As lunch ended I slumped over, trudging towards the principal's office to save Julia from what's his face. Her thirty plus texts told me she needed me to high-tail it ASAP to make an excuse for her to leave with me. I didn't know what he called her there for and frankly, I didn't have the stomach to ask.

Of course as I'm walking though, I hear snickers behind me, and after turning the corner near the office I slam right into someone.

???: Oh my gawd! I'm really sorry, are you alright?

WIWTS: It's my fault I was paying attention to what the kids around me were saying...

I opened my mouth to say something to her but (somehow) forgot that nothing would come out. I don't know if it was her crystal Auburn eyes that stopped me in my tracks, or her ironed down, straight orange hair. Maybe darker at the roots...? She had a depressing aura to her though. Coming back to my senses, I shook my hands in a "don't worry, I'm fine" manner. But she kept talking when I attempted slipping past her.

???: So is that a yes? Hahaha~, you could've just said so!

WIWTS: pfft...I wish.

I start to smile, and the girl just questionably peers towards my face.

???: What? I didn't say anything funny...

I shake my head trying to reassure her that I'm not particularly laughing at her...just what she said.

???: Then why are you smiling like that?You're not even laughing, you're just standing there smiling at me!!

She looks pouty, I think I made her mad hahaha.

???: Well if you're going to laugh at me, at least ask for my name first!

She seemed to be furious with me for no good reason, but strangely at the same time she looked almost jokingly mad...After around ten seconds of silence, she sighed of dejection.

???: FINE! I'm Jani! And you...?!

I don't know if she realizes how loud she really is...I might lose my hearing next.

Jani: Well??

Well what? Does she seriously expect me to say anything,even when everyone talking out loud about her yelling at a kid that can't speak, that needs a freakin translator to carry a conversation with someone that doesn't--- Unless...There's a slim chance that she knows sign language!!!

But just when I'm about to tell her my name I hear my name stretched down the hall.

Julia: TYLER!! I thought you told me you wanted to "meet your last teacher before lunch ended."

Oh yeah. I actually forgot all about picking Julia up haha...

MySL: Sorry I ran into this girl. Let's go.

Jani: Wait...You're THE Tyler?!?

She looked at me as if I'd just killed her dog. Preying through my soul, ripping out my organs. Tossing them aside as if they have been tainted with the Devil's blood. Sahe turns towards a group of kids looking bright red, and petrified.

Group: We tried to tell you!!! Are you alright, did he touch you?!?

Jani: I'm fine, I'm fine...I'll just have to shower right when I get home.
