When our dreams are shining C-2-Make friends
#2 of When our dreams are shining
[alarm clock rings]
"Come on, I really want to sleep again" Corman threw the alarm clock in the trash, got up, and went into the bathroom to shower and brush his teeth.
Corman comes downstairs and sees his mother preparing breakfast. He sits on the stool and enjoys his sandwich. After eating, he puts his plate in the sink and finds a cupboard in disrepair.
He opened the cabinet and inside was a map of the city from 1969. In this map, he could see that in 1969, the two cities were separate, but in 1972, when the country was reorganized, the government integrated the two cities into a single, unified city.
This is not unusual for Corman, who is very fond of history and has spent a lot of time searching for information about the history of the country, as well as looking for the history of the country that has never been recorded before, which is no big deal for him.
"Hmm. What are you dawdling about? Millie looked at Corman, who was dawdling, and Corman, who had just reacted, looked at his mother.
"Oh, I have to go."
Walking to the school bus waiting station Corman heard the mailman complaining "I envy you teenagers for being so optimistic" Corman didn't understand, asking "This is a great city, such a beautiful city, with such a great view, why are you so downbeat"
The mailman laughed lightly " It is a beautiful city but if you had a dream you wouldn't think so "
The mailman disappeared inexplicably, and Corman was surprised. He wondered if he hadn't slept well last night.
The school bus arrives and Corman enters the bus and many students are talking inside the bus and it looks like many of them are not available to talk to him but he sees a wolf which accidentally ran into him yesterday.
This wolf was sitting in the last row, and there were no students in the seats next to him, so Corman had a chance to make friends.
"Hi," Corman says to the wolf. "Oh, it's you. I didn't expect you to be here," the wolf says. "Me too, by the way. What's your name?" Corman sat next to the wolf.
"Nurtus ...... Nurtus Kles" the wolf said his name and he was shy "Nice name I'll introduce my name my name is Corman Tverskov" after Corman introduced his name the wolf smiled and looked the other way he blushed and rubbed his head for a moment
"Ok Corman, I wanted to tell you that tomorrow is my birthday, will you come to my house for my birthday party?" Corman froze he thought for a moment and then said "Okay, I will attend your birthday party, but that depends on whether my mother agrees"
The bus had arrived at the front of the school and Mrs. Limey instructed the students, "Please be safe when you get off the bus." When Corman got off the bus, Mrs. Limey stopped him, "New students come with me to the principal's office first." Corman was nervous but he answered, "Ok."
"So, Corman Tverskov, right? You can call me Mrs. Limey. Welcome to a Corkham High School. Before you come to the principal's office, let me tell you about the school."
Corman didn't quite understand the tiger teacher, he just thought she spoke nicely.
"Corkham High School was built in 1979 and was the first high school after the merger of two cities. The founder, whose name was Iopni Lemster, an otter, was born in Olivet in 1958 and passed away in 1991, leaving behind this school."
"It's a shame he died at the age of 33. I wonder what his moral character was." (The story is set in 2003.) Corman thought that if Iopni had lived, he would have been only middle-aged, but for now, he couldn't have cared less.
Corman enters the principal's office, and the principal is sitting in a chair waiting for him. "Corman Tverskov."
"Yes, what is it?" Corman sat in his chair still nervous about the principal when the principal spoke "So welcome to Corkham High School as a new student at this school you are expected to follow the rules it's for your own good and for the good of the school"
"Excuse me sir, but what kind of student do you think I am?" Corman questioned what the principal said "You just seem like a disruptive student I'm just reminding you" the principal replied
A few minutes later
Corman walked out of the principal's office, closed the door and leaned his back against it he sighed Nurtus walked up with a fox "Hi Corman, this is my friend Clemson" Clemson looked at Corman and introduced himself "Hello Corman, nice to meet you my name is Clemson"
"Oh, hi Clemson, I'd love to talk to you, but class is about to start, so let's talk after class" Corman and Nurtus enter the physics classroom and a few minutes later the physics teacher is at the podium lecturing to the students and Corman and Nurtus are whispering below.
"What do you have for your birthday party and how are you going to set it up? (Corman)"
"The food for my birthday party is going to be handmade and for the decoration, it's going to be like a normal birthday party (Nurtus)"
Just then a teacher saw them whispering and he put his book down and coughed.
"Nurtus."
"Yes?"
"Grounded discharge."
"In production, in order to prevent an excessive accumulation of electric charge on a conductor, a wire is often used to connect the charged conductor to the earth for grounding and discharging."
"Corman, current, free charge."
"The directional movement of electric charge forms an electric current, in order to form an electric current, there must be a charge that can move freely, free charge, all conductors have free charge, for example, free electrons in metals, acids, bases, positive and negative ions in aqueous solutions of salts, are free charge."
"Good, it's a good thing you all know some basics or your parents would be very disappointed in you, you know?" The physics teacher broke the chalk with force and then brought out a new one.
"Wow, that's scary, I can't believe how mean the physics teacher is," Corman breathed in and out.
"Clemson stood us up again." Nurtus took a sip of water and wiped the sweat from his head.
"Are you hungry? Let's go get a burger," Corman said, putting his hand on Nurtus' shoulder.
"Yeah, well, we've got a long lunch break anyway, so let's go eat."
...............
"May I ask what you would like?" The waiter is opening the broken cash register
"Carte, it's me. How are you doing?" Nurtus smiles at him, Carte sighs, he goes backstage to get his toolbox, tries to open the register again, Carte finally opens the register and says.
