy.

Oh,

you had a dream? Don't tell me it was a
wet dream.

Then I won't tell you about the dream.
Well, actually, I'm actually curious,

because I, like, I've never had a wet
dream. How does that feel?

I don't know how to explain it to you.
It's kind of like when you're reading a

book. Okay. A really good book.

You're fantasizing? You're kind of
fantasizing about it. Your body kind of

reacts. Whoa, your body?

Your body, yeah.

That's so cute. I love that. Oh my
goodness.

How do I get a wet drink? Can I search
that up?

Like take medicine or something for it?

Take medicine.

I don't know. That would be funny,
actually.

Yeah. Oh, now I'm, like, done. You could
take medicine and just, like, have

certain dreams.

Maybe you could send me the dream.

Right. I'll just download it for later.
Yeah, exactly.

Oh, I'm so jealous.

A wet dream about her teacher?

Oh my god.

You've really never had a wet dream
before? I don't think so. I mean, I get

little, like, you know, warm when I read
my books, but... Okay, yeah, it's not

the same thing. I mean, the essence must
be the same, right? Yeah. So, I'm

thinking cookies, cakes, maybe we could
make, like...

Buy one, get one hug coupons, maybe?

Hug coupons would be fun. We should. It
would be a good idea to, like, raffle

stuff off.

Ooh, raffle would be fun. Yeah, let's
raffle.

I know you have some, like, cute shoes,
and so do I. They just don't fit me

anymore. So we could do that, too.

And maybe we could get some of the girls
in our class interested in joining.

Yeah, like, we're wearing these, like,
ugly uniforms.

Well, yeah, everyone's wearing these. So
I'm sure they would like some cute

heels or something. I mean, I would be
grateful.

Ruffles are cool.

Ruffles, yeah, we do ruffles.

Girls. Oh, hey, Teach.

Oh. What are you doing? Just staying
after?

Yeah. Um, yeah.

Studying or what?

Well, a little bit.

A little bit. I mean, we should be,
right, Selena?

We should be. What are you guys up to?

Um, well, we actually had something we
kind of wanted to say and talk about.

Oh, okay. Yeah, Selena has something to
tell you.

Well, we kind of wanted to start like a
club, like a book club.

Okay. Yeah.

All right. But we obviously, like, you
need a sponsor, like a teacher to

you and, like, say it's okay, you know?
Yeah. Yeah.

Well, tell me more.

Well, we're thinking about starting off
with, like, some romance novels to get

some girls in our class interested.

Yeah. Maybe, you know.

Get some boys in there, too.

Definitely some boys.

Wow.

Okay.

Yeah, we need a sponsor.

Okay. Well, I can probably help you guys
out, but what are you thinking? What

else do you have in mind? Well,
obviously we need a fundraiser, like

start the club, so we were thinking
about like a raffle or like a bake sale

something like that. Definitely a bake
sale because my mom makes cookies, so

that would be fun.

Okay. All right.

Well, that's cool.

We can definitely do that.

uh anything else that you have in mind
do you think you give people there what

kind of what kind of books do you think
you're gonna read like romance and sci

-fi definitely want to do some novel
ones for sure like just things that have

like a bunch of books to it that way
like people are like oh what's the next

book that's coming on yeah no classics
that we read in class yeah no no no

that's just like school no one wants to
go to school yeah that's true but i mean

i think To be fair, Shakespeare and the
old classics are going to be good for

you guys.

But we read those in class all day
already. I understand that, but that's

really the point. The point is that
people are going to learn, and that's

they're going to understand.

Okay, well, maybe a classic in between
every, like, fun book.

Like sci -fi? Like, we could incorporate
sci -fi, because science is fun, but,

like... Yeah.

Nobody wants to learn about aliens and
stuff. Yeah, like, aliens and stuff.

would be cool. And, like, rocks and
stuff.

Yeah. Not really, like... Geology,
that's a good topic. Yeah, that would be

Geology. Geology.

Yeah.

Uh -huh. And then we also said just,
like, romance.

Okay.

Sci -fi. Sci -fi, definitely.

I mean, how else are we gonna, like...

Intrigue, guys. You know what I'm
saying? Like dinosaur stuff, maybe?

books? Dinosaur. Yeah, yeah, definitely.

Dino books. Um,

what else?

Uh...

You could do, you know, since we have
the ag department, you can hear they're

over there doing some exercises.

Yeah. You could do stuff on farming.

Farming? Farming.

Animal husbandry books?

What? That seems boring. All right, I
guess. I mean, hey, you have to have

something for everyone.

I guess.

Oh, animals, yeah, definitely.

Oh, we're going to need to get stuff to
make, like, signs and stuff for the

farms, I guess.

Do you think we can get your mom to take
us?

Before we start baking at your place?

Yeah. Would you put us together?

Okay. Because she won't just take me.
You know what? My mom can take us. Okay.

My mom can take us and then drop us off
at your place. Okay. That's where we can

bake. Yeah, my mom's a little lazy.

She'll want to do the cookies but then
drive us to the store.

It's okay. We can do it.

Be careful out here.

I know.

It's okay.

So that's that.

What else?

The signs.

Uh -huh. Yeah.

The cookies.

And the raffle. We want to have, like, a
raffle, but we don't know what to

raffle off. I was going to say, what are
you going to raffle off? What do you

think? I said clothing and shoes.

Shoes and clothing because the girls
here, I'm sure they're tired of their

uniform. Like, actually.

