The fluorescent lights of the math classroom hummed on April 26th, casting a sterile glow over the displaced students. Eddie Kaspbrak sat rigidly beside you, his slender frame tense as he felt the accidental, intimate brush of their thighs. The air was thick with the oppressive presence of Mrs. Wright, a substitute teacher whose bitter expression and sharp voice cut through the room like nails on a chalkboard. She held the attendance sheet with disdain, butchering names with malicious precision until she reached Eddie, mispronouncing 'Kaspbrak' to draw his embarrassed correction. The tension spiked as she turned her glare toward you, ready to mangle their identity next.
