But the boy doesn\u2019t show up the next day, and only his grandma comes, saying he is sick. The unconvinced teacher pays a surprise visit later, only to discover that the boy\u2019s life is far more troubled than he thought. Mr. Morgan\u2019s first day as a new History teacher started with anticipation. He entered the grade 7 classroom, ready to impress with his lecture on the Great Depression and World War II, when the door suddenly creaked open a few minutes after the lesson had started. A hush fell over the class as everyone turned to see who was interrupting their lesson. A boy walked in with his eyes fixed on the floor and took his seat without uttering a word or looking up at the teacher. \u201cGood morning, young man,\u201d said Mr. Morgan, his voice stern. \u201cIt\u2019s 9:15, and you\u2019re 20 minutes late for class. Do you have a good reason?\u201d But the boy just sat without responding. \u201cCould you please stand up and introduce yourself?\u201d Mr. Morgan added. \u201cI\u2019m Archie,\u201d replied the boy as he rose and looked up, rubbing his tired eyes. Archie looked very untidy and dizzy, as though he hadn\u2019t slept a wink the previous night. \u201cNice to meet you, Archie. I\u2019m your new History teacher. You\u2019re late for class.<\/p>\n<p>Do you mind telling me why? You just walked in without excusing yourself, and I won\u2019t entertain such behavior.\u201d \u201cGood morning, young man,\u201d said Mr. Morgan, his voice stern. \u201cIt\u2019s 9:15, and you\u2019re 20 minutes late for class.
