No-Good Class-Skipping Boy

Who: Sammy and Eben!
Where: MSHS
When: Last period

Turmoil roiled through Sammy like waves tossed and turned on the sea by a hurricane as he sat by himself on the side-lawn where he and the others had met for the system-setting-up meeting. Technically he should have been inside like everyone else in his last class, but he didn’t want to sit in there anymore. He also didn’t want to go home once the final bell rang, to be honest. He just wanted to…sit. And do nothing. Yes.

When he thought about it further, though, Sammy knew that he couldn’t just sit here forever, trying to take root in the yard. It wouldn’t fly. First off, doing so would mean that he left his Nana and Geo alone with Helen, and he wouldn’t be able to forgive himself for that; because what if something happened to them because of him doing so? No, he wouldn’t stay here for forever, he’d just stay here until he was calm and didn’t feel like crying anymore. Hopefully that would be long enough.

Gods…
