The tranquil, shadowy darkness of the room consumed her, thrusting her in and out of consciousness and a deep, penetrating sleep. After an overwhelming day of noisy teens, angry adults, and coercive instruction, Abby Wilkes sunk into her bed, heavy, unable to keep her eyes open long enough to finish her algebra homework. A less stressful day of random napping couldn't keep her alert in math class. Abby hated math.

Spread out over the mattress, with homework papers surrounding her and the dreaded math textbook hugging her chest, it was clear no care was taken to prepare for bed

Spread out over the mattress, with homework papers surrounding her and the dreaded math textbook hugging her chest, it was clear no care was taken to prepare for bed. Abby passed out fully dressed with one leg hanging off the bed, sneaker on the dangler, the other left bare.With her head wedged between two, mismatched pillows, one wrong turn promised a lonely, late night asphyxiation.

Unable to resist her body's craving, Abby passed out with her mouth wide open, catching every fly that entered the room through the cracked window letting in the cool fall breeze. 

RING RING

RING RING. The phone bellowed, cutting the silence of the room. Abby popped up, the only noise that could raise her from the dead. The ringer was purposefully placed on low, but rang out like a bullhorn. Abby's first instinct was to silence it before it woke her parents.

Abby's parents were older than that of her friends. Their parents looked young and acted young. Her parents looked old and acted old. Abby's mother transitioned to old lady jeans five years ago, while her dad walked around proudly with gray in his beard. The old folks did not value new technology. They frequently referred to the days when there were no cell phones. Landline and payphones were enough to get by. Abby was sure her friend's appropriately aged guardians did not recall such antiquities.
