Tick tock tick 🕐..
Yeah... Mrs Cortez was my CIT teacher.. She's quite old yet strong.
It's being a week since Carsley won the election, and I was enjoying school. Not that I liked school, but cuz my friends made a lot easier.
"M.A.T.I.L.D.A!'', Miss Cortez yelled
Huh!... I said trying to get myself.
'Could you please do me a favor and solve the program on the board'. She asked.
Uhm.. I said staring, damn I knew nothing.
'Getting up.. But I don't have an answer to that, besides I didn't put up my hands'. I said.Yes you know Matilda.
Uh Uh. I mean they all look like they know but me, I don't know the answer.Then everyone laughed.
So you telling me you weren't listening?
'Yeah a Lil'. I mutteredOkay I'll be seeing you in my office after this class.
What Mrs Cortez!Bell rings..
Sighs!..
"Mat" luke called.
Yeah blonde boy.Thought we were over that...
Then carsley smilled sheepishly..
What!...
Nothing go see Mrs Cortez he yelled
Then they all laughed..
Sly friends..We were organizing a school trip. It was Carsley first project..
Mat..How did seeing Mrs Cortez go? Cars asked.
Well she inspired me.. Poor oldie everything she said to me didn't stick.
Matt!!!
What!?
Whatever... I need your help girl.
The school trip is just Friday, we probably have just four days off.Yeah right, have you printed the registration form?
Yh I gave that to Adams already so I'll be expecting it tomorrow.'Alright, Uhm what else do you need?' I asked.
We'll talk tomorrow, let's see how it turns out.Good morning Mrs Cortez.
Looks like someone woke up on the right side of the bed.
Yeah actually left, rolled to the right. But, whatever it's right.
'What the hell's wrong with you?' Carsley yelled.
Nothing..Pretty much... I've been waiting..
'Here you go Cars, these are all the forms I printed out.'
Thanks love..
You welcome.So Mat I'm gonna need you to distribute this, can you?
Yes I can.
'Well parents are to sign up here and the form is to be collected on the day of the trip. Do you understand that Mat?'Just cuz I didn't answer Mrs Cortez question doesn't mean I'm dumb okay..
'You may never tell..' Luke whispered.
Shut up Luke! Adams yelled.I was surprised.. I mean not that I didn't know that he liked me. But, it came out too soon.
Carsley kept staring at Adams. I knew she was going to say something and finally she did.'OMG.. Adams when did you start playing body guard.?'
Luke was angry I could tell, but then he just smiled.
I had to say something to clear the air, I thought for a while,
'Adams that was rude of you.. Luke deserves an apology.' I said
"And What he said was pleasant to your ears right?" He replied giving me this funky face.What Luke said has nothing to do with you, if only you stopped meddling in my business, we all could have been happy, don't you think?
Mat, I was just supporting you okay?
Don't make me sound like the bad guy.'Exactly what I don't want, your support. Luke is my favorite person here okay and if you don't mind I'll love that you give him the Lil respect he deserves'.
"Mat.. It's Adams you're talking to".. Carsley said.
Okay he said as he walked away.
Mat you didn't have to do that.
Why, what do you want me to do, sit back and watch you being humiliated.
Uh Uh.. You're My friend and I won't take that from anyone.'And Adams isn't he your cutie?' Carsley asked.
Sm people need to learn how to respect other people views even if they're wrong.Mat he was supporting you, I mean he loves you.
Yet I didn't ask for that.
'That's being selfish Mat..' Cars said'Do you guys really think Luke is the least person here, we all have our worth and Luke is as important as Adams is.' I said
Whatever, I'm going to find Adams.
Alright.
'What you're not coming? Huh?' Carsley yelled
What do I care?.Luke help me with distributing these slips.
Sure and thank you.
For?
Standing up for me.
Anytime, Luke I said hugging him.Argh!!! Carsley screamed
And then we both laughed.
I'll see you around Cars.Adams!.. Wait up!
'What is it Cars..?, you here to tell me to apologize too?'
Oh no!.. I came here to apologize
You know how Mat can be sometimes not being appreciative is her role to play in our lives.'I really don't understand her Cars. sometimes I want to, but I just can't.'
Yh I get it, you're following me back right.
Yeah, do I have a choice?
No.. You don't.Luke I'm sorry,
Yh it cool, Glad to have you back.
'Mat say something' Carsley said.'We don't need him.' I said
Matt!
It's okay cars.. If you don't want me here I could just go.
'Nobody is leaving' Cars yelled."what is your problem Mat"?
'Well I guess I can't help telling the truth my bad'.Sigh..
Adams I want you here, don't worry about Mat.. Right Luke.
Yeah don't worry about Mat.Mat be nice Luke said pinching me.
Ouch.. Luke!!
Yeah!Sighs.
Lemme help with the slips.
Don't bother, Luke and I can handle it.
Right Luke?
Uhm we'll need some help you know Matilda.
Cars stared at me...!Go ahead help out besides I'm tired anyway, I can't help but stand some people's presence.
