Details of the story outside of the chronological storyline are provided to the audience, often as a memory.

A flashback is an interruption in the plot to tell about something that has happened in the past, usually a memory, that can help the audience better understand a character or event. For example, if the main character is afraid of going to the hospital, the story may flashback to a time the character went to the hospital to say goodbye to his dying grandfather. The audience now understands that the character associates hospitals with death rather than wellness.

Answer:

All students at Elmwood Elementary School were relatively normal. Apart from one that is— A sixth grader by the name of Jackson Bean would constantly find himself in trouble. He'd act out during class and was a terrorizer to other students ever since Kindergarten. This made teachers and students alike wonder about his life at home, but none could extract such information from him. The first day of a new school year, all was normal, Jackson had been threatening an innocent classmate when he had noticed there was someone new. She was a nice person, polite and respectful to everyone she spoke to. Jackson had never seen someone who looked like her— he thought she was beautiful. When she introduced herself to him, ignoring what the others said about him, the boy couldn't find it in himself to call her names or slap her. Jackson instead made an offer to show her around, to which she accepted happily. An act in an effort to change, the other students and teacher knew not, but one thing was for certain: They were relieved the nice girl wouldn't have to go through what they had with him and maybe, just maybe, she could help him.

Superstition

The idea that Friday the 13th is an unlucky day is a common superstition

Yes

One superstition I have heard is that if a black cat crosses your path you will fall to bad-luck and will experience misfortune.

A superstition that I had was that if you broke a mirror you would be cursed for 7 years. This influenced me from a young age not to destroy any reflective surfaces as we had a lot of those in the house. I believed that my parents tried to influence me/ tell me at a young age was so that feared of one day falling into misfortune which luckily never happened. I started to finally not believe the superstition when I opened my locker and my mirror fell and was everywhere and weeks past and nothing bad happened.

Hoped this helped in some way,

Jon