"Do you still want this, Nurtus, you've had it so many times, don't you get tired of it?" Carte took a very large notebook and wrote down the customer's order
"I'm the wolf who never gets tired of eating... I never get tired of eating more."
"Oh, then don't blame me if you eat till you die" Carte looks at his watch he's about to leave work
"14.90 furry dollars" [1furry dollars = 4.81 USD(2022)]
"Ah, why is it so expensive? I don't have the money to afford this" Nurtus didn't have more money with him
"It's on me. I don't need it anyway" Corman takes the money out of his pocket and counts it
Nurtus didn't want him to pay for it, he said, "No, I can take care of it myself." Despite what he said, Corman paid.
"I don't care about the money, besides you're so hungry" Corman put his hand in his pocket
"You're too kind, and I can't let you cover those costs."
Nurtus always insists on their friends' interests first, especially new friends. Nurtus is always very careful to keep them, thanks to his adoptive father who gave Nurtus his decades of experience, so Nurtus is good to both new and old friends, Nurtus is definitely the friend most furries want.
Corman and Nurtus went to their seats outside and as they sat down they looked at themselves, at each other, and both began to blush (unseen).
"Do you want to eat now?" Corman gives a reluctant smile
"So what are we waiting for now silly little husky" Nurtus almost laughed and Corman laughed with him
Corman picked up a French fry "You can imagine this fry as a building, look at this building, how beautiful it is, how beautiful it is, how comfortable the color looks, how much do you think the architect should get?" Corman finished throwing the fries into his mouth
"I don't know, but let's play a game."
"A game?" Corman's tail went up
"It's just name the famous and important cities in this country and whoever says the most wins." Nurtus smiled softly, he felt he had a chance of winning.
"Let's play. First of all, Turnstown , Tercourt , Battaglia , Coaster , Telsmelt , Angania , Tebberville , St. Beirne , Hattelot, you know what?" Corman thinks Nurtus has no chance of winning, but
"It's so easy , Angano, New Schenley, Bacall, Enriviet, Gixminon, Tebenius, Domipennik, and finally Chartertown and Plympton"
"Oh, I lost. Nurtus is so good. I wish I was as good as you. I don't know any of these cities except the one we're in now." Corman took a few sips of his Coke.
"By the way you moved here, right? I want to know about your past life" Nurtus was curious about his past life
When Corman heard that, he fell silent, trying to remember what his life used to be like.
................................................
Corman used to live in a house that was neither close to the village nor to the city.
The house was considered isolated for a long time and Corman rarely passed through the village, but it didn't stop him from making friends. Corman made a lot of friends on his own, and they would always play together after school if they had time. They always had a good time, and sometimes they would play near the railroad tracks, usually playing with kites, toy cars, soccer, or playing catch, and thinking about it, Corman started to mope when he thought about it, and in the past he didn't want to mention that he had missed too much.
"What's wrong Corman, what's on your mind?" Nurtus looked at Corman's sad face and wondered what was on his mind.
"Nothing, just a bad memory" Corman said in a lost tone.
"I'm going to go buy some things, can you wait here for a while?"
Corman got up from the stool and went to the store. For him, his money couldn't change the many things he had missed in the past. In the past, he could only wait, wait, wait, for something that couldn't be fixed, once you broke it, it could never be a complete thing again.
Since 1993 Corman has known that the world is never equal, they can only think what is normal and what is not, there is never a furry world that is always yiff, there is only endless cruelty and darkness in any furry world
furries aren't born in love with each other he's been honed over a long period of time to have that experience and countless lives have been lost before that
The only way to go is into the darkness The real furry world is like this
That's why Corman never enjoys the luxury of life, but lives like an ordinary citizen, using ordinary things, household items, toys and so on, living as much as he can like an ordinary husky.
Corman comes back with a big bag of stuff and Nurtus is curious what he bought.
Corman opened the bag and inside was a bunch of drinks. "Let's play a game, the Mixed Drink Challenge."
Nurtus's tail wagged like crazy, "Well, yeah, how do we play?"
"First I pour in any number of drinks, then I ask the other person to guess what drink was poured, and whoever loses gets to wear a girl's costume."
"Close your eyes, Nurtus." Corman poured in the strawberry juice, then the energy drink, then the cocktail, and then he had a great idea. He took a bottle of soy sauce out of the bag, put in 200 ml. of soy sauce, and he put in 1 g of salt.
Done!
"Okay, take a few sips and guess what I poured?" Corman tapped the table and Nurtus looked at the large bottle of unknown liquid and was a little scared, but had to fight to keep from wearing a girl's costume.
After Nurtus drank the unidentified liquid, he looked confused as if he had drunk it and was at the end of his life, and he looked at Corman who was laughing.
"No, what did you put in it? Did you put something messy in it, hahaha" Nurtus laughed along with him
"What the hell did you put there ,you! ....... The first time I saw this unknown liquid, I thought it was very strange. After drinking it, I found that it was wrong, it was definitely a small bottle with soy sauce poured in a lot, and salt was put in it" They both laughed even louder
"I've never seen such a brazen guy I almost died here, you know!" Nurtus punched him lightly on the shoulder
By evening
"Why are you home so late, Corman?" Mrs. Millie was cleaning with the vacuum cleaner.
"I had a great time with my friend, he's better than my old friend" Corman was lying on the couch, he was too sleepy
"But Corman, don't forget your old friends for this... nothing in the world lasts forever." Mrs. Millie set the table.
Corman heard these words and began to mope again... many of his old friends were forgotten... but there was one old friend that he could never forget... and he really wished he could have helped that old friend then... but the past was the past... and Corman could only go to his room and lie in bed and wonder if tomorrow would be better.
