A Living Dead Love Story Series (2014)
A Living Dead Love Story Series
“Whether it’s the four or five people missing from each class to paint and glitter and hang stars in the gym, or the two or three more who simply skipped school to alter their dresses or get their hair done, or the lazy teachers handing out word searches and crossword puzzles to the kids unpopular or lame enough to actually come to class, the whole school has that lazy, do-nothing, care-about-nothing, day-before-summer feel.
Anticipation fills the halls, kids are abuzz, and even the teachers—at least, the ones the Zerkers haven’t turned into zombies, that is—are in a festive mood. I make it a habit as I enter each class to address each teacher. If their clothes are all buttoned properly, their eyes aren’t yellow, and they respond promptly with my name, I smile and say, “Oh, never mind.” So far, so good.
All except for Ms. Haskins, that is.
I walk into Art class prepared for the worst, but Mrs. Witherspoon is bright-eyed and the class is nearly deserted.
