The notebook on the bus
Lily and Max are riding the school bus home. Tucked under a seat in the back is a small, red notebook. Lily picks it up and opens the first page.
There's a name she doesn't know. An address. A phone number. Then the pages get personal — diary stuff, secrets, a photo taped in.
"Whose is this?" Max whispers. "And... are we even allowed to read it?"
Lily snaps the notebook shut. It suddenly feels like she walked into a stranger's bedroom without knocking.
The internet is exactly the same. Behind every little piece of information is a real person. And that person gets to choose who finds out what.
