Fairytales

Ugh.

' your homework for this week is to write a 2 page essay on your favourite fairy tale ' said Mr. Thomas.

Most of my class cheered and sighed in relief because this year we got assigned the worst English teacher in the whole of Toronto! ( that's what we think anyway )
He usually always assigns us MEGA hard homework.

I hate fairytales, ever since I was little I never believed that one day my prince would come and rescue me, I'm a lone wolf.

I don't need a man.

Then the bell for the start of lunch rang, I raced down to the cafeteria grabbed my sack lunch and ran outside to find somewhere quiet to sit. I poured the contents of my brown bag onto the wall where I was sitting, my sister had packed some pretty decent things. A bagel, some mini cookies and a carton of Apple juice.

I started to eat when I heard the familiar strut of heels coming towards me,
'Eating a sack lunch are we Remi?' Mavis taunted.

Mavis Monroe was the most popular girl in school she hated all things nerdy, emo and goth. Worst of all she was my sister.

She wasn't like Mandy my nice older sister, who packs me lunch every morning.
She lives off of cream cheese bagels and diet water, and she pretty much turned Mandy's room into a third closet.

Mavis grabbed my food and threw it to one of the jocks who looked at me like he felt soft for me, but then Mavis used her popular girl powers and she wiggled her fingers at him and as if by magic his feelings were gone and he hurled my lunch into a stream.

I just walked away.
They did it every week so I'm used to it. If I told a teacher ( which I would never do ) I would get bullied even more than I already do by Mavis and her cronies.

The bell rang agin.

So I ran back to class and took my seat in the dusty stage hall, drama was my least favourite subject.

"Now everyone, today we are going to be doing a small play about fairy tales!" Said ms. Mae enthusiastically
"I have decided your groups and what fairy tale you will be doing"
"Billy you are with maya and Juan, lanai you are with mei and lele, bobby you are with marcel and juniper, Margo you are with Lillian and Johnny, last of all Remi you are with raven and papaya." Said ms. Mae

My group was pretty decent.

" oh I almost forgot to give each group their fairy tale silly me"
" group one has Aladdin, group two has beauty and the beast, group three have little red riding good, group four has the three little pigs and group five you have Cinderella" said ms. Mae as she handed us each our scripts that we had to learn for next week.

Since drama class was only half an hour the bell rang for the end of the day and so I grabbed my backpack and walked into the hallway to let the huge crowd of people swallow me as they rushed out of school.
