Summer Reading Essay


Still in progress...


Junior was walking down the long road that lead him to Reardan when he saw a girl standing on the side of the road. The girl was wearing a hoodie and jeans and she looked frightened with her arms crossed and her head down. Junior slowly approached the girl because he was worried about her although he was aware of the danger he could put himself in. The girl looked up at Junior and backed up a few feet. She was shaking and appeared to be scared or confused about what was happening. “What are you doing here?” said Junior.  The girl said nothing but just stared into his eyes. “Who are you?” asked Junior. “Why do you care?” said the girl in a quiet voice. “What are you doing standing on the side of the road? I need to get to school but I’m not leaving until you tell me what is going on?” said Junior.
