The First Day

Detention (Tw)

I walked in to Ms.Paulsons classroom and I was the only student in there so I was in for an interesting 1 hour. I went to go sit in the back of the classroom but Ms.Paulson said "come take this seat up by me I need to talk to you." I turned around huffing because I was already mad that I had to stay in detention fully knowing I was going to get yelled at for not being home and I would probably get punched. I sat down in the chair and we were just sitting in silence until she finally said something " Abby I noticed the bruise on your cheek when you walked into class this morning is everything okay at home?" FUCK WHAT WAS I SUPPOSED TO SAY if I told her I got hit at home then cps would get involved and my mom would actually kill me so I went with the bad kid response "I got in a fight with some kid she deserved it though so I don't feel bad"

Ms.Pauslon looked really shocked but what else was I suppose to say. If I told her my mom hit me i would actually get killed so that was the only response I had. Ms. Pauslon said " oh I didn't really expect you to be that kind of kid you seemed so nice" i just shrugged my shoulders but I forgot that I had cuts on my arm from the night before after my mom had hit me. I looked over at her really quick too see if she had seen them and just my luck she did but I was hoping she wouldn't say anything.

I had already asked Y/n about her bruise and then I realized she had cuts on her arm but I wasn't going to say anything that's a conversation for another day. Her detention was almost over i didn't realize because we had sat in silence for so long. I looked over at her she was doing homework I said "you can go now but don't be late tomorrow or you're going to have detention again" she looked up from her homework and said " will do Ms.Paulson see you tomorrow" and she walked out. So I packed up my stuff and went to go get in my car when I saw Abby on the phone and she looked agitated and scared at the same time.

I walked out of the classroom and as soon as I stepped outside I got a call from Isa's daycare saying that my parents had picked her up. It scared me because the last time she got picked up by them I had to take her to the hospital because they beat her up so bad and I was mad at the same time because since the last time I told her daycare not to let anyone pick her up unless it was me or my aunt they clearly didn't listen to my request. Then of course Ms.Paulson came over to me and said " are you okay you look really pale" I wasn't trying to be rude but I needed to get home before something bad happened to Isa so I said " yea i'm fine" and I walked past her and got in my car as fast as I could and drove out of the parking lot no even feeling bad for being rude to her.

I walked over to Abby and asked if she was okay she said " yea i'm fine" and she walked away and got in her car really fast and just drove away. All i could think of was that she really was mad at me for giving her detention. I got in my car and went home thinking about what I should do but the more I got thinking about it the more I realized the only thing I could do was call the school counselor. So when I got in the door that's what I did i'm not sure if Abby is going to be to happy about it but what other choice did I have.
