"Kenny I want a divorce" my wife said to me as she continued to pack her bags. I don't know what I did, what's going on, or why. She just suddenly said the D word, I thought she was happy, after all she did agree to marry me 3 years ago and we never once fought!
She stopped packing and turned to me, "It's just your students. The female ones. I don't like how they look at you and touch you and talk to you, then the male ones treat you like a friend...it's just like your not even a teacher!"
I couldn't figure out what was so bad....
"So....your divorcing me because of my students?!"
"Yes Kenneth, pick right now. Me or those kids!"
It didn't take me long to think, I know what's important.
"Sorry Cathy, but I choose my students. They need me. Before, they were failing at everything but the bad stuff. But now my class is number one! We are an advanced class now and still going higher! If you can't support me, then please leave." And with that, Catherine grabbed her bags and stormed out of the house.
".....ARGH! DAMMIT!" I shouted, throwing a vase and breaking it against the wall.
Why? Why did she find it so bad that I spend time with my students and that they see me as a friend? Isn't that what a teacher is supposed to be? A mentor, a friend, a helper, a hero. Well what's Spiderman without Mary Jane? What's Batman without Robin, Terry Miguiness, Batgirl, Alfred, and Catwoman? What's Superman without Louise?
I basically just lost the heroinne to my hero.
I decided I needed some fresh air so I went for a walk down to the local pub Monaki, my good friend Sam works there and he has worlds of experience! Upon walking into the bar I saw Sam talking to a sulking black man,it seems I'm not the only one with woman troubles, I decided to be a little sneaky and listen in on their conversation.
Oh man! I feel so bad ass right now! This is better than the time I didn't wear dress shoes to work and I wore slides instead! I felt so rebellious!
"And she didn't even bother to think I was tied against my will!....well I kinda was into it, but that's not the point! The point is she has been on my case for a while now." The man said, waving his hands wildly, sounds like he got caught doing the dirty....oh my.
"I guess your stuck in the dust cause you did wrong!," Sam concluded while putting away the beer mug, "Well....can't help you there Teri, anyways your hour is up. Better go on before your friend decides they need another hour, then you'll NEVER leave!" Sam practically forced the man out at gun point! I guess he's been here for a while, anywho after the guy left I decided to talk to Sam.
"Hey, how are your virgin drinks today Sammy?"
"Best I ever made! So how's the married life?" He asked while preparing my daiquiri. I can't really hold my liquor all that well.
"Well...I'm getting divorced, Catherine says my students don't see me as an authoritative figure nor do they actually listen to me like one. She also thinks I give all my attention to them, basically it was quit teaching or divorce my wife. I still don't get what's so bad about having a nice relationship with my students but I, pardon my language, chose to divorce the bitch! Oh do I feel like a bad ass! Catherine never let me swear!"
Sam laughed, "well don't go overboard Joe Cool. Wouldn't want the cops to catch wind of your anarchy!"
"Oh my! I could get in trouble?!" I abruptly hid under the table in fear the place would get stormed more than deathstar stormies! Heheh...storm trooper joke, Starwars.
"Heheh, calm down I'm joking!" He laughed even more, "atleast you did what you thought right. I always knew that woman was loco with her broco, insane in the membraine, to much medicinal herb smoke in her head!"
".....Too soon Krillin, too soon."
"Ohhhh...You know it hurts when he uses nerd jokes."
Aside from drowning my daiquiri in tears and getting consolled by good ol' Sam, I kind of enjoyed myself. I finaly decided to leave the Monaki since I could tell Sam wanted to leave. Upon arriving home I saw the lights still on, Cathy! I thought, but it turns out she just forgot to turn off the light.
"This is going to be a lllooonnnggg night..." I sighed padding up to my room for a night of restless sleep.
