The Girl Who Left Her Sock on the Floor by Deborah Eisenberg

This story went in a completely different direction than I thought it was going to. It was written by an American writer, so culturally, it's present day.

Our class read the beginning part of the story in class and had to respond with what we thought was going to happen in the end. I said that Francie was going to get called to the office and be accused with sleeping with her teacher, but it ended up that her mother died. This girl was very torn up and lost inside and needed some help that no one could give. The only person that made her feel a little better was the woman on the bus.
