"The district superintendent got suspended? Must be some power politics again."
"Oh... Finish your toast."
"They rescued a cat from a building not so far from here. This city, I swear."
"A cat, alright? It'll get cold by the way."
"Accidents, Obituary, politics... Ah. Aren't elections coming up soon?"
"Abel!"
I snapped my head up and looked at Anna. She had her eyes narrowed, glaring at me. I quickly put the newspaper down and picked up the toast lathered with peanut butter and bit down on it.
"Pretty good," I said. "Thank you."
"Don't mention it," Anna said with a smile. The school uniform of Fairfax Academy looked quite familiar on her.
"Let's take the bike to class today," I said. "We have to carry a bunch of stuff, right?"
Anna and I both looked at the bags we had left near the table. A chart and a bit of a few papers alongside our usual bags.
There was a story to tell.
