"I don't think so," You reply. "I just need to buckle down and focus. I don't need drugs for that."
"Suit yourself," Kelly laughed as she broke a pill in half. "You really need to loosen up, Mel. Try having some fun once in your life and not worry about the consequences."
Kelly popped half of the pill into her mouth and swallowed. She slid the other half of the pill across the table to you. Grabbing her water bottle, she took a big swig to clear the taste out of her mouth.
"What did you just do?" You gasp. "Why on earth would you do that?"
"Relax, Mels-bells," Kelly laughs. "When I need to study extra hard I take half a pill. As far as I can tell, it regresses my mind back to that of a thirteen year-old. At least I think it's my old thirteen year-old mind. Most of junior high and high school is a blur."
You stare down at the other half of the pill. Kelly made a good point, and she has been taking J for quite a while and does not appear to have any side effects. But you had made your decision, and are not going to waffle.
"I'm sorry, but I'm not interested," You say.
"Fine," Kelly answers, as she sticks her tongue out at you. "Then give it back."
You slide the pill back to Kelly. Kelly takes the pill and puts it back into the plastic bag that she kept hidden in her purse.
"Do you want to go to the mall? Or go get pizza? Studying is boring," Kelly said, her words racing. "We don't need to study, let's go have fun."
"Oh great," You mutter, "You're a teenager again."
