School has been the worst so far. The teachers were shit and I had a gut feeling they were giving every class I was in more homework. Why? Because they're always complaining about my behavior. It's been a month and my parents are already done with the various calls I've received from the school. They should've known from my records in the first damn place.

"Ms. Lidian could you please read us a passage of the article," Mrs. Georgina asked loudly in front of the class. Shit. I was dozing off the whole time. What is the article even about? Whales? Monsters? I looked behind me and gave Kevin a look of hope. He stuck his tongue out and hide his paper with his arms. A big pussy I tell you.

"No Mrs. Georgina, I can not read you that passage" I answered smiling kicking my feet back and forth under my chair. Honestly, if this class wasn't so depressing I would have read the passage. She cleared her throat another time and repeated her request.

"Mrs. Georgina, you asked if I could read the passage. I can NOT read the passage" I replied slowly and more loudly to get it through those rotting ears of hers. She glared at me and stood right in front of my desk.

"Why is that Irene?" She snarled using my actual name. So she does know me.

"Because I can't stop dreaming about ditching this class and heading out for a quick bite. While we're at it, wouldn't you like something Mrs. Georgina" I replied as kindly as I could "Maybe a new husband, I don't know? A better boob job?" I asked shrugging my shoulders and looking at the saggy milk bags her blouse failed to hold up. Her papers soon slammed onto my desk startling me. Not really, just have to seem like I am human.

"Principle's office now!" She demanded to point at the door. I looked at her finger and pretended to be confused. "Oh, you know exactly where that is, you rascal" She cried lifting me up from the collar. I gasped.

"And who gave you the right to touch me, you old hag" I mocked crossing my arms together. I could hear Kevin's snicker from behind me making me slam Mrs. Georgina's papers onto his desk, "This is racist!" I shouted reviving collective laughs from my classmates. What's so funny about racism?

"Out now, Irene. You are causing a scene" She tried saying in a calm way. Oh no she did not. Cause a scene my ass.

"Can I take someone with me?" I asked leaning against the wooden desk. She shook her head as in no and grabbed my arm harshly forcing me in the direction of the door. The door opened and I was placed outside. From the slits of the curtain, I could see Kevin staring at me. I made eye contact with him and made a gun with my hand. I placed it to my head and acted as if I was just shot.

I laughed at his reaction when he rolled his eyes. I guess I was surprised for real when I caught him mouth to me the word hot. I'm starting to think I'm doing something right now.

I forget about the principles office and leave the school to go get me and Kevin taco bell.
