fictionalThe department apparently takes this all Very Seriously. They have called, are reporting the incident, are concerned about suicide, etc. etc.
They have also discovered that said student's contact number is in fact, her boyfriend's (the alleged kidnapper).
Student is still MIA and has not responded.
Possibility 1: I am a cynical, horrible excuse for a compassionate human being, and this person is actually in phenomenal amounts of trouble and/or dead.
Possibility 2: I am a cynical, horrible excuse for a compassionate human being, and this person has seriously unleashed a can of worms upon themselves that I don't think they were intending to.
I feel kind of bad over the whole thing.

This weekend I had that school-anxiety dream...you know the one, where you show up for a test that you haven't studied for, or something like that? Except this time - I was the teacher!! (oddly, it was at HCHS!)
I couldn't find my class, and when I did, I didn't know what to teach, and it was horrible.
Have I switched sides? I don't want to switch sides...
