Samantha was in the broadcast booth to check out the layout so she could hook a clock radio into the field sound system, when someone passing by noticed the door was unlocked. The door was directly opposite the window that looked onto the field, and she was under the counter beneath the window, checking out the amplifier.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

\u2013\u2013\u2013 # \u2013\u2013\u2013<\/p>\n

Knowing I was about to be exposed, I watched in horror as the door knob turned. I almost didn\u2019t hear the other voice my heart was beating so loudly. \u201cI wouldn\u2019t worry about it. Whoever\u2019s working in there has a key.\u201d<\/p>\n

The knob stopped. The door was still closed. I held my breath. A person in here on legitimate business would respond to what was going on. I lowered my voice as much as I could. \u201cHey, thanks for the concern. I\u2019ll be a while longer.\u201d I prayed they didn\u2019t hear the tremor in my voice or recognize it.<\/p>\n

The first voice said, \u201cSorry to disturb you.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cNo problem.\u201d I waited, counting the seconds. Finally I heard them moving off.<\/p>\n

Relief swept over me, and I slumped against the wall. I sat there for the longest time, waiting for the shakes to subside. I wondered if I was really cut out for this. If I was going to do this, I couldn\u2019t put it off. The game next Saturday was the last home game of the season, and the team wouldn\u2019t be in the playoffs. This would be my last chance.<\/p>\n

I kept thinking I needed a co-conspirator, someone to watch out for me. However, I was willing to take responsibility for my own actions, but I couldn\u2019t be responsible for getting someone else in trouble. \u2026 Well, maybe Ingrid Hoffman, but that was another matter entirely.<\/p>\n

Finally my shaking subsided enough that I was willing to get up. I was finished with this reconnaissance. I eased the door open a crack and looked out. When I didn\u2019t see anybody I opened it far enough that I could look around. I didn\u2019t hear anyone or see anyone. I slipped out and closed the door. Making sure one more time that no one could see me, I locked the door and pocketed the key.<\/p>\n

Then I heard someone coming up one of the tunnels. I moved to the opposite stairs and headed down to that tunnel. I managed to reach it and duck inside before the other person came out. I suddenly grasped the disadvantage of being a red-head and trying to be sneaky.<\/p>\n

All the way home I questioned my resolution to carry out this prank. I had expected it to be a rush, but all I had felt while almost being found out was fright. I wished desperately that I had someone I could talk to about it. If Brian were still alive \u2026 No, I wasn\u2019t going to go there. It had to be me and me alone \u2026 or did it?<\/p>\n

Mom was seeing a grief counselor, and it seemed to be working. They\u2019d offered me counseling too, but I had wanted to hurt then. Now I didn\u2019t. Maybe a counselor could tell me if pranks were my way of dealing with the hurt that was still there. I doubted they would condone the pranks, but maybe there was something else I should be doing.<\/p>\n

\u2013\u2013\u2013 # \u2013\u2013\u2013<\/p>\n

I was able to see my counselor at her office on Thursday. Olivia, a strikingly pretty, short brunet, appeared to be young, somewhere in her twenties I guessed. She wore a frilly white blouse and a black skirt short enough to have distracted a man as she sat with her legs crossed. I had other things on my mind. She listened to me whine about Brian\u2019s death. Then she asked me, \u201cSo what are you doing about it?\u201d<\/p>\n

I thought about her question for a moment. What was I doing about my grief? I didn\u2019t know. Maybe simply hoping it would fade away with time. \u201cAs far as I know I haven\u2019t done anything.\u201d<\/p>\n

She templed her fingers in front of her face, touching her lips with her finger tips. \u201cThe responses to loss differ for everyone because there is no such thing as a typical loss. Each individual grieves in their own way just as they live their own lives distinctly. We speak of five stages of grief, denial, anger, bargaining, depression and acceptance, but how we deal with each stage is intensely personal. Not everyone goes through them the same way nor do they necessarily go through all of them. There is no universal right way. From what you\u2019ve said to me, I\u2019d say you have worked your way through your version of denial and anger, but you seem to have skipped bargaining and gone directly to depression. There is nothing wrong with that. That\u2019s just your unique way of dealing with grief.\u201d<\/p>\n

I hesitated. It was time to get to the point. I wasn\u2019t sure I wanted to trust someone else with what I was preparing to do, but I was talking to her now to get this out of my system. Should I be plotting out these devious pranks? Would they do me any good in relieving my grief? I couldn\u2019t put it off; I had to tell her what I had in mind. I spilled everything, including nearly being caught in the booth.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd you want me to tell you if you\u2019re doing the right thing?\u201d She paused. \u201cYou realize I can\u2019t do that. Let me ask you this, do you believe you\u2019ll get some kind of satisfaction out of pulling of outrageous pranks and getting away with it?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t know,\u201d I admitted. \u201cRight now I resent the fact that Ashworth targeted me, and I want to get even.\u201d<\/p>\n

She frowned a little as if she were considering what I said. \u201cAs a general rule getting even is rarely effective. On the other hand, if you were doing it for fun, it might relieve some of your stress.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cOkay, let\u2019s say I\u2019m doing it for fun. What about that?\u201d I pressed for a commitment from her. Should I do it or not?<\/p>\n

She peered at me for a few seconds before answering. \u201cLook, I can\u2019t solve your problem for you. The best I can do is tell you what I think. You have to decide what to do.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cBut you said it might relieve my stress.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIt might.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cSo what would you do?\u201d I expected another question.<\/p>\n

She surprised me. Instead of answering with something about making my own decision, she answered my question. \u201cI\u2019d go for it \u2013 as long as nobody would get hurt.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cBut I want to hurt Ashworth. He hurt me.\u201d I could feel my anger rising.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo we\u2019re back to that. Will you really gain anything from hurting Principal Ashworth?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t know.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ll tell you what, go ahead with your prank and tell me next week how it felt.\u201d She walked to the door to let me out. \u201cI\u2019ll see you next Thursday.\u201d<\/p>\n

I didn\u2019t feel better as I walked out.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
