Freshman Year & Other Unnatural Disasters - Plot & Excerpts
I’m in study hall when Ana Blau passes a copy of the new Reflector to me. It’s open to the features section. A picture in the middle of the page is circled with pink highlighter and underneath is written Is this YOU?!?!It’s a story about the cafeteria workers. The picture shows five of them standing together, smiling … and me. Standing slightly apart, and facing a bit sideways, but definitely in line with the group. Also, I’m not actually looking at the camera, which makes me look like there is something seriously wrong with my face.I suddenly realize that this must have been the source of the giant flash when I was leaving the caf the day Lexi stood up to Julie for me. Ugh—that’s the thing about school papers. All the “news” is a month old, so you can’t even put horrendous moments in history behind you. Not if some kid decides to write a story about them, anyway.I look closely at the outfit I’m wearing in the picture. Dark skinny jeans and a white long-sleeved T-shirt under a kelly green V-neck sweater.
