As mom parked, I stood outside the car, stuffing my notebook and pen into the backpack and slipping it to my shoulders swiftly.

IT WAS OFFICIALLY 7:45 AM!!!

My mom got out and held my hand tightly as we went into the building.

The floors were a title marble floor, with dark lockers on each wall.

It was very loud, with kids around my age scrambling everywhere, chatting a LOT.

OOH!!

Mom gazed at me anxiously. "Evelyn, stay safe. I'll be back at 4:00. I love you! God bless you."

As she turned to leave, I waved happily.

"Bye, mom! Love you!! God bless you!!"

Then I went to my ASSIGNED LOCKER!!! :)

But I noticed one thing.

There was a lock on it with numbers.

Why was I locked away from my locker?!?

Is that why they call it LOCKer?!?!

I spinned the dial thingy and tried to open it, but to no prevail?