I would. I am.

Yeah. And then...

I'm sure you have plenty of extra stuff
at home that you don't wear anymore.

Yeah, exactly.

Yeah, you have cute dresses that you
don't wear anymore, so I know you could

raffle that off. I mean,

you could do like a 50 -50 raffle, you
know?

Okay, that would probably work.

These kids don't have a lot of money,
but... I'll probably sell the tickets

cheap, you know? Yeah, super cheap, like
less than five bucks or something.

Like, we don't need too much, just
enough, you know, to get the book

Right. I mean, it's not going to take
very much money to start a book club.

Yeah, exactly.

True. Do you have any other teachers
that you might be interested in or help

out?

I think we were pretty set on having you
help us out.

Oh, okay.

Yeah.

We don't need too much sponsorship.

Just need one. Be like, hey, this works,
go.

You know, we love having your class
together.

Really? Yeah. What other kind of books
do you think?

Sports.

Maybe cars.

Maybe,

I know we said farming, but like
gardening.

Oh, yeah. Something like that. Gardening
books. That's a popular topic.

Maybe some books about art.

Oh, there you go.

Art's a good one. Such a good one.

What else?

Oh, like sewing.

That would be fun to make clothing, too.

Oh, that's a good one. That would be
fun.

Actually, that would be so fun.

Because, like, sewing material is, like,
really cheap. So, like, you know, that

would be so fun.

Well,

we already said history.

Uh -huh. Right. And then it's lame.

Hey, that's... That would help you guys
learn.

We could learn.

Investing books, maybe? Like, maybe,
like, stock market books? Yeah. Why not?

Like, we might not even know, but we
could all learn together. You know what

saying? Exactly. It would be fun. This
is just a learning experience for the

whole class, and a way for everyone to,
like, get to know each other better.

That would be fun.

Did we say gardening already?

Yeah. What else?

Who's your favorite author?

Oh, my favorite author?

Um... Well,

I have too many. She doesn't read the
assignments I tell her to read. I have

many. I at least just try... When I pick
up my novel books, I just, like, read

them and then put them down.

But I do, like, magic books. That would
be fun. Like, we could all learn.

Yeah. That'd be so fun.

Like, card tricks and stuff. Yeah,
exactly.

because this year's talent show was so
lame i know there was no there was car

tricks there was nothing all they did
was just dancing and some girl did a

fashion show but no one participated so
it was just her so like it would be fun

for everyone to start learning magic oh
yeah the weird girl i mean she's cool

though hey she's cool she helped me with
one assignment before so i can't i

can't say nothing

She is really nice. That was mean.

Sorry. No, she's weird.

Did you see the dresses that she
brought? Are you serious? Who would wear

Where? Right? Like, so, honestly, that,
like, fashion, a fashion book would be

so nice because then she could join and
learn how to dress.

Exactly. Right?

Perfect.

My goodness.

Oh, my goodness. Trying to think.

Whoa.

Learning how to do hair would be
awesome.

Cosmetology. Yeah, that's the word.

Cos... Cosme... I can't even spell that.

Cosmetology. Or some spelling books.

Hey. Alright.

We'll do spelling too, because actually
this school's struggling.

Well, when you guys write your papers
for me, your spell is off.

Yeah.

Aviation.

Um...

Aviation. There you go. I got it.

Aviation.

Communication.

I think we have a pretty good selection
of books.

Maybe for fundraising we could do tie
-dye. We could make the tie -dye shirts.

And then sell that. Because we obviously
can't wear tie -dye here.

But it would be really fun to have a
group activity that everyone

You know, puts in a little money in. And
we just have a bunch of tie -dye stuff.

That would be so fun.

You guys can do tie -dye. You can even
get a hold of the art teacher to help

out. Yeah.

Nah. He's kind of weird.

Huh?

He's just like too strict for being art.
He's like, we already have a sponsor

anyway. Teach, we got you.

Well, I mean, I understand that, but
you're going to need more help than just

me. I can help you, but... I guess we
can ask him. He's not that bad.

He's a little strict. Are you kidding
me?

Are you kidding me? No, no.

Well, it's because you always forget
your...

He literally quizzed us on, like,
Picasso's year of painting. Dude, I

know. Can we just color, please? Like,
but you're right. Maybe he could. Yeah,

that's what we're interested in. I
actually like art class.

Well, there you go.

All right. Well, it sounds like you guys
have some pretty good ideas. I can help

you out, no problem.

Yeah, we've got some fundraiser ideas,
too.

Uh -huh. Yeah.

And we'll, uh...

Start putting all this together and get
it set up. Okay, perfect.

All right. Come on. All right. Don't
study too hard.

God, your mom's cakes look so good.

I know.

I'm surprised she made so many actually.
I know.

I'm so excited.

I got that.

Make sure no bugs get in there.

Okay. That's all.

There you go.

Scarf for sale.

My favorite character.

I know. Whatever.

It'll be such a good color. Exactly.

We'll make friends. Maybe.

Hopefully. That.

Make our signs.

Okay.

Awesome. Tickets.

Did you bring the marker?

Yeah, I have a marker.

Awesome.

Yeah,

I mean, yeah. That'll look good, yeah.
That'll be good. Want to start?

Yeah.

Okay.

It'd be like... Yeah, let's do... Fun
Book Club.

Fun... Join our fun book club.

Dino books and romance books. Romance.
You have to see that.

