imagination.
Craig walk to school the next day with a slight limp. When he gets to school, he knows that the rest of the school now knows about Evonne. He hears the whispers that fill the hall; no one can believe that something like this could happen to someone at their school.
"Craig."
Craig turns around he sees Ashley standing behind him. Normally he would have taken note on what she was wearing and if she was happy but not today.
"Hey Ash."
"I saw the news."
Craig nods. There isn't really anything else to say. Everyone now knows why Craig was moody yesterday. But no one knows what to say. Everything seems wrong and slightly out of place. Spinner comes up behind Craig and pats him on the back.
"Craig, how are you doing?"
"Yeah, fine."
Of course, I'm not fine! What do you want me to say? Craig gives Spinner a weak smile as he turns to walk away. He knows that his friends mean well but right now, he doesn't want to hear any of it. He just wants Evonne back.
Craig sits down heavily and waits for Mr. Simpson to begin the day as he usually does. But Mr. Simpson is different today, he doesn't bounce into the room announcing they are about to blast off he walks in and sits down to take roll call. He seems almost normal today.
"Mr. Raditch has announced that we will be having an extended homeroom."
The class begins to whisper and speculate about this change in schedule.
"I assume most of you have hear about Miss. Mariz. Do any of you have anything to say or discuss?"
"I miss her."
All eyes turn toward Paige. Paige rarely shows the world that she cares for people.
"So do I. Mr. Simpson, why do things like this happen to people like Evonne?"
"That's just life, of-course what has happened is extreme but bad things more then often happen to the most undeserving people, Terri."
Then there is silence; no one knows what to say. Subconsciously they are all most concerned for Craig. They all hear a bang. They turn around to see Craig stand up and walk out of the classroom slamming the door behind him.
His footsteps can be heard fading away down the hallway. Manny, Emma, JT, Toby and Sean see him walk past. They exchange confused looks.
Mr. Simpson chases Craig out of the classroom.
"Craig!"
But Craig doesn't hear or he pretends that he can't. Craig keeps walking but he breaks into a run. Even though Mr. Simpson began running before him he still can't compete with Craig's stamina.
Craig slows down in the park puffing from running. He sits down under a tree. He doesn't care that it is in the middle of the day and people can easily see that he should be in class.
Craig leans his head against the tree and closes his eyes. He sees nothing and he feels nothing. And suddenly he wants nothing to do with Evonne. He pushes her to deepest, darkest corner of his mind and forces himself to forget her.
