School was over and I felt quite tired. I sat at the very 21 of the crowded bus because of my anxiety to get home. Sitting there makes me 22 out like a shiny coin in a pile of dull pennies.
Janie, the 23_ , tries to break the uncomfortable atmosphere by striking the match of _ 24 .
I tried to mind my manners and 25 listen, but usually I am too busy thinking about my day. On this day, 26 , her conversation was worth listening to.
“My father’s sick,” she said to no one in 27 , I could see the anxiety and fear in her eyes. “What’s wrong with him?” I asked.
