THE SCHOOL TRIP Two weeks passed quickly.The school trip was finally approaching.By Thursday afternoon, the entire school seemed to be talking about nothing else.Students discussed what they were packing, who they would share tents with, and all the activities they were planning to do once they arrived at the campsite.Asher, however, had something else on his mind.
