Cook and I worked in silence for the rest of the hour I was in the kitchen. We were lost in our own thoughts; I was fuming in anger at the new headmaster. I really hated that guy (and yes I know I say it lots) but come on he was a pain in the ass!
“You do say that a lot,” A voice in my head said.
I jumped causing the food on the chopping board to spill on the floor.
“Leo!” Cook exclaimed. “Look what you’ve done! Now we have to replace the food”
He hated it when good food was wasted, it makes him quite angry.
“I didn’t mean to,” I mumbled.
I grabbed the broom from the pantry and started to sweep up the stuff.
I heard laughing in my head, “Sorry about that just practising”
I grumbled some curse words at her and finished cleaning the mess, once I was done I grabbed some food from the fridge and started to chop them up. I finished them and picked up the chopping board and made my way to the stove.
“LOOK BEHIND YOU!”
I tripped on my feet sending once again food all over the floor; my face hit the ground hard. I groaned.
“Leo again?” Cook said helping me off the floor.
I stumbled as dizziness took over me, Cool held onto me tight until it passed. The laughter in my head increased.
“Thanks,” I said as the dizziness went.
Cook raised an eyebrow, “What’s wrong with you today Leo? Your minds all over the place”
I didn’t say anything.
He sighed, “Come back tomorrow you’re in no condition to work”
And with that he went back to cooking, I left the kitchen and went into the hall. I swore loudly to myself cursing Ava.
“Now Leo you shouldn’t be talking like that,” A voice said behind me. “I should wash your mouth out with soap”
I turned around and saw Miss Nash looking at me with her hands on her hips; she was wearing a blue dress with flowers on it. Her cleaning stuff was beside her and her face had a disproving look on it. Miss Nash was one of the most nicest people (except Cook) around here, everyone loved her. Even the top dog. Her face had wrinkles on it but because she smiled a lot and her pale eyes never stopped twinkling, tho they weren’t now. If there was one thing she hated most of all that was swearing and bad language, and trust me when it came to washing your mouth out with soap she would do it. She did it to Red Dog once and he never swore around her again.
“Ah sorry?” I said, tho it was more of a question.
“You should be! Using bad language like that! My granddaddy used to use a belt on people when they swore. And coming from your mouth, well I never thought of you doing such a thing!” Miss Nash said quickly.
“Ops,” Ava said in an innocent tone.
My teeth tightened.
“Don’t you even think about giving me that look!” Miss Nash exclaimed.
“Hehe," Ava giggled.
I breathed deeply and looked at her, “Sorry Miss Nash I apologise for using such ghastly words, would you like help with your cleaning?”
With Miss Nash you had to use formal words when apologising, and she would forgive you, it always works tho people didn’t know that.
“Hmm I might try that thanks!” Ava laughed in my head; I knew she was enjoying this.
Miss Nash’s face lit up, “That’s alright but don’t be using those revolting words again, and yes I would like help cleaning the toilets”
And with that she walked past me, I grabbed her cleaning gear and inwardly groaned. The toilets were the worst place to go, most of the time I don’t go there. People call it the Shit House for a reason, because the toilets smelt like shit! The worst ones were the boy’s toilets; they had this contest every mouth about who could do the smelliest crap. There’s this boy called Tod Davidson who wins this contest every time, teachers have been known to drop dead at one sniff of his shit. And now I was making my way to in depending doom.
And that’s when Tod made his way out of the boy’s toilets when I thought it couldn’t get any worse. Tod looked at me and smiled, I gave him my best death glare and he quickly paled. When I was done with this I was going to have a word with Tod.
Miss Nash sighed, “Looks like we’ve got a huge job on our hands”
She went to me and grabbed two gas masks, literality, and handed one to me.
“Can’t I do something else?” I whined.
“No you shall not,” Miss Nash said while putting on the gas mask. “You offered to help clean so stop your whinging”
When she breathed her voice sounded like Darth Vader from Star Wars. I sighed and put the mask on, Ava’s laughter ringing in my head.
“‘Luke I am your father,’” She quoted.
Mumbling to myself Miss Nash and I made our way to the Shit House.
