The Waiting
Un.
A sixteen year old boy sits on a cafeteria table, waiting.
Waiting for what seems like a lifetime.
It's been an hour; most of the students that attend that very same school have already left, but the boy remains.
Not outside of the school, but back at their home; a woman and her dog are going out. They get in their car and drive off.
Everything seems normal as they pass by rundown apartments, broken homes, and cracked streets.
They arrive at the red light just before a school parking lot. As soon as the light to their left turns red and the light in front of them turns green; the woman presses down on the gas pedal.
They drive for about another two feet.
Then the woman screams and the dog howls.
That's the last anyone ever heard from them.
