Jakob had done his homework and eaten dinner with his father, before taking a shower and going to bed early. He didn't want to be late for his second day, as well.

He'd still woken up late, cursing as he saw the time on his phone. He scrambled to get ready, just barely remembering his gym uniform on top of all his books. He ran down the stairs, buttoning his shirt still, tie hanging loose around his neck. He slipped his shoes on, shouting a quick farewell, and raced out to the truck, getting in and driving to school. In his rush, he hadn't had time for his hair, so it hung around his face. He ran a hand through it, making it look at least somewhat decent.

When he reached the school, he glanced at the time again, before hurrying inside and to his first class of the day before he could be late again.
