the ground. Jamie was on the ground wiping at his eyes, but Troy walked away.
Ethan turned in his seat, feeling disgusted. He hated seeing little kids get picked on. The sight of Jamie on the ground
crying was burned into his memory. He tried to think of something else.
He thought of the model car he was working on at home, a 1967 Corvette. He started building it over a week ago and
just finished putting it together last night. Tonight, as soon as he finished his homework, he could start painting the car. That
was his favorite part. He already had the perfect color of blue picked out.
He hurried off the bus, ran through his yard, and breezed through the kitchen with a quick hello to his mom. She was
making spaghetti, which smelled delicious. He ran up the stairs two at a time and rushed into his room.
“Surprise!” his brother Lucas said, throwing his arms into the air. “What are you doing in my room? I thought you were
sick!”
“I feel better!”
“What’s on your face? Are you bleeding?”
“No! I’m not bleeding.” Lucas wiped at his face. “It’s probably just paint. Look! Look what I did!” He pointed at the
desk in the corner of Ethan’s room.
