 Jake nervously waited as his classmates started to present their projects. What they had to say interested Jake, but since he was missing his project he couldn't focus to what they were saying. Though it was Jake's lucky day as he had gotten picked to go last, with any more luck he might be able to stall until the bell could ring and they have to continue presentations on Monday. When he would hopefully remember to bring his project. As Jake waited every minute that ticked by on the clock was more dreadful than the last. It was coming down to the wire there where 3 more people in front of him and there was only 15 minutes left of the school day. As the second to last presenter stood up from his chair to discuss his project the bell finally rang. Jake let out a sigh of relief, now he wouldn't have to be humiliated in front of the class because he forgot his poster at home. Though as he was walking out of the door his teacher Mr. Gron called out in his low and rough voice for Jake to wait, he had something to discuss with him.
