Next day in school Shawn was sitting quietly and staring at his desk. He didn't even hear Topanga come in.

She saw Shawn sitting really quietly

"Shawn you look terrible!" Topanga said. "What happened?" she asked. "I can't tell you." he said. He didn't notice that he was shaking, but Topanga did! She saw him going pale too. In her entire life she never saw Shawn Hunter cry!

"Shawn what's wrong?" Topanga asked.

He didn't answer, "Shawn"? Topanga said.

He still didn't answer, "Hello?" she said.

"Earth to Shawn!" Topanga said.

"Huh?" he finally said

"Did you say something Topanga?" Shawn asked.

"Shawn I can see that there is something wrong I can see it in your eyes!" Topanga said losing her patience

"Now tell me what's the matter?" she said.

His voice came out shaky, "F-fine" he said.

"But you can't tell anyone"
