Oh, I wanted so badly to be with my friends.I walked up to Mrs. Bartlett to change a group. She looked at me and knew what I wanted. She gently placed a hand on my shoulder. “I know what you want, Karina,” she said, “but your group needs you. Will you help them get a passing grade on this work?”“Yes.” I replied. I was surprised that she had seen something in me I hadn‟t seen.As I bravely walked to my group, I could hear the laughter from my friends. I sat down and we started research.
