Ms. Lucas Class

In search to find my coat,

I noticed a mysterious figure along a blue chair.

"What's this?", I mumble concernedly.

Its top was round and had only the body on the object.

Scattering around, I didn't notice it was a human until it opened its eyes!

Frightened.

I jump back hurriedly and peered at the woman through my covered eyes.

She was dark brown with twists in her hair.

"What a beautiful wonder", I thought.

She glanced at me with ebony eyes.

She was…tired?

As I walked away, I couldn't help but wonder,

did she feel my stares?

A few words from the Author...

"Ms. Lucas Class", is a short mystery story that

seems like it describes an intense situation.

However, it was as simple as can be. During the

winter, I would use my teacher's class, Ms. Lucas, to store my jacket so that I wouldn't have to carry it around. I would either rest it on her blue picnic chair or on the table behind it and towards the end of the day, I would pick it up. On a particular day, I went to pick up my jacket from her class & thought something was on the chair, I didn't realize it was just one of her students because she had her sweater draped over her head. In the moment, I was curious and stared for a while, hence "I couldn't help but

wonder, did she feel my stares", stated at the end of the story. She woke up, I'm guessing because she

felt me looking, and I laughed and grabbed my jacket. I thought it was funny when I left her class, so later on I decided to make it into a story.
