Was cutting across campus to get to the Gate so they could open the school. It was the weekend before vacation? And walking up the driveway the voice of the guy in front of me was familiar. Benny! Rushing to get some cash (from Talisa, who I wish I’d seen), go home, get the car, and fight some ticket thing. Not in a good mood at all.
Last day of school, Thursday before break, after the talent show, I hung around. Working? Cleaning up? I don’t remember. But it was dark when I left, and as I walked by the diner, familiar face. It was Becca, and the excited wave and the huge smile made anything and everything that had gone badly that week just melt away. I guess when you have a puppy it’s like that everyday, but just awesome to have someone so visibly happy to see you. So I came in (I think I was ordering food anyway) and chatted with her and Eric and with a current senior who was with them.
