Chapter 7
The classroom seemed to be incredibly quiet and calm when Erica entered the next morning. And guess why that is? Tommy isn’t here today. Long live the arrangement. No one knows why he’s absent——and no one CARES. 小 荷 作文网 www.zww.cn
Miss Brooke came into the classroom wanly. “UmmHummm…” She cleared her throat. “Erica, I’d like to have a word with you.” She had this weird look on her face as if she had just came back from the moon and was freaked out by a alien.
“What happened? Why is Miss Brooke getting all spooked up?” Erica thought.
“Take a seat now.” Miss Brooke’s voice sounded serious.
“I don’t know if you have heard this but Tommy varnished. I called his parents and they have no idea either. According to your words yesterday, I was thinking that you might have known any details……”
“Wait a min!” Erica interrupted. “You’re not suspecting me doing anything bad against Tommy, are you?” She blushed with anger.
“It’s hard not to think that way, since you cursed him dead yesterday.” The teacher’s voice was getting raspy.
“I didn’t curse him! Where did you get that from?” Erica explained.
“Was I the one making all the things up? Who was the one with ‘TOMMY U R SOOOOOOOO DEAD!!’?” Miss Brooke imitated loathsomely.
“I didn’t mean it, I was just mad! Any one would say that when she’s mad!” How could she ever be a little more understanding?
“Well girl, Tommy is gone and you’re the first suspect.”
“Maybe he just disappeared during his sleep like the other teenagers.” Erica objected
“HUH? What teenagers?” Erica forgot she was the only one who got the special newspaper.
“Nevermind. But give me a chance. I’ll figure it out and give you an answer by the end of this week, ok?”
“Ok, but you’d better start working on it. You don’t want to go in jail, do you?”
Erica went out of the room with a pale face, how the hell would she knew why Tommy disappeared?