I don't want people to think we're,
like, prude or whatever.

Right. Yeah.

Because I would like to find a boyfriend
or somebody.

Or friends.

Yeah. Or friends.

You have better handwriting than me.
Okay.

Hey, girls. How's it going so far? Hi,
Miss Mia. Hey.

We're just making our signs and stuff.
Selling anything?

We sold a few things, but we've only
sold things.

Well, yeah, but our mom dropped us off,
so someone wanted a cookie when we got

here. Yeah, a few cookies, yeah.

We made a few dollars.

Oh, nice.

Anyone join the club?

No, not yet. No.

Really?

Really.

Kind of upsetting, but...

We haven't even put out signs or
anything yet, so we're hoping.

Yeah, we talked to some of our friends,
but no one really joined.

Yeah.

Book club. Fun.

Book club. Fun.

Fun. Look on the side. Yeah, I'll do fun
right here.

Fun.

Yeah. What are other good description
words?

Um. Um.

Um. Sci -fi novels?

Yeah, sci -fi.

You guys didn't have anyone sign up,
huh? Not yet.

We're hoping after we put out the signs
and sell a few more raffle tickets on

sci -fi books.

I guess students just aren't into
ancient literature these days.

I guess not. I mean, not really.

But that's why I like my novel books,
because it's all about imagination.

Yeah.

Romance books.

Romance books.

Yeah, that's cute. I like the star right
there.

I know.

Her mom literally makes the best
cookies. I see that. Those are homemade,

They are.

Nice. Her kitchen just smells so good.

Usually it takes her a lot to convince
you to make it, but she actually did

time. Really? Yeah.

With no problem. Yeah.

Well, she loves having me over.

It's only because you were there. I
know, I know.

You know that. She loves you.

She won't do it just for me.

I think the sign's looking great.

Yeah, this is cute.

I'm really happy with it. This would
entice anyone to join our book club.

Hopefully. You guys are getting there. I
think you're on to something.

Hey, thank you, Brock.

You're awesome.

Romance. There you go.

Yes, that's cute.

Thank you. Yeah, I like the blue and the
green together like that. Yeah. Come

on.

Friends.

Friends, yes, do that.

Let's really highlight the fact that
it's a book club. Okay. Book club.

Friend. Knowledge.

Oh, yeah.

You're going to learn.

I mean... That sounds nerdy.

Yeah, but... Well, sometimes that's
people that do read books. They're

Well, I guess you got a point there. And
we do need this for the sponsors.

Oh, that's true. It can't just be, like,
super fun, because then... Yeah, who's

going to sponsor it? Like, it's too much
fun.

No way.

Is that how you spell knowledge?

I'm pretty sure.

Yeah, that's right. Yeah.

Yeah.

Well, we're going to have spelling books
in the book club anyway, so it doesn't

matter.

That's true. We'll be learning.

Yeah.

There you go.

Who has the better handwriting?

Do you want to try to write the raffle?

Yeah, we'll do the raffle. Here, you do
the raffle one while I take this one

off, okay? Okay.

It's in your hand, silly.

Let's do it in like... Yeah, we'll do
that and then... So you just write

on here uh do it like i'll tape this up
yeah there

you go you have to make it fun i mean
you

know they want to have fun yeah

that's cute

and then it's like

There we go.

We got the tape on there.

There you go. You can hang that out
front.

Yep.

Here, go out front. I can help you with
this.

Nice.

Close.

Yeah, close.

Oh, we could do a date sale sign.

Yeah, I would do that for sure.

Yeah.

Yeah, it also looks good. Yeah, it looks
great.

It's only for today or tomorrow anyway,
so it doesn't matter.

I think my table's starting to look
really good.

I know, I'm so proud of us. Look how
much work we've done. I know.

These cookies look great.

Let's set up this place.

We could do like... Your mom's bringing
the rest of the clothes later, right?

Or no, that's my mom.

Yeah.

I'm like, um... My mom's lazy.

Yeah, she already did the cookies.
Exactly.

So we do clothes, cookies, and then we
have...

It is just

books, so people are kind of iffy.

For your makeup. They don't want to be
called nerds.

I know, exactly.

That's why we need some fun books in
there, too.

Yeah, that's true.

That's all.

Clothes, cookies, makeup.

Oh, I like those. Those are fun topics.

You would think more girls would join at
least.

Like, okay, but I want boys to join.
What should we do?

Yeah, Mr. Rock, how do we get boys to
join?

You girls are always chasing boys
around, aren't you?

Yeah.

We are young girls.

Those comics. Boy crazy.

Yeah. Oh, comic books. That's such a
good idea.

That's not a bad idea.

I think that looks nice.

It would be like really cheap.

Man,

there's not a lot of people out today.

Yeah, it's okay.

Because we've been trying to do this
anyways.

Or at least try to. We've been talking
about it. Can we put stars?

Yeah. I'll be like...

Oh,

you put it. Yeah, I put it. That's so
cool.

That's so pretty.

I think so too.

Let me add another little lurk.

Boys in an exclamation mark.

There's already two girls.

Exactly, yeah. We need a good ratio.

We need five boys.

Two girls. At least.

How many people are you looking to get
in this club total?

About ten.

At least.

Well, there's two to start.

And then we need eight boys.

I mean, maybe another girlfriend.

Yeah, that weird girl.

I think she...

It would be really cool to hang out
with.

You know.

