Cedric was sitting on one of the sofas available in the waiting room of the Guest Hall, a building available for those who were visiting current students and staff. An open book was perched on his lap as he flipped through the pages. His younger and more idiotic twin, Brayden, was pacing back and forth.
"How come that moron was allowed to go to dinner but not us?"
"It was a privilege that he earned," Cedric replied without looking up.
"Yeah? He probably cheated his way into higher levels! That moron couldn't even do the homework from the in-home schooling!"
That's only because you would tear up his work before he could hand it in, Cedric thought to himself.
The doors to the Guest Hall opened and their mother strode in.
"Mother!" Brayden stopped his pacing and ran over to their mother. He wrapped his arms around her.
"Brayden, you'll smash the cakes," their mother warned while trying to save the cardboard box in her hand.
