The Skeleton Haunts A House (2015) - Plot & Excerpts
I’d teach until three thirty, then spend an hour at my mother’s office, fortunately unoccupied for the day, to grade papers or meet with any students who came by. After that I’d head home in a leisurely fashion to pick up Madison and Sid to bring them back to McQuaid for the meeting at McHades Hall. Given the amount of food I’d had for lunch, I wasn’t worried about eating, but if I did get hungry I’d have plenty of time for a snack. Unfortunately, my plan didn’t allow for a student who came running up after I’d already locked Mom’s office and was on my way out. It was vitally important that we talk right away so he could explain why I shouldn’t lower his grade even though his weekly essay was going to be late. It took fifteen minutes to convince him that I disagreed. Then when I got to my car, I remembered I needed to stop at the gas station, where there was a line. With all that, it was already five thirty-five when I burst in the back door, calling out, “Sid, Madison, are you ready?”
