Teacher (Mr. Moreno): *claps hands together* Alright! You’re all probably wondering “Whose is this guy”? *smiles* Well I’m Mr. Moreno, your NEW teacher for the rest of the semester; comprendes? Mr. Olsen is on FMLA for now. Well, on another note, we are onto our new subject; poetry *turns around to write the word poetry on the white board, then claps his hands together & faces the class* I’d like for you all to get to know me better, so I will share some of my education background. Before I went to Stanford University, I also spent two terms at Oxford University in England, UK, researching British literature and poetry. At Stanford I earned a bachelor’s degree in literature. And that’s why I’m certain I’ll be a great English teacher for you all *smiles at everyone* Great. Now onto poetry. You see, poetry is not a turning loose of emotion, but an escape from emotion; it is not the expression of personality but an escape from personality. But, of course, only those who have personality and emotion know what it means to want to escape from these…

Zac: *looks at her with sad eyes*
30Please respect copyright.PENANALHKSyf1Eh2
Ashley stands up & gives him a hug. Zac holds her close to him. He misses holding her, & hearing her voice, and being with her. But he can’t keep repeating this cycle of theirs. As much as he loves her, they just can’t be together. Everything is too damaged. Zac lets go of her & looks right at her then turns around to leave. Ashley stands by her doorway & watches him walk away. Zac picks up his speed & doesn’t look back. He opens the Princeton doors & stands by the beautiful Fountain of Freedom looking up at it thoughtfully. He snaps out of his thoughts & walks towards his car feeling excited about his future…
