"You failed your English test again, I'm sorry August." Mr. David sighed as he scribbled a fat "F" onto my paper. "At this rate, you won't graduate.". I flopped back into my seat as the class laughed at me. It wasn't my fault I didn't speak English. "Mon Dieu(My God).." I mumbled as I slapped myself."Hey french girl! You got a baguette that I can shove up your ass?" teased Adam, the loser Jock. "Oh shut up you...uh..no." I yelled back."Hah! You still can't speak English Cupcake!" Adam grinned. The whole class was watching us now, pointing at me and calling me names. "Adam, you imbecile how many times, my name is AUGUST!" Adam laughed it off and walked out without even waiting for me as the bell rang. I held back angry tears as I walked to my locker, only to see fat massive words which I couldn't make out."Go..Back...To France?" I muttered as I read it out. I scrunched up the paper and ripped it into 2. I felt a tear pour down my cheek.
Hi. My name is August. I moved to America when I decided I needed a new start. My best friend backstabbed me and secretly dated my boyfriend for 3 WHOLE MONTHS, and my "friends" decided it was a very funny joke to post me crying about it in my room. I remember the last thing I did before leaving was give them a hard slap in the face. Honestly, I wished I slapped them so hard that their teeth came out. But here I am, alone in this massive country, and not being able to get food from the cafeteria because I can't pronounce the food correctly.
