   Summary

   “Alexander is dead.”  

   John's heart dropped out of his chest, and he swore he heard it shattering into a trillion tiny fragments on the floor. No. No. 

   “I’m sorry. I’m so, so sorry, John. There... there was a shooter. Strutted into the school with a gun. Alex’s class bolted, thought they could escape. Aaron said he heard a gunshot, and Alex shouted-and they didn’t see him again. John-are you ok?”
