[ The bell rings and many school kids are walking out of the classroom, including Selina. She has an empty hour. As she walks in the hallway, she is sometimes greeted by “Hi, Selina!”, “What’s new?”, etc. and answers briefly. She finds Jessica and Jonathan standing next to Jessica’s locker and approaches them. ]
Selina: Oh, there you are. Hi Jess, hi Jon.
Jessica: Selina! I see you’ve survived History class.
Selina: Yeah, I’ll take it one lesson at a time, I guess.
[ Jonathan hugs Selina from the side and eventually leaves. ]
Selina: So how are you two love-birds?
Jessica: Oh, this and that, discussing computers endlessly as usual.
Selina: [ Sarcastically ] Geeks!
Jessica: Heh, like you’re not a geek too.
Selina: This reminds me. I really should update my Mandriva system at home. I have not in several days, now. And to think I originally had my friend Aaron install Mandrake Linux for me, because I thought it was cool that it was called the same as my last name.
Jessica: Heh, maybe you should become Selina Mandriva now.
[ Selina bursts out laughing. ]
Selina: That sounds like a name of a vampire slayer… or a vampire.
Selina: Yeah. I told you about how I was nicknamed “Puffy” and then “Buffy” during one summer camp, right?
Jessica: Yes, many times.
Selina: Yeah, I found it amusing at the time. For a while afterwards, I insisted that my friends call me “Buffy” until I realised it was silly, and reverted back to “Selina”.
Jessica: Anyway, I’m off to gym.
[ Selina is reading a book and says to herself out loud ]
Selina: Selina “Buffy” Mandrake. The Slayer. I like the sound of it.
