FindingSalinger

It

had

been

raining

again

today,

so

Sonia

had

decided

to

forego

her

original

plan

to

walk

home

after

school.

On

a

nicer

day,

it

wouldn’t

have

been

too

bad.

Her

house

was

just

a

little

over

a

mile

away

from

the

school

where

she

had

just

started

her

seventh

year,

and

if

she

walked

fast,

she

could

cover

the

distance

in

less

than

twenty

minutes.

When

she

had

her

headphones

in

and

listened

to

music,

it

felt

like

the

time

and

distance

went

by

even

faster.

Lately,

she

had

been

trying

to

listen

to

her

older

brother

Tom’s

music

collection.

It

was

mostly

just

old

guys

with

guitars:

Bob

Dylan,

Eric

Clapton

and

Bruce

Springsteen.

Sonia

thought

it

was

alright;

nothing

special.

But

it

was

better

than

nothing.

It

was

better

than

nothing,

which

waactly

what

she

had

today.

Her

mp3

player

had

run

out

of

battery,

so

she

left

it

at

home

to

charge.

And

she

wasn’t

allowed

to

have

a

until

high

school,

so

she

couldn’t

keep

herself

occupied

by

playing

games

or

sending

text

messages

to

her

friends,

like

everyone

else

on

the

bus

was

doing.

It

was

pretty

unfair,

she

thought.

Everyone

else

got

to

have

a

phone

to

entertain

themselves,

and

she

just

had

to

sit

there,

bored,

wasting

her

time.

She

stared

out

the

window

at

the

grey

skies

and

grey

town,

and

thought

about

how

ugly

it

all

was.

Then

she

shifted

her

attention

to

the

spots

and

smudges

on

the

window,

inspecting

them

to

see

if
