But what if it's not in there? Unzip. It is… You know what? I should have six of them. And one, two, three, four, five, six. I am good. I should just walk away. But what if I counted incorrectly? That would be catastrophic! So, there they are: four sheets of homework, my pencil case, and lunch box. I close the trunk of the car and climb in. Wait! What if I didn’t pack my English homework?


The author's comments:

I am very neurotic as you can see through this piece. I am very stressed about being perfect and keeping track of things.
