Crime Of Love

2) Troubled-Courage ..

Kiona

Monday, 9:00Am

Maybe, just maybe I handled last Friday a little different than i should have.  Over the weekend, I gained a little courage.  I don't know how, and I don't know why.  I just did.

I walk into my first block and sit down at my desk.  As soon as I see the “cool” kids walk in, I smirk.  I'm just waiting for someone to say something to me.  I know they will, everyone believes that I am weak... they will soon see that i am not. 

--------- 10 Mins Later

“Kiona what you over there doing?” I hear someone say, I look up and guess who it is.. Jackass of the year.

Letting out a petty-filled chuckle I respond “my fucking work genius, what does it look like?”

He laughs.
"Oh, somebody got balls over the weekend?”

I let out an obnoxious laugh.  "Yeah, well.. my “balls” didn't drop until over the weekend.. I take it... yours.... still haven't?”  I smile. 

I hear nothing other than the unexpected laughter from his “friends.”

5 Mins Into 2nd Block:

“Kiona Mack please report to the front office.”

I sit for a few seconds with obvious confusion.  Grabbing my stuff I hurriedly walk out of the classroom making my way down to the front office. 

After I get in there im told to sit down and wait until the assistant principal calls me in. 

--- 5 Minutes Later.

I'm about 2.5 seconds of walking out of here, its ridiculous. We come in here and have to WAIT.  This is class time im missing.  Well.. I kind of didn't want to be in there but that's besides the point.

Finally, she comes out.  I roll my eyes.

“Ms. Mack, what are you rolling your eyes for?  You're already in enough trouble.”

Using her index and middle finger she motions for me to follow her into her office. 

ME?  Trouble?  For what?!

+ In The Office 

If there is anything that I have learned, its don't say anything to this bitch unless spoken to.

She rests her elbows on the table and begins talking.
“So Ms.  Mack, I hear that you exchanged words with a student in your first block?”
...

I say nothing.  Sitting there with a blank expression on my face is irritating her.  Its kind of amusing. 

“So are you going to answer?”
“Well,-”
She cuts me off. “Without the attitude.”

Nobody was going to get a fucking attitude.  You asked a question and I open my mouth to answer and you automatically assume attitude?  Fucking bitch.

“May I please explain?”
“As you wish.” She says.

“He bothered me first.  And I was tired.”

“Well you should've came to me.” She says with blank emotion.

Think about what you say before you say it, Kiona. 

I reply "Ok."

She sits up.  “Ok?  Thats all you have to say? Ok well you can OK on your way out the door.  You're suspended.”

This stupid bitch.. I didn't even do anything.
