862 Words4 Pages

It was Kyle’s first day at St. Joseph High School and he was more than excited. He was dressed in his best shirt and pants, with his cross around his neck, ready to make a great first impression. After a long move from Wyoming, he was looking forward to settling in and meeting new friends. Kyle quickly noticed that school in Atlanta was much different from his rural hometown of Sheridan.

He walked out the door, leaving the party behind him. Kyle had learned his lesson this night; no matter how people may seem, everyone can do bad things and make wrong decisions. Not everyone was truly as they seemed. As time went on Kyle has trouble trusting kids at the school, even those who weren 't at the party.
