The Teacher

7

"Felix...." I dragged out. I sat up and wiped my eyes.

"Shhhh... Go back to sleep." His soft voice spoke to me. I watched him take off his clothes and get in the bed. I know I'm not dreaming or seeing things. I turned on my phone. It read 5:23 am. He wrapped his arm around me but I snatched them off of me and sat up.

"Felix! What the hell? It's 5 in the morning!" I harshly whispered.

"Babe I was working..."

"No the fuck you weren't!" I yelled.

"You gon wake up the kids-"

"You know what? I'm done. Get your things and get the hell out."

"Baby I-"

"Baby my ass Felix... Do you think I'm retarded? You must think so. Who the fuck works at 5 in the damn morning? Huh? Right. Nobody works at 5 in the damn morning. You so damn slick.. I'm so done with your ass.. Get out!"

"Jewel come on now. " He took my hand and rubbed it.

"Baby, you know I love you. I'd never cheat on you. We've been married for 20 years. Do you really think I'll cheat on you?"

"I.... I guess not. " I softly lowered my voice.

"I love you baby... I really do. I would never cheat on you. I'd kill myself." He chuckled and brushed my hair behind my ear and pecked my lips.

"Tomorrow were going to have a day to ourselves. No kids no nothing. Just me and you." He kissed my forehead and wrapped his arms around my waist. I instantly fell asleep.

4 hours later

I woke up to the smell of food. I stretched and rolled out of the bed. I took a shower and brushed my teeth. I picked out a red sweater dress and black flats. With my hair I brushed it up into a high ponytail and added gold hoops and a gold bracelet. I went downstairs and saw a plate of food on the counter with a piece of paper next to it. I picked it up and it read:

Good morning sweat pea. I made up a lovely breakfast of your favorite: bacon and tofu eggs. I promise to be home on time. I Need to spend time with my wifey. I loooooooooove you baby cakes.

Love, Your Special Hubby.❤️❤️

I smiled to myself and folded up the note placing it in my purse. I ate my food and left the house. My phone rang. I looked at the caller ID. It read SaRay.

"Hello?"

"Mommy. " Uh Oh. Whenever she called me Mommy she either wanted something or she was in trouble.

"What SaRay"

"Um... I accidentally hit Ms. Peterson."

"WHAT?!" I screamed into the phone stepping on the brakes.

"Mommy.. it was on accident though."

"What happened?"

"Ms. Peterson is a racist bitch. She said all black people are animals and they deserve to be in a barn not at school. So that's when I said your people deserve to be in a grave after all the hurt and harm they caused us during slavey times. Then she had said something about us NIGGAS not obeying God. By that time Mommy, I was so mad so I took my fists and hit her in the face. "

I sighed. "First off SaRay don't cuss. That was racist but you ain't gotta call her a bitch."

"Well that's what she is. But anyway can you come pick me up.?"

"SaRay you just got there 30 minutes ago."

"I know Mommy"

"I'll be there in 20 minutes."

20 minutes later

I walked into the principals office and saw Felix, SaRay and Ms. Peterson sitting in chairs.

"Mrs. Jackson." Principal Juliana stood up and shook my hand. I posted a fake smile and sat down next to Felix. He smiled at me and I smiled back remembering the note he wrote. I leaned in close to his ear and spoke lightly. "Thank you for the breakfast babe. It was delicious" His smile grew bigger and I patted his man hood.

"So I'm sure you all know why SaRay is here."

"We know. " We said at the same time. I looked over at Ms. Peterson who was holding her face. Damn. Did my baby hit that hard?

"Because of that SaRay will be suspended for 2 weeks."

"Hol up. Suspended? " Felix said.

"Either that or expelled. We do not tolerate hitting teachers at Saint Martha."

"But she had a good reason to do it!" I added in.

"What was the reason?"

"Ms. Peterson being a racist dog!"

"Excuse you? I'm not the one that ate out of garage cans now did I?" Ms. Peterson yelled back. I stood up.

"Bitch don't make me come over there and beat your ass!"

"Go back to Africa elephant!" Aw hell naw! I jumped over SaRay and began to beat that bitches brains out. I heard yelling and screaming and cheers. I felt my self being dragged off that cracker.

"LET ME GO" I screamed and tried to snatch away from the person that was holding me. I saw people running around and the paramedics coming in and out of the building. My dress was torn and my hair was all over my head. I was missing a show and a earring. I touched my head and felt a knot. My head was throbbing and my tooth was hurting. I felt blood in my mouth. My eyes became heavy and I blacked out.
