Where in the World is Willard Kraft Part 9
Sabrina slowly came into the school that morning. She definitely didn't want to be there but Hilda had insisted that she go. While Zelda was in jail, Hilda felt that she had some sort of obligation to act responsibly and part of that included sending Sabrina off to face life as the niece of an accused murderer.
"I can't believe they let her back in here!" Libby said to one of her cheerleader friends as Sabrina walked by her. "What if she snaps like her aunt did? We're all in terrible danger!"
"Haven't they ever heard of innocent until proven guilty?" Sabrina muttered as she stopped at her locker and several students standing nearby quickly backed away. She pulled out her books with a frown and started to class. As she walked down the hall, more students and most of the facility backed away. One teacher even dove into the library when he spotted her. Just then, she saw Harvey coming down the hall. His head was bowed and he was being careful not to look in her direction.
"Harvey!" she called as she ran over to him and then stopped in shock when he jumped back. "Harvey, what's wrong? Please tell me that you don't believe this! You know Aunt Zelda!Ê You know that she wouldn't hurt a fly!"
"Listen, Sabrina, I'm really sorry about this but my folks saw the report on your aunt yesterday and they're really upset. They don't want me to talk to you anymore. I have to go," he said as he hurried away leaving Sabrina with a shocked expression on her face.
"I can't believe this," Sabrina muttered as she walked into class fighting back the urge to cry. Her life as she knew it was over.
"Miss Spellman?" Ms. Quick said. She was standing at the front of the room with a frightened expression on her face and a bullet-proof jacket and helmet on. "You're excused from this class today. Please go away."
"This isn't happening," Sabrina muttered as she picked up her books and hurried out of the room. How was she supposed to handle an entire day of this?
