Today’s things are: death, humor, stupid

Our school term was coming to an end, and Miss Teresa had announced she was leaving. There was a stunned silence around the room when she said those words. It felt like we were experiencing a death in our family, our classroom family.

But Miss Teresa didn’t appear to be sad in fact she was very upbeat. At one point she tried to crack a joke about our next teacher being fantastic and better than she was, but her attempt at humour fell on deaf ears.

Dango decided to make a speech about Miss Teresa but he was being stupid, and his efforts did little to lighten the load of our disappointment at seeing Miss Teresa go. It was a very subdued class that day.
