The Opposite Of A Dream

What to do?

How am I going to tell Mrs Johnson my parents are dead? I can't go to that teacher-parents meeting.

I walked up to ma'am and said that my parents would not be able to attend.
"Why not Morgan, I need to speak with them, I'm worried about you" Mrs Johnson stated and looked at me with a sympathetic look. I told her I was okay but she said she still wanted to see them.

What to do, what to do? I decided to tell her that they were away. " can I meet with the person looking after you then?" As Mrs Johnson said this I shook my head "Why not?" She said that's when I burst out in tears and ran out the classroom.

Mrs Johnson called me in the next day after school. I did not feel like speaking to her. I felt embaresed from crying and running away the day before. I walked into her classroom. Gayle was sitting at the back of the class. Immidietly when he saw me he straightened up.

I know he knows I like him and so does his mom but, he does not have to keep dodging and acting strange it's not as if I stalk him. Okay maybe I do a little. I do get embarrassed in front of him though.

I was about to walk out the class when ma'am called me inside ......
