Connor woke up and rolled over to look at the clock. "6:36 a.m" he said.
Kennedi knocked on his door before shouting out "Connor, wake up! It's time for school!"
"Not now, Ken, tell mom I'm going in to school late."
"Okay Con," she replied, sighing a little. Kennedi was used to going to school every morning with Connor, singing along to their favorite songs on the way there.
He got up and got dressed, throwing on a pair of jean shorts and a long sleeve flannel. He pulled up one sleeve and threw on a pair of shoes moments before grabbing his backpack and walking out the door.
"Do you want a ride?" his mom asked, looking at him,
"No, I'm gonna walk with Emily today."
"Oh, alright, love you honey."
"Love you too, mom."
He sat on his doorstep until he was sure his mom wasn't around the block anymore and then got up and started walking.
