When Desiree heard what the correct answer was, she was so glad she hadn’t voiced either of her ideas. The lunar eclipse one would’ve been wrong, and the new moon one would’ve been repetitive. Either of which would’ve been lowkey embarrassing! She jotted down some notes on the new moon, taking a sip of her hot chocolate here and there, and listened to the next question.
Okay, so moon phases. Desiree liked this question a lot better because there was more than one right answer this time. She listened politely to her classmates’ answers while trying to come up with her own. Wait, Maria said there were four phases? Desiree blinked confusedly. She thought there was more than that! She sat quietly until something Brandon said jogged her memory. She tentatively raised her hand and said, “Does gibbous count as a moon phase? That happens when the moon is more than half visible, but not yet full. It can also be waxing or waning.”
Was that anywhere close to correct? Merlin, she hoped so!