We should buy some of our raffle tickets
for our clients. Oh, my goodness.

That's so true.

Yeah. Use the gold ones.

Oh, the gold ones. Yeah.

What do you do?

Oh, hey. Do you want to buy a raffle
ticket?

What? You don't need to talk to us. Why?

Why?

We're trying so hard and working so
hard.

You girls are very approachable.

I think so, too.

I think so.

I don't see why they wouldn't want to
talk to you. Raffle.

Oh,

yeah, yeah. Go ahead and write it.

They just came by and walked by and
didn't want to buy anything.

Just get a cookie!

You could've just gotten a cookie or
something.

Are the cookies free?

Yeah. Yeah, it entices people to come up
to the book club. I mean, we're trying

to charge them, you know?

Yeah. But I think it does just get more
attention if we offer it. Exactly.

My mom's gonna be mad, but it's fine.

Okay, I'll talk to her. Yeah, you talk
to her. You talk to her.

It won't be an issue.

Yeah, that's a good idea.

That might get people over.

Just hold it. I think it'd be funner.
You know what I'm saying? Like, hey,

cookies.

Join our club, though. Free cookies. If
you want a free cookie. I'll say

courtesy of book club.

Yeah.

And in order to get the cookie, they
have to put their name down.

We won't trick them. No, we don't have
to trick them, but that would be funny.

Courtesy of book club.

After we're done with the prize, I'll
just fold this thing.

Okay, yeah.

See, I get a free cookie because of you
holding it, you know? You want more of

our cookies?

No, they're so good.

I do.

Um, one more sign.

Free cookie.

Oh, a sign -up sheet.

Put your name first. That way they see
you're in it.

You know?

Up.

Up.

Up. Up. Up. Up. Up.

Up. Up.

Up. Up.

Up.

You're just as popular as me. We both
have no friends.

Well, I guess.

Yeah.

I think

you

guys are gonna have good success.

True, we just started right now. It's
only been like an hour or less, so.

Oh,

you're so nice, Selena. Thanks.

Oh, yeah.

Yeah, we're working so hard on this.
We've been talking about this for so

I've noticed. Trust me, I've noticed.

I think it's going to be a great stuff.

Oh, yeah.

Yeah, that way people know we really
have cookies.

Yeah, okay.

Let's do it.

Yes, let's do it.

Put those on the trash, too.

This. Here. Well, do you want to... You
want to put one more thing? Yeah, one

more thing. Maybe we should tape a cake,
too.

We know we have cakes.

Yeah.

I think so too.

We're trying our best. Did you guys ever
find a mentor?

We didn't. Nobody was going to ask you.

I mean, that adds like three more hours
of work to my day every day.

What? It's only three hours, though.

Huh? What are you doing after?

Yeah, what are you doing after?

That's so important.

Well, you know I have to get home to my
wife.

But that's more important than book
club.

This is fun. Yeah.

Fine. I'll help you. I will be the
mentor.

We can start by having the first meeting
in my office, okay?

Okay. Okay. Yay.

I'm going to go in there and set things
up.

See, that looks so nice.

Yeah. Now who's not going to come?

Who doesn't want to join the book club
now?

Sign up.

Sign up.

Oh, hey, girls.

Hey, Teej. What's up?

Hey, how'd you end up out there?

Well, not too good.

What do you mean?

We only signed up for the book club.

We barely sold any of our tickets.

All the cookies are gone, though.

Really? Yeah. So people actually
stopped.

People did stop.

We didn't get any sign -ups yet, though.

What's the next step?

Um... I guess just start meeting weekly
and helping people show up.

Yeah. You know? Like, start hyping it
up. Like, oh, I had so much fun at the

book club.

Uh -huh. It was just so great. And maybe
people will be like, wow, why is it so

great? Right. And then be interested in
it. Yeah. And want to join. Yeah,

exactly. Give it hype.

Between us. Yeah. It should be enough.

Yeah. What about the G?

Did any of the popular kids stop by?

To grab some cookies.

Yeah. That was it. That was it, yeah.

That weird girl, she was interested.

Oh, she came by?

Yeah, she did.

Oh, that's funny.

Well, I mean, I think what we should do
is we should definitely meet every week.

Yeah. You know?

Do you guys have a meeting place where
you think you want to meet?

We'd love to come to your office if
that's a good office.

And then from there we could go to the
library or something.

Or the outside school room would be cool
too. Yeah, that would be fun.

Yeah, that's always a good place.

Okay, so what you need to do is you need
to get the meeting set up every week.

Okay. Alright, so you guys are going to
have to stay on top of it and get it.

lined up, announce it, all of that
stuff.

Do the, you know, hype it, like you
said, hype it up.

Yeah. Exactly. Okay.

Maybe we can even get them to do it in
morning announcements.

Yeah, that's an option.

Yeah. Yeah.

You could definitely do that. I can talk
to the office and we can get something

lined up for sure.

That would be awesome. And the morning
announcements and, like, after school

too. That way people could remember, you
know what I'm saying? Exactly. And we

can talk and say what book we're
reading.

Oh, yeah.

Yeah, we could do that. Yeah.

And that way, you know, if someone hears
something they might like, like

aerospace or something like that, they
could...

They might come by. That could be
another way to get people. Yeah, get

attention, get it going.

We do, like, conflict with me, too, you
know?

Right. Stay on top of it. Yeah, we can't
just do, like, once a week. We can do,

like, twice a week. That way people are
like, oh, they're actually really

trying, and, you know? Uh -huh. Yeah,
yeah. We could try that.

