***Next day at school*** 

I walk up to Britney and Xavier at lunch break. Xavier says "Oh look hoodie girl is back!!" Laughter comes from everyone, except me. I walk up to Xavier and swing a punch, I hit him right in the jaw. As he lies on the ground, I kneel down and whisper to him "and more fierce than ever" to conclude his sentence earlier. I now get up and walk over to Britney, her hair perfect and nails polished. She says "And what is little hoodie girl Harper going to do to me?" I respond with "get revenge" I don't do anything after that because by now the teachers and everybody in the entire cafeteria is looking at me like I am going to kill them all. 

River comes up beside me, "Harper, we need to go." I stand there looking at the mess I just created. "Harper, c'mon now!!!" I put my hood back on over my dark brown messy, ragged hair. I turn around and walk out like nothing ever happened. 

River takes me to the same stall in the girls bathroom we were in yesterday. "Harper, what was that all about?!" *sobbing* "I don't know, I was mad. What else was I supposed to do?" "pretend nothing ever happened." The door opens and I hear high heels clicking on the floor of the bathroom. River and I go silent. "Harper? Come on out sweety, it's okay, it's just me, Mrs. Roslyn" Mrs. Roslyn was the principal.

River looks at me, I look at her. Our eyes go wide and mouths open slightly, I mouth what do we do? River replies back with I don't know I decide on my own that I am going to own up for this, I am going to come out and tell Mrs. Roslyn what I have done and why. 

I walk out of the stall and straight pass Mrs. Roslyn. I keep going all the way to the principals office. I sit down at her desk and wait. Planning what I am going to say and do in my head. 

Tell her the truth? lie? No not lie, I'm not a bad person, but I don't want to confess my emotions, I am bad at that and every time I do I cry and I can't cry at school, at least not in front of the principal. Wait. Is this going to mean bad grades? AAHHH I'm panicking, I need River, she helps me keep my cool.

All of a sudden in the middle of my thoughts, my mom comes. "Harper. Harper! Come on, let's go home, you've had a rough day." We get in the car and start driving.
