The Week of Finals: the unsolved mystery

chapter 2: Before school

I finally got to school. I had about ten minutes before the bell would ring, and my spanish final would begin. I packed all my stuff away in my locker, and found my buddies Drake and Jack. Drake said," hey, Jake! Are you ready for the test?" I answered," No. Is anyone." "True" he answered. "How about you Jack?" I said. Jack said," Of course! I was born ready!" We all laughed. Then the bell rang, and we all collected our stuff and headed toward the spanish room. On the way there, I tripped on someone's foot, and nearly fell. When I regained my balance, I looked to see who it was who had tripped me. It was Carmen. "Carmen!" I said. "Why do you always leave your feet out in the middle of the hallway?" "Oh, i'm so sorry! I just seem to always put my feet way out behind me when i am getting stuff out of my locker. It wont happen again!" She said. I responded," Ya, that's what you say every time. Keep this up, and people will start to think you do this on purpose." She just stared back at me in shock. Apparently it never occurred to her what other people would think about that. Drake, Jack, and I finally left her there to finish collecting her stuff and walked to the classroom.
