CHAPTER 4 DEADLINE
When she hears me yelling, my mom comes running.She attempts to help, but it appears my draft has disappeared forever.
My mom understands about deadlines.She helps me write a list of the things I need to do by Friday morning,when the copy is needed for the newspaper.I sleep with the list under my pillow as if that might help.I lie awake for hours, tossing and turning,feeling like that princess who couldn't sleep because of a pea under her mattress.
The next day at school, I can't concentrate.At lunch, I shut myself in the girls' bathroom and finally let it all out.I'm crying so hard I don't hear the gentle taps on the door at first.It's Kelly - and when I can finally talk again, I tell her everything.
"It's bad," she agrees. "You've lost the interview with Hana,you haven't finished writing the article about the school garden,and you haven't taken photos of anyone - right?"
"That pretty much sums it up," I admit.
"Maybe you should let me help you."
"But I don't deserve your help," I wail.
