Chapter 3

 A little before third period started, an announcement interrupted saying All students are to be in the gym for an assembly something like that, I wasn't listening. Everyone lined up the teacher said, grabbing her stuffs, including her reading glasses and this expensive pursed she carries around, maybe trying to make the other teachers jealous. Omg I love her clothings, One time Jean said she saw her shopping online for clothes during class. I guess I could say she definitely win the best teacher with style award.

The halls were packed, everyone moving 0 mile per hour awkwardly bumping into each other. I didn't see any of my friends, I kept hoping that the line will move faster, and I'll be next to my friends. we finally enter the gym, i didn't felt like so much people were pumping against me anymore. I immediately spotted my girls. I pumped into Summer Bravo, she rolled her eyes, once she realized it was me.

Heyy, sit here Sasha said, as she tapped on the sit between jean and Carly. Mrs. Stapleton the principle enter the stage, the gym became silent

He was wearing a suit he run his hand through his grey hair then he enter them in his pocket as he balance himself forward and backward. He stood there for a moment motionless.

"What is going on?"

I elbow Sasha, she elbowed me back and shaked her head confused. Then principal Stapleton signed and clear his throat...

Hi everyone his voice seem heavy... we are here for a moment of prayer.

For our dearly brother. An our hour ago, there a young men about most of you seniors age who gone through a terrible car accident... The atmosphere was quiet, everyone stare with wide sunken eyes. Carly was crying, I feel tears building up in my eyes.

Lets bow our heads for a moment of prayer! he continue.

As he began to pray, I felt a strong wind passing by like a shadow and quickly faded.

When he was finish, the kids in band lead us into a song, everyone participated, the gym was loud with sorrow in everyone's eyes. Then we were entertained with numerous performances from the band.

Once the assembly ended we returned to our classes. I felt myself pushing against people I've only seen through these halls, people I've never actually talked with, or even thought existed. I am walking fast, I see David, he is laughing and giving one of his friends a bro hug and the handshake thing. How is it he wasn't affected by all that we just heard. He acts like nothing happened. I found myself in a locked up stall, just sitting on the toilet. my buttocks hurts because the toilets has no leds. I could fill the tears coming strong, I am crying for someone I hardly know, it hurts thinking about it. I port my head against the wall and looked up the ceiling, the tears from my eyes are now falling in the side of my face.

Someone was standing outside my stall, the shoes looks like carly's

Nora bell? The voiced called

I didn't answer, I decide to walk out the stall. I head directly to the mirror, I splashed cold water on my face. As I rose up Carly was standing in front of me with a tissue on her hand.
