One. Two. Three. Four. Five. Six. Seven. Eight. Nine. Ten. Perfect. Ten pencils in my bag. Good, they are all there. Pens? One. Two. Three. Four. Five. Six. Seven. Eight. Nine. T-.......No! Nine pens. Nine. Not ten. Nine. I look frantically. Oh god. Where is ten? I need ten. I stare at the desk. Number ten? Where are you? I look to my neighbor. I spot a lonely pen on the cold desk, being completly ignored. The pen called drastically to its owner who failed to notice. I heard it call. It was alone and got no attention. My NINE pens got along perfectly okay. They keep each other company and got tons of attention. Perhaps I could make him happy? I slowly reach my hand over and snatch it up. I rubbed it clean and place it in my bag. One. Two. Three. Four. Five. Six. Seven. Eight. Nine. Ten.......Perfect......
