Teachers

"Okay class I'll see you all tomorrow!" You waved goodbye to all the nursery kids you handled, which were now going out of the door like a stampede.

"Oh and don't forget to show your parents your drawings!" Once you felt like everyone was out, you decided to go out of the classroom. Bringing all of your stuff and turned off the lights while closing the door.

You sighed as you ran your hands through your hair.

Being a teacher of 25 nursery students was hard. One, because they were only 3-5 year olds, and Two, because they were actually children.

But overall, being a nursery teacher wasn't so bad, because your students teach you things that would mean so much to other people. They were all little angels that touched and warmed your heart.

You sighed again as you opened the faculty room's door. The faculty room was filled with teachers, either talking or working. You briskly went to your table since you were carrying a lot of papers in your bag. 20% of the papers were for your work, and the other 80% were your students' artwork and letters.

"Woah, what is in that bag of yours?" You heard a familiar voice coming towards you, "Oh, y'know the usual." You said, fixing your table and putting things in the proper place.

"I told you to just throw them out didn't I?" Once you finished fixing everything you glared at your best friend, Keith. "I can't afford myself to throw these pieces of artwork!" Keith's eyes widened at your sudden change of attitude.

You sighed and you ran your finger through your hair again, "Ugh, I'm sorry for snapping at you okay? I'm just stressed and tired is all.." Keith gulped the rest of his coffee drink, "But you're always usually happy when it comes to the kids."

"Just, a kid of mine had a rough day."

"And that affected you?" You looked at him with tired eyes, "Yes, I want to talk to his parents as soon as possible." You were about to pick up the phone next to you but you hesitated. When it comes to times like these, when the parents hurt your students in any way or form, they would receive a call from you.

And when they did, the entire faculty would run out of the room because of your insults and shouts to the parents. The entire faculty was low-key scared of you, but they would still try their best to be friends with you.

They just won't try to get on your bad side.

You gave out another sigh as you let your hand fall down to your sides. Keith hasn't seen this attitude of yours for a very long time. You would always be happy and cheerful when you go in and out of the school.

Guess the kid's story hit you hard.

Keith looked at the clock, it was 12:01PM. He looked back at you, seeing your stressed out state.

"Hey, you still have classes later with a different students right?" He pointed out, "Yeah." You looked at your schedule, then looking back at him, trying to see where this is going.

"Well, what if we switch sides?" You gave him a look that said 'confusion' all over it, "what?" You chuckled

"What if we switch classes for a day?" You widened your eyes, "what?!" The faculty looked at you. You coughed as you waved your hand, telling them to go back to what they were doing

"wha- wha- wha-- I can't handle high school students! They're all probably emo and or kissing right now!" You panicked, " Don't worry they won't kiss in class." Keith chuckled

"Yeah, but you can't handle nursery kids!!" You stated.

"You're right, but you need to take a break from taking care of nursery children." He put his hands on your shoulders making you turn to face him.
