The walls are all painted a soft yellow, and the light brown color on the couches make the room pop. "No," he says, looking at me with a weird expression on his face. "Oh, the music?

As soon as I finished my Do Now, I heard someone on the intercom, “In one moment we will start an intruder drill. I will come back on the intercom shortly.”.

    The journey started February 3, 2014. I was getting on the school bus like any regular day when I received a text from my mom like usual. I expected a casual ‘how was school?’ or ‘Love you, hope you had a great day.’ But it was far from that. My little sister Kennedy had not been feeling well, a little under the weather.
