Today,.as always, I will meet him after school.

He just sat at his chair looking over his wallet,

I'm trying to be brave ,

I walk to him,

"Afternoon sir"

He won't answer.

"Pardon me sir, I want to ask who is the girl in your wallet?"

He look at me with and angry look. I stepped back.

"HOW DARE YOU ASK?" He yelled.

I look down and sit at my chair. Facing my table.

He walk to me and sigh.

"Sorry,"

"This girl is.."

"My girlfriend" he said.

"When she was little" he smiled.

I never saw him smiling before.

His dark eyes glisten by tears.

"So, she's still with you now?" I asked.

He looked at me with a sad expression.

"No" he said.

"She died."

"At 17."

"Lung cancer" he said.

"I'm sorry" I said.

"Yeah, me too" he said.

He stoke the picture of young girl with his index finger. His eyes tracing down her face and seems like he misses her so much.

"Okay, so.. Let's start" he said.

I pull a piece of paper and write down the question. The question is hard. AS ALWAYS.

-

I gave him a goodbye and walk out the door. Damn he's still looking at those pictures.

I can see a single tear comes out his eye. I wish I never see that.

I wish I never saw him smile.

Cause I know, something was gonna change.

---------------

Today I walk through the hall. Mr. Mercury pass me.

"Dusty" he said.

"Morning sir" I greeted. I try not to look into his eyes cause I'm embarrassed.

"I miss being I choir" I said.

"We missed you too" he said.

"Well, we're gonna have some choir get together are you gonna join?" He said.

"When is that sir?" I said.

"This afternoon" he smiled.

"Okay.. I will sir" I said.

I walk to my locket and opened it, wish mr. Depp allow me.

-

I walk to his office to ask for a permit.

"Mr. Depp" I knocked the door.

I can see he's sitting on his chair.

"Mr. Depp"

*knock* *knock*

I decided to open the door.

He's in his chair looking over a picture.

-

"Sorry" he looked at me.

His shirt is unbuttoned, oh God why he always open it?

He button his shirt up, and looked at me.

"What is it dusty?" He said, put a picture of a girl with cheerleaders uniform.

"Uhm, I'm asking for a permit, I'm going with a choir get together" I said.

"Okay" he said.

"Thanks" I smiled.

-

"Sir?" I turned around.

"Yep?" He said.

"Who is that girl?" I ask

"You asked before" he said.

"Well." I nod.

"Yeah, my gf" he said.

"She used to be a spoiled cheerleader" he giggled and wipe his tears.

"Can't believe she want to have a geek boyfriend like me" he smiled.

"Hmmm.." I sigh.

"So, meet me again tomorrow, double quiz" he said.

"Okay" I nod.

At least he let me join the choir.
