It was noisy in the lunch room as always and the smell of todays lunch lingered in the halls, it was time to eat and ain't nobody was trying to eat last. As I sat down at my table all alone I watched news 12, the only thing ever on the big television hoisted up in the middle of the cafeteria. It was boring but still, I was interested, wondering what was happening around the world.
"Can I sit here? " Angel said with a smile on her face, I nodded absently, eyes glued to the screen as they talked about a shooting in Queens. She sat down and talked about her day so far, not really concerned about my interest. "Anyway I said that she sho-.... Oh my god! " Angel looked at the screen in horror, it was Cassy, they had found her body in a dumpster 3 miles from here. They talked about her being missing for months and that some old man looking for plastics had found her. "How could someone do that?" Someone said not far from us, we looked at each other knowing that Mr. Smith might have knew someone went in his closet and saw her, so he had to think fast and get rid of the body.
After lunch was a blur, I went through the rest of my day stuck in my head. I thought about what they had said about it might being her commiting suicide, I knew that once they label it as such there not gonna look into it any further. I saw Mr. Smiths face when two girls where taking about it, he looked relaxed, not worried, just normal, making me sick.
'Why would he do that? 'Angel thought, she was kind as far as she knew her goes, she never harmed anyone and was a grade A student. If Mr. Smith didn't do it he was still guilty for keeping her body in that awful closest. As she let her mind spiral a note was passed on her desk. It read 'Library after school, 5:24' Chris looked at her, his face full of concern and determination, just like her he wanted to know, he wanted to know who killed Cassy.
After school we raced to the library to get checked on to one of there computers, hoping to look up more information on Cassy's case. We stayed until the last second looking but all we found was the exact information that was said on the news "maybe they will update it?.. It was just aired today" Angel said trying to calm me down. "NO! " I screamed "we are gonna go back to that school tonight, if there's a body there's got to be some form of explanation on a paper or something in that hell hole! " With that it was decided, tonight we pack, to go to a place filled with dread in the dead of night, tonight were going back to school.
