Hope had heard there was playground. She didn't believe it though. She knew she was young, but she hadn't played at the playground I a couple years if not more. So she knew she had to play. It was only the first day to school so she knew wasn't missing anything yet and she still was set on trying to get to know people around her and get to know her surroundings as well.

She saw the swings and immediately got excited. She loved to swing! she liked to see how high she could go without scaring herself or falling off. She use to go so high she would make the poles tilt to one side. She saw a few students there. She didn't see an open swing so she figured maybe she would try the slide.

She didn't want to seem rude so she gave a smile and a wave to the other students. She noticed that one was Noelle's friend Rachel, who she had met briefly. She smiled, "Hey Rachel." She didn't want to interrupt her though so she waved and kept walking until she got to the slide. She climbed the ladder and down she went on the other side. It was fun, but she liked more adventure and thrills now. She was 11.

She walked over to the side and sat in the dirt. She started to write in the sand. Hope and Spencer. She wondered what he was doing right now. And if he'd gone to see the nurse yet. He needed to. He was sick.