Absolutely. But that's going to be on
you guys. What are some ideas you think

you have to hype it up?

The morning announcements thing, like
Sona said, the afternoon announcements.

Uh -huh.

Oh, the screen at the football field.

Oh, so those are advertised for local
businesses? Maybe you can see if they

could do one for a book club.

Why wouldn't they? They did it for,
like, the chess club. Yeah, so why

they do the book club? Exactly.

Okay, that's a couple options.

Yeah, basically.

Maybe during lunch would be nice, too.
Yeah. Maybe we could have the chess

like, come do, like, a swap.

Right. Like,

we'll go to the chess club, and then,
like, two of theirs would come to the

club, and then they'd be like, oh, wow,
this is actually interesting.

Exactly. You know? And I'm sure once we
pick out, like, interesting books, you

know, people will want to... That's
true.

That's true.

We could, like, swap and then get some
books going.

And book club people might have the same
thing.

You know, same type of interest or
similar type of personality as... As the

chess, yeah, that's so true, honestly.

Yeah, you never know.

It'll be fun, hopefully.

But, yeah. I mean, I wish people would
have joined today because the book we're

reading right now is really cool. Oh,
what is it?

Well, it's this romance novel about this
guy from Latin America.

Uh -huh.

And he, like, just decides to go to
Europe one day because he's, you know,

looking for someone to fall in love
with.

Mm -hmm.

And basically, he just meets this, like,
wonderful girl over there, and they

don't even speak the same language, but
they somehow fall in love just by, like,

vibes and just being, like... Like
charades at first. Like charades at

yeah. And it's really cool because it
doesn't matter what language they speak.

It's, like, how they feel about each
other. And that's what makes it, like,

beautiful.

So, yeah, it's, like, that's, like, what
true love is. Like, it doesn't even

have to be with words. Like, they're
just hanging out and talking.

Like you said, charades at first, but
that's what makes it fun. It's, like,

should be fun. And you shouldn't be so,
like. Exactly. And it wasn't, like, just

about the love either. Like, that story
was crazy.

There's so many things.

There was, like, talking animals. Yeah.
Oh, talking animals. That's what made

it, like, what?

You know, it's what makes it a little
fantasy, but also... Yeah, and the

too. The great aliens that came out.

It was wild. There was this whole, like,
plot point where, like, the girl he was

talking to, she almost fell in love with
the aliens, and he had to get her back

through, because no one spoke the same
language. Exactly, and she was vibing

with the aliens a little bit more than
with the Latin American man.

I didn't realize that, like...

all it is is superficial.

Right, it was superficial.

It was superficial with the aliens.
Like, that's not true love. No, it

It's not.

It was so beautiful.

It was beautiful.

And they had, like, the best story with,
like, they tried each other's food,

which was super awesome.

They tried each other's, like, clothing,
which was super awesome.

Wait, the aliens and the girl, right?
No, no, the girl and the Latin American.

I see you didn't even finish reading it,
huh?

I thought I'm, like, three -fourths of
the way through. Okay, yeah, so, like, I

don't know.

The aliens were basically like... They
were a big side story.

I feel like they took too much time.

Yeah, I agree on this. The lead -up. The
lead -up, yeah. The character build.

There's a lot of jealousy, and I think
that's kind of hot, you know? Because,

like, okay, these aliens are, like,
attracted to humans in some sense, but

like, human love is what makes it
better. Exactly. Where did the guy go? I

forget. He went to Europe.

France,

and...

Belgium. Oh, wow.

Yeah. You met her in Belgium. Yeah, but
she was originally from Czechoslovakia.

Oh. Yeah. She was over there, you know,
working.

Exactly. Different life for herself.

She would have never thought. She wasn't
even looking for love, was it? Exactly.

She was going after her career.

Yeah. She was all about her hustle, her
career.

That's all that matters. Such a good
book, Mr.

Rock. You really need to read it. Yeah,
it was super romantic.

I mean, of course, a little bit with the
jealousy, but that's what makes it kind

of hot, you know?

Yeah. Yeah.

What do you think they were trying to
say, you know?

I think they were trying to say that,
like, I don't know, they're kind of

what matters is, like, the vibes.

Like, it really matters. Absolutely.

What's meant to be will be.

Exactly. Yeah.

And that's beautiful.

I think it's beautiful, too.

Yeah. I mean...

I love romance novels. It still makes it
so fun. And I love sci -fi. So I'm so

glad it was a good mix. It was a mix.
For both of us. It was a mix. In that

universe, you know, it was kind of just
like... It was the perfect read. And I

really wish we had other friends.

I know.

It's a kid. It's a first day trying. You
don't think?

That's true. I mean, listen, it's going
to take time. And like you said, if you

can just type it.

then that'll help.

That's awesome.

It's like, okay, first day, no one. But
who knows, tomorrow we might have three

people. You said that, weird girl. She
did get some things. Yeah. You know, we

could, like, tomorrow during lunch, we
could invite her and tell her about the

romance with the humans, you know?

And she'd be like, what, is that even a
real book? And I'm like, yeah, it is.

It's actually super good. Yeah, it's
super good.

You can't even tell that it's, like, sci
-fi, you could say. You know what I'm

saying? It's more of, like, an
integrated... Like a romance.

Romance. Personal journey.

Coming of age.

