Can I See You Now?

I leaned against the bathroom wall, the ten minutes I had to wait was slugging by.

Frank still seemed suspicious.

He couldn't be, though. I mean, I hid myself well, didn't I?

I sat on the floor and got out my cellphone, sending a quick text to my mom.

Hey, mom. Something happened at school. I need to you pick me up.

I would feel terrible later for just abandoning Frank, but everyone would probably be sent home soon anyway.

I left the bathroom and quickly headed to my locker, grabbing my backpack and heading out the doors.

My cellphone vibrated and I pulled it out.

From: Mom

Okay, I'll be there in about twenty minutes. Try not to kill anyone else.

Wow, mom knew me so fucking well.

I shook my head and sat on the curb, waiting for my mom.
