a student passes the open door of a class during a break and sees one of the teachers sitting at her desk. there is a male student kneeling beside her and she has her left hand on his left shoulder as he writes something into the note book he holds open on the desk. the student passing by smiles to him self about the way the scene appears as he continues down the hall. he dosnt mention what he saw to any one else.
a few months later during a break between classes while he is walking down the hallway with two other students the teacher who was in the room with the other student is coming down the hall from the other way, she passes them, turns around behind them and puts her arms around the three of them saying "oh you are all my boys and you love me and don't believe what they might say about me." letting go of them she and they continue in opposite directions. then one of the other students who's mother is on the staff of the school says something to the other two about not letting that teacher get close to you when you are alone. the student who saw her in the class with the other student thinks this has something to do with what he saw in passing the class during the break a few months back and smiles, mostly to himself about what was said but dosnt say anything to the other two about what he saw.
a few weeks after that while alone and leaving the school during a break he finds a note book laying open on the floor of the hall near the locker room. standing over it he can't help but notice the book contains the names of students in that catholic junior and secondary high school. the names have notes beside them on the home and school life of each student, along with suggestions about using any problems they are having to recruit them into a life of various crimes ranging from prostitution to selling drugs and guns. he lifts and turns the open pages with the toe of his shoe and yes there his name can be seen with the others, and with information he couldn't think how they had gotten.
he walks from the hall to his locker and while he is standing in front of the open locker with his back to the rest of the room he can hear the door of the mud room open and a person passes through the locker room and in to the hall, immediately return from the hall, stop for a second and then continue on and out the mud room. he checks the hallway and the notebook is not there, then follows who ever came in and left and from the window of the mud room he can see the teacher who had her arm around the other student, the one who had given him and two other students a group hug. she is sitting in her car the note book from the hall clutched in her left hand that rests on the steering wheel, and she is looking back at him. he smiles to himself now that he knows more about what's going on in the school and its connection to this teacher but dosnt plan to mention it to any one yet.
a few days after that incident he notices people lurking in cars on his path during breaks between classes, they all sit behind the wheel in the drivers seat holding up a note book the same colour as one from the hallway, the same colour as the one the teacher held in her hand.
