By the time Eric got to school, he didn't feel quite so good. He felt a little bit frightened. He was sure his plans were right. His mother might be hurt at first, though. It was all a little confusing. He was just too tired to think about it. He had to do something.
He saw Keith in the hall. "Hey, Keith!" he called.
Keith turned around and looked at him. "What's up, Eric?" Keith could see that Eric wasn't feeling any better.
"Oh, nothing much," Eric said. "I have a couple of things I want you to have." He pulled the stuff for Keith out of his book bag.
