A couple weeks later i was doing better at school. Dr Charles put me back on my anxiety medication. Me and Zach have gotten a lot closer. Dad: Kaylee come on you're gonna be late. I grabbed my phone and AirPods and ran downstairs. Dad wasn't down here so i guess he was already in the car. I went out to the car and got in. Dad: you sure take your time Kaylee: sorry Dad: right no trouble today please Kaylee: yeah yeah Dad: i mean it Kaylee. If i get a call from the school you're grounded Kaylee: what if it's for a good reason? He gave me an 'are you serious?' look. We arrived at school Dad: what are you doing after school?

There's gonna be meetings with your parents to discuss the next steps forward. Zach: but it's not my fault Miss Walker: I understand that things are more challenging for you than others so that's what the meeting will be about. It's not necessarily a negative thing it's just so we can put things in place to support you All: okay Miss Walker: go take a seat We walked back in the class Tessa: what was this about?
