After we met up with Braedon, Aria departed to go to math. We walked to ELA in silence (though it was like a comfortable silence). Though… nevermind. We made it to ELA and I followed him to our spot in the back. We sat down and talked. Well, mainly he talked, and I listened.

“Today, we will be starting a discussion unit!” Kids groaned again as Mrs. Martin started explaining what we would be learning about during the unit. I tried to pay attention and listen, but I couldn’t. I just couldn't. I see her mouth moving, but no words came out. I see her pointing and writing things on the board, but I can’t read any of it.
