The Army Brat

Chapter 7

Tuesday
Damn I hate every day in the week. I woke up to a splitting headache. It feels like a hangover, crazy thing is I didn't even drink. After my shower I sat on my bed coffee in hand wondering what today would be like
What will I do if I see Chris

"Ignore him. I'm going to ignore him." I said to myself
*Chris*
"I'm sorry." He texted me
"Speak of the devil." I flip my phone over so I wouldn't be tempted to reply
"Ignore him" I repeated
I slowly got ready for school feeling like a zombie

"Wake up and smile" I said to myself while looking in the mirror

I arrived at school a little late and had to go the office.
"My grandma wanted me to assist her with something at home, I'm sorry for being late" I told the secretary
"It's okay darling, just sign this"
I took the pen, signed my name and the time I got in
"Have a good day"

Walking to class I saw to teachers whispering about me
I wanted to give them the finger so badly. They're like 50 years old and still gossip damn thats pathetic and what makes it worse they're gossiping about a teenager.
10 minutes through the class I see a woman walking in
Thinking it was just another teacher I brushed it off
I saw her whisper something in my teachers ear and he nodded
Then she started walking my way
I looked her up and down in confusion

'Please just leave me alone, I'm not in the mood' I thought to myself
" Miss Baker"
"Yes mam"
"Do you have a jacket or any type of cover up?"
" I'm sorry , I don't mean to be rude but who are you?" I asked very confused
" I'm principal Weather" she said with a smile
What is she smiling about?
"Okay and why do I need to cover up? I'm not cold" I said making the class laugh
I really don't get the joke this shit is ridiculous. I was wearing a white tank top and sweat pants.
"Your shirt isn't appropriate"
Has she lost her mind
"Are you serious? Jessica is wearing the same thing. Shit even Jason" I said with a humorous chuckle
"Young lady I will not tolerate this disrespect"
"No I will not tolerate this disrespect. You saw me and thought 'let's make an example out of the new girl. Let's pick on her. Let's body shame her. Because I have bigger breast I need to cover up , really? I'm taking a guess here and saying your a woman right , would you cover up mam?" I shouted clearly pissed off

I heard gasp from all over
People started crowding the door way

"Office now"
"Look I'm not in the mood so skip the lecture and give me the suspension slip, thanks" I said never breaking the staring competition we had going

Not knowing what else to do she left
I mean she just left
