No Secrets Between Us

It's morning, and the narrator is about to leave for school. He's worried that he'll miss the train, but he's also worried that his mom will notice that he has a "lip tint" . He wants to know if his sister's older brother has a bad fortune, too. He also wants to find out if his dad is worried about his grades. The narrator doesn't believe horoscopes and zodiac signs, though, because they're "just to kill time" and "all fake anyway." He asks the teacher where he can find the documents he brought with him. The teacher tells him to be careful, since he might not be able to find his professor easily. He tells the narrator to be patient, since it'll be hard to find a place to stay for a month.
