'Ugh so boring don't want to be here.' I thought as the teacher droned on and on about the scientific method. I started to tap my pen to the rhythm to Avenged Sevenfold's "Unholy Confession's".
"Uh-um, Miss Boulder, would you kindly not tap your pen like that?" the teacher asked me.
"Um would you kindly stop being boring?" The class bursts out laughing, and I smile slightly to myself.
"Well then," he pushes his glasses back into place on his nose, "Would you like to teach the class?"
I sat there acting like I was thinking, "Oh jeez, I would but,um I don't have the degree that is needed." The class laughed again, "But ya know what how bout you go back to putting us to sleep and thanks."
The teacher face turned bright red," That's enough!" The classroom went silent and still, " Maxine, that is a detention after school, now be quiet." And he then he continued his lecture.
'Seriously,a fucking detention!' I thought to myself. Now normally I am used to being in trouble but being at a new school for less than a week and I am already getting detentions is well not very good. Its not like I wanted to move to this big city, I was perfectly fine with my friends at my old school. My Aunt wanted to see the "city lights" and was tired of a small town life,in which I was perfectly comfortable with. Its where mom is..and now I can't see her. If she was still alive, I wouldn't have to be here with nothing and no one. If people would of believed me she would still be alive.
'Oh honey she was just very sick'
Is what they would say. 'NO! She wasn't! I know my Mama. SOMEONE KILLED HER!" I would shout back. And they would laugh and whisper, she's insane like her mother. Whatever, I know she wasn't sick or insane or whatever people thought. I know that the man that would follow her and us when we were walking in town,was not right in the head or something. I know very well that he was not normal. I know very well that he killed my mom. But no one believes me and never will.
"Maxine?" I hear some girls voice.
"Yeah?" I look to see a red-headed girl about 5'2, dress in all pink and heels.
"The bell rang to go," she said
"Okay well I guess I gotta go to detention," I got up and gathered my stuff up.
"Do you know where to go?"
"Yeah I am guessing the library..."
"Yeah. Well...see you tomorrow.?"
"Yeah,sure, whatever." Then I headed off to the library, I wasn't really in the mood to make friends or better yet nor did I ever want to. I just wanted to get to the library I had stuff to do when I got home. I just hope I get home in time so I can get to the cemetery.