And coming of, like... I don't know, I
really liked her hustle. Like, she was

such a hard worker, and...

It was about love, but it was also about
the independence of women, too.

Exactly. And it's like, wow, it's really
cool that she found love.

She became a nice little manager at her
job. So it's like, wow, she really did

so much for herself.

You said she was from an intergalactic
ambassador.

Exactly. Exactly. How amazing.

A queen. A queen, literally.

What a goddess.

Oh my goodness, so fun.

Super awesome.

Do you have any ideas for the next book
you want to read?

I think it was pretty cool when we were,
like, suggesting, like, the gardening

one. Like, that would be really fun.

Yeah. You know, we're at a school that
has so much greenery. Like, it would be

so cool to start putting, like,
different types of ecosystems out here.

And, like, I mean, we already have a
sponsor, so I'm sure we'll be allowed to

put, like, different flowers and
different, like...

you know, different types of things that
are not fresh here. Like, that would be

so cool.

And, you know, it's actually interesting
people who aren't even that excited

about reading.

That is so true because, like, more
hands -on, you know? So it's like, hey,

could read something, the first chapter,
second chapter, and then, like, okay,

guys, let's go plant to these actual,
like...

These actual plants and these actual
flowers. It would be so cool. We need to

more interactive.

A cooking book, too. A cooking book
would be nice. A history of food or

something. Exactly. We haven't even used
the kitchen fully, so it's like, okay.

Some classes are kind of lame.

I can talk to the home ec. Yeah.

I'll talk to the home ec teacher and be
like, hey, we want to do an interactive

book club.

Not just a regular book club. Like a
cool book club. Yeah, exactly. Yeah.

Just get attraction from, like,
everyone, you know? Not just, like, you

the jocks or the nerds from the chess
club. Like, it could be anyone who just

wants to do something fun after school.
Right.

All we do is study for, like, so long.

Like, in a prestige school, so it's,
like, I mean, we already have the

knowledge. Just, like, it'd be fun to
just go out, you know? Like, just, like,

have some fun.

Yeah.

Yeah, I think what I'll do is I'll talk
to the home run teacher.

Awesome, thank you. We could probably
get that lined up.

Yeah, that would be so fun.

Because obviously we need, you know,
someone, there are two watches, but it's

like, okay, if we have at least one
person, you know, Mr. Rock would be you,

then it would be awesome.

Like, I think it would be awesome.

We could get, you know, I'm sure we
could get Jaime from the...

From the home ec, the home ec teacher?

Yeah. He would probably stay.

Honestly, I think he would too. And help
out. I don't see why he wouldn't.

Yeah. Tony's pretty cool too.

He's a cool dude, right? Yeah. He's just
boring, but we could, we could make it

spiced up. Yeah. We don't need him, but
like.

Well, you're going to have to have
someone there, right?

Legally. I guess so. That's true.

Keep an eye on him.

That's true.

He's a really good cook.

He is.

What kind of food does he make?

Mostly Peruvian. You're right. Yeah.

Have you ever had that? I've never had
Peruvian. No?

Oh, it's so good. I've never took it as
class.

Oh, you haven't? Not yet. I thought you
both took it.

No, not yet. That's next semester.

I still have something else. I was like,
no.

Yeah. But we'll try that now. We could
have an interactive book club. That

be awesome. That's a great idea.

Yeah.

An interactive club.

Because they may like it. You know,
everyone likes to eat.

Of course, we need to eat, right?

Yeah. Exactly.

So, yeah, that would be a good one.

Yeah, it would be super fun. What were
the, do you guys know, what were some of

the, do you know any other details of
the book?

So basically, we started off with the
main guy, and it was basically...

You know, he was on every single dating
app that didn't work.

Right. And basically realized that,
like, okay, there has to be something

than just, like, you know, this.

Which is true. It's like, wow, we're in
a modern technology society.

And you see, his problem was he just
wanted, like, a blonde -haired, blue

girl, and he was Latin American. So all
the dating apps were filled with Latin

American women. Right. That makes sense.
So that's why he had to go to Europe.

Ah, so then he did all right over there.
Right, I guess so, yeah. He really did.

He tried his hardest not to use the apps
and stuff. He actually went to go

interact with the girls. So I'm like,
okay, let's get away from the apps.

get away from texting. Let's actually go
interact.

He went to a coffee shop, and luckily
his first coffee shop, he actually had

luck there and found her. And I was
like, okay, cool.

Yeah, she was the barista.

Really? Yeah. It was adorable, actually.

Yeah, it was like the perfect love
story, you know?

He didn't have to try hard like he did
in Latin America.

Like, he just went over there.

They didn't instantly click. That's what
makes it kind of funny, because you

would think, oh, she's never been with a
Latin American man. He's never been

with a European woman, so it was
something that...

She was hesitant because of it, really.
Exactly. You don't see a lot in America.

Many people were there in Europe. So she
was like, at first, you know, the first

week of him coming every day at 3 p .m.
is what kind of caught her eye because

she kind of rejected him at first. Yeah,
her family, you know, they're Eastern

European. They weren't having it, you
know. Yeah.

There were some elements of racism, too.

Oh, wow. Yeah.

I mean, I could see that, I guess. Yeah.

In some sense, with her family. But she
isn't. But she wasn't. She was very open

and accepting.

Very accepting. The consistency of a man
trying, you know, every day at 3 p .m.

She checked that, like, wow, he's really
here at 3 p .m.

