Making the Sky Blush, Chapter 2
WEDNESDAY
Karofsky wasn't at school the next day, and Wednesday I hoped would be the same. But it wasn't. I approached my locker in the morning to find my face Photoshopped onto a woman's body again. I turned, apprehensive of Karofsky being nearby. He wasn't. I peeled the poster off (thankfully they hadn't used rubber cement this time) and opened my locker.
