y/n in her baddie reputation era fr

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It was regular thursday, and I was sat in the hot, stuffy english literature classroom. The teacher was rambling on about something to do with Lady Macbeth and her battlements or something like that. I wasn't really listening, since it was so boring.

English had always been my favorite lesson, but since I moved schools, my opinion changed. I still love the subject, just not the lessons. I dread going to then every day. My teacher hates me for some reason. I don't understand why. I don't talk to anyone, I contribute, I listen, I get my work done to the limit, I always hand in my homework, what else could he want from me?

"Y/n, do you agree with what I just said?" He interrupted my thoughts with his question.

"Uh-" I stumbled across my words "Sorry, could you please repeat what you had said?"

"No." He glared at me "You should've been listening to me when I said it the first time."

"I was listening, I just didn't really hear what you said. Could you please repeat what you said so I can answer your question?" I asked politely, even though I wasn't actually listening earlier.

He took a big sigh and rolled his eyes before speaking again. "I said that Macbeth has the most power in his relationship with Lady Macbeth since he is a warrior and a man. Now Y/n, do you agree with that statement?"

"No." I said sternly.

"No?" He questioned and I nodded my head. "Well you don't have any evidence for your opinion, so-"

"Sir, I would appreciate it if you could let me elaborate on my opinion." I said, clearly annoyed. You can't ask someone for their opinion if you cant take their answer. "Lady Macbeth was the driving force behind Macbeth's actions. She was the one who convinced him to murder King Duncan and take the crown for himself. She was more ambitious than Macbeth and was willing to do whatever it takes to achieve her goals. She was also more ruthless than Macbeth and was able to push him to commit acts of violence that he might not have done on his own. If someone weak had told Macbeth to commit these acts of violence, he wouldn't have complied with it, but because it was Lady Macbeth, he did."

I finished my little speech and the class was silent. The teacher stared at me, lost for words, but upset.

"You interrupted me." He said.

"Because you rejected my opinion so quickly." I said back with a straight face.

"Your attitude is disgusting, go to the principals office."

I was schocked. I litterly didn't do anything wrong. I swear this man hates me.

"Why?" I stayed sat in my spot, with the same straight face. "You asked for my opinion and I gave it to you. It was neither disrespectful nor controversial." I used more formal words with him since I'm sure he thinks I'm an idiot.

"GO! NOW!" He yelled aggressively, pointing to the door.

"NO! THERE'S NO REASON FOR ME TO LEAVE, I DIDN'T DO ANYTHING WRONG!" I yelled back

"YOU HAVE NO RIGHT TO YELL AT ME WOMAN!"

Yeah, I can see why his wife left him a few months ago.

I was so angry at this point, but I tried to calm down. Raising my voice won't help with anything.

"And you have no right to make assumptions about me based on your own limited perspective." I said back. I wasn't trying to make a comeback, I was trying to prove one of my first points.
