Announcement

My alarm clock was blaring loudly..... I could only see the number 6..... IT WAS 06:53 ALREADY?! I shook myself out of bed and went down the stairs as fast as I could.

"Good morning Cylian" my mom greeted, as I was preparing breakfast. "Isn't it the last day of fifth grade?" she asked. "oh uh, yeah." I had forgotten about this, I would very much miss our teacher, our classroom and our lime colored armchairs.

I started walking to school, which was just two blocks away from here..... I met up with Lilam on the school gate. "You seem a bit glum today" he said anxiously. "Yea, I'll be spending the rest of the summer break at home, just like last year". I didn't like spending my summer vacation here, it would feel like an oven during the summer here in Arizona. We don't even use the aircon that often because it sometimes gets broken due to the heat. 

It was then that I realized we were already in the classroom, sitting down on the armchair.  I daydreamed about having the best summer vacations ever. Going to a waterpark, Going to a fancy resort.....


Teacher Jean came into the room, looking quite disappointed. "Stay in your seats, I have an announcement," she looked at all of our curious faces "Well then" she continued "We are getting a free trip to space this summer break" there came a sudden wave of excitement and the classroom started rumbling with noise. There were shouts, and there were whispers, and there was talking, and there was a mad teacher in front of us.
"Do all of you want to go that badly?" she boomed. The class went silent as they realized the raging teacher in front of them. "Well then, there will be four people lucky enough," she went quiet for a moment and then continued "To be chosen for this years field trip!"

Silence filled the room, later whispers were heard, until it turned into talking. "That would suck so badly!" Lilam said. "Yeah, and I bet we wouldn't even get chosen" I replied.
This announcement just made me more glum than ever, it would mean one of us could get chosen, and the other wouldn't, or worse, none of us would get chosen.

I was so eager to get chosen, that I had a hard time sleeping tonight...
