Noah told us all about his adventure this morning. Zeke and his parents hadn't done anything too big, but there were a lot of little pranks that added up. The cookie prank was his undoing though. He went to the backyard to complain to Zeke and his parents, yet was held up by all his friends, teammates, and classmates.
Noah was soon lost to the crowd. Occasionally, he would glance my way, but I made sure to smile every time so he wouldn't worry. It wasn't too forced on my part. I hung out with Alisha, Julian, and Andy. Not just them either; I said a couple sentences to classmates I had recognized and even talked to Kaylee on my own.
Kaylee wasn't as prickly as she normally was. I think with her sister around, her antagonistic behavior was set on the lowest level.