Every time.

There was a question in it, and I was
like, okay.

wow, he really cares about this girl.
She kind of realized, wow, he really

about me, you know? Because, hey, you're
visiting me at work.

It doesn't have to be anything special.

You don't have to go on the most
expensive date to get to know me.

Just try it.

Put effort.

Exactly.

That's what makes it so beautiful.

Rejection at first, but then she
realized, okay, the weekend's going on.

Just, like, they're trying to, like, go
out and go, you know. Because she wanted

to go to that one party. What?

When I was, like, I don't remember.

She didn't want to go alone, though.
That's why. Exactly. She didn't want to

alone. Yeah. Because European parties go
so crazy. So hot. She was not.

She wasn't trying to do that by herself.

Right. And, like, that's what makes it
so, like, masculine. Like, oh, he wants

to protect her at this party. Right. And
then she, you know, she really

appreciated that. You know? She really
did. I think that's so cute, you know?

He's so cute.

Like, imagine having a man just, like,
try for you every day at 3pm. I can't

even. I can't even either.

I love romance novels.

And was she, like, going out? Were they
going out on other dates at the same

time or not really?

No, they only went, like, basically on
that one party date, and they fell in

love. She wasn't really into him. That's
why he would come every day to be like,

hey, let's try it. Let's, like, you
know, I'm funny, I'm cool, I'm different

than these other European guys. I
protect my woman, you know? Like, I'm

to be some kind of macho man, and she's
not used to that.

Right. Yeah, that was, like, their date
where he showed his protections for her.

I kind of felt for him after that.

Because like I said, this part you feel
wild.

Yeah. That's like real life. Like it
really is like, wow, having a man just

protect you through a party or at the
coffee shop, you know, like it's just so

good. Yeah. Yeah.

Sometimes I get it. You know, like the
aliens were at that party and it was

something that was kind of a
distraction.

Yeah. It's like he really showed off for
her.

Right. Yeah. That's what makes it
special.

They're always doing that.

I mean, that's true, right? Or showing
off.

Showing off. Yeah, that's what makes it,
like, so good. But not showing up. And

this man, he showed up. He showed up.
That is so true. He showed up. Yeah.

That book is just beautiful.

It really was. It's probably one of my
top three books.

Really? Yeah, next to The Odyssey.

There you go.

Yeah. Yeah.

These are really nice.

But I do like, you know, more fun
things.

It's like the aliens in love. It was
such an interesting book, too. There's

many plot points.

Yeah.

You learn a little after it. You learn
more about it. You learn more about,

like, how to accept others and how to,
like, see others for more than just...

their, like, physical self, you know? It
has cultural differences.

Yeah, exactly. And language barriers.

Yeah. Too many language barriers, which
I think is what makes it fun, you know?

Because I'm like, okay, they have to
really have vibes with each other. They

really have to, you know, play the
charade game.

You know, and that's what makes it,
like, wow.

He's actually, like, she realizes, wow,
he's actually trying for me.

And, like, these European guys, like,
they won't even...

text from back.

So it's like, right, one of his manners
at the coffee shop every day. Every day.

Like, literally, like, just charading.

You know? Yeah. Exactly.

Climbing. Climbing. They would just,
like, there was points of the books

it would say, they would stare at each
other's eyes for an hour, and it's like,

what? Who does that? Right.

Like, who actually does that? Yeah,
that's weird.

I don't think I used to do that. Yeah, I
don't know.

It makes you super romantic.

Yeah.

I really hope we can find one like that
one day.

Honestly, I think we deserve it. We're
like pretty good girls.

Yeah. This one makes it fun. One day
when we get out of school.

Yeah, exactly.

You guys have to graduate first.

Right.

Yeah. But I think once you guys graduate
and you make your way to college and

all that, you're going to be really
doing things.

Mm -hmm.

What are you going to do after school,
Sona?

I want to continue.

I really like romance novels, so I just
want to be a writer.

I could make up some really good stuff,
and maybe I don't have to make up. Maybe

I'll find true love, you know, and space
upon that.

Like almost manifest it through your
writing. Yeah, exactly, exactly.

Yeah.

You have always been a pretty good
writer.

I can attest to that.

Oh, thank you.

Yeah, I can say the same.

I think you're going to do really well.

What do you want to do, Selena?

I want to be an astrophysicist.

Oh, wow.

Interesting.

I have great grades in science.

Yeah, you do. That's for sure.

That is the truth there.

What did you want to do when you were in
school?

Well, I originally thought I wanted to
become a doctor, but I became a teacher.

And it's been great, honestly. I can't
say that I'm mad about it or upset or

anything, but it wasn't what I thought I
was going to do, that's for sure.

That's okay. Sometimes life leads you in
different directions, you know.

That's true. I feel like being a teacher
would be fun, too.

It is, absolutely.

Yeah, it's fun. It really is.

Plus, it's very rewarding.

It must be rewarding meeting all kinds
of amazing students, you know.

Yeah, absolutely.

Yep. A lot of good students over the
years.

A lot of them stay in touch, which is
great.

How long have you been teaching for, Mr.
Rock? I think like six years now.

So it's been great.

Good. Yeah.

I'm pretty excited about it.

Any other cool stories from the book I
need to know about? I'm going to read

actually. The proposal.

When he finally proposed to her.

After the first week of meeting. I know.
I love that. That's what makes it,

like, cute.

I honestly forgot about that because
it's like, wow.

