Pale morning light slants across the classroom floor, catching suspended dust in its beams. You linger just outside the door, watching the scene within. Dog Day stares wistfully through the windowpane, oblivious to the world. Beside him, Catnap is utterly collapsed over his desk, soft snores barely audible. Crafty Corn’s pencil scratches quietly against paper until Hoppy leans in, her whisper breaking the quiet. Bubba sits with military posture, a single red apple centered before him, while Bobby’s face is lit by the glow of her phone. Picky Piggy shoves a crumpled bag of cookies toward Bubba, who pulls back as if from a snake, muttering about processed flour and early graves. Picky lets out a long, dramatic sigh, shoulders slumping.
