The Death

This was me in elementary school. I was in 4th grade when it happened. It was like any other day.
Little did I know that this day would be very much different than other days.
We were late to school and in a rush, early in the morning.
Hurry we"re late!
Okay I'm coming!
Bye! Be Safe!
I rushed into the building worried I was late.
Luckily my teacher let me slide being late.
Sorry I'm late Ms.
Its okay, just sit down.
Okay I will! Bye!
It was during math class when I noticed something wrong with my teacher .
As I ran past one of the underclassmen crying, I had a bad feeling, but dismissed it.
Let"s learn some math!
Has unfortunately passed away
The silence was deafening, as we tried to cope with the idea.
Out of nowhere she just stopped the lesson.
Hello kids, we're sorry, your third grade teacher.
You guys can do whatever for now.
I can't do this right now.
The information was hard to wrestle with. I wasn't extremely close to her, but it was tough to think of her as gone forever.
Then my heart dropped when 2 adults I had never seen entered the classroom.
