Hemlock walked into the coffee shop carrying a folder stuffed with papers. She noticed the three people already in the coffee shop and heard as the protest group got louder. She went to a table in the corner of the shop and put her folder down. She then went and ordered a large coffee. When she got her coffee she carried it back to her table and sat down. She took a long drink of the coffee then set it down and opened her folder to start grading papers. 'Why did I promise my class that I would have these rough drafts graded by tomorrow? Now I have to grade all the papers for all my classes by tomorrow, since none of those kids can keep their mouths shut.' she thought as she started reading an especially terrible paper. 'I wish those protesters would shut up. If they were plants I could make them shut up or at least wither until they got the message.' she thought as she tried to concentrate on her work.
