Evelyn Hart sat in front of the computer the day before and, in the last second before the deadline, finally filled out all the volunteer forms for Halewick University and clicked submit..
Just as I finished filling it out, the homeroom teacher’s phone call came in.
“Evelyn Hart, why did you fill in Halewick University for your preference in the volunteer form? Mr. Scott had been instructing us to have you choose Cyndale Institute of Technology, and you yourself seemed to prefer Cyndale Institute of Technology, didn’t you?”
Respected Mr. Scott, as spoken by the homeroom teacher.
He was her uncle.
Evelyn’s slender fingers tightly gripped the phone, her face youthful, but her spoken voice was resolute.
“I grew up and could make my own decisions, teacher. Thank you for taking care of me for these three years. I hope you can keep this matter confidential.!!
