Intro
The classroom chatter was unbearable. The laughter, the scraping of desks, even the teacher's voice calling for attention—it all felt so loud and overwhelming to Aubrey.
"Going to the nurse's office again?"
Someone muttered that, but she'd learned to tune it out by now.
Aubrey walked down the hallway and quietly slipped into the nurse's office. Inside was the familiar cot, her fluffy stuffed animal—Snowball. And there was Guest.
