"Hey, do you have any of that stuff left from yesterday? If you do, can you hook me up with one?"

"I've only got two small packs left. If you want more, you'll need to buy them yourself."

Fiona's eyes couldn't help but drift toward the items they were holding.

Noticing her interest, the boy sitting next to her grinned and said, "Fiona, want a pack too? It's great for staying sharp!"

He waved the small packet wrapped in paper, containing some white powder, with a smug expression.

Fiona frowned, clearly puzzled. "What is this stuff?"

"You don't know? It's the latest craze. It's sweet, and once you try it, you'll crave more. Gives you a real boost."
