Incoming call from LayLay School

"Hello Mr.Thomas, this is Dr. Davis, the principal here at Booker T High. I do apologize for taking you away from work but My'Laysia needs to be picked up immediately. If not, I will be forced to allow them to arrest her."

What do you mean arrest?!? I'm on the way Damn!

"Aye bruh come ride with me "I yelled to Flo hanging up the phone and rushing to the School.

"Damn nigga yo ugly ass high as hell nigga" I laughed looking over to him as we walked up the stairs .

"Mr. Thomas it's good to see you again," he said shaking my hand

"Dr.D why the formalities? You know we go way back" He laughed and gave me a hug before shutting the door and sitting down. I used to be an all-star basketball player and Dr.D was the coach. It was always LayLay and I since my moms left us when I was 15. We went to stay with my grandmother, but she hasn't really fuck with us so I had to take her to practices and games with me. Dr.D was understanding of my situation and went out of his way to include her and make sure she was straight while i was on the court until i met my girlfriend Nique at 16

"We do and that is why we wish that it was on better circumstances " He sighed " I do want to start by saying that you raised an amazing young lady. She has never been to my office and she is actually this years Valivictorian with the highest gpa and SAT score that his school has seen in the last 5 years. But today My'laysia got into a fight with tw other students and then proceeded to assault a teacher and an officer"

"Nahh not LayLay" I love my sister to death but she is a shy ass crybaby. She's only had a handful of fights in her life and I had to force her to fight and her ass cried to whle time.

He sighed and turned his desktop around to me and played a video of LayLay beating the dog piss out some lil girl. Then this big tall ass niggas came and started yelling in her face and smacked the shit out Lay

"Ayyo who is that, that hit my sister Doc?" Before he could anwser Laysia hit the dude in the balls and they started fighting. Laysia is little but she was doing good for her not being a fighter

He picked her up and slammed her on the ground before some girls started jumping in. An officer and some teachers finally came in and broke up the fight but Laysia kept swinging when they were taking her away

"Shit just blew my high" Flo mumbled by the door. I forgot this nigga was here

"The girl that the initial fight was with was taken to the hospital, She busted a teacher's lip, and gave the officer what appears to be a black eye forming"

"They literally came and fucked with her first Doc. Why is she in trouble?"

"Language Mr.Thomas! Ms. Thomas was provoked but she made the initial interaction physical. With the severity of the altercation and the damage caused by the people involved she should be expelled according to the guidelines. But with no priors and her academic success, I will suspend her for the rest of the school year which is about three months. She can not participate in any senior activities other than Graduation. That does include prom. "

"Doc you know that ain't right now come on. My sister has busted her ass for all of these years, bringing you school test scores up, volunteering with the sped kids, and a whole bunch of other shit and you telling me she can't go to prom. The things little ass girls dream about for years?"

"I do appologize Iziah but, allowing her to attend graduation is the bes that i could do. I've fought hard. You know i have. Its no secret that the Thomas kids are my favorite students, I really wish that there is more that i could do"
