She spun back around on her toes at the mention that Professor Baird had wanted to hold on to the doll. She gently squeezed the doll in her arms. This had nothing to do with a lack of respect, in her opinion. This had everything to do with the fact that she already felt a strange emotional attachment to the doll. Someone gifted it to her. It felt funny to just give it away. Was it perhaps the more sensible choice? Sure. But the Professor mentioned it was inert. So, it had to be safe to keep. Right?
With Professor Baird’s nod, Kaitlyn stretched out her hand to the door handle for the Hospital Wing. But, there was something funny. Something wasn’t right. Professor Baird’s eyes never met hers. That could be explained away. But … his lips moved, like he was trying to talk. Yet, no words came out. And …. wait, was that a piece of thread hanging out of his mouth?
“P-professor?” Kaitlyn squeaked. When she received no response, she pushed her back against the wall, staring at him. This was definitely not right. She had to find someone to talk to! In a mad dash, she spun on her toes again, threw open the door, and dashed out of the Hospital Wing.Word Count:
