I ended up buying a shirt and jeans, but that didn't even make a dent in my reputation, But today went by the same as yesterday. I got bullied and failed class, but I had my first tutoring session.
"Hey Charlotte'' I said
"Hi" She said
"Today we are working on reading, everyday we are going to read a chapter of this book every session" She said
"Okay..." I mumbled, We sat at a table and I examined her she looked a little nerdy with her glasses and her hair tied in a braid, She had handed me a book "It is called the adventures of titans'' She said
"It is big"
"Yep'' We sat there for twenty minutes reading the book, I looked like a idiot I couldn't read some of the small words
"Okay good job" She said trying to keep a straight face,
"Next let's work on some multiplication... and we will work your way up until pre-algebra" She said
"Now with multiplication..." She droned on and on forever "That's all for today" She said. We waved goodbye, I sighed, I felt so stupid that I couldn't do basic things. When I got back from school, I noticed everyone was outside on the patio "Ashley, we are cooking burgers!" Connor said excitedly
"Cool, I'm so excited to try one" I said happily
"But there are only three burgers, is one of not eating one" I asked
"You are not having one, and I need to talk to you Ashley" Mom said annoyed. "Okay"
"Go upstairs and we need to talk" She said, We both walked upstairs and she closed the door behind us.
"So your teacher emailed me, another student has to tutor you Why? I thought you were smart enough!"
"Because I grew up in an orphanage, I didn't have an education."
"Because, you are supposed to be smart"
"But I can't help it!"
"Well, then I better see you have straight A's by the end of the semester"
"WHAT!!!??? I CAN'T EVEN GET PASSED THE FIRST POP QUIZ!!!"
"That is it, no dinner tonight and you are going to stay in here!" She yelled and then she slammed the door. I started to cry.
"It's not fair!" I screamed and slammed my fist into the wall.