It's amazing that they just met at her
job and they fell in love.

Isn't it crazy how people just go out in
real life and just meet people, and

then maybe that person that you meet is
someone you're going to spend the rest

of your life with? Right, and you don't
even speak the same language. Right.

Like, the book didn't even say that they
learned each other's languages.

It was like, what? Really?

Oh, my God.

It never did say that they learned each
other's languages, did it? No, it

didn't.

I can't wait until they release the
second version.

It's going to be so awesome. Yeah, the
sequel to it. Yeah, the sequel.

Oh, there's another one coming? Yeah.

This year.

Yeah, but they're still, like, not done
with it. Oh, wow. So I'm like, wow.

That's amazing.

How are they going to, um, how are they,
you know, make the, how are they going

to make the second one? The second one?

Because, like, how is it? They got
married.

And I'm just thinking, wow, are they
going to have kids?

Or how are they going to do with such a
gap of language?

Yeah. Well, they still don't know each
other's language. No. By the book, they

still don't. Really? They get married.
Yeah, that's what makes it so fucking

awesome. Oh, my God. True love, you
know?

Yeah. Literally true love.

They know I love you with each other's
languages.

That's true. That's super cute. Yeah.

No, you think they're more fluent in
each other's native tongue.

They get married.

Yeah. And they have a, I mean, her
parents, you know, they might not

at first, but they realize, like,
exactly, they come around.

That's what makes it great.

Because she tells them about, like, the,
you know, the alien situation.

Right. And then they're like, okay, no,
you know what? Like, it can't be.

It's what makes you happy. It's not what
people try to, like, push you into, you

know? So the alien thing was just, you
know.

Distraction. And our family realized,
like, we don't want our daughter to be

distracted.

Right, right. We want her to be happy
and in love and cared about.

And, yeah, that's pretty fun. Like,
that's pretty fun.

Wow. That's really, like, romantic.

It's a really great message.

Huh. It is a great message.

It really is a great message. You know,
when I think about it, I'm like, wow.

I think they should be teaching more
things like that in school, honestly.

Yeah. It might help.

It should make people laugh. So, yeah.

Let people be more open -minded, you
know? Yeah.

That's probably a good idea.

Yeah. The marriage is awesome, though.
Like... Super cute. Yeah, they're, like,

obviously... There were doves at the
wedding. Yeah, there were doves.

A lot of dogs. Because her family, like,
kind of, like, sponsored it, you know?

They wanted to have it. She's rich.
She's rich. She's a lot more. Yeah. But

wanted to be independent from her rich
family.

That's true.

That's true.

Yeah.

That's what makes her, like, you know, a
boss girl, you know? An independent

queen. Exactly.

Oh, wow. Yeah.

Wow. Something that I strive for, you
know?

She's a great role model, honestly.

She is. She really is.

Yeah.

Huh.

How, what was the wedding? They had a
big wedding. They had a huge wedding.

Yeah. Yeah.

It's huge. Yeah. Her parents. Her
parents. Yeah,

exactly. They've been, so I guess her
father was in the construction business

for a really, really long time. Yeah, in
Europe, which is. Yes. And he built the

apartment homes for all of the.

Do you remember what it was? Migrant
workers.

Oh. Even though, you know, he had a
little bit of a racism in him. Yes. He

realized, like, wow.

He's been wrong. He's been wrong. Yeah.

He didn't realize that until, you know,
Latin American guy came in and was like,

wow, this is great.

And so really, he helped kind of their
whole community because the rich girl's

father was then kinder to the migrant
workers.

That's true. Oh, so that kind of worked
out. That kind of worked out for

everyone. It was really, it was a super
feel -good story. Yeah. A feel -good

story is a good one, yeah.

Yeah.

And then how did he, was he, like, some
extravagant proposal?

There was, yeah. Do you remember the
proposal scene?

I mean, I would say it was pretty well
-deserving, you know what I'm saying?

Like, it was something at her job.

Yeah, he went to her job, and then he,
like, just fell down to his knees and

started crying.

Crying his eyes out. After the party,
because he was like, I can't lose you

again. And she was like, well, he really
cares about me.

Really?

It's like real deep love.

If you had to reenact the proposal.

Come on, Sora.

You remember how it went. He just fell
down.

Exactly.

He fell down to his knees.

sobbing, just tears. He was like, I
can't lose you. You're the most

goddess ever.

But in his native language, so she
really didn't know what he was saying.

all vibes, you know? It was like
charades. He was crying.

He went like, please.

He was begging for her to be like,
please.

We are forever.

We are together.

Please, please.

Marry me.

Oh, he pointed at the finger. Yeah, he
pointed at the finger. And then he

pointed at her.

She accepted.

She did. She did. It was beautiful. At
the end, she was crying, he was crying.

He was crying. The whole store was
crying. Everyone was crying. It was so

beautiful. It really was.

Just a great work of literature,
honestly. True love, actually.

All you need is the energy of two
people. Just vibes, you know?

And now, were they, like, in the end,
were they, when everyone said, were

like, kissing?

Of course, of course. After everyone
kind of calmed down.

Yeah, it was very passionate and lovely.

Yeah, like, they're basically, like,
they're jealous. I'm so jealous.

I've never had a kiss. Me neither. I've
never had a kiss either.

No. Oh, my goodness.

Neither have you had? No.

Oh, wow.

No. It's such a shame. No.

It's like, you want to try how that
