---Kiyel Russel point of view

I woke up to the sound of Allisen pounding on my door and yelling at me to come downstairs and get breakfast.

I slowly got up and walked to my door. I swung my door open and walked downstairs.

The bacon on the pan was sizzling and my food was already prepared on the table.

"So how are you feeling about the first day of 7th grade?" Emily asked as she flipped a pancake onto a plate.

"I don't know." I replied, grabbing my utensil.

"Your friend Deekin is still going to the same school as you, right?" she asked.

"Yeah." I replied, stuffing my pancake down my throat.

Allisen started scarfing down her food after Emily placed her plate in front of her, then Emily sat down and ate her breakfast.

After breakfast I walked to school, down the same depressing, damp sidewalk that I had always walked down.
