Friday the 13th has always been a superstition people believed in. I never really did until this year. It was the last day of the school year and the first day of true panic world wide. School was cancelled without warning and no one knew that that would be the last day we ever saw each other in the same setting.

Use one-word hashtags (separated by commas) to describe your story. For example: Where did it originate? How does this object make you feel? How does this object relate to the pandemic?
